The harsh language that Reuters quotes ("This is an unprecedented threat" and the like) comes from Chinese media sources, not the embassy. The Korean and English versions of the embassy's site make no reference to the test, but the Chinese version has a fairly bland statement from the Foreign Ministry expressing "firm opposition" to the test, requesting that NK return to the six-party talks, work towards the denuclearization of the peninsula, etc. etc. etc. “I do not see any of this language on their page.”
