It is worth mentioning that the DPRK and Russia officially signed the DPRK-Russia Treaty on Comprehensive Strategic Partnership in 2024.
The treaty stipulates that when one of the two sides is at war due to armed aggression by an individual country or multiple countries, the other side shall immediately mobilize all means at its disposal to provide military and other assistance in accordance with Article 51 of the Charter of the United Nations and the laws of North Korea and Russia.
Based on this clause, North Korean forces were strictly limited to Russia Kursk Oblast to perform tasks within the territory, to avoid direct involvement in the Ukrainian mainland operation in Donbass.
