PYONGYANG: A recent article by Ro Ju Hyon, an international affairs analyst from the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, sheds light on what is described as the reckless military aid to Ukraine orchestrated by the United States with the alleged involvement of South Korea.
Titled “Reckless military aid to Ukraine is suicidal act of inviting disaster,” the article critiques the role played by South Korea in the supply of 155 mm artillery shells to Ukraine.
The Washington Post’s report on December 4 revealed that the US, taking over from South Korea, supplied a significant amount of 155 mm artillery shells to Ukraine this year, surpassing the contributions of European countries. The Biden administration, facing the challenge of meeting Ukrainian demand for shells, reportedly engaged in negotiations with South Korea, leading to the initiation of shell deliveries earlier this year.
The disclosure contradicts South Korea’s previous assertions that it had never supplied lethal weapons to Ukraine, exposing what the article labels as a “shameless fraud.” Despite earlier warnings from Russia, South Korea allegedly provided a substantial quantity of shells to Ukrainian authorities, surpassing European contributions. The article criticizes this as a pro-U.S. action, putting even staunch anti-Russia policies of the West into the shade.
The political and military authorities of South Korea, accused of employing deceitful tactics to maintain friendly relations with Russia while secretly providing military support, now face global scrutiny as the truth comes to light. The article contends that rendering military support to Ukraine is a manifestation of hostility towards Russia and a war criminal act that exacerbates the ongoing Ukrainian crisis.
The international community, as per the article, should discern the hidden intentions behind South Korea’s actions, denouncing their alleged collaboration with the U.S. in supporting Ukraine. It calls for collective efforts to thwart what it perceives as anti-peace moves orchestrated by the U.S. and its allies, emphasizing the potential catastrophic consequences of South Korea’s choices.
