We have data that 10 thousand North Korean soldiers are preparing for the Ukrainian front, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky announced today at a press conference in Brussels, after presenting to The European Council its plan for victory in the war undertaken by Russia.
We have our own intelligence that soldiers from North Korea are participating in the occupation of Ukrainian territory on behalf of the Russian enemy, have joined the Russian army. I don't know their number, Zelensky added. In his words, "this is the first step towards a world war.
Zelensky again called for his country to receive an invitation to join NATO. If we get a sign that we will join NATO, we will feel that we are not alone, he said. If you really want Ukraine to be part of the pact, it must be proven with actions. Therefore, extending an invitation is not crossing red lines. This is a precautionary measure and would show that (Russian President Vladimir) Putin will not change the world by force, commented the Ukrainian president.
According to him, the only country with nuclear missiles that has given up this weapon is Ukraine, and today it is the only one of this group of countries that is at war. Ukraine chooses NATO instead of nuclear weapons, Zelensky summarized.
