Russian President Vladimir Putin has criticized North Korea’s continuous violation of UN Security Council resolutions but blasted the increasing war rhetoric towards the country. 

“We are witnesses to another confrontational spiral over North Korea’s missile and nuclear program,” Putin said at a credentials presentation ceremony attended by a group of foreign ambassadors on Tuesday.

“We condemn Pyongyang’s decisions made in violation of the UN Security Council resolutions, but fanning military rhetoric is a harmful way and it leads nowhere,” Putin said.

“All parties should display restraint and seek a peace solution,” Putin said.

He is certain that “in the modern world conflicts must be resolved in accordance with many extremely sensitive factors through the search for a compromise,” he said.
