The 15 ASEAN Summit which kicked off in Thailand on Oct 23 has asked North Korea to comply with the UN resolutions completely.
"We urged the DPRK (North Korea) to comply fully with its obligations in accordance with the relevant United Nations Security Council resolutions," Xinhua reported quoting the statement.
The UN Security Council resolution 1874 had issued broader sanctions against North Korea after it conducted nuclear tests on May 25. But the sanctions were rejected by the state. It has also quit the six-party talks which were being held for persuading the state to quit nuclear tests.
"We also urged all concerned parties to return to the six party talks as soon as possible and fully implement their commitments made in previous rounds of dialogue that remains the main mechanism for achieving peace and stability in the Korean Peninsula," the statement added.
Besides North Korea, the US, China, South Korea, Japan and Russia participate in the talks.
