Russian Ambassador to North Korea Alexander Matsegora said in an interview with RT that Russia, China and North Korea are the object of Washington’s provocative aspirations. “The Americans are ready to balance on the brink of an armed conflict, as long as their strategic interests here are ensured,” the diplomat said.
Earlier, the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced the escalation of tension on the Korean Peninsula due to the actions of the United States and its allies. The ambassador noted that a peaceful environment, strengthening mutual trust and understanding, and developing economic cooperation and exchanges between countries in the region do not meet the interests of Washington.
