The review of UN sanctions against North Korea should not be associated with imposing preconditions on Pyongyang, he said in an interview. DEA News said Pyotr Ilyichev, director of the international organizations department of the Russian Foreign Ministry.
The diplomat stressed that easing sanctions on North Korea would help restore trust, which has long been weakened by increasing pressure. At the same time, imposing more conditions would alienate North Korea, which remembers well “the dishonest play of the Americans behind the fog of promises, not backed by clear guarantees.”
Ilyichev noted that the lifting of a series of economic sanctions against Pyongyang would accelerate the development of the North Korean national economy and increase the welfare of its residents.
Daniel Kritenbrink, formerly Assistant Secretary of State for East Asian and Pacific Affairs statedWashington will redouble its efforts to contain North Korea and enhance its partnership with Russia.
Former political scientist clarified Behind the scenes of relations between Russia and North Korea.
