President Vladimir Putin said on Friday that it was Russia’s business whether or not it decided to use North Korean troops and said that if Ukraine wanted to join NATO then Moscow could do what it wanted to ensure its own security.
The United States said on Wednesday that it had seen evidence that North Korea has sent 3,000 troops to Russia for possible deployment in Ukraine, a move that the West is casting as a significant escalation of the Ukraine war.
Ukraine’s military intelligence service said that the first North Korean units trained in Russia had been deployed in the Kursk region, a Russian border area where Ukrainian forces took a chunk of Russian land in August.
Invading Ukraine caused 2 more countries on their border to join nato.
I mean, yes, Putin should have never begun the war to begin with. Those countries aren’t going to leave NATO if Russia leaves Ukraine today.
No, he’s just making literally all of Eastern Europe more united and bloodthirsty to revenge themselves on past Russian aggression.
The beauty of having Russia as an enemy is that everybody hates them and wants to see them suffer, so, it’s easy to get everyone in line to brutalize them without remorse.
It’s like when everyone in WW2 turned on the Nazis, and suddenly there was 0 mercy or chance for surrender, it was rip and tear until it was done.
So many eastern Europeans remember, and now that Russia looks so pathetically weak and broken, they’re seeing their opportunity to drag every ounce of pain and blood from them.
Honestly, I do feel sorry for Russians. But they brought this on themselves.
Ah, just like Trump united most of the world against him.
