Russia's ambassador to China Sergey Razov said on Wednesday that the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) should issue "some response" on the test-firing of missiles by the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK).

Razov made his remarks in a press conference at Russia's press center in Beijing, noting that the UNSC's response should be comprehensive, prudent and calm, instead of threatening the third party.

He said Russia is worried about the test-firing, which does not comply with the expectations of the international community.

He said the issue should be solved in the framework of the six-party talks. "We hope that the parties concerned take a sober and cautious attitude toward this issue, and we also hope the six-party talks can be resumed as soon as possible," he said.

Chinese President Hu Jintao earlier expressed China's attitude toward this issue. He said China opposes any action that may worsen the situation on the Korean Peninsula, and hopes all relevant parties can act in a way conducive to the stability of the peninsula.
