Another missile test, carried out by the DPRK, is a challenge for the entire world community, the chairman of the State Duma International Affairs Committee, Leonid Slutsky said. At the same time, it is necessary to continue to look for ways to resume negotiations and not to allow a force scenario, he urged.
The parliamentarian recalled that the new missile test of the DPRK was conducted "just three days after the adoption of a new UN Security Council resolution tightening sanctions against Pyongyang," stating that this is "definitely a challenge to the world community." "Pyongyang continues a very dangerous and irritating game" he stressed. Slutsky drew attention to the fact that "Russia has never supported neither such provocations, nor a self-proclaimed nuclear status of North Korea."
