Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky revealed on Thursday that North Korean troops had suffered casualties in clashes with Ukrainian forces. Speaking at a news conference during the European Political Community summit in Budapest, Zelensky discussed the involvement of North Korean soldiers in the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. He stated that some of the 11,000 North Korean troops deployed to Russia’s Kursk region had participated in the fighting, marking a significant escalation in the involvement of foreign troops on Russia's side.

Zelensky expressed concern that, without decisive action, additional North Korean troops could be sent to support Russian forces. He emphasized that the situation could worsen unless the international community responds to these developments, as the presence of foreign troops could lead to greater military escalation. Zelensky's comments highlighted the growing complexity of the war, with multiple countries potentially becoming involved on either side of the conflict.

The involvement of North Korean soldiers in the war in Ukraine has raised alarm, particularly given the country’s historical ties to Russia. This marks an alarming expansion of military support for Moscow, which has already faced severe international sanctions over its invasion of Ukraine. Zelensky’s remarks underscore the urgent need for global action to address the increasing militarization of the conflict and the potential for further foreign interference.

While details of the clashes between Ukrainian and North Korean forces were scarce, Zelensky’s statement brings attention to the broader geopolitical implications of the war. The deployment of North Korean troops signifies a significant shift in the dynamics of the conflict and raises the stakes for Ukraine, which has been fighting to maintain its sovereignty against Russian aggression since 2014.
