Foreign Ministry: Russia does not violate international obligations by cooperating with Iran and North Korea. Official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, says Russia is developing mutually beneficial relations with the two countries.

Earlier, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov and Israel's permanent representative to the UN Gilad Erdan exchanged reproaches during a meeting of the Security Council of the world organization on the Palestinian issue. Erdan accused Iran of supplying weapons to Russia, saying that Russia allegedly uses these weapons during the Northeast Military District in Ukraine.
