“We have the opportunity to get Pyongyang’s assessment of what is happening, firsthand, and not in the presentation. I can tell you that these estimates confirm our feeling that North Korea is really ready to fulfill its part of the agreements that are worked out both in the Six and on the bilateral track between North Korea and the USA, ”TASS quoted him as saying.

Kosachev also said that the DPRK is ready to follow the path of denuclearization under conditions of lowering the military tension of the Korean Peninsula, as well as reducing sanctions pressure on the country.

In early October, the US and North Korean delegations began negotiations on the denuclearization of North Korea in Stockholm.

On October 31, the DPRK announced the conduct of a test firing "of a super-large jet weapon."

In connection with missile launches, the British Foreign Ministry expressed concern.
