GOP Chair: US Must Consider 'Direct Military Action' If N.Korean Troops Fight In Ukraine
Perhaps as expected, some hawks in Washington are reacting loudly and angrily to continuing reports which say North Korean troops are in Russia preparing for greater involvement in Ukraine. South Korean intelligence and the Zelensky government say that some are already in the fight, invading Ukrainian soil.
Republican Representative Mike Turner of Ohio, the chair of the House Intelligence Committee, has already taken warnings against Pyongyang to the next level. He has urged the United States to consider "direct military action" if it's confirmed that North Korean troops are sent to fight in Ukraine.
"If North Korean troops were to invade Ukraine’s sovereign territory, the United States needs to seriously consider taking direct military action against the North Korean troops," Rep. Turner wrote on X.
If someone were to invade a NATO country then all of NATO would be eligible to respond.
What if Russia has similar agreements? So if someone invades Russia the countries who are part of that agreement can help? Yes?
So far, it looks like North Korea will be in Kursk which is Russia but has been invaded by Ukraine.
