[Capture News] Kim Jong-un's North Korean Forces to Be Moneybags "may escalate world war"

U.N. Ambassador Hwang Jun-guk said the North Korean military's deployment to the front line is expected to proceed faster than expected and he is well aware of what will happen to North Korean soldiers at a time when more than 600,000 Russian casualties have occurred.

He also said the North Korean military is feared to become a legitimate military target and become a bulletproof supporter, and that the money they are supposed to receive from Russia will go into Kim Jong-un's pocket.

He then emphasized that the North Korean regime, which uses the North Korean people as consumables, will never be forgiven, saying that he feels compassion for them as a member of the same Korean people.

Ambassador Hwang predicted that North Korean troops would bring about a major change in geopolitics in both east and west Eurasia.

In other words, North Korea will gain experience in modern warfare and seek not only food and fuel but also advanced military technology and supplies in return from Russia.

In addition, the Russian foreign minister recently claimed that the North Korean nuclear issue is an end issue, warning that military cooperation between North Korea and Russia could lead to North Korea's nuclear armament.

Let's listen to Ambassador Hwang.

The U.S. warned North Korean leader Kim Jong-un to think twice, saying that the dispatch of North Korean troops is reckless, adding to the risk, and that there will be deaths soon.

On the other hand, Russia avoided direct mention of sending North Korean troops, saying that the Western fictional instigation was serious and that foreign mercenaries who participated in the Ukrainian side invaded Russia.

North Korea has also threatened to take some action if it interferes, saying cooperation with its regional partner Russia is reasonable and internationally legal.

Several countries, including the European Union, have expressed concern that the deployment of North Korean troops could prolong the war and escalate into a camp confrontation between the West and authoritarian countries.
