Restrictions on long-range strikes within Russia by Western weapons supplied to Kyiv should be dropped following confirmation that Vladimir Putin is using North Korean troops to fight Ukraine, Lithuania's president has said.
Pyongyang has been supplying Russia with munitions to fight Ukraine but Rutte said the deployment marks "a significant escalation" in its involvement and was "a dangerous expansion of Russia's war."
On Monday, the Pentagon said that North Korea had sent 10,000 troops to Russia who could join Moscow's fight against Ukraine in the "next several weeks" amid concerns from South Korea and the U.S. that Moscow might offer technology in return to advance Pyongyang's nuclear weapons and missile program.
Nausėda said that the latest developments showed the need for Ukraine to be allowed to use weapons supplied by the West to hit targets inside Russia, which is at the moment prohibited by the U.S. and the U.K. for fear of escalation...
South Korean intelligence has said that North Korean troops will probably be sent to the frontline, although Kyiv has not yet confirmed encountering these forces on the battlefield.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky posted on Telegram that he held a phone call on Tuesday with his South Korean counterpart Yoon Suk Yeol about "3,000 North Korean troops transferred to training facilities in the immediate vicinity of the combat zone." ...

Isn’t that like calling the local police because your next door neighbor went to rob a bank in Pakistan?
So Ukraine can use foreign troops from myriad countries and that’s okay, but Russia brings in NK soldiers & suddenly escalating the war is a good idea? Such hubris & stupidity.
” Lithuania’s president has said”
Let him start the war the and see how that works out for Lithuania.
Ukraine doesn’t use foreign troops, the North Korean Army joining the Russian Army in their invasion is new and the first time they have joined together in an invasion in Europe.
This is the North Korean Army, this isn’t some North Korean civilians volunteering to enlist in the Russian army.
Ah, no, no it doesn’t.
I just got done watching video of dead Western special forces in Bryansk, some were carrying Canadian flags.
Things did not go well for them there...maybe the sheep dipped South Koreans will have better luck.
Has any reliable eyes actually seen NK troops? Fearing defections, I can’t imagine NK allowing their deployment.
You are pure rabid communist scum. Go away To a Canadian forum and turn Canada into a murderous empire. You are single-handedly making many Americans hate Canadians.
“Ukraine doesn’t use foreign troops, the North Korean Army joining the Russian Army in their invasion is new and the first time they have joined together in an invasion in Europe.”
Apparently you like to lie about the huge presence of sheep dipped American and other western contractors in the Ukraine and the presence of at least 12 CIA bases running the show.
Don’t project your habit of lying onto me.
Assuming these North Korean army stories are true, then these are not advisors, or military observers, or a few civilian technicians, or a handful of intelligence people, this is the actual North Korean army joining Russia in a European invasion.
Ansel, you lie every time you try to link patriotism and good intentions to the genocidal Ukraine War. Both you and your fellow demonic neocons have crowed about how this proxy is a brilliant way to build up our military industrial complex with no American deaths. You cheer on death and destruction. Pure scum.
Your nasty childishness and dishonesty is on full display this morning, why not relax and try to control your constant anger and raging.
“Simple, because Russia is probably paying back NK by recklessly giving them dangerous nuke technology”
Like we did with islamofascist Pakistan? Also, I hate to break it to you but the Norks already have nuclear weapons. Missile technology is now widespread where even goat-humping Muslim countries have it as well. This war is not about preventing weapons technology proliferation but raw profit.
Truth hurts does it?
Weird, hard to believe you wake up in this goofy mood.
Weird that you flog a foreign war to bolster the Biden Regime after the coup in 2020 like a good little leftist snake.
