“Intel On Kim’s Troops” Ukraine’s Offer To South Korea For Weapons Aid, Russia Threatens Response
A Ukrainian delegation, led by Defense Minister Rustem Umerov, visited South Korea on Nov. 27, seeking weapons aid, including anti-air missiles and artillery. While South Korea has previously provided non-lethal support to Ukraine, reports of North Korean troop deployment to aid Russia may prompt Seoul to reconsider its stance on arms. President Yoon Suk Yeol emphasized prioritizing defensive measures, though public opposition to arming Ukraine remains strong. Moscow warned of severe retaliation, threatening bilateral ties if South Korea supplies weapons to Kyiv. n18oc_world n18oc_crux
