France is warning North Korea not to violate a U.N. resolution by pushing forward with a satellite launch.

The French foreign ministry said in a statement Wednesday that the technology required to launch a satellite is basically the same as ballistic missile technology.

The ministry urged Pyongyang to refrain from any action which could increase tension in the region and to abide by its international obligations.

The statement stressed that U.N. Security Council resolutions 16-95 and 17-18 prohibit North Korea from any activity linked to ballistic missile technology.
