Russia and North Korea: Military alliance is increasing in the Ukraine conflict!

Pawlohrad, Ukraine - since February 24, 2022, Ukraine has been defending itself against the Russian invasion, which is now considered a serious humanitarian and military crisis. The military location in the east of Ukraine is particularly difficult, and despite the efforts of the Ukrainian army to keep a small Russian area in the Kursk region, this position was strongly pushed back. In view of the unclear information, the information about the fights can often not be verified, which makes the situation more complex. Today, on April 28, 2025, the current developments shed light on the ongoing conflict and the geopolitical tensions between Russia and the West.

Russia is currently demonstrating its military partnership with North Korea by offering military support if necessary. Kremlin spokesman Dmitri Peskow emphasizes the effectiveness of the strategic partnership agreement between the two countries. President Vladimir Putin has officially confirmed the use of North Korean soldiers in Russia and thanks them for their support in the Kursk region. These developments show how Russia tries to strengthen its military resources through international alliances and thus to secure its influence in the post -Soviet area.

peace negotiations and international reactions

German foreign policy sees considerable pressure, especially after CDU general secretary Carsten Linnemann criticized the silence of Chancellor Olaf Scholz and Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock to Ukraine. He emphasizes that Ukraine will be a priority of the new government, which indicates a possible change of course in German foreign policy, especially under a future Chancellor Friedrich Merz.

inner and external conflicts

In Russia, violence increases, as a recent bomb attack on the Russian General Jaroslaw illustrates Moskalik, in which a suspect was arrested. On the same day there was a Russian drone attack on Pawlohrad in Ukraine, which resulted in at least one dead and several injuries. Such attacks illustrate the cruel reality of the war and show that the spiral of violence continues to be unbroken.

The military reform of Russia, which has been promoted since 2008, has apparently made weaknesses that came to light in the Ukraine War. While Russia is trying to maintain its grandmother status and establish a multipolar world order, the United States remains the most important reference size in Russian foreign and security policy. NATO has also seen Russia as a clear opponent since the attack on Ukraine. The military challenges that Russia faces, and the economic sanctions of the West exacerbate the country's vulnerability and also influence the global markets and the global south, which are dependent on Russian raw materials.
