N. Korea to pay price if it provides weapons to Russia - Sullivan

The US issued a terse warning to North Korea and told Pyongyang it will "pay a price" if it opts to sell arms to Russia, Report informs, citing Anadolu Agency.

"Providing weapons to Russia for use on the battlefield to attack grain silos and the heating infrastructure of major cities as we head into winter to try to conquer territory that belongs to another sovereign nation, this is not going to reflect well on North Korea," National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan told reporters at the White House.

"They will pay a price for this in the international community," he added.

Sullivan said the US has worked in public and behind closed doors to ensure that North Korea knows it should not sell any weapons to Moscow, and "will continue to look for opportunities to dissuade the North Koreans from taking this step."
