“Dangerous”: North Korea sending troops to Ukraine causes alarm worldwide

Members of the United Nations (UN) Security Council expressed alarm on Monday, following South Korea’s spy agency reporting last week that North Korea has shipped 1,500 special forces troops to Russia, in preparation for combat training against Ukraine. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has also accused Pyongyang of preparing to send 10,000 soldiers to Russia and called for a strong international reaction.

“If true, this marks a dangerous and highly concerning development, and an obvious deepening of the DPRK-Russia military relationship. We are consulting with our allies and partners on the implications of such a dramatic move,” deputy U.S. ambassador to the UN Robert Wood said. “Russia cannot sustain its aggression without assistance,” he added.

Meanwhile, South Korea’s defence ministry spokesperson, Jeon Ha-Kyu, said in an earlier Monday briefing that North Korea's involvement is “a violation” of UN resolutions and strongly condemned North Korea's actions. “Our military will take all necessary measures to safeguard the safety of our people,” Wood said.

Both Russia and North Korea have denied arms transfers but have pledged to boost military ties, with Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov describing North Korea as a “close neighbour” and “partner,” and said that it was their “sovereign right” to deepen such relationships.

That's what happens when you piss on international law with no consequences, everybody feel the right to do the same.

Why are there calls for ceasefire in the Middle East but never heard it for Ukraine and Russia?

[Gus-mifv]

Love how US doesn’t talk about theirs and Nato’s intervention 😅

[bradleyw]

oh so its ok for western countries to support their allies but not so for other countries who want to support their allies . interesting concept

[SoBiased]

While the US UK sents troops to help Israel.... That's fair....😂😂

[kazumaa]

Same with the U.S. and other allies. If they stop supplying Ukraine, war would have been long over

[davidthompson]

US nukes in South Korea…..”nothing to see here “

[tylerdurden]

In other breaking news, NK actually sent troops to ukraine 3 months ago and even the news forgot they reported it back then. 🤷🤣

[xiomasanchez]

The UN speaks for Ukrain. Focusing on Russian casualties and ignoring the very high surpassed Ukraine victims

[jukestv]

We live in a strange time for that im certain

[ILDG]

The West: Only we can train and arm your enemy, you cannot do the same against us 😂

Awesome news. Now proxy soldiers in Ukraine drone North Korean soldiers… Ukraine is at war with North Korea. Who is a kind, soft and very reasonable country to deal with, having loads of wealth for its people to enjoy. And Nuclear armed, and not signatory to many anti nuclear war agreements. Remind me who the idiots were that said the longer this war goes on, the better the chances Russia will want to settle and see things our way.. let’s send bails of cash to Zelenskyy? Like attrition ever worked, going back to WW1. Morons. Now you’re playing with the boogie man. The only way to send the North Koreans back home is to send the western mercenaries back home first and cut funding now. Russia has outmaneuvered you. Mercenaries would rather go fight for Israel who pays more anyway…. And North Koreans will forget whatever battles are coming in Ukraine just as fast as Jews will forget the holocaust… on the 10th of never-ever. I hate this news, how do I block it…
