Ukrainian president calls on countries to step in before troops sent to Russia by Pyongyang reach battlefield

Ukraine’s president urged allies to stop “watching” and take steps before North Korean troops deployed in Russia reach the battlefield, while the army chief said his troops were facing “one of the most powerful offensives” by Moscow since the full-scale war began.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy raised the prospect of a pre-emptive Ukrainian strike on camps where the North Korean troops are being trained and said Kyiv knows their location. But he said Ukraine can’t do it without permission from allies to use western-made long-range weapons to hit targets deep inside Russia.

“But instead … America is watching, Britain is watching, Germany is watching. Everyone is just waiting for the North Korean military to start attacking Ukrainians as well,” Zelenskyy said in a post late on Friday on the Telegram messaging app.

    The moment they remove all troops from Ukraine and Crimea, we can talk about how they’re a threat to peace.

    Until then, they have to burn.

      We’re not gonna talk about everything that happened since the Maiden Coup? The US controlled puppet government of far-right Nazis? The genocide of ethnic Russians for years in east Ukraine? The far-right government allowing establishment of NATO troops & missile deployments along the Russian border for years? The dictatorship reigning over Ukraine, which has banned rival parties, rival media, and refuses to hold elections?

        Ukraine has made it perfectly clear, on many occasions, as have all Russia’s neighbors, that they hate Russia, and want to see every Russian die horribly.

        The fact that they’ve been fighting like thay have for 3 years should be a hint. The fact that the first thing to happen after the invasion was nato adding more members should be another hint.

        We can have peace any time Russia wants, they just have to go back to their shitty country.
