North Korean troops in Russia: Zelenskyy warns of escalation!
A dramatic meeting in the Kremlin: Russia's President Vladimir Putin received the North Korean Foreign Minister Choe Son Hui, while Ukraine spreads alarming news about the presence of North Korean troops near their border. According to the Ukrainian secret services, 11,000 North Korean soldiers in the Kursk region have already been stationed, and fears grow that they could intervene in the fight against Ukraine.
In a video published by the Kremlin, Putin Choe welcomed him to Kim Jong Un "warm, comradely greetings". In the meantime, the spokesman for the U.S. State Department, Matthew Miller, warned that up to 10,000 North Korean soldiers were willing to join the Russian military. "We see an increase in North Korean troops and no reaction from our partners," said Ukrainian President Wolodymyr Selenskyj.
International reactions
In Kyiv, the Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha called for decisive action against the North Korean military presence. "North Korean troops wage an aggressive war in Europe against a sovereign European state," emphasized Sybiha and criticized the hesitation of the West. German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock assured Ukraine "unshakable" support and announced 200 million euros in emergency aid for the winter.
The situation continues to escalate: the United States and the EU condemn "illegal arms deliveries" to Russia and demand the withdrawal of the troops. While the tensions rise, the world is looking forward to the next steps in this geopolitical chess game.
