“We agreed that North Korea’s dispatch of troops to Russia is a direct violation of UN Security Council resolutions and the UN Charter and is a provocation that goes beyond the Korean Peninsula and Europe to threaten global security,” Yoon Suk-yeol said.
The two leaders also agreed that they would insist on signing a new contract for the export of South Korean K2 tanks to Poland by the end of the year.
