Ukraine's struggle for independence continues to spread in waves.
The Russian army's occupation policies have moved to another dimension while seeking support.
North Korea has stated that it will support Russia, also considering its own interests.
Of course, the North Korean people did not welcome this situation very much.
The North Koreans who opposed the government did the best thing they have done for many years and fled to South Korea.
The North Koreans who have already escaped have signed a major incident.
Let's take a look at this development that has driven the North Korean leader crazy.
Approximately 200 North Korean deserters, most of whom have a military background and are living in South Korea, want to be deployed to Ukraine in order to wage a psychological war against the Pyongyang troops reportedly deployed to Russia.
The group, made up of veterans with up to 10 years of military experience, is ready to use their insider knowledge of North Korean military culture to disrupt and demoralize Kim Jong-un’s troops. South Korea’s Immigration Administration says North Koreans who have fled the repressive regime are eager to join the Ukraine war.
Ahn Chan-il, a deserter and head of the World Institute for North Korean Studies, commented on the situation: “We are veterans who understand the military mindset of North Korea better than anyone else.
The group is ready to work as psychological operations operators, such as making loudspeaker broadcasts, preparing and distributing leaflets, and acting as interpreters.”
The proposal reflects the anger shared by the more than 30,000 Northern deserters currently living in South Korea, the report said.
The defectors are alarmed by Kim Jong-un’s aggression and disregard for international law while sending troops to aid Russia.
As former North Korean soldiers, we are ready to go to the front, wage psychological warfare, rescue these soldiers and eliminate the North’s mercenary policies, the defectors said.
Drawing on their deep understanding of North Korea’s military culture, the defectors believe they can exploit weaknesses and potentially encourage North Korean soldiers to turn their weapons.
Ahn, who deserted in 1979 while serving as a guard on the front lines and was inspired by South Korean loudspeaker broadcasts and leaflets, said the group could also persuade captured North Korean soldiers to desert if they fall into Ukrainian hands.
Many North Korean soldiers, including elite special forces, suffer from food shortages and malnutrition.
The soldiers you see in televised parades are a carefully selected few; they are the alpha of the entire population.
Another leading figure in the initiative, Lee Min-bok, addressed Ukraine directly and wrote an open letter to President Volodymyr Zelensky through the Ukrainian embassy in Seoul.
North Korean soldiers are there primarily as mercenaries, but we will go voluntarily, with a good-will mission.
Our presence in Ukraine alone could have a significant impact on the morale of North Korean troops.
Lee Min-bok expressed hope that the Ukrainian government would welcome their offer.
Let's take a look at why North Korean fugitives are so eager to help Ukrainian territory.
As we know, North Korea has a world-famous repressive system.
A large part of the country is fed up with this repressive system.
Almost all soldiers who get the chance choose to flee. The people do not like the way they are governed, but they secretly support the soldiers who escaped because they cannot make a big noise.
When the North Koreans who escaped from such an oppressive environment saw that their country was supporting Russia, they decided to do everything they could to change the balance of the scales.
Many North Korean deserters believe that they will create miracles by replacing the Ukrainian soldiers who were not ready on Ukrainian soil.
Of course, North Korean leader Kim Jong-un was very angry about this situation.
The strict leader, who is currently successfully running the oppressive system, plans to avenge this by adding the soldiers under his protection to the Russian army.
As we know, a lot of soldiers have been sent to the Russian army in the past weeks.
This situation was not welcomed by South Korea, which North Korea has declared an enemy.
North Korea's participation in the occupation of Ukrainian soil does not bode well at all.
North Korea is of course helping Russia in line with its own interests.
In the event of a possible war between the South and the North in the future, Kim Jong-un wants Russia's support.
Aware of this, South Korea has taken action to put a stop to all this.
