In an interview with Japanese broadcaster NHK, the head of the Centre for Strategic Communications and Information Security, Ihor Solovei, described the details of the video showing North Korean soldiers wearing Russian equipment.
He said that the video was filmed by a member of the Russian military at one of the Russian Federation’s training grounds. The Centre got hold of it no later than 72 hours after it was filmed.
Solovei said the Center also obtained from the source of the video a Russian military questionnaire for North Korean troops asking for information including clothing sizes.
He said it is highly likely that when the Russians run out of their own troops, North Korean soldiers will be sent to the front lines.
Referring to North Korean soldiers who return home with combat experience, Solovei said they will probably not hesitate to implement what they have learned in their region.
He said the North Korean troops’ combat experience could have an impact on regional security in northeast Asia.
The Centre released videos showing the process of equipping North Korean soldiers at the Sergeevskoye training ground in the Russian Far East.
