Doi soldați nord-coreeni capturați în Ucraina au fost transferați în Coreea de Sud
Ucraina has transferred two North Korean soldiers captured in Russia to South Korea, as announced by President Zelensky at the UN. The soldiers were taken prisoner in January 2025 and were the first North Koreans captured alive since the start of the conflict in 2024. Zelensky mentioned the difficulty of their capture, with one attempting suicide upon realization of being captured. Human rights organizations advocated for their transfer to South Korea due to potential reprisals if returned to North Korea. Reports indicate the soldiers expressed a desire to stay in South Korea. Zelensky criticized North Korea's involvement in the war, claiming they sent troops to support Russia for benefits, with estimates suggesting 14,000-15,000 North Korean soldiers have been deployed since 2024.
