The European Union has no evidence of the presence of troops from North Korea on the territory of Ukraine. However, the EU continues to monitor developments.

A senior EU diplomat stated this on condition of anonymity, reports 24 Channel. It is worth noting that earlier journalists from The Guardian claimed that North Korean army servicemen could have participated in the war against Ukraine on the side of Russia.

Did the DPRK send its troops to Ukraine

The interlocutor confirmed that the DPRK transferred one million artillery shells and other types of various weapons to Russia. However, the EU has no information yet on whether North Korean soldiers are present on the battlefield.

We have no evidence of the presence of North Korean troops on the ground. We have seen some information in the media. We have no intelligence that would allow us to believe that this is the case, the diplomat said.

He noted that after the assistance provided by the DPRK, assistance with the deployment of North Korean soldiers would be a “reasonable step.” Now the European Union will continue to monitor developments.

В The EU also added that they have no evidence of the transfer of military weapons from China to Russia.

By the way, Kim Jong-un previously announced the acceleration of the transformation of the DPRK. The North Korean leader wants to turn his country into a “military superpower with nuclear weapons”.
