According to her, this is indicated by the remark of the head of the South Korean Ministry of Defense about the need to provide “direct military support to the Kyiv regime, including the supply of lethal weapons.”

“We would like to warn Seoul against rash steps that could lead to a complete collapse of once friendly relations with Russia. We emphasize that the accusations against us are unfounded, unsubstantiated, and therefore, in fact, illegal,” Zakharova said.

Earlier, Russian Ambassador to South Korea Georgy Zinoviev said that Seoul does not want Russia to lose in the Northeast Military District.
