A Pentagon spokesperson said that any military personnel North Korea sent to Ukraine to aid Russian forces would just be "cannon fodder."
  • North Korean soldiers sent to aid Russia in Ukraine would be “cannon fodder,” the Pentagon said.
  • The two nations signed a new security pact, and some Korean units look set to go to Ukraine.
  • Russia is known for treating its soldiers as highly disposable and has suffered high death tolls.

    Ukraine has won simply by continuing to exist over 2 years after Putin’s 3 day invasion started. Your pathetic attempts to influence Internet audiences in favor of Russia won’t help either, miserable troll. Bigoted, oppressive, evil societies like Russia will never win.

      I’m sure you feel very righteous by forcing Ukrainian men to go fight Russia. You think you’re somehow helping them. they are less enthusiastic about it than you think

      Since the start of the war, hundreds of thousands of ordinary Ukrainians have volunteered to serve at the front, helping to maintain the country’s independence and repel the initial attack.

      Many of those initial soldiers are dead, wounded or simply exhausted, leaving the military to recruit among a more reluctant pool of men.

      To fill the ranks, the Ukrainian president, Volodymyr Zelenskiy, last April signed a controversial law that lowered the mobilisation age from 27 to 25. Under the new guidelines, draft evaders can lose their driving licence, have their bank accounts frozen and property seized.

      Even before the latest mobilisation drive, more than 20,000 men are believed to have fled the country to avoid service, some of them swimming and drowning in attempting to cross Ukraine’s border into Romania.

      If you really want to help Ukraine you can sign up to their volunteer army and risk your own life. Unless you believe you’re worth more than a Ukrainian of course.
