TOKYO — U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice worked with Japanese leaders Wednesday to coordinate a tough response to North Korea's nuclear test, even as satellite data indicated the North, which has defiantly called sanctions a declaration of war, could be preparing for another test.
Stepping up a flurry of diplomatic activity aimed at getting Washington's allies behind the same message, Rice was to meet with Japan's defense and foreign ministers on Wednesday and Prime Minister Shinzo Abe on Thursday.

The U.S. nuclear envoy, Assistant U.S. Secretary of State Christopher Hill, also arrived in Tokyo on Wednesday. Earlier in the day, in Seoul, he stressed that the international community should make the North pay a "high price" for its "reckless behavior."

Hill told reporters in Seoul he also wanted to talk to South Korean officials about satellite data indicating the North may be getting ready for a second nuclear test. A senior South Korean official, however, told foreign journalists that despite signs of a test, it was unlikely to happen immediately.
Japan is already firmly behind sanctions.
Tokyo is expected to offer naval backup for U.S. military searches of North Korean vessels. Tokyo also plans to expand its sanctions against the North by banning the export of automobiles, liquor and cigarettes to the impoverished regime, the Yomiuri newspaper reported, quoting unidentified officials.
Japan will classify those exports as luxury items banned under U.N. Security Council sanctions passed over the weekend, the report said. Cars and cigarettes account for 13 percent of Japan's total exports to North Korea, the newspaper said.
A Japanese defense spokesman said the issue of Japan's help with U.S. searches of North Korean ships would be discussed during Rice's visit, but declined to comment on other details of the report. The spokesman was commenting on condition of anonymity according to his department's policy.

Japan last Friday banned North Korean ships and most trade with the communist country under its own sanctions. Participation in military searches of vessels in international seas, however, is a sensitive issue due to Japan's pacifist constitution, which prohibits its armed forces from offensive actions abroad.
So far, the North has been defiant.
North Korea blasted U.N. sanctions Tuesday aimed at punishing the country for its atomic test on Oct. 9, saying the measures were a declaration of war and that the nation wouldn't cave in to such pressure now that it's a nuclear weapons power.
