They’re probably the only soldiers on Russia’s side happy about the food.

Why can everyone and their grandmother send troops to help Russia, but nobody can send troops to help Ukraine? Shouldnt NATO also say we will allow Ukraine to target Russia with long range weapons if you let more of foreign troops or something?

> North Korean military engineers have been deployed to help Russia target Ukraine with ballistic missiles, and North Koreans operating in occupied areas of Ukraine have already been killed, senior officials in Kyiv and Seoul said.
> There are dozens of North Koreans behind Russian lines, in teams that "Support launcher systems for KN-23 missiles", a source in Ukraine told the Guardian.
> Foreigners have fought as mercenaries for Russia, but if North Koreans are on the ground it would mark the first time a foreign government has sent troops in uniform to support Moscow's war.
Must be a crazy wake up call fighting a Western army that wasn’t malnourished since birth

Well that’s…nice how Ukraine is basically fighting the axis of evil and NATO is still saying they aren’t worthy to be accepted. Really nice. ðŸ«

What if NATO got involved in the ground in significant numbers, but only to push Russians out of Ukraine’s territory and stop there? What are the chances of nuclear escalation then?

Global tensions at its best. I remember learning about the Cold War and how the world seemed constantly on edge, and it feels like we’re on a similar path right here, right now. The world is more interconnected now, but last couple of years certainly showed how fragile peace often is.

This isn’t particularly atypical. North Koreans are providing the Russians with engineering support as the Russians are using their missiles. At the same time North Korean elements are probably embedded within Russian units to gain combat experience. This doesn’t mean thousands of NK troops are on the front, imo it shows how desperate the Russians are for material support.
