In the statements made first by Ukrainian President Zelenskiy and then by Ukrainian intelligence sources, he claimed that at least 3 thousand North Korean soldiers would be used in the Ukrainian war under Russia.
THEY AVOID CONFIRMING THE TRANSPORTATION
According to the news of Seoul-based Yonhap agency based on the North Korean Central News Agency (KCNA), North Korea’s Deputy Foreign Minister for Relations with Russia, Kim Jong-gyu, said about the news that his country sent troops to Russia to fight against Ukraine, “If “If there is something like what the world media is talking about, I think it will be an action in accordance with the rules of international law.” he said.
Kim stated that there would be forces that would want to describe North Korea’s sending of troops to Russia as illegal, and emphasized that the Ministry of Defense did not intervene in matters within its jurisdiction and refrained from confirming the troop transfer.
SEOUL FRONT BELIEVES SOLDIERS ARE SHIPPED
Kim’s statement was interpreted in the South Korean media as the Pyongyang administration’s implicit acceptance of the troop deployment.
Pyongyang’s statements regarding the troop shipment were made by Russian President Vladimir Putin, who refused to deny the news and said, “We have never doubted that the North Korean administration takes the agreements we made seriously, but in accordance with Article 4 of this agreement, it is our business what we will do and how we will do it.” came after saying.
FOR NOW 3 THOUSAND SOLDIERS WILL BE DEPLOYED UNTIL DECEMBER.
