'Concern to the World': Trump Administration Condemns China After Missile Launch The recent test launch of a long range ballistic missile by China has sent shockwaves through the international community.
The missile, reportedly a JL 2 or JL 3 intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM), was launched from a submarine off the coast of China and crossed over the Philippines before landing near Nauru in the southern Pacific Ocean.
The Trump administration's condemnation of China's actions is consistent with its long standing criticism of Beijing's opaque nuclear buildup.
