The South Korean president announced that the South Korean delegation will conduct a briefing for the EU's Political and Security Committee on Tuesday before visiting Ukraine to meet with intelligence and defence officials to exchange battlefield information and discuss potential cooperation.

Yoon Suk-yeol stressed that military cooperation between Russia and North Korea, which he called illegal, undermines "the rules-based international order and poses a threat to peace on the Korean Peninsula and globally".
