UNITED NATIONS (Reuters) - Russia's military interaction with North Korea (DPRK) does not violate international law, Russia's U.N. Ambassador Vassily Nebenzia told the Security Council on Wednesday.

"I would like to underscore that the Russian interaction with DPRK in the military and other areas is in line with international law and is not a violation of it. It's not aimed against third countries," Nebenzia said.
