Russia and China said on Friday they would oppose any foreign military intervention in North Korea over its recent nuclear test.
The two countries’ foreign ministers condemned last week’s test but said any action against North Korea had to be agreed at the United Nations, where Russia and China have the right of veto as permanent members of the Security Council.
Lavrov said China and Russia had agreed that it was “vitally important not to … allow the situation to be used as a pretext for military intervention.”
North Korea’s latest test, its third since 2006, prompted warnings from Washington and others that more sanctions would be imposed on the isolated state.
