What the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) has been doing does not deserve international attention it wants to get, US Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton has said.

In an interview aired by ABC's "Good Morning America" on July 20, the top US diplomat admitted that the Obama administration has changed its approach toward Pyongyang in just the last month.
Dismissing international opposition, the DPRK conducted an underground nuclear test on May 25 and since then has fired at least seven ballistic missiles. It also boycotted the six-party talks on its nuclear program.
