Belarus has played a part in Russia’s war. In February 2022 Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine was launched, partly, from Belarusian territory.
Why did the country’s leader allow the Kremlin to do that?
“How do you know I gave permission for Belarusian territory to be used?” Lukashenko asks me.
“Because Belarusian territory was used [for the invasion].”
“There were exercises going on involving several thousand Russian soldiers.
Putin started withdrawing these troops from where they were in southern Belarus, down a road, along the border with Ukraine.
"At one point he redirected some of these troops to Kyiv. I’m sure they’d been provoked. It’s up to Putin how he withdraws his troops. Via Kyiv. Or he could have gone through Minsk.”
“Didn’t you call Putin to ask what was going on?” I ask.
“No. He didn’t call me. And I didn’t call him. These are his troops and he has the right to move them out whichever way he likes.”

Nork troops in the Ukraine mean there are less Nork troops in N. Korea. Which I would presume makes the Norks less likely to invade S. Korea.

UN Secretary General Guterres respectfully bows and shakes the hand of The Putin in Russia’s Kazan at the BRICS summit.
A lot of people start crying and scream hysterically when they see this picture, for some reason.

Only a Chinese intel operative can know that.

So far, no indication there are any Norkie troops inside Ukraine or that they ever will be. Lots of hysteria over “what if”. So silly.
Ukraine has blown up thousands of Russian tanks, hundreds of thousands of Russian infantrymen and depleted North Korean artillery and missile stocks. Seems pretty useful to me.
That's not true - certainly not what the US and South Korean intelligence communities are saying. South Korea's National Intelligence Service for example stated last week that it has evidence that 1500 North Korean troops are in Ukraine. US intelligence this week says the number has risen to 3000.
Putin just admitted to the NK troops today at his Kazan freak show. He said they were in compliance of his mutual defense treaty with Little Rocket Man.
Xi is going to get the Ukraine rebuilding contracts.
Putin is such a stooge.
Where is the proof they are inside Ukraine? Can you provide proof?
So what if Norkies are in Russia? Last month, Lao military were in Russia for training and joint exercises. what’s the big deal so long as they stay in Russia?
Can you not provide a link to where you read that NK troops are now inside Ukraine? Nothing? Are you sure you read that?
Ukraine just needs to drop leaflets telling the NORK soldiers they can have Ukrainian citizenship if they defect….and a gift card to McDonalds. The Norks would be gone in a heartbeat.
Sure, I am happy to google stuff for you.

Need anything else googled?
None of sources claim there are Russian troops inside Ukraine.
They say some NK troops are being sent to Russia.
The Kyiv Independent cites Zelensky saying they are being sent to Kursk (which is in Russia).
Zero indication — not even a claim that NK troops are now inside Ukraine.
The NK troops are not currently in Ukraine, and we don’t know they ever will be.
If they ever do show up there and they drop those leaflets, the Norkies will know Ukrainian citizenship will simply land them on the other side of the front lines facing the Russians. so it may not work so well.
