(DailyEmailNews.com) – In a shocking revelation, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has exposed the brutal reality North Korean soldiers face on the front lines of Russia’s war against Ukraine.
These foreign fighters were not only thrown into a conflict far from home where they have had heavy casualties but are also being executed by their own forces to prevent capture.
According to Zelensky, over 3,000 North Korean troops have been killed or wounded in Russia’s Kursk region alone.
The North Korean troops’ involvement in this European conflict underscores the global implications of Russia’s aggression.
It also raises concerns about the potential for further escalation, prompting Zelensky to urge China to influence North Korea to prevent the war from expanding.
“The Korean people should not lose their people in battles in Europe. And this can be influenced, in particular, by Korea’s neighbors, in particular, China,” Zelensky stated.
“If China is sincere in its statements that the war should not expand, appropriate influence on Pyongyang is necessary,” he added.
While the Biden administration continues to pledge support for Ukraine, the introduction of North Korean troops into the conflict adds a new layer of complexity to an already chaotic situation.
The reported execution of wounded North Korean soldiers by their own forces to prevent capture is a stark reminder of the brutality of totalitarian regimes.
“Everything is arranged in a way that makes it impossible for us to capture the Koreans as prisoners,” Zelensky declared.
“Their own people are executing them, there are such cases. And the Russians send them into assaults with minimal protection,” he warned.
