“We are against any rhetoric regarding the use of such lethal weapons and continue to call for the resumption of negotiations on the peaceful denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula,” RIA Novosti quoted him as saying.
Earlier, North Korean leader Kim Jong-un threatened South Korea with readiness to quickly and accurately mobilize its "nuclear deterrence forces" at any time.
At the same time, Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said that Russia is not playing with the topic of nuclear war.
He noted that the inadmissibility of nuclear war is Russia's principled position.
