That's even more bad news if confirmed, one thing to send troops to charge to their deaths which would have been bad for Ukraine, a whole other thing to send fighter pilots, that'll be dangerous for Ukraine. But of course, nobody will do anything about it. Bunch of spineless dickheads. If fighter pilots are involved then this is rapidly escalating.

It's Russia (one of the biggest militaries in the world) and North Korea at war with Ukraine now, Ukraine is all on their own, with a million stupid fucking restrictions and inadequate support. They deserve someone to actually have their back. We're just letting them die on our behalf. Slapping them on the back with some old equipment and saying "good luck"

That is very disappointing. This is totally spineless.

Putin feels like a champ right now. NK soldiers in Russia preparing to fight on Russia's side? Nothing happens... BRICS meeting in Russia to discuss the future and sign some papers to strengthen their relations and economics...Trump going to win this election...Sarah Wagenknecht (who would love to be under Putins table) from the German party BSW just fucking around with the other parties at the coalition negotiations because of Ukraine...

Losing soldiers and equipment en masse? No problem, The West gives him as much time as he needs to take one Ukrainian village after the next.

South Korea is understandably upset at the news of its northern rival in sending troops to Ukraine.  I think that what they specifically have a problem with is that NK will now have experienced units whereas before they didn't have any that have served in a war.  They don't want NK to level up.  So, the goal is to make Russia want to send them back.  Here's a collection of a few articles that you can peruse at your own leisure:

South korea demands "immediate withdrawal" on NK troops from Ukraine

https://www.kyivpost.com/post/40855

I see a bigger support from South Korea incoming.

They got 35 T-80 and 70 BMP-3 plus 200+ 9K115 ATGM from Russia when they asked Russia to pay back Soviet debt, might be a good idea to send those to Ukraine if those are still in working order. They also have about 400 upgraded M48 Patton tanks which are slated to be replaced by the K1, so if the US gives their OK then they could also send a sizeable amount of those to Ukraine.

I'm thinking that Ukraine may be able to use this to complain to the U.S. in order to allow use of the missiles into russian territory.  And yeah, the tanks would definitely be appreciated.
