MANILA, Aug 7 (Reuters) - U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson on Monday said a new U.N. resolution over North Korea said parties involved in tensions on the Korean peninsula can have dialogue when conditions are right.

Tillerson, speaking on the sidelines of a regional security meeting in Manila, said the execution and implementation of new U.N. sanctions would be carefully watched and the resolution sends a strong message that North Korea needs to understand what the world expects of it.

He also said Russia and China support for sanctions shows the international community expects them to help North Korea accept realities.
