Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy says he is expected to engage with North Korean troops sent to Russia in the coming days.
"So far, North Korean troops have not participated in the fighting and are preparing to participate in the fighting in Kursk, Russia," Zelensky told KBS.
He confirmed that the media reports that the Ukrainian military and the North Korean military engaged in the first battle and that North Korean soldiers died were not true, and that the U.S. CNN reports that the North Korean military crossed the Ukrainian border were also not true.
About 3,000 North Korean soldiers are currently in training camps and will soon increase to 2,000, President Zelensky said. "These troops include officers and soldiers."
President Zelensky also explained that "North Korean forces will send a detailed request after obtaining official status as an army that came to fight Ukrainian citizens," adding, "This will include artillery and air defense systems."
