The DPRK's participation in the Russian war against Ukraine increases the possibility of a conflict on the Korean Peninsula.
The DPRK asks the Kremlin to provide it with advanced nuclear weapons technologies in exchange for assistance in the war against Ukraine.
This was stated by South Korean Defense Minister Kim Yong Hyun, reports CNN.
He noted that North Korea is likely demanding technologies related to tactical nuclear weapons, as well as intercontinental ballistic missiles, from Russia.
In addition, the minister said that the deployment of troops by North Korea to help Russia will increase the “likelihood of a war on the Korean Peninsula,” but this could lead to “an escalation of security threats on the Korean Peninsula.”
Recall that it was previously reported that The DPRK is ready to test an intercontinental missile, capable of reaching the US.
In addition, we previously reported that South Korea may send military observers to Ukraine.
