North Korea first acknowledged that it has deployed units to support the Russian War with Ukraine and claim that the country’s military has helped Moscow retake control over the border area of Kursk.
North Korean leader Kim Jong Un decided to participate in the conflict to liberate the region of Kursk and bounce a “adventure invasion” of Russia by the Ukrainian army in an operation that was “victorious”, said the official Korean Central press agency on Monday, quoting the North Korean Central Commission on Monday.
He stated that the decision to join the war was in accordance with the contract on the mutual defense of both countries sealed last year. Kim called it a “sacred mission” to further strengthen their ties. The confirmation of North Korea comes after the Russian Chief of the General Staff of Valery Gerasimov thanked the North Korean troops for their participation in the Kursk region, which first acknowledged the Pyongyang Army in Russia.
Russian President Vladimir Putin also thanked the Korean army for military support, according to the statement on the Kremlin website on Monday.
This is followed by the Russian claim that it has completed its efforts to push Ukrainian forces from the Kursk region, which is a development that would deny Ukraine an important negotiating chip with Moscow after organizing the territory for seven months.
The Moscow claim could not be independently verified. However, the Ukrainian army denied on Saturday that it was fully excluded from the Russian region and said the Bloomberg report that its forces held its positions in this area and “continued to postpone attacks in the direction of Kursk”.
US President Donald Trump, who dialing pressure on Kiev to achieve the peace agreement that critics are afraid of, may prefer Moscow, Russia and Ukraine said “very close” agreements. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenky said he hoped for “reliable and lasting peace” after meeting with Trump in Rome on Saturday before the funeral of Pope Francis.
If North Korea’s demands are verified, its soldiers could eventually get an exhibition in the real world and a modern combat experience that they are seriously missing. Pyongyang mode controls one of the largest militants in the world with about 1.3 million active staff. While Kim’s regime wants to demonstrate their defense skills with the launch of the rocket, the South Korea agency said North Korea soldiers did not understand modern war.
The official confirmation of his participation in Pyongyang conflict is monitored by the months of the news that her units participated in the war. In January, the Ukrainian army captured two North Korean soldiers and Soul estimated that about 300 Pyongyang soldiers died in the support of the Russian campaign. South Korean and Ukrainian intelligence officials said North Korea sent at least 10,000 soldiers to Russia last fall.
The Armed Forces of the Earth “have fully demonstrated their high combat spirit and military temperament,” Kcna added.
The South Korea government urged the immediate withdrawal of North Korean troops from Russia and promised to react together with the international community, if the current military secret agreement between North Korea and Russia continues, the spokesman of Koo Byoung-Sam on the briefing said.
The participation of the North Korean Army in the War is a clear illegal act that violates the UN resolution, and its recognition is also awarding crime, adding KOO, which points to the UN Charter, which gives up aggressive laws and the UN security resolution and prohibiting military cooperation with North Korea.
On Friday, Kim, accompanied by his young daughter Ju Ae, attended the opening ceremony of the new 5,000 -ton destroyer, which KCNA said was equipped with strong cutting weapons that mean a breakthrough in their efforts to modernize their naval forces.
The Allies of Ukraine, including the US and South Korea, warned that the involvement of Pyongyang in the fight that has now entered its fourth year, has worsening what has been the greatest European conflict since World War II. They expressed concern that the deepening cooperation between Putin and Kim could also affect the balance of security in the Indo-Pacific region, where there is growing rivalry between China and the US.
Kim was a key ally of Putin and gave rare strengthening to support his war, which also raised concerns about potential assistance in Moscow to strengthen the nuclear and missile arsenal of Pyongyang.
