Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has condemned what he says is a lack of response from Western allies after Russia deployed North Korean troops to fight in the ongoing war in Ukraine.

In a Nov. 1 statement published on his official website, Zelenskyy said the first thousands of North Korean soldiers have already been transferred to Russian camps not far from Ukraine’s border. Their deployment means Ukrainians will eventually be “forced to defend themselves against them,” he said.
