China-Russia unite against US missile deployment in Korean peninsula

Russia and China have agreed that the development of North Korea's nuclear program should not be used as an excuse for deploying elements of U.S. global anti-missile system on the Korean peninsula.

In a joint press conference, the Foreign Ministers of the two countries said, Moscow and Beijing also favor measures that will counter North Korea's nuclear program, but at the same time not hamper a political settlement in the region.
