The source noted that the role of Wagner PEC in the war in Ukraine is growing. The Kremlin -controlled military company paid new weapons - in particular, the DPRK sent infantry missiles and shells to the Wagnets. "We can confirm that North Korea has completed the initial supply of Wagner's weapons, which paid for this equipment. Last month, North Korea put infantry missiles and shells in Russia," the official told reporters.
The source also reported that the US estimate is based on intelligence that will be published later. However, Washington believes that the number of ammunition delivered by North Korea will not change the dynamics of hostilities in Ukraine, "but we are concerned that North Korea plans to put" Wagner "more military equipment," the source said.
US officials believe that the supply of weapons by North Korea is a direct violation of the UN Security Council resolutions, and they plan to raise this issue in the Security Council. We will remind, on September 6 the NYT newspaper reported that the Russian Federation purchases millions of shells and rockets in North Korea. At that time, journalists noted that the DPRK has large reserves of ammunition, but their technical condition is questionable.
