Well, howdy there internet people it's Bell again. So today we're going to talk about

Russia, Ukraine, the Korea's, and what's next. We talked recently over on the

roads not taken about the possibility of North Korea sending forces to Russia

to eventually head to Ukraine

Now Western estimates suggest North Korean troops not only have gone to Russia to train,

but that they might move toward the front any day now.

The most recent information suggests the North Korean forces will move into the Kursk region,

with some sources saying they're already there.

Estimates on numbers vary.

The U.S. says 3,000 have already been sent to Russia. South Korea

says 12,000 troops have been committed but not all have been sent yet. Ukraine

expects the number to hit 15,000 eventually.

Obviously that has triggered a lot of diplomatic tensions and maneuvering.

Security officials from the U. South Korea, and Japan have already

met. It's South Korea that has the big decisions to make. It has a long tradition of not

providing direct military assistance to countries at war.

However, it views North Korea's relationship with Russia with a great deal of apprehension.

The North Korean move will put pressure on South Korea

to make a move of its own. If it chooses to, it could simply start to commit weapon supplies to arming Ukraine.

Because of the longstanding situation on the peninsula,

South Korea has built up large supplies of weapons and

ammo that are desperately needed in Ukraine.
