Quote: "Now we are seeing all the sites where Russia is accumulating these North Korean soldiers on its territory – all their camps. We could launch preventive strikes if we had the capability to hit with sufficient range. And it depends on our partners. Yet instead of providing the much-needed long-range capabilities, America is watching, the UK is watching, Germany is watching. Everyone is just waiting for the North Korean military to start targeting Ukrainians."

Details: The President stressed that everyone who really wants Russia's war against Ukraine not to spread in Europe should not just watch, but act.

Zelenskyy said the only thing uniting Pyongyang and Moscow is their desire to fight. In addition, he pointed out, all the logistics between Russia and North Korea that is helping Russia’s aggressive actions should be blocked. This depends, in particular, on the strong Asian powers, such as China, which talks so much about ending the war, Zelenskyy said.
