If South Korea starts supplying weapons to Ukraine, Russia will take retaliatory measures.

Axar.az reports that these words were said by Russian leader Volodymyr Putin.

"If this happens, then we will make appropriate decisions, and I do not believe that the current leadership of South Korea will like these decisions," Putin said at a press conference in Hanoi.

Putin noted that there is no reason for South Korea to worry about the Moscow-Pyongyang agreement:

"Because the signed agreement provides for assistance only in case of aggression against one of the parties to the agreement. "As far as I know, the Republic of Korea is not planning aggression against the DPRK, which means that there is no need to fear our cooperation in this field."

It should be noted that the Comprehensive Strategic Partnership Agreement was signed between Russia and North Korea. South Korea has announced that it plans to reconsider the possibility of supplying Ukraine with lethal weapons.
