KYIV (Reuters) - The involvement of North Korean troops in the Russian invasion of Ukraine would be a "huge" escalation risk, Ukraine's foreign minister told a joint press conference alongside his French counterpart in Kyiv on Saturday.
Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskiy accused North Korea this week of deploying officers alongside Russia and preparing to send 10,000 soldiers to help Moscow's war effort.
