WASHINGTON (Sputnik) — Pyongyang’s recent nuclear test requires from the US to develop a common strategy with China and Russia to prevent possible reciprocal US military attack against North Korea, US Senator Ben Cardin said in an interview on Tuesday.
"We’ve got to find a common agenda working with China and maybe Russia that can tone down this crisis," Cardin told MSNBC. "What we want to do — and I think China and Russia probably agree with this… to find, at least explore, a common agenda on diplomacy."
Earlier this week, Pyongyang successfully tested a hydrogen bomb that could be loaded on the warhead of an intercontinental ballistic missile, prompting global condemnation.
