YouTube Description
as posted by the channelNATO has confirmed North Korean troops have been deployed to Russia's region of Kursk, on the Ukraine border, to help Russian soldiers in their war against Ukraine. NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte called on Russia and North Korea to 'cease these actions immediately.'
It’s believed that North Korea has committed up to 12,000 troops to aid Russia in Ukraine, marking the first time an allied country has sent actual ground forces to support either side since the conflict began nearly three years ago.
This development raises significant concerns for Western allies, who view North Korea’s participation as a dangerous escalation.
Intercepted messages reveal Russian soldiers’ resentment and distrust towards newly deployed North Korean troops in Ukraine, complicating command structures and sparking international concerns about escalating global conflict.
Andrew Marr is joined by Michael Clarke, defence and foreign affairs analyst, who is former Director General of the Royal United Services Institute (RUSI), to discuss.
