Ambassador of Ukraine Dmytro Ponomarenko gave interview to the “Weekly Chosun“ magazine.
Key comments:
The participation of North Korean servicemen in russia’s aggression against Ukraine is considered as internationalization of the war and its expansion beyond the borders of the two states.
Steady, large-scale supply of weapons and ammunition is urgently needed to help Ukraine defend itself. In this regard, Ukraine urges South Korea to consider the possibility of lifting its arms embargo on Ukraine.
About 100 000 North Koreans soldiers can gain combat experience and learn the tactics of modern warfare on rotation basis within a year. It poses a serious security risk, particularly for the Korean Peninsula.
Ukraine suffers from the daily missile and drone attacks, which has a devastating impact on the education of Ukrainian children.
