Nja, volgens mij hebben Noord-Koreanen nog minder algemene kennis dan een gemiddelde Nepalees. Zo rijden trucks in NK niet eens op diesel, maar op een mix van houtsnippers en nog wat zaken. En zijn ze meestal ondervoed, geen vaccinaties, etc.quote:Op woensdag 19 juni 2024 13:07 schreef skrn het volgende:

Alles kan. Rusland stuurt ook Nepalezen, Indiërs of Afrikanen het slagveld op. Wat is dan het verschil met Noord-Koreanen?
Maar je hebt gelijk, je kan ze natuurlijk gewoon per truck vervoeren naar Oekraine en zeggen, jullie gaan nu rechtdoor lopen naar die heuvel toe. Doei.
Terwijl de russen dan via de flank aanvallen oid. Puur kanonnenvoer dus.
Opgeblazen gevoel of winderigheid? Zo opgelost met Rennie!
Verschil is dat het niet nepal, india of "afrika" is die gaan matten, maar individuen uit die landen.quote:

En; ja, NK zou het ook kunnen verpakken alsof die mensen 'vrijwillig' gaan vechten. Maar denk niet dat iemand daar enige waarde aan hecht.

''Tuurlijk is het een onoogelijk lelijk spuugding. Kun je d'r toch nog wel aan gehecht zijn? Je houdt toch ook van je moeder?''
Als je lui uit Afrika, Nepal, N-Korea en de gevangenis eerst kan inzetten is dat prima. Interesseert toch niemand als die sterven.quote:

De kans is inderdaad niet zo groot, maar ook niet totaal uit te sluiten. Het hangt er echt vanaf wat Putin Kim er voor terug geeft.quote:Op woensdag 19 juni 2024 12:27 schreef ExTec het volgende:

En Kim geeft net zo min om zijn soldaten als Putin om de zijne geeft.

quote:Putin says Russia and North Korea will help each other if attacked, taking ties to a ‘new level’
Vladimir Putin said Russia and North Korea have ramped up ties to a “new level,” pledging to help each other if either nation is attacked in a “breakthrough” new partnership announced during the Russian president’s rare visit to the reclusive state.
Thousands of North Koreans chanting “welcome Putin” lined the city’s wide boulevards brandishing Russian and North Korean flags and bouquets of flowers, as Putin kicked off his first visit to North Korea in 24 years with a finely choreographed display of influence in the dictatorship.
The pair then signed the new strategic partnership to replace previous deals signed in 1961, 2000 and 2001, according to Russian state news agency TASS. “The comprehensive partnership agreement signed today includes, among other things, the provision of mutual assistance in the event of aggression against one of the parties to this agreement,” Putin said after the meeting.

A Russian court on Wednesday sentenced a US soldier to three years and nine months in a penal colony on charges of theft and threatening murder, state news agency RIA Novosti reported.
Staff Sgt. Gordon Black was arrested in May on charges of theft in the far eastern city of Vladivostok, where he had traveled to visit a woman, believed to be his girlfriend. He was accused of stealing 10,000 rubles (roughly $112) from her when he visited Russia in April after meeting her in South Korea, state news agency TASS previously reported.
Black was also accused of assaulting the woman during a quarrel.
The US soldier did not admit to charges of threatening to kill the woman, but partially admitted guilt to theft charges, RIA Novosti previously reported.
Black will appeal the sentence handed down by the court in Vladivostok, his lawyer said Wednesday, according to TASS.

quote:US and key allies debating what commitment to give on Ukraine joining NATO at upcoming summit
The United States and several key allies, including the United Kingdom, are actively debating how strongly to commit to Ukraine’s NATO membership at the alliance’s upcoming 75th anniversary summit in Washington, with the US facing criticism from a variety of European countries for not being willing to go as far as several – especially those close to Russia’s border – would like, according to multiple US and European sources familiar with the discussions.
US and German officials have proposed that the alliance pledge during next month’s summit that Ukraine has a “bridge” to NATO membership, rather than an “irreversible path” as NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg said in April in language that is favored by the UK and several Eastern and Central European nations, multiple sources familiar with the discussions told CNN.
The eventual language issued by the alliance about Ukraine during July’s summit in Washington is critical. It will be painstakingly debated by the allies in the days leading up and then heavily scrutinized, as it will outline to the world – Russia in particular – what the goals are for Ukraine within NATO.

quote:Kharkiv regional governor awaiting end of probe before commenting on possible lack of fortifications
The Kharkiv Oblast Military Administration is awaiting the conclusions of the investigation into the breach of the border by Russian troops
The Kharkiv regional military administration is waiting for the conclusions of the investigation into the fact that Russian troops breached the state border in Kharkiv Oblast.
This is how regional governor Oleg Synegubov answered the question from Ukrinform about whether Vovchansk was sufficiently fortified.
The journalist noted that, according to the information spread online, since the liberation in 2022, Vovchansk was not sufficiently fortified or had no defense structures at all, and therefore the Russians seemingly easily entered it a second time. He asked Synegubov to comment on this.
"Let's not connect what was done with regard to the fortifications in particular, and why the Russians entered relatively easily or not easily. All the same, our soldiers met them with a fight," answered the governor.
He added that the State Bureau of Investigation is already probing this and the administration is waiting for its conclusions.
On the night of May 10, 2024, the Russians launched a new wave of offensive in Kharkiv Oblast. The Russian invasion forces tried to break through the Ukrainian defense line under the cover of armored vehicles. The Ukrainian Armed Forces sent reserve units there.
On May 22, the Verkhovna Rada voted for the creation of a temporary special commission regarding the use of budget funds for the construction of fortifications and the production of drones. The purpose of the TSC is to find out whether the works on the construction of fortifications were completed, to what extent, by whom and how budget funds were used.

Denmark on June 18 announced its 19th assistance package for Ukraine, including financial support for Ukraine's defense industry, equipment for F-16 fighter jets, and donations from Danish military stocks.
The first Danish F-16s are scheduled to arrive in Ukraine this summer. Kyiv expects to receive the aircraft also from the Netherlands, Belgium, and Norway.
As part of Copenhagen's commitment to supporting Ukraine for the next 10 years, the country has developed a donation model via the Ukrainian defense industry to help directly develop Ukraine's military production.
The 19th package will allow the use of the sum of 1.2 billion Danish kroner (over $170 million) allocated under the two most recent packages to quickly meet Ukraine's needs. The first donations should begin this summer.
"Europe is at a fateful moment. Russia's war against Ukraine has been going on for over two years, and the situation on the battlefield is dire," Danish Foreign Minister Lars Loekke Rasmussen said.
"Investing in the Ukrainian defense industry is an effective and sustainable way to support Ukrainian combat capability, both here and now and in the long term."
Denmark has already allocated 64.8 billion Danish kroner (over $9 billion) in military aid under its Ukraine fund for the period of 2023-2028.

Ukrainian air defense shot down 19 of the 21 Shahed-type attack drones launched by Russia overnight on June 19, Ukraine's Air Force reported.
Russia reportedly launched the drones from Prymorsko-Akhtarsk in Russia's Krasnodar Krai and occupied Crimea.
Ukraine intercepted the drones over Kherson, Mykolaiv, Dnipropetrovsk, Kirovohrad, Khmelnytskyi, and Lviv oblasts. Mobile fire groups of the Ukrainian Air Force were involved in repelling the air attacks.
Earlier in the night, the drones targeted the regions over western Ukraine.
In the Malehiv neighborhood of the city of Lviv, a 70-year-old man was hospitalized as a result of falling drone debris around 4 a.m. local time. A multi-story building and an office building were damaged in the drone attacks, Lviv Mayor Andrii Sadovyi reported on Telegram.
Drone attacks are a daily occurrence in Ukraine, affecting various regions across the country.
In recent months, Russian attacks on critical infrastructure have increasingly targeted Ukrainian energy facilities.

On June 19, Vladimir Putin announced that the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK) and the Russian Federation have signed an agreement for a “comprehensive strategic partnership,” which includes provisions for mutual assistance in the event of aggression against either party.
Putin also announced a new “fundamental document” that will form the basis of long-term relationships”, as well as the countries’ joint struggle against the “hegemonic imperialist policy of the United States and its satellites imposed for decades.”
Kim Jong-Un met the Russian leader with a parade and billboard portraits of Putin along the roads.
“Putin is the dearest friend of the Korean people, and Russia is the most honest ally,” Kim Jong-Un.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov has confirmed the agreement signed between Russia and North Korea contains a mutual defense clause, commenting to Russian media: “In accordance with article four of the treaty, there is an agreement to provide assistance to each other in the event of aggression against any contracting country.”
The agreement was signed during Putin’s first official visit to North Korea in 24 years.

Russia has deployed most of its military and equipment, which was concentrated at the border with Finland, to Ukraine.
A high-ranking source in Finnish intelligence shared this with the Finnish newspaper Yle.
“Russia is scaring NATO countries with World War III, but at least near Finland, it does not seem to be preparing for war,” the newspaper said.
The released satellite images show that the garrisons and military bases of the Russian ground forces near the Finnish border are basically empty.
“On average, 80 percent of the equipment and soldiers have been redeployed to the war in Ukraine,” the Finnish intelligence officers said.

Zolang Trump maar geen president wordt. Want er was ook al vermeld dat deze overeenkomst niet vast zal worden gelegd in de wet, tenminste niet direct. Dus Trump zou deze heel gemakkelijk de prullenbak in kunnen gooien (wat hij ongetwijfeld zal doen).

Zo te lezen gaat Amerika naar aanleiding van de ondertekende veiligheidsovereenkomst inderdaad ook F-16s aan Oekraïne leveren, of deze in beheer van Amerika blijven of in beheer van Oekraïne zelf komen is niet helemaal duidelijk voor mij. Natuurlijk is het ook de vraag wanneer dit zal gebeuren, daar het om een 10-jarige overeenkomst gaat.quote:US Confirms Plans to Station F-16 Jets on the Territory of Ukraine
US-supplied F-16 fighter jets will be stationed within Ukrainian territory, according to the White House National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan in an interview on PBS on June 19.
He noted that the bilateral security agreement between the United States and Ukraine reinforces that the provided F-16 aircraft will be located on Ukrainian soil.
“The plan is to put the F-16s in Ukraine. And the bilateral security agreement that the president and President Zelenskyy signed reinforced this point, that we want to help Ukraine have this capability. It should be a capability based in Ukraine,” Sullivan said.
He further emphasized that Ukraine can, in the event of a threat, use the provided air defense systems, including those recently delivered by the US to target Russian aircraft, even if they’re within Russian airspace.
“Well, first, we are permitting Ukrainian forces to attack Russian forces using Russia as a sanctuary in the areas where on the battlefield they are attacking from inside Russia with artillery, with other ground-based munitions.” Sullivan then expands, saying, that “they can use air defense systems, including those supplied by the United States, to take Russian planes out of the sky, even if those Russian planes are in Russian airspace, if they’re about to fire into Ukrainian airspace.”
On June 13, during the Summit on Peace for Ukraine in Switzerland, Ukraine and the United States signed a 10-year bilateral security agreement to share weapons, intelligence, long-term training, and joint weapons production.
Zolang Trump maar geen president wordt. Want er was ook al vermeld dat deze overeenkomst niet vast zal worden gelegd in de wet, tenminste niet direct. Dus Trump zou deze heel gemakkelijk de prullenbak in kunnen gooien (wat hij ongetwijfeld zal doen).

quote:French far-right leader Bardella says he backs Ukraine, but rules out sending troops or long-range weapons
Jordan Bardella, the leader of the far-right French National Rally party, said on June 19 that he would continue supporting Ukraine if elected prime minister, but ruled out sending French troops or supplying the country with long-range weapons.
Following a bruising defeat in the elections for the European Parliament earlier in June, French President Emmanuel Macron called for snap elections to be held on June 30 and July 7.
National Rally is ahead in current polls, and Bardella could be the next prime minister if the party is able to form a governing coalition. Macron would nonetheless remain president and retain control of most of France's foreign policy decisions.
