South Korea's Foreign Minister Cho Tae-yul said on Saturday that military cooperation between North Korea and Russia must stop, and North Korea should not be rewarded for its wrongdoings in the course of bringing about the end of the war in Ukraine.

Cho also said it is important for South Korea, Japan and China to faithfully carry out UN sanctions against North Korea, and to put efforts into stopping North Korean provocations and bring about its complete denuclearization.

Cho is meeting his Chinese and Japanese counterparts in Tokyo, in the first such trilateral talks since 2023.

Germany has arrested three Ukrainian nationals on suspicion of foreign agent activity linked to the shipment of parcels containing explosive devices, prosecutors said on Wednesday.

The suspects are believed to have been in contact with individuals working for Russian state institutions, Reuters quoted federal prosecutors as saying in a statement.

Two of the men, identified in line with German privacy laws only as Vladyslav T. and Daniil B., were arrested over the weekend in Germany. Another, identified as Yevhen B., was arrested on Tuesday in Switzerland.

"The defendants are strongly suspected of acting as agents for the purpose of sabotage," the statement said, accusing them of agreeing to commit serious arson and procure explosives.

German authorities warned businesses in August last year that packages containing incendiary devices had caught fire en route across Europe.

Logistics firm DHL took measures to protect its network following several fires at a warehouse in Leipzig.
