The conflict between Ukraine and Russia continues. Meanwhile, the White House has made a big claim. The White House says that North Korea has delivered more than 1,000 containers of military equipment and war materials to Russia. Recently, North Korean dictator President Kim Jong Un visited Russia. It is likely that the plan would have been discussed between the two countries during this period.
Containers sent to Russia from Nazin port
White House National Security Council spokesman John Kirby said the US believes Kim Jong Un is seeking Russian weapons technologies in exchange for weapons to boost North Korea's nuclear program. The White House said that on September 7, containers filled with war material and weapons were loaded onto a ship at North Korea's Najin port, which arrived at Russia's Dune port on October 1. The Russian flag was flying on the ships. After this, the help of train was taken to transport the containers to south-western Russia. America has also released its photo.
America had made allegations
Earlier, America had alleged that North Korea is providing ammunition, artillery and rockets to its ally Russia. American officials had informed that Putin and Kim Jong are soon going to meet in the eastern Russian city of Vladivostok on an arms deal. North Korea is also curious about this deal. This is the reason why North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un, who usually does not go out of the country, went on a tour of Russia.
America had warned
US State Department spokesman Matthew Miller said at the time that the warning was issued in response to questions about the meeting in Russia between Russian President Vladimir Putin and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un. He had said that we have already taken several actions to ban entities that broker arms sales between North Korea and Russia. If necessary, we will not hesitate to take additional action. He said it was troubling that Russia and North Korea were discussing expanding cooperation, which could violate UN Security Council resolutions.
