High-Level Session of Disarmament Conference Held at UN Geneva
"North Korea Sends Troops to Russia and Supplies Missiles"

South Korea, the United States, and Japan criticized North Korea's military provocations and called for complete denuclearization at the United Nations (UN) Disarmament Conference.

Representatives from South Korea, the US, and Japan jointly stated at the high-level session of the Disarmament Conference held at the UN Geneva Office on the 26th local time, "North Korea continues to develop its illegal nuclear and ballistic missile capabilities and is expanding activities that threaten regional stability and peace."

The three countries pointed out, "North Korea's reckless provocations, including the intercontinental ballistic missile launch in October last year and the intermediate-range hypersonic ballistic missile launch last month, violate UN Security Council resolutions," adding, "North Korea has publicly threatened the preemptive use of nuclear weapons, sent troops to Russia to fight in Ukraine, and supplied ammunition and ballistic missiles."

They also emphasized, "The international community has made it clear that North Korea cannot hold the status of a nuclear-armed state under any circumstances," and urged, "We call on North Korea to completely, verifiably, and irreversibly dismantle its WMD and ballistic missile programs and to resume denuclearization talks."
