North Korea has condemned Ukraine's incursion into Russia, calling it an unforgivable act of terror backed by Washington and the West, according to state media reports on Sunday.
The incursion is seen by North Korea as a result of the anti-Russia confrontational policies led by the United States, which it claims are pushing global tensions to the brink of World War Three. The U.S. has reportedly supplied Ukraine with significant quantities of lethal weapons to bolster President Volodymyr Zelenskiy's forces.
In a statement, North Korea's foreign ministry condemned the attack on Russian territory by what it described as the "Zelenskiy puppet regime" backed by the U.S. and the West. Over the past year, North Korea has notably strengthened its relationship with Russia, highlighted by two summits between their leaders and a comprehensive strategic partnership pact signed in June, including a mutual defense agreement.
