US Secretary of State John Kerry, South Korean Foreign Minister Yun Byung-se, and Japanese Foreign Minister Fumio Kishida set to meet at the UN General Assembly in New York this week to discuss unified sanctions on North Korea's recent nuclear test.

Kerry stressed out the commitment of the U.S. to the security of South Korea and Japan, and would not be reluctant in 'rolling back the provocative and reckless behavior of the North.'

According to reports from International Business Times, Kerry stated that Kim Jong-un, supreme leader of North Korea, is a reckless dictator and that the U.S. and other countries in the world would make it clear to him that all he is doing is depriving his people of economic opportunities.

He added that the global community will not pull back from their obligations.

The recent nuclear test was North Korea's fifth and it has been largely criticized as it reportedly causes unrest in global and international security.

According to reports, the multiple UN resolutions that prohibits the North's ballistic missile and nuclear programs have been flagrantly disregarded and thus caused a calling for a stronger international pressure.

South Korean Foreign Minister Yun said in a statement, "Our message today is crystal clear - No. 1, North Korea cannot continue to deride the Security Council and the United Nations. The Security Council must swiftly adopt a robust new sanctions resolution and prove its credibility and authority."

"No. 2, Kim Jong Un and North Korean regime cannot get away with all their misbehavior and provocations." 

"No. 3, North Korea cannot prevail over the international communities including South Korea, United States and Japan."

"As the key stakeholders in this nuclear conundrum, the three of us will continue to muster the collective will of the international community to this end."

North Korea has conducted a total of five nuclear tests - in 2006, 2009, 2013 and twice in 2016.
