North Korea has reaffirmed its unwavering support for Russia's war in Ukraine. Kim Jong Un, during a meeting with Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, expressed unconditional support for Russia's actions and predicted a Russian victory. Reports indicate that North Korea has sent approximately 11,000 troops to fight alongside Russia. This comes as the US, under President Trump, has resumed military aid to Ukraine. The alliance between North Korea and Russia was solidified in June 2022 with an accord promising mutual support against aggression.
