                                                                               7 March 2013




               Resolution 2094 (2013)
               Adopted by the Security Council at its 6932nd meeting, on
               7 March 2013

                    The Security Council,
                     Recalling its previous relevant resolutions, including resolution 825 (1993),
               resolution 1540 (2004), resolution 1695 (2006), resolution 1718 (2006), resolution
               1874 (2009), resolution 1887 (2009) and resolution 2087 (2013), as well as the
               statements of its President of 6 October 2006 (S/PRST/2006/41), 13 April 2009
               (S/PRST/2009/7) and 16 April 2012 (S/PRST/2012/13),
                    Reaffirming that proliferation of nuclear, chemical and biological weapons, as
               well as their means of delivery, constitutes a threat to international peace and
               security,
                    Underlining once again the importance that the DPRK respond to other
               security and humanitarian concerns of the international community,
                     Expressing the gravest concern at the nuclear test conducted by the Democratic
               People’s Republic of Korea (“the DPRK”) on 12 February 2013 (local time) in
               violation of resolutions 1718 (2006), 1874 (2009) and resolution 2087 (2013), and at
               the challenge such a test constitutes to the Treaty on Non-Proliferation of Nuclear
               Weapons (“the NPT”) and to international efforts aimed at strengthening the global
               regime of non-proliferation of nuclear weapons, and the danger it poses to peace and
               stability in the region and beyond,
                    Concerned that the DPRK is abusing the privileges and immunities accorded
               under the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic and Consular Relations,
                     Welcoming the Financial Action Task Force’s (FATF) new Recommendation 7
               on targeted financial sanctions related to proliferation, and urging Member States to
               apply FATF’s Interpretative Note to Recommendation 7 and related guidance papers
               for effective implementation of targeted financial sanctions related to proliferation,
                    Expressing its gravest concern that the DPRK’s ongoing nuclear and ballistic
               missile-related activities have further generated increased tension in the region and
               beyond, and determining that there continues to exist a clear threat to international
               peace and security,
                   Acting under Chapter VII of the Charter of the United Nations, and taking
               measures under its Article 41,
