The reported nuclear test is "very, very worrying," EU external relations commissioner Benita Ferrero-Waldner said Monday.

Major European powers all condemned the nuclear test in strongest terms.

The German government called the test as an "irresponsible provocation" that threatens international stability.

British Prime Minister Gordon Brown denounced the nuclear test on Monday as a "danger to the world" that will undermine peace prospects on the Korean peninsula.

"I condemn North Korea (DPRK)'s nuclear test in the strongest terms as erroneous, misguided and a danger to the world," Brown said in a statement.

"This act will undermine prospects for peace on the Korean peninsula and will do nothing for North Korea (DPRK)'s security," he said.

The French government Monday called on Pyongyang to "refrain from any new provocation."

In a statement issued by the Foreign Ministry, the French government called on the DPRK "to resume discussions within the Group of Six with the aim of the complete, irreversible and verifiable dismantling of its nuclear program."

The DPRK said on Monday it successfully conducted "one more" underground nuclear test earlier in the day.
