Generals with the DPRK urgently left Russia: what is the reason (photo)

To spread: more than a dozen high -ranking military officers of North Korea have returned home from Russia, which suggests that Pyongyang's contribution to the Russian Federation against Ukraine may come to the background during the continuing peace talks. The North Korean commanders, including Colonel-General Kimen, Major General Sin Hym Chchol, suddenly appeared near the North Korean dictator Kim Cenn, although they were recently in Russia, Nypost reports.

Kim appreciated their achievements "in the liberation of the Kursk region. " Officially, the North Korean generals were returned from the Russian Federation to "participate in the ceremony of state awards of the DPRK". And experts, including Michael Medden, North Korea expert from the Stimson Center's analytical center, believe that the return of generals is likely to be a signal that Russia is sure that it will be able to cope on its own.

He also removes North Korea from the agenda to avoid uncomfortable questions on this topic. "The North Koreans should not be an apple of discord at the negotiating table because they operate in Russia," Medden said. North Korea transferred to Russia about 12,000 servicemen to help Moscow to return the Kursk region, where Ukraine successfully held a counter -offensive last summer.

Pyongyang mercenaries are now based exclusively in the Russian territory, which allowed the Kremlin to present the location of foreign fighters as part of the pact on the mutual defense of the two countries. Both Russia and North Korea kept silence for months about the presence of North Korean troops in Russia until this spring appeared on which Kim and his entourage honor the memory of all soldiers who died in the war in Ukraine.

During the greeting ceremony, Kim joyfully greeted the generals who returned, hugged them and praised their "victory". "We have a heroic army. Because it is created from the sons and daughters of the heroic people. Our army showed its distinguishing feature without the rest. This result has fixed its name and popularity as the strongest army in the world. Our army is doing what it should and should do it.

It is noteworthy that the report states that the DPRK soldiers will be awarded, so some of them will also leave Russia. Pyongyan also promised to send another 6,000 workers to Russia. However, it became known that workers from North Korea in Russia work in hellish conditions: almost without days off and for a penny salary, because the money is sent directly to Kim Jong. It also turned out that Kim Jong -in has equipped a secret military base with ballistic missiles just near the border with China.
