There are concerns about the tensions between North and South Korea due to North Korea’s involvement in the war in Ukraine. The cooperation has raised fears for South Korea that North Korea could receive nuclear technology from Russia in return. In response, South Korea has pledged to respond to North Korea’s involvement, including by potentially supplying weapons to Kyiv, marking a major foreign policy shift. So far, South Korea’s involvement in the war has been confined to humanitarian aid and helping backfill weapons by supplying arms to NATO members.
