Russian Foreign Minister Urges Trump-Kim 'Kindergarten Fight' End

Russia and China have both appealed for an end to the escalating rhetoric between Washington and Pyongyang, and Moscow’s Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov complained that that scrap resembled a “kindergarten fight between children.”


“We have to calm down the hot heads and understand that we do need pauses, that we do need some contacts,” Lavrov told a news conference after his address to the General Assembly.

On the fringes of the world meeting, North Korean Foreign Minister RI Yong-ho told reporters Pyongyang might now consider detonating a hydrogen bomb outside its territory, AFP reported.

“I think that it could be an H-bomb test at an unprecedented level perhaps over the Pacific,” he said — while adding: “It is up to our leader so I do not know well.”
