If US and NATO are supporting Ukraine I didn’t see what’s the problem if China and North Korea support Russia…

AmbiguousProps ,

It’s almost like Ukraine is better than NK, from a moral and logical perspective. Ukraine isn’t starving their own people, nor are they “disappearing” the local Muslim population á-la China. They’re simply defending themselves.

TheBigBrother , (edited )

According to you logic US it’s supporting Israel so I believe your “moral” and “logic” is pretty twisted…

AmbiguousProps ,

The US isn’t sending troops into Gaza. This story is about NK sending troops into Ukraine. It’s not hard to see the clear difference.

TheBigBrother , (edited )

Nice slippery slope…

Edit: Israel didn’t even need soldiers, Palestinians didn’t even have weapons to defend themselves and are starving to death, so money and weapons will do the work to continue with the genocide.

AmbiguousProps ,

Huh? In what way was what I said a “slippery slope”? This article is literally talking about NK sending troops to Ukraine. I wasn’t even the one to bring up NATO or the US in the first place.

I wholeheartedly believe Palestine should be freed and that we shouldn’t be supplying weapons at all. The genocide is disgusting. But at least the US isn’t using US troops, nor are they doing trade deals to send more poor people into Gaza (like NK and Russia are doing in this article, except in Ukraine instead of Gaza).

Sorry but sending arms or soldiers is equally bad

It’s definitely not.

Best to block and move on. There’s no useful dialogue to be had - many have tried.

There they are! The gENoSiDe JoE contingent. Still a bunch of y’all wandering around unblocked. Not to worry!

Remind me how many Neo-Nazi battalions are in the DPRK? Or where in the DPRK constitution there is a provision to protect their gene pool?

AmbiguousProps ,

What does that have to do with anything? Are you attempting to say Ukraine has those and therefore all of Ukraine deserves to be killed? Good job attempting to change the subject, I guess. Better invade every country on earth since Nazis are literally everywhere, civilian casualties be damned. Better invade your own country too.

PS. Russia does not actually care about Nazis, they have their own after all. They only want Ukraine’s land, ports, and people.

The Neo-Nazis are in Russia working with NK.

I don’t think anyone is saying they shouldn’t be allowed to do it; just that they think it’s going to go poorly

Also I would add that it’s a moderately dire sign as far as the state of Russia’s manpower levels. Every country at war desperately wants more soldiers at all times but some desperates are more desperate than other desperates.

You don’t see the difference in supporting a country defending itself from being invaded versus aiding a country that is invading?

banghida ,

They probably don’t see it, no.

Tankies are too busy being edgy to care about glaring nuance.

If China directly supports Russia NATO will throw sanctions on them and that will hurt China. China is supporting Russia, but they are walking a find line as China cannot afford to make NATO mad. (NATO also will hurt, which is why NATO is looking the other way, but how long will NATO put up with China is an open question)

jaybone ,

All the west should sanction China. But we need to have toilet paper production back onshore first.

Financial support and sending foreign soldiers directly to the frontline are two very different kinds of involvement. Imagine the Russian freakout if NATO actually sent soldiers to fight in Ukraine. Maybe the North Koreans will actually speed that process up.

Of course you don’t see the problem. You can’t seem to see the problem with a lot of issues. Your average post score is -20. Maybe you should do some self reflection, or maybe you’re just a naive 20-something and will grow out of it

UncleBilly ,

Sometime back kim was crying so that women make more babies, now he is sending men to his friend. And we know the mortality rate of North Korea. I have never seen a country run out of people, I think I will see it soon

echodot ,

I’m sure that will be really helpful, I bet they’re really well trained and have lots of modern equipment that isn’t just painted wood.

So did I hear that the US is considering letting “contractors” take Ukrainian contracts? Blackrock would ruin these morons!

So did I hear that the US is considering letting “contractors” take Ukrainian contracts?

The US has been sending “advisers” into Ukraine since the war began. And we’ve had intelligence officers in this country for decades.

Blackrock would ruin these morons!

Mercenaries and auxiliaries are useless and dangerous; and if one holds his state based on these arms, he will stand neither firm nor safe; for they are disunited, ambitious, and without discipline, unfaithful, valiant before friends, cowardly before enemies; they have neither the fear of God nor fidelity to men, and destruction is deferred only so long as the attack is; for in peace one is robbed by them, and in war by the enemy. The fact is, they have no other attraction or reason for keeping the field than a trifle of stipend, which is not sufficient to make them willing to die for you.

    Why would you possibly think it’s good news for Ukraine?

    Ulfhethnar ,

    It is not yet, but NK is already supplying the artillery which is much more valuable than men to Russia and Korea will surely respond by suppling Ukraine.

    snailfact ,

    can we get 1 like for the brave soldiers

    phoenixz ,

    So does that mean that NATO can also start deploying troops there? I mean, so far we’ve kept out to not escalate this, but if actual foreign troops will set foot on that front line, you can only wait so long for the other side to do the same…

    FiniteBanjo ,

    No, because Ukraine is not a NATO member because they cannot join while already at war. If the USA got involved directly then the international community in the UN and even NATO itself would have mixed responses, perhaps even leading to NATO withdrawals and economic sanctions.

    However, the USA have started allowing private mercenary companies to participate directly in the conflict, and they’ve had indirect support specialists from the US Military in the region for a long time.

    phoenixz ,

    You’re right, but I meant it more sarcastically. Russia started the conflict and is escalating it at every turn that it can, hoping the west will back down and too ma y times we have. I’m pretty sure that the backing down is just about over by now, though

    Ain’t this a good thing the more fudder sent to the front lines the high chance NK will have less capable soldiers in their country. Unless people being sent to front lines were potential issues in NK. I bet US intelligence would be interested on seeing how NK soldiers operates in actual combat.

    In response to that Pyongyang announced early this week that it will be sending troops in the form of a military engineering unit to support Russian forces on the ground in the Donetsk region. The troops are expected to arrive on the battlefield as soon as next month.

    One engineering unit isn’t much, but perhaps there is more to come. It didn’t say anything in the article about future commitments.

    Ilya Ponomarev, a former Russian member of parliament told the UK’s Daily Express that North Korea has become an important bridge between the Kremlin and China. Beijing can indirectly transfer military equipment to Moscow through Pyongyang without falling foul of Western sanctions.

    As he explained: “North Korea is one of key Russian partners and the meaning of the rationale behind them becoming such a partner is because they are acting as a bridge between China and Russia.

    “Essentially all the military equipment that is delivered from North Korea was developed for the North Koreans by the Chinese.

    Perhaps this is less about North Korea then it appears on the surface. I wonder what Russia is giving China for this help?
