Pyongyang says it can assist Moscow in its conflict in opposition to Ukraine.
The US says hundreds of North Korean troopers at the moment are on Russian soil, getting ready to enter the conflict in opposition to Ukraine.
Most are in Russia’s Kursk area, the place Ukraine launched a counter-invasion virtually three months in the past.
Combating there was intense and a few analysts say the addition of North Korean troops might change the dynamics of the battle.
Because the Kremlin struggles to draw new recruits, Pyongyang has pledged unwavering assist for Moscow.
Does Vladimir Putin’s method to North Korean troops reveal a military stretched to the breaking level?
Or is that this an indication of Russian energy because it builds new alliances?
