Russia's foreign ministry on Tuesday claimed success in having revised what it claimed had initially been a UNSC sanctions resolution that had risked "disastrous" humanitarian consequences for North Korea.
"Through intensive work with China to coordinate the resolution text, [Russia] has succeeded in revising the U.S.'s super-hard resolution, which focused on defoliating North Korea's economy and risked catastrophic humanitarian influence on North Korean," the ministry said, in comments carried by Russia's TASS and South Korea's Yonhap.
