North Korea may send its troops to Ukraine to assist Russia, according to South Korea's National Defence Ministry head, Kim En-hyun. This move is likely due to a mutual treaty similar to a military alliance between Russia and North Korea, often referred to as Putin's Pact. South Korean defense minister has indicated that casualties among North Korean forces are expected. Reports from Seoul and Ukrainian media suggest that North Korean troops are already fighting and dying in Ukraine, making their deployment highly likely.
