US authorities are using all their means to prevent the transfer of weapons from North Korea to Russia.
North Korea sends ammunition to Russia through the Middle East and African countries. This was announced on Wednesday, November 2, by US State Department spokesman Ned Price.
He noted that the US authorities plan to use all their capabilities to prevent the transfer of weapons from North Korea to Russia.
“Just as we take every opportunity and will use every opportunity to counter Iran’s arms transfers to Russia, we will do the same regarding arms transfers from the DPRK to Russia. There are sanctions mechanisms in place , we will look at additional tools and power , that may be involved,” Price said.
He also added that the United States demands that all countries that have the opportunity to influence Pyongyang’s actions have an impact on the DPRK.
Earlier, the White House said that North Korea was secretly supplying artillery shells to Russia amid a shortage of ammunition in the aggressor country. At the same time, the DPRK is hiding the true destination of ammunition supplies.
Recall that The New York Times, citing US declassified data intelligence, reported that Russia “is desperate” to buy millions of shells and missiles from North Korea.
The Office of the President then announced that Ukraine would demilitarize the DPRK following Russia.
