South Korea is renewing its threat to send weapons to Ukraine, days after releasing intelligence alleging that North Korea plans to deploy a large number of troops to support Russia’s invasion.

South Korea will consider sending Ukraine “weapons for defense and attack,” according to the Yonhap news agency, which cited an unnamed senior presidential official on Tuesday.

Yonhap also reported Seoul may send military and intelligence personnel to Ukraine to analyze North Korean battlefield tactics and assist in interrogations of captured North Koreans.

By sending troops to Ukraine, North Korea’s military could gain valuable battlefield experience, secure financial support to bolster the country’s struggling economy and lay the groundwork for future joint drills with Russia, according to analysts.

There are also fears in Seoul that Pyongyang seeks advanced military technology from Moscow, potentially including help with its nuclear, missile or satellite programs.

Neocon Logic 101

South Korea will send it's troops to Ukraine to fight North Korea's troops supporting Russia, while America's military defends South Korea's border from North Korea, while at the same time leaving our Southern border completely open.

Had enough yet?

Vote Trump.

No. If south Koreans want to die for Ukraine, they’re more than welcome to.

It seems that North Korea is sending combat troops as allies in a Russian European invasion.

The South Koreans appear to be offering some advisors to help with advice and intelligence such as interrogation and language assistance, not manpower fighting forces.
