Russia’s Lavrov says wrong to use North Korea to militarize NE Asia

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said on Friday it was wrong of the United States to use the threat of an attack by North Korea to deploy a THAAD anti-missile system in South Korea.

“It is inadmissible to use this situation as a pretext for massive militarization of northeast Asia and deployment of another position area for U.S. global missile defense there,” Lavrov told the United Nations General Assembly.
