"Signs of despair and isolation": In the UK, they responded to the DPRK's transfer of weapons

"The fact that President Putin appeals to North Korea for help is a sign of despair and isolation of Russia," the official said. The report states that Russian President Vladimir Putin is increasingly turning to the head of the Wagner PEC of the Russian businessman Yevgeny Prigogine, so that he compensates for the failures of the Armed Forces on the front.

Prigogine spends more than $ 100 million a month to finance his military operations in Ukraine, he recruits to the ranks of his grouping of Russian prisoners, who often suffer from serious illness. According to the UK Ministry of Defense, the Wagner Group has sent 50,000 mercenaries to Ukraine, including 10,000 contractors and 40 thousand, who agreed to fight prisoners of prisons.

The Wagner Group is an illegal armed milia formation that was founded in Russia by Putin's supporter billionaire Eugene Zabigin. Since 2014, the group has operated on the territory of Ukraine, and later - Syria, Africa. He is actively involved in a full -scale war against Ukraine, which began on February 24, 2022. Earlier, Focus wrote that the media found out that fighters from Wagner PEC purchased infantry missiles and ammunition from the DPRK.

Due to weapons from North Korea, Wagnerivka intends to strengthen the forces of Russian troops at the front. However, the United States believes that the number of ammunition will not change the dynamics of combat. We will also remind that Putin called the Patriot air defense systems outdated. According to the President of the aggressor country, the Russian C-300 is more efficient than Patriot. Despite the fact that Raytheon Technologies are considered to be the "gold standard" of air defense.
