Vasily Nebenzya, Permanent Representative of Russia to the UN. File photoUN, Sep 6 Russian Permanent Representative to the UN Vasily Nebenzya called unsubstantiated claims about Russia's acquisition of ammunition from North Korea a fake. .The New York Times, citing declassified US intelligence data, previously reported that the Russian Federation allegedly buys millions of artillery shells and missiles from North Korea. According to the publication, this indicates that the sanctions «seriously limited supply chains and forced Moscow to turn to rogue countries for military supplies.» These statements were later repeated by the Pentagon. Russian experts considered this information to be untrue. Thus, according to Alexei Fenenko, Associate Professor of the Faculty of World Politics at Lomonosov Moscow State University, which he expressed to RIA Novosti, such reports from the American press only cause laughter and are «launched» in order to create a false impression of the state of Russia.
