North Korea sends troops to fight with Russia in Ukraine, Seoul says | BBC News

North Korea has started sending troops to fight with Russia in Ukraine, South Korea's spy agency has said as Seoul warned of a "grave security threat".
The allegation comes a day after Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said he believed 10,000 North Korean soldiers could join the war, based on intelligence information.
South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol called for a security meeting on Friday and said the international community must respond with "all available means".
According to the spy agency, 1,500 troops have already arrived in Russia - with anonymous sources telling South Korean media the final figure could be closer to 12,000.

What is wrong with North Korea sending troops to Russia if America is sending troops Israel

[@SethiozProject]

america is like global peace keepers, they do this to prevent those cavemen from blowing up half the world, but orcs do this for personal gain. you think america gains anything by sending troops to other countries? NO .. they are losing money and people, but they do this to keep the peace and to prevent any further damage to this planet. america wouldn't need to send any troops if those cavemen would stop fighting eachother on daily basis, but orcs would invade and conquer entire earth if they had the power to do so. that's the difference between america and orcs. america already HAS the power to conquer the world, but they choose not to, while orcs are dreaming of having enough power to conque the world. give them enough weapons and power and they'd take over earth as fast as possible.

Absolutely no evidence for this whatsoever even if it was true there are NATO special forces fighting in Ukraine and countless NATO country foreign fighters and ~50 billion dollars worth of NATO equipment and over 100 billion in EU, UK and US cash in Ukraine. Double standards is hilarious.

@@SergyMilitaryRankings At no point did I deny there are troops from NATO nations within Ukraine - it's clearly true that there are foreign fighters from NATO based nations supporting Ukrainians. What I called out was the fact that you criticized another commenter for not providing facts but then gave yourself artistic license to say 'countless' foreign troops. Either those numbers can be counted, or they can't. You were caught trying to sell story that there's infinite NATO troops in Ukraine - which is impossible.
