Our South Korean partners have stood side-by-side with us in defence of Ukraine whilst also working to preserve regional stability here on the Korean peninsula,
If it’s true, then to my mind, it shows a level of desperation in relation to Russia,
Russia is in a difficult position in terms of the number of casualties and the financial strain this war is placing on them,
We remain united in our support for Ukraine. We have always said it is for the Ukrainian people to decide their own future. So we’re clear, together with President Zelenskyy, that the only acceptable outcome is a sovereign Ukraine and a just peace."
North Korean troops, either attacking Ukraine from Russian territory or entering into Ukrainian territory, must be a red line for the United States and NATO. Your administration must make that absolutely clear and unequivocal,
Regarding the invitation for Ukraine to join NATO, we are open to it and it's a discussion that we are having with our partners,
It would be serious and push the conflict into a new stage, an additional escalatory stage,
This is a huge threat of further escalation of Russian aggression against Ukraine. There is a big risk of it growing out of its current scale and borders,
At this moment, our official position is that we cannot confirm reports that North Koreans are actively now as soldiers engaged in the war effort, but that may change,
As Russia and North Korea have signed a mutual treaty akin to a military alliance, the possibility of such a deployment is highly likely."
But we do know that North Korea is supporting Russia in many ways, weapons supplies, technological supplies, innovation, to support them in the war effort—and that is highly worrying,
We remain united in our support for Ukraine

As Ukraine enters a difficult winter it's important to say 'we're with you'
The Euro-Atlantic community must wake up to the fact that DPRK invades Europe alongside Russia and act without delay. Russia seriously escalates its aggression by involving DPRK on a war party scale. We require an immediate and strong reaction from the Euro-Atlantic community and the world,
Russia scales up its war. In response, allies must scale up military support for Ukraine. Lift restrictions on long-range strikes. Start intercepting Russian missiles and drones over Ukraine. Extend invitation to NATO. Boost investment in Ukraine’s arms manufacturing. Take action!"
We currently don’t have the full picture,
We know about 10,000 soldiers of North Korea, that they are preparing to send to fight against us,
