South Korean Foreign Minister, Cho Tae-yul said military cooperation between North Korea and Russia must stop.
The foreign minister stated this on Saturday, adding that North Korea should not be rewarded for its wrongdoings in the course of bringing about the end of the war in Ukraine.
According to him, it was important for South Korea, Japan and China to faithfully carry out UN sanctions against North Korea.
Cho further said that the three countries should put efforts into stopping North Korean provocations and bring about its complete denuclearisation.
Cho is said to be meeting his Chinese and Japanese counterparts in Tokyo, in the first such trilateral talks since 2023.
