BELFAST (Reuters) - U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, reacting to reports of missile launches by North Korea on Monday, said the United States would continue to work toward a nuclear-free Korean peninsula.

She said the United States and its allies were trying to demonstrate to North Korea that the international community would not accept its continuing nuclear programme.

"Our goals remain the same. We intend to work toward a nuclear free Korean peninsula," Clinton told a news conference in Belfast.
