Ambassador of Ukraine Dmytro Ponomarenko gave interview to Radio Free Asia.
Key comments:
Over 11,000 North Korean soldiers are deployed near Ukraine’s borders, marking a clear escalation by Russia and the internationalization of the conflict.
North Korean troops will be used as "cannon fodder" in difficult combat zones, therefore resulting in high casualties.
North Korea has already supplied significant weapons and ammunition to russia, and is expected to continue to do so in larger quantities.
Pyongyang’s involvement in russia’s war against Ukraine boosts its military potential through gaining modern warfare experience and access to russian military technology, significantly increasing security threats in the East Asian region.
