Scrolling down this email, the claim of North Koreans actively fighting for Russia in the thousands is deconstructed.

Junior Sergeant Andrey Grigoryev defeated a Ukrainian soldier in a brutal knife fight last autumn Russian President Vladimir Putin has awarded Junior Sergeant Andrey Grigoryev a Gold Star medal after he prevailed in a hand-to-hand fight with a Ukrainian serviceman,
the video of which went viral on ...

The above featured Andrey Grigoryev is an ethnic Yakut citizen of the multiethnic Russian Federation, which includes over 100,000 ethnic Koreans. For that matter, the Kiev regime has such examples as
Vitalli Kim.
Had the Kiev regime combatant defeated Grigoryev, Western mass media would've featured this story, with a quite likely note that Grigoryev was North Korean. In point of fact, pro-Kiev regime propaganda claims that North Koreans are given fake identities as
one of the non-ethnic Russian far eastern citizens of the Russian Federation.
Over the decades, it hasn't been so uncommon for Southeast Asian looking actors playing roles different from their actual ethnic origin. For that matter, Italians have played Jews and vice versa. Also recalling the Rocky 4 and Creed 2 appearances of Scandinavians
Brigitte Nielson and Dolph Lundgren as Russians.
Concerning North Koreans fighting for Russia, there's a
-
BBC segment with a sarcastic quote (buried at
the end) from a Kiev regime combatant ridiculing the claim of North Koreans in Kursk
-
absurd claims that the faces of North Koreans get burned (like something out of a low grade Hollywood movie) in order to not reveal their identity
- reports of North Koreans
being withdrawn after incurring heavy casualties.
The last matter is quite convenient to explain why proof of North Koreans actively fighting in the thousands for Russia can't be further substantiated as if it ever was.
Bottom line, it’s irrational from a military standpoint to use North Koreans in the NATO
proxy war for active combat, given the language barrier with Russian forces and Russia having enough nationals of their own to willingly serve. It wouldn’t surprise if there’re some North Korean military personnel in Russia getting educated. It’s possible
they might've some observers at the front lines.
