European Union: Russia cooperates with North Korea to provide weapons

Brussels – European Union Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Josep Borrell confirmed that Russia is cooperating with North Korea to provide weapons for its war on Ukraine.

This came in a statement he made to reporters, Thursday, on the sidelines of his participation in the meeting of foreign ministers of NATO countries in the Belgian capital, Brussels.

Borrell explained that the number of NATO member states when it was founded 75 years ago was 12, and that the number has now risen to 32 countries.

He added: “Russia’s use of veto power once morest North Korea’s ballistic missile control project shows the closeness between Russia and North Korea and how they work together to provide weapons to attack Ukraine.”

The European official stated that the military support provided to Ukraine is not sufficient, and that the volume and quantity of support should be increased in a short time.

He explained that Russia targeted civilians and infrastructure in Ukraine, considering that “this shows only one thing, which is that we must continue to support and make more efforts to protect civilians and ensure the ability of Ukrainians to resist attack.”

Since February 24, 2022, Russia has been launching a military operation in Ukraine, and to end it, it stipulates that Kiev abandons plans to join military entities, which the latter considers an interference in its sovereignty.
