"There is no need to establish a new international forum to address the situation on the Korean Peninsula," Sergei Lavrov told reporters.
The North announced earlier on Tuesday that it was pulling out of the international talks and said it had restarted its nuclear program in response to a UN Security Council statement condemning its April 5 rocket launch.
Lavrov was upbeat about prospects for the negotiations, running since 2003, to resume soon and urged all sides to fulfill their obligations in the denuclearization deal with Pyongyang.
"Although emotions usually run high in such situations, the six-party talks will resume in the near future," Lavrov said.
The Security Council statement ordered the enforcement of existing sanctions against the North and a review of a list of commodities and individuals subject to restrictions.
Many countries suspect North Korea tested a long-range missile on April 5. Pyongyang said it put a satellite into orbit.
Pyongyang said it would restore its Yongbyon nuclear reactor, which was partially disabled in 2008 under an agreement with South Korea, China, Japan, Russia and the United States in exchange for aid and diplomatic incentives.
