US Warns: North Korea Gaining Combat Experience in Ukraine War
A senior US official warned that North Korea’s deployment of over 12,000 troops alongside Russian forces in Ukraine provides Pyongyang with valuable combat experience, enhancing its military capabilities against neighbors. This collaboration, including the exchange of military technology, strengthens North Korea’s potential for future aggression and arms sales. The UN Security Council convened to address North Korea’s recent missile test, with Pyongyang justifying it as defensive, while the US highlighted the detrimental impact of this military cooperation. Despite concerns, further UN action is unlikely due to Russia’s veto power.
