than friendship with the US/EU has been for Ukraine.
Having economy crushed by shock therapy, series of comprador governments, biggest human trafficiking source in Europe, people fleeing poverty left and right for 30 years, and finally being proxified into the attrition warfare sets this bar incredibly low though.

Yep, plus the DPRK has an interest in selling some of its missiles and getting troop training in a real combat scenario. The US isn't capable of sanctioning the DPRK any more than they already have been, so ironically this means the DPRK doesn't have to care as much how the west sees it.

And Russia's veto in the UN Security Council has helped undermine the enforcement of sanctions imposed on North Korea. The most astonishing thing is that, in terms of profit/loss, friendship with Russia has proven to be much more beneficial for North Korea than friendship with the US/EU has been for Ukraine.

>They just got access to trade with a continent sized country, with all sorts of resources they were previously denied. Sounds like a beneficial arrangement for the north koreans, in their situation.
If the North Korean troops who are having personal explosives delivered via drone were allowed to have an opinion, they'd beg to differ.

There is a zero percent chance of you dispelling this, given that this is a well understood concept, both in the west, and the east.
Again, I don't believe that *you* believe what you're saying.
You're just doing a bit like on 4chan.

To a most propagandised western mind, truth seems so ridiculous, it reflexively refuse it outright. Coincidentally, it is exactly what CIA aimed to achieve.

He doesn't kill political opponents just to watch them bleed? My point is that he does things for reasons.
The fact that Westoids can only imagine Russians as subhuman violent idiots is fascinating.

He's not a demon that craves blood for no reason. There's geostrategic goals at stake.

The Koreans went in to help Putin fight the Ukrainian Nazi regime that was propped up by the US empire. A noble and just cause. Even though the loss of life is always tragic, at least they went for the greater good
