Such a scenario is highly likely, said South Korean Defense Minister Kim Yong-hyun.
South Korean Defense Minister Kim Yong-hyun said the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK) may send its military to Ukraine in support of Russia. This was reported by The Korea Times.
In his speech to lawmakers at the parliamentary hearings, the minister recalled that Russia and the DPRK signed a mutual agreement similar to a military alliance.
“Since Russia and North Korea have signed a mutual agreement similar to a military alliance, the possibility of such a deployment (sending troops to Ukraine – ed.) is very likely,” said Kim Yong Hyun.
He added that the recent report about the death of North Korean soldiers in the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine is probably “true.”
Commenting on the statement of the Minister of Defense, the head of the Center for Countering Disinformation, Andrei Kovalenko, noted that the DPRK has already sent a limited number of its military, mainly engineers, to Ukraine to monitor the quality and use of weapons of Pyongyang. of Russian terrorists.
“Some died that the ammunition and KN23 ballistic missiles themselves were almost of low quality, which the military reported to Kim,” Kovalenko said.
Let’s remember that the media wrote that a missile strike on the occupied territory near Donetsk on October 3 killed more than 20 occupiers, including six officers from North Korea who came for negotiations with their “colleagues” in Russia. In addition, three North Korean soldiers were wounded.
