Prime Minister Yoshihiko Noda met with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas on Saturday and shared the view that North Korea's launch of what was believed to be a long-range ballistic missile deserves condemnation.
North Korea's act was extremely regrettable, Noda told Abbas at the prime minister's official residence. He also said it was a clear violation of U.N. Security Council resolutions.
