Internationalization of the Russia–Ukraine War: North Korean Soldiers on the Battlefield?

While the prospect of North Korean soldiers arriving at the front lines is alarming, there are already many foreign mercenaries fighting on the Russian side in Ukraine. Moscow has trained mercenaries near Aleppo, with at least 100 Syrians believed to have joined the Russian army.

6 October, a Day of Remembrance and a Day of Mourning

‘Among the executed were counts and commoners, descendants of Croatian and Serbian border guard families, imperial Germans, and native Armenians. Some were connected to the Hungarian cause by family ties, others by their unit or simply by their wealth and social status.

Is the War Closer to the End than We Think?

‘Disillusionment in the West with Ukraine’s performance and ability to win the war has been rising for over a year.
