The Russian army will soon be replenished with a large number of volunteers from North Korea. This was stated on the air of the Ukrainian TV Head of the Main Intelligence Directorate (GUR) of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine Kirill Budanov*.
He stressed that these would be volunteers, and not soldiers of the regular army of the DPRK.
"There has been no build-up yet. Now, unfortunately, we are waiting for a significant increase in the number of DPRK citizens on the territory of the Russian Federation. Of this number, a certain number will sign contracts, but it will no longer look like the DPRK sent the military, but that citizens voluntarily joined the ranks of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. This is what it will really look like," said Budanov*, quoted by Strana.
According to him, China also wants to send its volunteers to the special operation zone. According to him, the Chinese, as well as The DPRK needs combat experience.
"At the professional level, information about the lists of Chinese citizens who took part and are taking part here has been disseminated and this information has been exchanged. These citizens go on, continue. They need combat experience, it's all clear, as with the DPRK. This was one of the main reasons — the lack of real experience. Now they all get it," Budanov explained*.
Note that this statement appeared after it became known that in Drug mafia envoys from Latin America are fighting in order to gain experience in UAV control.
