Russia Friday urged an end to a "vicious circle" on North Korea, claiming tough U.S. reactions to nuclear tests by Pyongyang escalate tensions on the peninsula.
"We suggest looking at the situation in a multi-dimensional way in order to break the vicious circle of tensions," Russian deputy foreign minister Igor Morgulov told Japan's JiJi Press in an interview posted on the ministry's site Friday.
He said that currently "in response to North Korean nuclear missile 'experiments', the United States and its allies take steps to bolster exercises and other military activity, which in turn pushes Pyongyang to new provocative actions."
The comments came out as U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, speaking in Seoul, said that U.S. military action was an option "on the table" after insisting two decades of policies to denuclearize North Korea had failed.
