00:00Russian dictator Vladimir Putin shows no signs of seeking peace.
00:04On the contrary, it intends to escalate the war and is preparing to incorporate an additional 30,000 North Korean soldiers.
00:13as well as North Korean ballistic missile launchers.
00:18Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky announced this information.
00:23According to the head of state, preparations for the reception of new North Korean military personnel have been underway since June.
00:31in the Borones region of Russia.
00:33We also see Russia's cooperation with North Korea.
00:37Russia wants to receive another 30,000 soldiers from North Korea, Zelensky declared.
00:42Since June, preparations have been underway in the Russian region of Borones to receive them.
00:49According to estimates, Pyongyang has already transferred approximately 12,000 troops to the Russian border region of Kursk.
00:56within the framework of a mutual defense pact signed with Moscow in 2024.
01:01Throughout the four years of war, Russian President Vladimir Putin has increasingly relied on
01:07North Korea
01:08for the supply of artillery shells and missiles.
01:11The incorporation of North Korean troops raises concerns about a possible transfer of Russian military knowledge.
01:19to the Kim Jong-un regime in Pyongyang.
01:22Russia is helping North Korea learn how to wage war and improve its weaponry.
01:28and to gain real combat experience in its use, Zelensky stated.
01:32All of this represents a threat to everyone in Asia within range of North Korean missiles.
01:39We're going to counteract this, he added.
01:42Russia is helping the DPRK Armed Forces to improve their fighting skills and modernize their weaponry.
01:50In this sense, military cooperation between Moscow and Pyongyang threatens not only Ukraine,
01:56but also to other countries, particularly those in Asia.
02:00Furthermore, the Ukrainian leader again cited intelligence data,
02:05According to which the Russian regime is preparing to expand mobilization in Russia.
02:10The president cited figures on casualties and reinforcements of the Russian army corresponding to the first seven months of this year.
02:17According to him, 221,000 people joined the Russian Occupation Forces during that period,
02:24while losses amounted to almost 225,500,
02:29of which 131,000 were killed and almost 93,000 were injured.
02:35As previously reported, Zelensky had stated a day earlier that Ukrainian intelligence
02:41It has clear information about Russia's plans to carry out a new wave of mobilization.
02:47We have clear intelligence that Russia is preparing a new wave of mobilization for the fall.
02:54"Quite significant," the president stated.
02:57The president noted that Russian troops are currently losing more personnel on the front than they can recruit.
03:05At the same time, Putin intends to expand the war,
03:09Therefore, it needs new occupants to participate in the raids.
03:12In this regard, the head of state stressed the need for a preemptive response from Ukraine at all levels,
03:20which includes actions on the front lines, long-range attacks, and diplomacy.
03:25According to the president, the Ukrainian side is committed to maintaining dialogue with all those who can bring peace closer.
