State media said this morning it would launch its controversial rocket "soon" as regional powers deployed warships and trained satellites on the communist country to monitor what they suspect will be a long-range missile test. US President Barack Obama warned yesterday that the international community would take action if North Korea went ahead.

國家媒體于今早報道說，他們將“很快”發(fā)射的火箭是一個具有爭議的遠程導彈實驗，以作為其區(qū)域力量來部署軍艦和衛(wèi)星瞄準以監(jiān)視他們所懷疑的共產(chǎn)主義國家 。美國總統(tǒng)巴拉克·奧巴馬于昨日警告說，國際社會將采取行動，如果朝鮮一意孤行。
