North Korea has been sending arms to Russia for months. Now they are sending troops. Some sources say as many as 10K.

This ain't a good sign
I bet they are hoping that Russia will actually feed them, NK isn't big on food.
Agree, not sure what to make of this, because Putin has made his position clear on a major escalation if any European nation puts boots on the ground in Ukraine. Several Western European nations have said they may do just that. Either way, most certainly will lead to a major escalation we in the USA do not need to get involved in.
Vote Trump. He ends wars instead of starting them.
NK sends troops every chance they get
Its more money to little fat boy to spend and I will guess the soldiers at least get to eat and have better conditions than in NK
JMHO a lot of Democrats envy ,Kim's iron fist control of the people
Yep, saw this coming, see previous post.
and they are welcomed into the USA by Joe Biden.
Not a good time to have a so called leader with dementia. Biden was a milk toast on his best day.
It will be like when the Italians were fighting along side the Germans during WW2 in North Africa. They weren’t very good fighters, but they were able to fire a rifle.
If the Russians are suppling their equipment and training them, more than likely they are not regular North Korean army. More than likely they are from work camps or prisons.
Imagine they are happy to be serving in Russia compared to what they previously had.
Going back in history, the British conscripted Hessian (Germanic) soldiers to fight against us during the American Revolutionary War.
The Hessians weren't conscripts, they were full on mercenaries. My guess is that @waltermoe is correct and the Norks in Russia are from Nork labor camps. What better way to get rid of excess population that you can't feed?
I wonder if the smart play would be if Ukraine took the NK in as "guest fighters" and if they lived they'll be Ukrainians? On the local rag it stated 3K NK soldiers. Taking in 3K ain't nothing not like 3 million that are here this year.
I would doubt that, Joe.
Lil' Kim is getting paid for supplying them and the Russians will not doubt use them as cannon fodder or human mine clearing. They will be sent to their deaths so that Russians will live.

Could we hire some of 'um to fight our really necessary wars and save our kids' arms, legs, and lives?
slinger - Why? We're pretty much pulled out, right? Trump will get the rest home and he'll tell them to handle their own business. This term will be the "re-building term" for the military. Fire the woke, boot out the mamby pambies (R. E. Ermey) train the new recruits to become robotic joystick jockeys so they'll no longer be the boots on the ground. Being that they can't recruit enough so work with less.
But hire the "NK" as guest workers to round up the illegals here. Hide your pets, though. I don't think they got the no dog eating policies of 2027.
Time to lob a nuke Kim's way. Biden is weak so they poke the bear.
