North Korea is already afraid to send troops to Russia: Umierov named the reason.
The dictator of North Korea, Kim Jong Un, decided not to risk his strategic reserve and refused to send additional troops to Russia. According to Ukrainian Defense Minister Rustem Umierov, North Korea has already sent approximately 11,000 troops from Kim Jong Un's personal reserve to the front.
“North Korea considered the possibility of sending additional troops to Ukraine, but this could deplete the strategic reserve and pose a security threat to the country,”the minister emphasized.
This decision indicates problems with the mobilization reserve in North Korea. Ukrainian authorities and their partners are closely monitoring this situation and are ready to respond to threats if necessary.
Prospects for sending workers to the factory in Russia
Currently, the possibility of sending workers to the drone manufacturing plant in Russia is also being considered. About 25,000 workers are planned to be sent to the special economic zone “Alabuga” in Tatarstan, where drones are manufactured.
According to reports, Kim Jong Un refused military assistance from Russia due to possible consequences for his own country. There is also a consideration to send workers to a Russian drone manufacturing plant, indicating some changes in North Korea's strategic actions and its relations with Russia.
