UNITED NATIONS - U.N. Security Council members have agreed to adopt a resolution condemning North Korean missile tests, after agreeing on a compromise to avoid a Chinese veto, council diplomats said.
U.N. ambassadors from Britain, France and the United States all said they expected the resolution to be adopted Saturday afternoon.
The council had split over whether the resolution should be adopted under Chapter 7 of the U.N. Charter, which allows for military enforcement.
After China threatened to veto any mention of Chapter 7, Britain and France offered language that would remove any reference to it, diplomats said.
The council has struggled for days over how best to respond to the July 5 missile launches, which provoked an international outcry.
