Over in Geneva.

South Korea has urged North Korea to abandon its nuclear ambitions and return to denuclearization talks.

Speaking at the Conference on Disarmament on Monday, Second Vice Foreign Minister Kang In-sun condemned Pyongyang for violating multiple UN Security Council resolutions.

She also criticized the regime for supplying weapons and ballistic missiles to Russia while deploying over 11-thousand troops to help its war in Ukraine.

Kang also expressed concern over the weakening of global disarmament norms amid Russia's prolonged war in Ukraine, calling on nuclear powers to strengthen trust and transparency through dialogue.
