South Korea's National Security Council (NSC) said on Thursday North Korea and Russia would "pay a price" if they violate U.N. Security Council resolutions.

The council also said it was taking seriously the two countries' discussions on military cooperation, including the development of intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBM).

While urging Pyongyang and Moscow not to trade weapons, South Korea will work with the United States, Japan and the international community to deal with the situation, the council said in a statement.

"The government said that with any actions that threaten our security by North Korea and Russia violating (U.N.) Security Council resolutions, there will be a price to pay," it said.

I’m sure Russia and North Korea are scared to death of breaching a UN resolution.

Yes, and ICBMs ( as in intercontinental) are a major threat to Seoul…

Stupid article.

IMHO WW3 starts small, in a place like Korea, a small event, then someone tosses a nuke or two, there will be panic for a few days, the retaliation as talks break down, then more and more killing until the world is engulfed in flames.
Pray for Peace in the world.

WWII started with Japan invading Manchuria in 1931.

Russia needs to be kicked off the UN Security Council.

Sounds like Harry Turtledove’s Hot War trilogy, an alternate-history series in which Truman agrees to MacArthur’s recommendation to use nukes during the Korean War. Things do not turn out well.

They should have been kicked off as soon as they seized Eastern Europe unilaterally.

Which is why all ASEAN nations need to go full on nuke production and deployment. Air, land and sea systems. Make the despots compete with free-er and more productive economies until their own economies break that much faster.
