Vladimir Putin constantly talks about "red lines", but is himself their killer, the use of North Korean soldiers by Russia shows that this war affects the entire world, Chair of the European Parliament's Subcommittee on Security and Defense Marie-Agnes Strack-Zimmermann said on Saturday, October 26.

It is necessary to realize that Putin needs more soldiers, and it seems easier for him to buy soldiers in North Korea than to recruit more people in his own country, and this shows that the war is affecting the entire globe, she told a press briefing, adding that it is not just a question of Europe, it is a question of the entire free world around the globe.

The MEP emphasized that even more aid should be given to Ukraine, but there is a problem of time.

Ukraine's partners need to produce weapons for their own armies now, which requires more time, Strack-Zimmermann explained.

She also said that Russia's cooperation with North Korea, Iran and China is a real challenge for the free world.
