On the 5th (local time), President Zelensky said in a video address that "Ukrainian forces have engaged in their first battle with North Korean troops deployed to the Russian military."
President Zelensky said, "The first battle with North Korean soldiers has opened a new page in global instability," and added, "We must prepare not just for words, but for concrete actions to support our defense."
"I thank our supporters around the world for their support in this matter," he said. "Together with the world, we must do everything we can to thwart Russia's attempts to expand the war."
"We must work to ensure that the efforts of (Russian President Vladimir) Putin's regime fail, and that Putin and everyone in North Korea are defeated," he added.
President Zelensky's remarks on this day were made in response to the fact that the claims made by the head of the Sub-Center for Intelligence Response (CDC) under the National Security and Defense Committee of Ukraine were confirmed as fact.
However, the Ukrainian government explained that it was a "small-scale exchange of fire, not a full-scale war."
