(multimedia) U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton warned on Tuesday (April 11) that history points to “additional provocations” from North Korea after its expected rocket launch this week, suggesting isolated Pyongyang feared closer relations with the outside world. In a wide-ranging speech on U.S. policy toward the Asia-Pacific region, Clinton said North Korea’s decision to launch weeks after it agreed to re-engage in disarmament talks “raises questions about Pyongyang’s seriousness in saying that it desires to improve relations with us and its neighbors.”
