North Korean Soldiers’ $2000 Monthly Wage in Russia? The Reality Behind the Pay #northkorea #ukraine

North Korean soldiers deployed to Russia were promised $2,000 USD in monthly wages, but whether they'll actually see that money is a different story.

Imagine being sent to fight a war and the money being kept by the leader. These people are evil.

$2, 000 per month with a life expectancy of 3 minutes!

Several DPRK Soldiers have already defected. The Ukrainian government reports them as killed in action and hands over their passport. This is to assist them with being able to defect and not have any punishment go to their family back in Korea.

Ironically, being deployed in Ukraine gives them the best odds of escaping NK.

So sad that so many people are at the mercy of their governments who use them & don’t care if they live or die. It’s all a big game of power…when most people just want peace & stability for their families.

[chrishogg]

That monthly pay will be deposited into Dear Leader’s bank account! You can take that to the….. bank

Kim Jung in keeps the money, they get $3 a month

[greabo]

They are not making anything, don't be stupid. The Russians may be paying that to the N Korean government per soldier but the soldiers see none of it.

The more you know about this corrupt world the more disgusting it is😢

I DONT GET IT !!!????... WHY IS IT OKAY FOR RUSSIA TO DEPLOYED NORTH KOREAN TROOPS TO THE FRONTLINE TO FIGHT FOR RUSSIA AND ITS NOT OKAY FOR UKRAINE TO ASK SOLDIER FROM THE NATO, EU AND THE U.S. TO FIGHT FOR UKRAINE.

[JS-jhcy]

They are millionaires in rubles which is worth very little outside Russia

[nil]

And I heard on the news that 90% of their wages go to Kim Jong Un. That sure does not left them much.

Russia pays $2000/month for a DPRK soldier. The soldiers don't get paid $2000!

[edwardbartoneb]

Probably just getting a meal is the major reason why they are fighting in the Russia Ukraine war.

[ChuckGonzalez-vf]

Kim Jung is going to be real fat after getting that paycheck 🍗 🍖

[derptrolling]

Did a Russian soldier get $2000 per month???

The way that the North Koreans march around with those hard high stomping steps is a lot of stress on their legs and backs. What is the point to that?
