South Korea issued a demand to Russia to condemn the cooperation between Russia and North Korea, calling for the withdrawal of North Korean troops from Russia's war with Ukraine.
Ukrainian intelligence suggests North Korea was preparing to send 10,000 soldiers to join Russian forces, according to Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. Greg Wehner is a breaking news reporter for Fox News Digital.
The South Korean Foreign Ministry said Russian Ambassador Georgy Zinoviev met with Vice South Korean Foreign Minister Kim Hong-kyun, when the latter "condemned in the strongest terms" the North’s sending of troops to help Russia, which Kim said poses "a grave security threat" to South Korea and the international community.
