After UN Ambassador Nikki Haley asked the security council to pass the \u201cstrongest possible\u201d sanctions against North Korea following the isolated nation\u2019s sixth nuclear test which took place over the weekend, Russia President Vladimir Putin has hinted that Russia may – and most likely will – use its Security Council veto power to stop any further sanctions from being implemented.<\/div>\n

\u201cRamping up military hysteria in such conditions is senseless; it\u2019s a dead end,\u201d he added. \u201cIt could lead to a global, planetary catastrophe and a huge loss of human life. There is no other way to solve the North Korean nuclear issue, save that of peaceful dialogue.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
