U.S. PRESIDENT GEORGE W. BUSH WARNED NORTH KOREA ON WEDNESDAY AGAINST TEST-FIRING A LONG-RANGE MISSILE, REUTERS REPORTED. BUSH, SPEAKING IN VIENNA AFTER TALKS WITH EU LEADERS, SAID NORTH KOREA MUST ABIDE BY INTERNATIONAL MISSILE TEST AGREEMENTS. "NORTH KOREANS HAVE MADE AGREEMENTS WITH US IN THE PAST AND WE EXPECT THEM TO KEEP THEIR AGREEMENTS," BUSH SAID. "FOR EXAMPLE AGREEMENTS ON TEST LAUNCHES -- WE THINK IT WOULD BE IN THE WORLD'S INTEREST TO KNOW WHAT THEY'RE TESTING, WHAT THEY INTEND TO DO ON THEIR TEST," HE TOLD REPORTERS. WASHINGTON SAYS THERE IS EVIDENCE NORTH KOREA MIGHT TEST-FIRE ITS TAEPODONG-2 LONG-RANGE MISSILE AND HAS ACTIVATED A GROUND-BASED INTERCEPTOR MISSILE-DEFENCE SYSTEM IN CASE PYONGYANG GOES AHEAD WITH A LAUNCH.
