North Korean engineering and construction personnel deployed to Russia-occupied Ukraine would be 'cannon fodder,' the Pentagon warned at a Tuesday press conference.
North Korean troops sent to aid the Russian military in its invasion of Ukraine will be 'cannon fodder,' the Pentagon claims. At a Tuesday press conference, a reporter pressed the Pentagon press secretary, Maj. Gen. Pat Ryder, to comment on rumors of North Korean construction and engineering corps set to enter Russian-occupied Ukrainian territory.
Putin's regime has long sought to push the narrative that its invasion of Ukraine is a defensive war, retaking territory that rightfully belongs to Russia. This characterization – accepted by Kim's regime – could open the door to justifying North Korean involvement under the mutual defense pact.
