U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken said on Monday that Russia is set to expand its cooperation with North Korea by providing advanced satellite technology.
As a contingent of 12,000 North Korean troops has reportedly been sent to Russia to fight in the Kursk region, Moscow may reciprocate by offering further assistance to its Asian ally.
“The DPRK is already receiving Russian military equipment and training. Now we have reason to believe that Moscow intends to share advanced space and satellite technology with Pyongyang,” he told a news conference in Seoul.
This announcement comes as North Korea conducted a missile test during Antony Blinken’s visit to South Korea.
Meanwhile, Ukraine has launched a new offensive in the Kursk region, a border area with Russia that Ukrainian forces had previously attacked last summer.
Despite losing half of the territory they had captured in Russia, Ukrainian forces still maintain control over parts of the region.
