Ukraine’s Zelensky urges allies to take action on North Korea, supply long-range weapons
In a Telegram video, President Volodymyr Zelensky says ‘the first thousands of soldiers from North Korea are near the Ukrainian border’
“The first thousands of soldiers from North Korea are near the Ukrainian border. Ukrainians will be forced to defend themselves against them,” he said. “And the world will watch again.”
Zelensky said Ukraine had pinpointed every location where North Korean soldiers were posted in Russia. But Kyiv’s Western allies, he said, had not supplied the long-range weapons needed to strike them.
“But instead of such necessary long-range capability, America watches, Britain watches, Germany watches …,” he said.
“Everyone in the world who truly wants the Russian war against Ukraine not to expand … must not just watch. They must act. Words about the inadmissibility of escalation and expansion of war must be matched with actions.”
