Explainer: De ce este Coreea de Sud atât de furioasă pe Ucraina din cauza a doi prizonieri de război nord-coreeni
A statement by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky at the UN regarding two North Korean prisoners of war has sparked a diplomatic crisis with South Korea. The two prisoners, captured while fighting for Russia, were reportedly sent to South Korea, which had previously agreed to accept them. However, South Korea expressed anger over the lack of confidentiality in the transfer, claiming it violated an agreement. This incident has strained relations between Ukraine and South Korea, with accusations of misinformation and a call for apologies. The situation is further complicated by South Korea's cautious stance towards military support for Ukraine amid its own diplomatic interests with North Korea.
