President Vladimir Putin said on Thursday that South Korea would be making "a big mistake" if it decides to supply arms to Ukraine and that Moscow would respond to such a move in a way that would be painful for Seoul.
Putin, who was speaking at a news conference in Vietnam, was reacting to a report from Yonhap news earlier on Thursday which said South Korea would review the possibility of supplying weapons to Ukraine after Putin and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un signed a mutual defence pact a day earlier.
He warned Seoul against moving to supply weapons to Kyiv.
"As for the supply of lethal weapons to the war zone in Ukraine, that would be a very big mistake," he said.
"I hope that this will not happen. And if it does happen, then we will also take appropriate decisions, which are unlikely to please the current leadership of South Korea," said Putin.

Do you think Russia's buddy North Korea is going to invade South Korea?
Nah. Being King comes at too high a cost.
He just wants his Soviet remains. For security reasons. Paranoia with good reason.
We fought a proxy war with Russia and China in the Korean War with no clear victory. That was 71 years ago, and we still have troops stationed in South Korea. The U.S. hasn’t had a victory in any proxy war it has fought against Russia or China since then, yet here we are again, fighting another proxy war with Russia in Ukraine, where unaccounted-for billions of tax payer dollars are being wasted. The only individuals who win in proxy wars, are the politicians on both sides of the aisle, their family members, friends, and big donors that have investments in the industrial military complex. The American taxpayer gets screwed once again.
But Pootitoot going to see little kim for the obvious phrpose of getting arms and likely fighters is just fine. I don’t doubt that the reason Pootitoot went to Cuba was for fighters too.

Aside from compelling the Soviet retreat from Afghanistan what proxy war has the US fought with either China or Russia since Korea?
Try Vietnam.
ZEEPER FOLLIES PINGLIST!

True, I can’t believe I forgot the one my dad was in. :)

My brother was a U.S. Army Vietnam Vet, 25th Infantry Division, Cu Chi, Vietnam...1966-67.
Have you forgotten that Russia and China were aiding North Korea in the Korean War, so there has always been a willingness to cooperate with each other. During the Cold War, Russia and China were close as well, both being communist nations at the time. Despite this country's having aided China against Japan, China has turned and $hit on America, far more than Russia ever has. We actually have more to worry about with our current government, and the alphabet agencies conducting their clandestine activities against American citizens, than we do from Putin.
Russia has made buddies with our enemies, because the government running this country has made Russia the perceived enemy of this country, and when you sanction your perceived enemy up the ass, don't be surprised when they turn to your real enemies like Iran, China and North Korea to cuddle up to.
To answer your question, if the RATS are successful in stealing the 2024 election like they did 2020, then you can expect more action from the others. This country isn't capable of fighting a prolonged war on foreign soil. What we did in WWII could never be reproduced in this country ever again. I'm just glad I'm on the tail-end of my life, so hopefully, I won't be around when this country does eventually turn into a third-world commie $hit hole.
That Norkie Praetorian Guard sure are stink faced fascists.
Thats not a land of the free.
The Axis of evil now has reformed thanks to the idiocy of Brandon.Blinken is worse than Biden. What a couple of touch holes.
Apparently, things are going well for them, according to your photographs.
