In the White House, they do not reject the purchase of Russian weapons in the DPRK, but the final agreement is not yet

The planned purchase of Russia indicates that its defense-industrial complex suffers greatly, and Vladimir Putin in despair, says the representative of the State Department Vedant Pavel. Russia wants to buy millions of missile and artillery shells in North Korea for war in Ukraine. However, there are no signs that the agreement was concluded, and weapons reached the battlefield. This was stated by the White House representative John Kirby, ABC News reports.

"We feel that it can be literally about millions of shells, missiles and artillery shells from North Korea. He (Putin - Ed. ) Bought drones in Iran. He is now going to buy artillery shells in North Korea," Kirby said. At the same time, the deputy official representative of the US State Department Vedant Pavel believes that the planned purchase of Russia indicates that its defense-industrial complex is suffering a lot, and Vladimir Putin in despair.

"It is an indicator of how much his defense-industrial complex suffers from this war, and the degree of despair in which he appeals for help to countries such as Iran and North Korea," the politician said. Bloomberg notes that the purchase of weapons in North Korea violates the UN embargo on its supply. In particular, Russia voted for this decision.

The director of the Center for Global Policy of the Institute of Peace Hanphen in South Korea Van Dream Thek stressed that it is unclear whether Pyongyang could put so much ammunition to Moscow fairly quickly. However, the request of the Russian Federation can make the UN sanctions regime in respect of North Korea. We will remind, on September 5, NYT reported that Russia is buying millions of shells and rockets from the northern missile.
