In a major escalation of the Russia-Ukraine war, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has expressed grave concerns over the involvement of North Korean troops in the conflict. This comes as North Korea’s leader Kim Jong Un has called for the mass production of attack drones, suggesting a direct military intervention in the ongoing crisis.
According to reports, Ukraine has accused North Korean troops of fighting on behalf of Moscow and supplying Russia with weapons. This troubling development has sparked international outrage and raised fears of the conflict spreading beyond the borders of Ukraine.
Experts have warned that the involvement of North Korean forces could significantly escalate the already volatile situation in Ukraine. Alexander Lipke and Gustav Gressel from the European Council on Foreign Relations have emphasized the potential consequences of North Korea’s military intervention, highlighting the urgent need for diplomatic efforts to de-escalate tensions in the region.
As the world watches with concern, it remains to be seen how the international community will respond to the presence of North Korean troops in the Russia-Ukraine war. President Zelenskyy’s strong condemnation of this new development underscores the gravity of the situation and the need for swift action to prevent further escalation.

That is not true.
They entered 10 days ago and are all dead by now. Or have defected to the west.
We Asian never cared about Ukraine war and mostly we support Russia and anti western in mind so BRICS was formed against western hyprocicy and double standards
what is diffirence send money and arms between send people?maybe there is difference, but your hypocrisy is also make people sick
RU and NK didn't ally themselves to win the war (the war is already won); they joined together to win the peace ….
Russia has about 600.000 troops over there, they don't need 10.000 troops from Korea at all!
Look like west has media,Russian got good army and weapons?
ask for south korian troops 😁
This is not German chanell !!!!!!
If the west with it's NATO is silent then let Ukraine negotiate with Russia and abondon intention of JOINING NATO..
Really, a " major escalation "…any thoughts to all the foreign military personnel on the ground in Ukraine, that are teaching Ukrainians how to utilize sophisticated military weaponry…fighting and dying for a proxy war…because, it was the West, specifically Germany, that reneged on the Minsk Accords…take a look at the economies of all the Western countries, the billions of $'s sent for this pissing contest….all you had to do, was negotiate, keep everyone close, but oh no, not you rockets scientists…Scholz believes he can hold an election off until February…DW, that is as much a fantasist delusion, as all your DW news reader, specially the older gentlemen, with his psychotic delusions of Ricky from Canada blithering nonsense-LOL!! You humans, continue to lie to yourselves, with your sad belief, like Blinken and Biden did, that you have more powers than God & Guardians….I'm NY Toms very British/Brazilian future wife MD, Veteran, Middle East & Cont. of Africa
North Korea has a treaty with Russia.
Ukraine has So many allies,but none of them dare to sign the same treaty with Ukraine.
A group of useless hypocritical people including DW.
Love Russia from India ❤️ 🇮🇳
well, if Russ/North Korea keep losing 2000 soldiers a day, it won't matter much regarding the production and NK production is known to be quite bad, so just as likely the drones will help destroy NK/Russians.
North Korea is bordering China and Russia while South Korea is melting down into injustice western Capital;ism losing its Korean identity and beings. How many US military bases are in S, Korea and Japan?
Just imagine… Nk troops and russian army just entered Riga and Warsaw… Moving towards berlin ❤❤❤ usa president having some negotiations with pootler behind eu … Half of berlin becomes ruski lands ❤❤❤
Come on NATO the Rus bots in the comments want to know the difference between sending arms and money and sending the NATO forces. Can we please show the Rus bots the difference?!
Do North Korea have relations with it's Western allied neighbors?
😂😂😂
Drone are more powerful than figter zet plan
Transferring tech to Israel is not matter of concern. You all LoL.
NATO weapons soldiers are along side of Ukraine that is not escalation , what kind thinking this is
China is not working with Russia or NK. if just 1% of the "over capacity" was used for Russian war, Ukraine would already lost the war. China is just in neutral position and make money and trade with both parties. Coz Ukraine issue has nothing to do with China at all. Plus US treats China as No.1 enermy and why condemn enermy's enemy?
Even if it is true Korean troops are deployed in Kursk, which is a UN recognized region of Russia. So according to all international laws Russia has a right to defend itself.
When Trump makes you pay for the American soldiers deployed in EU. Thats when you will understand how lucrative this business is 😅
😮what are 10,000 Koreans compared to 54,000 NATO soldiers who are in Ukraine….they should have sent at least 50,000…as well as the Chinese….I mean when NATO was in Ukraine from the first day, I don't know what they were waiting for until now…..
America has failed the Ukrainians not only Ukraine America has failed and scared of Russia 💔
It sounds Avengard , you mentioned china 😂
wtf u talkin bout whole eu is helpin ukraine ofc they gonna use their allies. thats why europe never should have escalated the conflict further, u drive em together
Keep your friends close…
Winter is coming. LOL
It doesnt make russia evil with that kind of narrative. You sanctioned them and thats what you get.
When will they come to the realization that, this lies are not helping Ukraine at all
All because NATO trying to expand to Russia's border.
NATO is an OFFENSIVE alliance !
So sad, they are just so scared of Russia and North Korea, both have nuclear warheads and hypersonic missile launchers where European states doesn't. The fatal catastrophe is they are all counting on Trump! That orange turtle will deliver nothing! Trump does neither dare nor want to declare war on Russia, North Korea, Iran and China.
You need to deal this on your own, if you do not have the capability and guts to fight them, just keep shut and put.
Can America give military support to russia???trump is in love with Putin and the north korean dictator they are trump's idols.
More than 50 countries are helping Ukraine . 10.000 Korean troops help Russians so what ??? cry
Western leaders are so chicken out that they can talk, they can't walk
Slava ukraine 🙏💙💛🫡
Why Europe so slowly and scared and ready to give itself for putin???
Nice Game
Supreme leader trump will end all wars and lead us to everlasting peace o/
Rusia 💪💪💪💪
EU's ammunition manufacturing capacity is small in comparison to the top like China, same goes with United States. Roughly they can deliver 10-20% of the shells and missiles per month as China, without counting Russia, North Korea and Iran.
The second problem is cost, it cost way too much money for Europeans and Americans to manufacture weapons and ammunitions, at least 10 times of the Chinese counterparts, just like homemade comparing to Temu. Therefore it is not possible to keep up any conventional war even with just Russia.
Ukraine at this moment is consuming most of the ammo capacity of the west and fail to meet its need.
NATO is nothing but LAME misspelled
How are you watching North Korea State media and why don't you show more of them when they're not at war?
China: poke me further if you really wanna learn what it means to "gear up".
NATO is a joke forget about them! Ukraine will stand alone!
Inhuman WEST aliance!
Still pushing the North Korean troop narrative! Was 1500 then 3000 and now 12.000.
Yes are working together!!!
What is NATO for? Alliance for what?
