The Big Lie - “DPRK Troops in Ukraine “
There is a false story circulating about the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK ) sending troops to fight in Ukraine on the side of the Russian Federation . Both the Ukrainian fascist and south Korean puppet regime are vocal and very active in spreading this story as is the mainstream media and governments of various Western countries . Various figures are bandied around ; “1,500 troops “ , “3,000 troops “ , “10,000 troops “ and “12,000 troops “ . This in itself makes the story suspect and smacks of it made up as different numbers are given.
Recently , the British Defence Secretary John Healy claimed “It is very likely that the current movement of hundreds of combat troops from North Korea to Russia has begun …"It is shocking that North Korean soldiers support Russia's war of aggression against European soil," but Healy did not offer any hard evidence that DPRK troops were in Russia . Foreign Secretary David Lammy went even further and issued a joint statement with the south Korean puppets condemning the DPRK for its non-existent troop presence in Russia . The German government even summoned the DPRK Ambassador in Germany to the German Foreign Ministry .
However the facts are that there are no DPRK troops in Russia . On Monday 21st of October the DPRK representative at the UN said “ As for the so-called military cooperation with Russia, my delegation does not feel any need for comment on such groundless stereotyped rumours," Earlier on the 10th of October Russian government spokesman Dmitry Peskov stated that “ This looks like another hoax” when asked DPRK troops in Russia.Two years ago in 2022, on the 8th of November the vice director for Military Foreign Affairs of the Ministry of National Defence of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea said that “We once again make clear that we have never had "arms dealings" with Russia and that we have no plan to do so in the future.”
The evidence offered so far has been patchy .Firstly , there was the standard blurry satellite pictures from the CIA disinfo outfit NKNews supposedly showing DPRK ships leaving Chongjin for Russia . Now(assuming the picture is real) there was no evidence that the ships actually were transporting troops , it could have been coal for example . Why use ships anyway , wouldn’t it make more sense to send them by rail or by air which would be quicker . Also a video was circulated supposedly showing DPRK troops arriving in Russia but the uniforms are not the uniforms of the Korean People’s Army . The troops could have been Laotian or Mongolian troops on joint exercises with the Russian Federation or actually ethnic Koreans living in Russia.
The DPRK has never deployed 10,000 troops outside the country at any point in its history. A small number of KPA troops and air force pilots were deployed to Vietnam during the war against the US imperialists . Similarly KPA Air Force pilots fought in Egypt and Syria in 1973 but the numbers were small . The DPRK also deployed a small number of trainers or specialists in about a dozen countries in the past but there was no way that this figure reached 10,000 .
The DPRK would not send troops abroad when it is facing threats from the US and south Korea .
In fact it is south Korea that has troops and mercenaries in Ukraine and is supply weapons and giving aid to the Ukrainian fascist regime
The “DPRK troops in Ukraine “ story is a false story being spread by both the Ukrainian and south Korean fascist regimes . Comrade Kim Yo Jong , vice department director of the Central Committee of the Workers Party of Korea said of both south Korea and Ukraine “ Seoul and Kiev are exact counterparts in going about begging and letting loose reckless remarks against nuclear weapons states at random without follow-up capability.
It seems to be a common feature of bad dogs bred by the U.S."
This false story is being used to demonise the DPRK once again . It is very reminiscent of the story of the so-called “Weapons of Mass Destruction “ in Iraq which were used to justify the US invasion of Iraq and Iraq war but never existed and were never found .
