https://www.uawire.org/north-korea-to-send-engineering-troops-to-russian-controlled-donetsk This will be interesting....how long they will be "rebuilding" anything before the orcs start screaming at them and start pushing them to charge at HIMARS and ATACMS. But then again....NKs aren't Cuban,Nepalese,African mercs where the latter has contact with the outside world and NKs don't and are even more heavily brainwashed then Z-orcs and just might put up with abuse. OTOH.....if any end up as POWs.....I'll look forward to Zolkins or Apostles YT vids showcasing these NK conscripts....that'll be a sight to see!
They won't last long. Putin uses foreign volunteers as cannon fodder so they live an average of less than a day at the front. Engineering troops might last longer but one wonders about the quality of North Korean construction. I guess if it is just digging trenches and fortifications it might be useful though.
That is a good point. What better cannon fodder could Pootler ask for? As an added bonus to Little Rocket Man, there will be fewer mouths to feed (and thus more for him)
Yep....some of them are probably not far off from starvation anyway....so ship them off to Donetsk.....a certain one way ticket. Poland,Lithuania,Latvia,Estonia are now building a high clearance,heavy grade fence all along their borders with Belarus & Mafialand. This will in effect seal off Konigsberg...I suspect any moments now...tempers will be through the roof in Kremlinista, and Medvediv will be issuing numerous nuke threats....but not before sloshing down a couple of bottles of French or Italian wines.
More important for Putin will be getting slave workers to do manual labor in Russia. The reason that is important is because Russia is having massive manpower shortages. More than half a million are KIA, more WIA, two million have fled the country, all while the demographics of Russia are heavily skewed towards the elderly. Putin needs warm bodies to do less desirable jobs in mines, lumber camps, railroad maintenance, all forms of manual labor, etc... So a few million NK slaves could help economically while the NK dictator Kim gets paid in needed raw materials (food, oil, lumber, minerals, etc...).
I thought Russia had all but won the war? I thought Ukraine was out of troops 6 months ago? Yet strangely, Russia needs Mercs from the Middle East. Russia needs mercs from Africa. They need N.Korean troops. They need North Korean munitions. They need Iranian drones. They need prisoners. Oh and don’t forget not to make Russia mad or else it’ll be WWIII and all of Nato will summarily get its ass kicked. Any of you pro Russian posters care to explain how any of this is necessary from a Russia who’s killing Ukrainians at a rate of 5-1? LOL
North Korea has an army of about 1.3 million servicemen and service women and 200,000 are special forces who will face the exhausted Ukrainian forces. I wonder what the result will be?
NKs are sending 200K conscripts? Sure they are....KJ will continue providing defective artillery at 500% markups.
More dead meat. Their army has no combat experience and is not likely to be very motivated to die in Ukraine.
KJ won't be sending thousands of his best conscripts to die in some "lost cause"....considering he has 40000+ US Marines 300 yards South of his DMZ...who have the very latest hardware and can inflict a world of hurt on NK in less than 30 minutes. The Ukraine fiasco is on the other side of the world and doesn't affect Lil Rocket Man directly. He's cashing in massively on providing Botox chimp with garbage hardware left over from Korean War in the 50s.
Once upon a time not long ago (yesterday in fact) in sunny Ukraine, 3 Russian gunners loaded their tube with ammunition supplied by their esteemed comrades from North Korea.... and when the command was given..... and somewhere in that fireball are the 3 gunners.......and they didn't live happily ever after.... link to the ever after - and now a special message from BSM Williams....
Homework is a bitch, I guess. No, this isn't the "heartland of white supremacy" . . . nor is Russia a good solution if you want less white supremacy.
It wasn't a valid criticism to begin with. You didn't base your accusation on any evidence, just pure feelings, and can't address the obvious flaws in it. All you offered in the first place was "Yu huh" so no other rebuttal is required. That which is claimed without evidence can be dismissed without evidence.
Nevermind it has a Nazi problem. You have comprehension issues You're just being argumentative because of my comment on that other topic.
Russia is having a very hard time now with many of the influencial ultra-nationalists they've nurtured over the past few years (in anticipation of the narratives they'd need to control this conflict), you have the likes of Alexander Bastrykin (odious little sh|t but worth listening to as he's a Kremlin weathervane) he, for example, gave a speech at the International Youth Legal Forum in St Petes the other day - for one thing he laid into the Muslim community following the spate of Islamist terror incident lately and also about the suggestion of bringing in migrant labour to help solve the worsening labour situation. He spoke out against bringing in migrants who would be coming from Central Asia (Muslims) and basically said it was now time for the State Duma to "regulate their behavior" by the inclusion of new laws - for example the banning of the Burka and all those other clarion call, dog whistle racists laws. There is this argument in the upper levels of the Kremlin and in wider society where you have the likes of the technocrats, they saying that Russia needs to have a massive influx of (cheap migrant) labour to stem the massive drain on human resources the war has caused- in fact they are wanting to make Russia more attractive to migrants! Then there are the remnants of those Russians that believe that Russia is a law based state. Where the rule of law is still to be valued and that the Russian state is indeed secular and multi-confessional and not simply Russian Orthodox and where laws should be made that stipulate what one can or cannot wear as part of your faith.....laws stipulating the wearing of beards and fur hats to reinforce Russian Orthodoxy. Then there are the frothing right; the ultra-nationalists the likes of Bastrykin. They are saying that Russia doesn't need these people, they will simply undermine the security of Russia (which is generally code for wanting to create a constituency) the usual language being our culture is under threat our values are being flouted; effectively narrating that they are an alien people. This Eurasianist/ultra-nationalist narrative though is potentially very dangerous for Russia as you have a disproportionate number of ethnic and Muslim soldiers currently serving in Ukraine and potentially more conscripts in future. Those that are trying to push this narrative (and there are many in the media and the Kremlin and Putin's inner circle!) where they are trying to create this national identity based on an essentially Slavic / Russian Orthodox faith domination. So guess who's pushing back on this narrative....yup....Kadyrov. Although Kadyrov has this circular argument that Muslims don't commit terrorist acts and if they do they aren't terrorists...!!?? Anyway Kadyrov has spoken out against this idea of "profiling" which is central to the likes of Bastrykin. Basically there is going to be a reckoning between the factions; how are they going to deal with the wider narratives on immigration; on who serves in the military on who mans the factories and how they are to deal with the (perceived) potential internal security ramifications and indeed if they do, how are the internal security organs going to deal with it?? The FSB's various departments dealing with anti/counter terrorism are massively stressed and likely getting worse due to manpower and budget shortages as a result of the ongoing war....which if Putin has his way will only get worse as it goes on....
