Top "red lines": Zelensky explained why Putin's DPRK troops
The adviser to the Head of the Presidential Office of Ukraine Mikhail Podolyak suggests that the DPRK will directly participate in the battles on the Russo-Ukrainian Front soon, because North Korea is a militaristic country that is heated for war. In this way, Russia seeks to show that authoritarian regimes are capable of aggressive action, said Podolyak in an interview with Channel 24 October 31.
According to Mikhail Podolyak, the Kremlin wants to show that authoritarian regimes can act aggressively, and democratic countries are weakened to prevent them.
The adviser to the chairman of the OP recalled that the DPRK is constantly under sanctions, in isolation from the global world, and it is "sharpened" exclusively under the warfare, so participation in war against Ukraine is an opportunity to realize its potential, to receive money from Russia, technology and certain Military assistance guarantees in the future, to gain experience to then solve wars in other regions. "North Korea will not respond to any diplomatic pressure or any trade embargo.
She has nothing but war except military instrument. So today the North Koreans are happy because they got a few opportunities at once," Podolyak explained. The Kremlin, in turn, seeks to collapse "red lines" after these lines crossed Ukraine, transferring fighting into the territory of the Russian Federation in the Kursk region. Now Russia wants to show other authoritarian regimes that they can impunityly attack the countries of democracy, says adviser to the chairman of the OP.
"It is already clear that there are no" red lines "that Russia was constantly talking. The war can be in Russia, "said Mikhail Podolyak. According to Podolyak, among the military transferred to the North Korea may be officers, highly specialized specialists who will gain experience on the battlefield.
Referring to the data of intelligence and words of President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky, he calls the figures of 12-15 thousand people and says that the Koreans are now near the warfare in the Kursk region. "See how the events will develop further. I think that everything will be quickly, there will be direct combustion with this part of the Russian army," Podolyak said. He suggests that the DPRK soldiers will participate in direct clashes after interacting with the Russian army.
"They will do it all to record the fact of participation in the war and look at the reaction," - said the adviser to the head of the OP. We will remind, on October 31 Volodymyr Zelenskyy commented on the involvement of fighters of the DPRK in the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. He also noted that Putin's goal is to test the world's response.
