🇰🇵 North Korea has earned up to $14 billion from Russia’s war against Ukraine
According to South Korean analysts, arms shipments, missiles, and the deployment of North Korean troops have brought the Kim Jong Un regime a sum comparable to nearly a full year of the country’s GDP.
Pyongyang could have received between $7 billion and $13.8 billion just for supplying rocket artillery systems and around 250 KN-23 missiles.
Russia has also paid more than $600 million for the participation of North Korean soldiers, according to researchers.
Currently, about 10,000 North Korean special forces troops are fighting on the front lines, along with roughly the same number of engineers and drone operators.
