Defence Secretary Leon Panetta said he has seen no outward sign that North Korea will follow through soon on its plan to conduct a test. But that does not mean preparations are not under way.
"They have the capability, frankly, to conduct these tests in a way that make it very difficult to determine whether or not they are doing it,'' Panetta told reporters.
He added that the US administration was "prepared to deal with any kind of provocation from the North Koreans".
