South Korea threatens to deliver arms to Ukraine - alarm level red!
The tensions between South Korea and North Korea reach a new highlight! South Korea has made it clear that it is ready to think about the delivery of weapons to Ukraine if North Korea and Russia further intensify their military cooperation. After Seoul, this threat has been accused of sent 1,500 soldiers to the support of the Russian troops to the Ukraine conflict. Despite the vehement Dementis from Pyongyang, who dismiss these claims as "reasonless rumors", South Korea remains determined to take measures.
On Monday, South Korea called the Russian ambassador to discuss the allegations. The South Korean National Security Council said that the sending of North Korean troops in the illegal war of Russia is a serious threat to national and international security. "After the sending of North Korean combat troops, we will gradually implement countermeasures," said a high-ranking civil servant in the office of President Yoon Suk-Yeol. These measures could include diplomatic, economic and military aspects, including the consideration of still delivering weapons to Kiev.
North Korea's violent defense
Meanwhile, North Korea has rejected the allegations from South Korea and emphasizes that there is no need for comments on "reasonless, stereotypes rumors". A representative of North Korea rejected the South Korean accusations as an attempt to damage the image of his country and to undermine the friendly relationships between the two countries. Russia has not yet commented on the allegations, but defends his military cooperation with North Korea and emphasizes that it is not directed against South Korea's security interests.
The Situation is tense and the international community is closely observing the developments. South Korea is under pressure, especially western countries and Kiev, which require stronger military support for Ukraine. So far, South Korea has concentrated on non-fatal help, such as mine clearance devices. But the possibility of delivering defensive and even offensive weapons is now seriously considered if the situation escalates.
