In the last month or so, he said, \u201c1,000 containers of military equipment and munitions\u201d have followed this route.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe condemn the DPRK for providing Russia with this military equipment, which will be used to attack Ukrainian cities, kill Ukrainian civilians and further <a href=\"https:\/\/www.militarytimes.com\/flashpoints\/ukraine\/\" target=\"_blank\">Russia\u2019s illegitimate war<\/a>,\u201d he said Friday, using an abbreviation for North Korea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For the last year and a half, Russia\u2019s war against Ukraine has emptied the military stockpiles of both parties as well as their international supporters. The fight has largely been one of attrition, in which either side advances only after pounding the other with artillery. Such combat requires a constant supply of shells. Ukraine fires about 8,000 a day, according to an official with Ukraine\u2019s Defence Ministry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Just as the U.S. and its allies have increased production and donated stocks to Ukraine, Russia has partnered with other nations to sustain its war effort. Most notably, Moscow has received a supply of Iranian-made drones that it\u2019s used to batter Ukrainian infrastructure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Russian President Vladimir Putin and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un met in Russia for several days last month, in which the two discussed bilateral cooperation and toured factories. The meeting concerned U.S. officials, who watched the rare summit between two adversaries, drawn together amid American-led isolation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During their summit, Kim pledged support for Russia\u2019s war in Ukraine. For his part, Putin mentioned North Korea\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nknews.org\/2023\/09\/kim-jong-un-meets-vladimir-putin-at-spaceport-in-russian-far-east\/\" target=\"_blank\">\u201cgreat interest in rocket technology,\u201d<\/a> a reference to the country\u2019s fledgling space program that Russia could assist. North Korea has tried and failed twice to launch satellites this year, and the visit included a tour of Russia\u2019s far east spaceport.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During March, July, August and September, Kirby said, the U.S. and its allies have sanctioned people involved in arms negotiations and transfers between Russia and North Korea, whose nuclear program has made it a global pariah.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIn return for support, we assess that Pyongyang is seeking military assistance from Russia including fighter aircraft, surface-to-air missiles, armored vehicles, ballistic missile production equipment, or other materials and other advanced technologies,\u201d Kirby said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He added that the U.S. has already seen Russian ships make deliveries to North Korea. These, he explained, may have been the first deliveries of Russian military equipment to North Korea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Kirby used the assessment to again argue for supplemental Ukraine assistance. Earlier this year, the White House requested about $25 billion in further funding. The Senate nearly passed a bill including $6 billion, but later dropped that provision in late September as part of a deal to keep the government from shutting down..<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At a meeting in Brussels of the Ukraine Defense Contact Group, a set of countries supporting Kyiv, U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin announced $200 million more in U.S. security aid. That brings the amount of money available to send to $5.2 billion, alongside about $1.6 billion in funds to restock the U.S. military\u2019s inventory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Congress can\u2019t approve further aid unless the House has a confirmed speaker \u2014 an absence likely to continue after the previous Republican nominee, Steve Scalise of Louisiana, withdrew his name for consideration.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Russia and North Korea are building a military partnership amid heavy U.S. sanctions and support
