Jake Sullivan does not rule out that Moscow may help Pyongyang in implementing its nuclear program.
The US is still studying what exactly Russia will give to North Korea in exchange for the participation of soldiers in the war against Ukraine.
White House National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan said this in an interview with CBS News.
“We don't know for sure, and frankly, I don't think Russian dictator Vladimir Putin knows for sure. I think he probably hasn't decided yet what exactly he's going to do for North Korea going forward,” Sullivan said.
The White House National Security Adviser suggested that North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un is expecting “something significant, possibly military and technological support from Russia” in exchange. Sullivan does not rule out that Moscow may help Pyongyang implement its nuclear program.
“I can't say exactly what will happen, but we have already heard the Russians say that North Korea's nuclear program should be viewed differently today than it was five or 10 years ago. So, concerns about the relationship between Russia and the DPRK on both sides are very real, and this should be taken into account by all countries in the free world,” the White House representative emphasized.
Recall that Russia plans to attract North Korean soldiers to strengthen defense in the Kursk and Belgorod regions. Ukrainian military believes that it will be difficult to capture them.
