title: North Korea warns U.S. of 'greatest pain', rejects sanctions
text: GENEVA (Reuters) - North Korea on Tuesday rejected a U.N. Security Council resolution imposing tougher sanctions and said the United States would soon face the  greatest pain  it had ever experienced. The Security Council unanimously stepped up sanctions against North Korea on Monday over the country s sixth and most powerful nuclear test, imposing a ban on its textile exports and capping imports of crude oil.  My delegation condemns in the strongest terms and categorically rejects the latest illegal and unlawful U.N. Security Council resolution,  Pyongyang s ambassador, Han Tae Song, told the U.N.-sponsored Conference on Disarmament in Geneva. Han accused the U.S. administration of being  fired up for political, economic, and military confrontation,  and of being   obsessed with the wild game of reversing the DPRK s development of nuclear force which has already reached the completion phase . North Korea was condemned globally for its latest nuclear test on Sept. 3, which it said was of an advanced hydrogen bomb. The Democratic People s Republic of Korea (DPRK) is  ready to use a form of ultimate means , Han said without elaborating.  The forthcoming measures by DPRK will make the U.S. suffer the greatest pain it ever experienced in its history,  he said. U.S. disarmament ambassador Robert Wood took the floor to say that the Security Council resolution  frankly sent a very clear and unambiguous message to the regime that the international community is tired, is no longer willing to put up provocative behavior from this regime .  My hope is the regime will hear the message loud and clear and it will choose a different path,  Wood said.  We call on all countries to vigorously implement these new sanctions and all other existing sanctions,  he added.
