Something very fishy is going on here and it has nothing to do with the North Korean soldier which Ukraine captured. The fact that it has been recently revealed that South Korean oil deliveries ended up in Russia is only one explanation. But I’m gonna be honest, not even that explains sufficiently the extreme lengths they are going.

have you heard of the twitter memestorm where an angry Ukrainian accidentally made SK folks aware of the Volhyn massacre? could i have triggered a domestic pressure in SK to performatively punish Ukraine?
@Tendar there may be a change in leadership in South Korea which is more pro-Russian
@Tendar i think this is just a formal step of SK, which is trying to avoid any escalation on the part of NK, which may be concerned about the fact that its citizens were transferred by Ukraine to SK. If SK was really worried about the neighbor’s reaction, it would immediately refuse any such a transfer.
Oct 8, 2026, 11:02 AM@Tendar i think you heard about a “unionist party” in SK getting parliamentary majority, which was followed by a “coup attempt” by the former president, which followed by his dismissal and arrest? That’s the other pieces of the same puzzle
@Tendar Ukraine has scored some embarrassing diplomatic own goals over the past few years, this appears to just be the next in a long line of them.
Oct 8, 2026, 12:01 PM@macattackmicmac exactly. If helping Ukraine wasn't aligned with Polish long term security, Poland would stop caring after all those weird moves and assaults at us made by Zelensky's team
@Tendar It's China. There's going to be war and South Korea is going to side with China.
