Ukraine believes Russia shared jet-drone technology with North Korea, says Zelenskiy

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky stated on Sunday that he believes Russia shared jet-drone technology with its long-standing ally, North Korea. In recent weeks, Russia has intensified the use of these drones against Ukraine, which currently lacks effective countermeasures other than using combat aircraft. Earlier in the war, North Korea supplied Russia with millions of artillery shells and continues to provide ballistic missiles that Moscow uses to attack Ukrainian cities. Zelensky confirmed during a press conference: "Yes, of course," when asked if Russia shared drone technology with North Korea because Pyongyang aided them with missile supplies. South Korea and Western countries have expressed concerns over potential weapons development assistance between Moscow and Pyongyang in exchange for military support from North Korea.
