There will be no new restrictions for Ukraine on the use of American weapons against North Korean troops if they engage in combat against Ukrainian forces.
This was stated by Deputy Pentagon Press Secretary Sabrina Singh on Monday, Voice of America reports.
She said that North Korean troops were “in all likelihood” moving towards Kursk.
We estimate that about 10,000 are moving to study in eastern Russia, which is about to strengthen Russian forces,” she said. “We are increasingly concerned about Russia’s intention to use these soldiers in combat or in support of military operations against Ukrainian troops in the Kursk region of Russia, near the border with Ukraine.
When asked how the US President assesses the presence of North Korean troops in Russia, Joseph Biden said:
This is very dangerous, very dangerous.
Biden also mentioned a media report that Kamala’s opponent Harris Trump allegedly spoke with Putin after leaving the White House.
NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte said he could officially confirm the presence of North Korean soldiers in the Kursk region of Russia.
Background
On October 22, President Vladimir Zelensky announced that he had received information about Russia’s training of two units from the North Korean military. Perhaps these will be two brigades of 6 thousand people each. Before this, the North Korean military were removed from the military unit of the 127th Motorized Rifle Division of the Russian Federation in the village of Sergeevka, Primorsky Territory.
Already on October 24, the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense confirmed the arrival of the first DPRK units in the Kursk region. Ukrainian intelligence believes that as early as October 27-28, the North Korean military will be used in combat zones against Ukraine.
Russian dictator Vladimir Putin did not deny the presence of the DPRK military in Russia, referring to the partnership agreement between the Russian Federation and North Korea. According to him, how countries will implement the points of this agreement is our business.
Against this background, South Korean media wrote that South Korea may consider transferring offensive weapons to Ukraine and even send its personnel to interrogate prisoners from the DPRK.
