Regarding this issue, on the same day, October 25, the North Korean Foreign Ministry announced that it would not confirm press reports about the country deploying troops to support Russia's conflict in Ukraine, after Pyongyang's representative at the United Nations rejected these accusations.
In a statement carried by the Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) , Vice Foreign Minister Kim Jong Gyu stressed that if Pyongyang takes such steps, it will be in line with international norms, despite others' attempts to portray the move as illegal.
The statement came after Russian President Vladimir Putin refused to deny the information, which came from the governments of Ukraine, South Korea, the United States and other countries.
