US Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin stated that the North Korean troops were in Russia. This information has become a new turn in difficult relations between Russia, the DPRK and the USA and maintains concern about increasing cooperation between two authoritarian regimes.
"There is evidence that there is a DPRK in Russia," Austin told reporters in Rome.
"What do they do? It is left to see. It's the things we need to find out," Austin added.
The President of Ukraine has announced the preparation of two brigades of 6 thousand soldiers with the DPRK in Russia. Zelensky urged the world to respond rigidly to this intervention in North Korea to the war in Europe.
The head of the GUR of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine Kirill Budanov reported that the first military from North Korea could arrive in the Kursk region on October 23.
