UK Ministry of Defense: NATO must oppose possible deployment of DPRK troops to Russia.


The UK Ministry of Defense reported a high probability of the relocation and deployment of hundreds of military personnel from combat units from North Korea to Russia. Defense Minister John Healey made this statement during the presentation of new data on the war in Ukraine in the House of Commons.
"As part of a new alarming development, there is now a high probability that the relocation and deployment of hundreds of military personnel from North Korean combat units to Russia has begun. North Korean soldiers are supporting Russia's aggressive war on European soil – this is both shocking and reckless," he said.
Healey also noted that North Korea is sending significant amounts of ammunition and weapons to Russia, violating numerous UN resolutions. According to him, this military cooperation between Russia and the DPRK has serious consequences for the security of Europe and the Indo-Pacific region. He called on NATO and the G7 countries to oppose this growing aggressive alliance.
