Will help in the war for exhaustion: what Putin gets along with the weapon with the DPRK - Bloomberg

Pyongyang Moscow's potential military assistance is referred to in Bloomberg since September 11. The authors of the publication point out that the DPRK leader Kim Jong -in will visit the Russian Federation for the first time in four years and meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin. According to the Americans, during the negotiations of the Head of State will discuss the supply of weapons and ammunition to the Russian Federation.

And although the parties deny the supply of weapons, wrote observers, one should take into account the significant arsenal of weapons owned by North Korea. "North Korea owns one of the largest reserves of artillery tools and unmanaged missiles that can be used in the weapons of Soviet times used by Russia for non -selective attacks in Ukraine," the material reads.

According to Professor of the US Naval College Terens Roerig, supplying weapons from the DPRK will greatly facilitate Russia to depletion "a considerable part of Putin's strategy is to assess that Russia can survive Ukraine and support of the West that is needed for Ukraine's survival. Ammunition allows Putin to continue this strategy, "he said. In addition, additional deliveries of ammunition will allow the Russian defense industry to win time and increase their own production.

Senior Researcher at the Center for Non -Playing the Problem of James Martin David Schmerler believes that an appeal to military assistance to North Korea will help fill the gaps in ammunition and other weapons systems that are difficult to fill Russian weapons. It is expected that among the North Korean ammunition, which can be on the list of Putin's wishes, there are artillery shells of 122 mm and 152 mm, as well as 122 mm caliber missiles.

Also, anti-tank missiles and launchers of the Earth-Air class can be included in this list. In addition, the DPRK has a significant arsenal of old Soviet tanks such as T-54 and T-62. Similar samples have already been seen in Ukraine, so Korean technique can be a donor of spare parts. Meanwhile, many years of sanctions did not allow the DPRK to create weapons that can compete with advanced US and NATO countries, and which was provided to the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
