According to a report in the New York Times (NYT) on the 22nd (local time), Russia has launched North Korean-made missiles toward Ukraine three times since the end of last year.
It is understood that it was fired. Since the Russia-North Korea summit was held in September last year, missiles provided by North Korea have begun to be deployed in earnest to Ukraine.
According to NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organization) officials, North Korea has so far provided less than 50 missiles to Russia, but the number is expected to increase in the future. Seki
Officials are concerned that ``Russia's use of these missiles could overwhelm Ukraine's air defense network provided by Western countries.''
The NYT said, ``NATO and the US believed that ``Ukraine's air defense network would be able to survive the winter'' prior to the introduction of North Korean missiles.
I expected that. However, if North Korea provides missiles and the US aid to Ukraine is delayed, such calculations (forecasts) will likely come to an end."
