11 thousand mysterious Koreans: why did the Russian Federation need a reinforcement with the DPRK

One can only guess why Putin has decided to attract soldiers of the DPRK in Ukraine. Analyst Sergey Fursa takes over several possible motifs of the Kremlin dictator, each of which has its own logic as if we have an additional reason for despair and a funnel pit. But you need to look more closely at this topic - maybe then there will be no reason to sprinkle your head with ash.

If we think that the Koreans are needed to dramatically change the situation at the front, it means that the situation of Russians who recently operated a contingent of 500,000 people is very bad. And then we need to rejoice that they were urgently needed by these Koreans. If we think that the Russians are all well and this contingent is 500,000 people, then an additional 11,000 hungry Koreans, which is only 2 percent, will not affect anything at all.

But the question is why Putin is so tingled to attract Koreans that will not affect anything? The North Korean dictator has just sold these souls very expensive. If Putin's shells are purchased on a scale and it is clear why he is going on an agreement with North Korea, and this is not done for free and has political consequences in the world, then why do similar steps to attract additional 11,000 people? And this is not a fierce special forces, known all over the world.

Moreover, the Russians recently argued that they hired a monthly monthly of 30 thousand people. Why do they have a third of this that goes at a very expensive price and requires very considerable administrative efforts? They do not even speak Russian. To manage these people will be a difficult task.

So what does it tell us? Putin wanted to perform a difficult operation that should delay the psychological effect? Demonstrate a coalition? Is the myth of endless Russian resources is a myth for them, even with an expensive price, it is important to attract an additional 11,000 people? And Putin is absolutely necessary before the election in the US not to show weakness, not to let everyone see that he built the Potemkin "derevnia" of the powerful power of the Russian army, which is able to advance forever? Maybe Putin relied on Trump's victory and wants to reach at any cost before November 6 and he needs that no one sees that his economy and his army exhausted?
