US Congress discusses possibility of NATO directly attacking North Korean troops if they step into Ukraine  - 1

The United States and NATO allies should consider “directly attacking North Korean forces” if they step into Ukraine and participate in hostilities on the side of Russia. This was said by Congressman Mike Turner, chairman of the Intelligence Committee in the House of Representatives, holosameryky.com reported.

The Republican congressman also said Western countries should allow Ukraine to respond to Russian attacks with strikes against targets deep inside Russian territory.

Turner, a Republican congressman from the state of Ohio, believes that the Ukrainian military should be able to attack legitimate military targets on Russian territory with weapons supplied by the United States or NATO allies or with its own weapons without restrictions.

According to him, the Biden administration does not want to “provoke“ Vladimir Putin, but this is wrong logic, because Ukraine is defending itself. During the discussion, Turner said that Russia should not be allowed to attack Ukraine with impunity while already using foreign troops for its military aggression.

„I believe that the United States and NATO allies should seriously discuss and consider the possibility of directly attacking North Korean troops if they are in Ukraine,”, the Republican said days before the US presidential election. Turner criticized the Biden administration for what he said was a weak response to a series of international crises.

„If we do not attack the Russian military production base, they will continue to produce weapons and ammunition that they will deliver to the front lines or fire from Russian territory. And as a result, there will be increasing and long-term losses for Ukraine”, says Turner.

Therefore, the only way out, according to him, is to allow Ukrainian troops to destroy the production base of the Russians, causing losses in Ukraine. Otherwise, Ukraine will not be able to win the war.

He indicated that there must be a “plan for victory” of Ukraine, and according to him, the current administration in the White House does not have one. On Ukraine's territorial integrity, Turner said it is “negotiable” but it is important to ensure that Crimea is demilitarized so that it does not become a military threat to Eastern Europe. "Crimea should not become the new Kaliningrad”.
