Russia: Putin holds Security Council meeting as delegation returns from Pyongyang

Russia: Putin holds Security Council meeting as delegation returns from Pyongyang Russian President Vladimir Putin held a meeting of the Russian Security Council in moscow, Friday, after a Russian delegation visited Pyongyang for talks with the North Korean leadership. According to the Russian delegation members, the North Koreans "are ready to talk" on the condition that the international community recognises them as a nuclear power. According to Vitaly Pashin, a member of the Russian delegation, Pyongyang is open to negotiations with Washington "under parity terms" with Russia’s participation as a third party.

Several US media outlets to be banned from State Duma events - Zakharova Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova stated that up to ten US media outlets will be banned from visiting the lower house of Russian parliament, speaking in a meeting of the State Duma's Standing Committee on Rules in Moscow on Monday. "I would like to emphasise we in no case deprive those US media representatives of the accreditation to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. They are able to freely continue working as journalists in the Russian Federation," Zakharova noted. Zakharova's statement comes shortly after the US Congress withdrew RT America's accreditation on Capitol Hill. The spokesperson confirmed that Moscow's retaliatory measure would only apply to "those media which are funded by US Department of State and BBG." However, she refrained from naming the media organisations, saying instead, ''Let it be a surprise."
