Moscow – Russia has denounced North Korea’s nuclear test as a clear contravention of UN Security Council resolutions.
The Russian Foreign Ministry appealed in a statement Monday for the leadership of the Communist state to follow UN rulings and to act responsibly and contribute to stability in the region.
The statement added that the “nuclear problem” on the Korean peninsula should be resolved through the framework of the six-party talks.
Russia however also warned other members of the Security Council not to react to the nuclear test with “hysteria.”(dpa)
