US General Says NK Missile Is Threat to Global Security Jung Sung-ki / Korea Times | June 16 2006 The commander of United States ground troops in South Korea said Friday that North Korea's missile activities have a negative effect on not only Northeast Asian security, but also on global peace. Gen. David P. Valcourt, commander of the 8th U.S. Army stationed here also complained that the U.S. military would not be able to maintain its Air Force assets in the country unless an air-to-surface firing range is secured. Valcourt was speaking at a breakfast meeting organized by the Korean-American Association in a hotel in downtown Seoul that was attended by 150 business leaders. A possible North Korean test of a long-range ballistic missile is rattling South Korea, Japan and the United States, all of which have been paying keen attention to the communist country's missile activities for weeks. --------------------------------------------------- Prison Planet.tv: The Premier Multimedia Subscription Package: Download and Share the Truth!
