North Korea troops fighting with Russia in Ukraine is 'rubbish', says Belarus leader | BBC News

One of Russia's allies, the Belarusian leader, Alexander Lukashenko, said claims that North Korea had sent troops to fight alongside Russia in Ukraine were “rubbish”.

Lukashenko told the BBC’s Russia Editor, Steve Rosenberg, that involving North Koreans on the front lines would be a step towards escalating the conflict.

Belarus has played a part in Russia’s war. In February 2022 Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine was launched, partly, from Belarusian territory.

Russians have literally filmed them training and collecting equipment in halls. Why are they still denying it

If Russia is strong enough..why can't they fight on their own?

[nabarunghoshal]

Russia recruits 30, 000 personnels in its army per month. And it needs 3, 000 or 10, 000 North Korean men to train in Russia for fighting against Ukraine??😂😂😂

When the soldiers are as big as their guns they really don't look like "much of a danger" anyways...

[urbestboy]

if it is so obvious.. why is he still saying it’s rubbish?

[mikeceebo]

Like anybody cares what Lukashenko, or for that matter Putin, have to say about this matter.

By training North Korean 🇰🇵 troops to help the Russian army in Ukraine 🇺🇦, Russia has violated multiple UN resolutions that Russia and China helped to pass.
