Ukraine and the world must do everything possible to ensure that the involvement of North Korean troops on the side of Russia becomes a losing move for both the Kremlin and North Korea, President Zelensky said in a video address.
"Terror, unfortunately, can spread like a virus when it does not meet sufficient counteraction. Now, our counteraction must be sufficient. Strong enough. The first battles with North Korean soldiers open a new page of instability in the world. Together with the world, we must do everything to make this Russian step to expand the war – to really escalate it – to make this step a failure. Both for them, and for North Korea," he stated.
The President also thanked "everyone in the world who responded to the presence of North Korean soldiers in Russia," as well as those "who are preparing appropriate actions to support our defense here in Ukraine."
