As UNIAN wrote, in July 2022, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine announced the severance of diplomatic relations with North Korea after Pyongyang recognized the “independence” of the Donbas territories temporarily occupied by the Russian army.
In November, South Korea’s ambassador to the United Nations, Jongkuk Hwang, said that, according to available estimates, North Korea has transferred about 9.4 million artillery shells to Russia for the war against Ukraine.
The representative of the USA for special political issues, Ambassador Robert Wood, reported that North Korea is preparing to transfer even more ballistic missiles to Russia to target Ukrainian cities. Earlier, at the request of Russia, North Korea illegally transferred more than 18,000 containers of shells and ammunition-related materials and more than 100 ballistic missiles for use against Ukraine.
