Covid hit the DPRK very, very hard. It needs help, because it lacks medicine to prevent its people from dying. When they are sick, they are not planting or harvesting.
It is also a cheap way to get experience in modern warfare cheap.
Strangely there are no *** in Muslim majority nations. Weird how that works for a genetic condition.

And of course, Covid was a major problem for North Korea.
You can google this for yourselves.;

This is obviously a Chinese proxy army. They will get logistic and tactical support from China. Doubt China will enter Ukraine directly, they will be too busy in Taiwan.

N. Korea has thousands upon thousands of people who work abroad and send their wages back to N.

I do wonder of the timing, with the Pelosi visit to Taiwan
Just because something isn't reported on cnn doesn't mean it's not happening.

Google, did you say? The
Chinese proxy army. Same playbook as our Korean adventures.Monderegal » 05 Aug 2022, 10:58 am » wrote: ↑ I think it is highly unlikely. Russia would have extreme difficulties trying to enlist the North Korean army diplomatically. It might cause rifts even deeper than the current situation given the status of pariah on the Hermit Kingdom's standing in the world. Even if he could pull it off, the logistics would be a nightmare. Language barriers, differences in fighting forces, the fact that the North Korean army hasn't seen action since the Korean War just to name a few. The DPRK military is set on the mission of defending North Korea. Almost full stop. The notion that Russia would request support is far fetched but people will say just about anything on the internet.
