The foreign Ministry said that Moscow has developed a plan to address the problem of North Korea
MOSCOW, 27 Jun — RIA Novosti. Moscow has developed a “road map” solution to the problem of North Korea ready to discuss it with partners, said RIA Novosti Deputy foreign Minister Igor Morgulov.
“In order to avoid such a scenario we have developed and are ready to discuss with partners a set of practical measures, a kind of road map, whose ultimate goal is the formation in North-East Asia of lasting peace mechanism with the simultaneous decision of problems of the Peninsula, including its denuclearisation,” said Morgulov.
In early June, the UN Security Council unanimously adopted a resolution expanding sanctions against North Korea in connection with the ongoing rocket launches. The list includes several individuals and four legal entities: missile troops, trading companies and a Bank. The last launch was conducted on June 9, when North Korea tested several anti-ship cruise missiles. The previous test took place on 29 may, was held the launch of a ballistic missile with a homing system to intercept enemy missiles.
The six-party talks on the denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula began in August 2003. They were attended by senior diplomats from Russia, North Korea, South Korea, USA, China and Japan. As a result, the DPRK not only froze its nuclear programme, but has also begun to dismantle the reactor at the experimental center in Yongbyon. However, since 2008, the dialogue has virtually stalled after the U.S. and North Korea agree on how to verify Pyongyang presented a list of its nuclear programs, and Japan and South Korea refused to meet their obligations to supply North Koreans fuel for conventional power plants in return for giving up its nuclear program.
