Doesn’t Russia have a nearly unlimited pool of rural conscripts and prisoners?

This is to get North Korean battle experience before any fighting between south korea or helping to assist china with Taiwan.
They had no experience since the Korean war. This will give them training even though most will be dead better be the officer be like Russian higher ups just sitting in the back.
This also offers them training on newer equipment since most their gear is back from the 60s to 70s.
As a side note i bet there is train from Russia for more gas and food for this arrangement.
Never know if what north Korea is sending as soldiers can be their own prisoner as well.
Current in Russia it is voluntary prisoner service with hopes of being set free. North Korea is forcing whomever to go.

I thought that the involvement of NK soldiers would be more about strengthening military cooperation between RU and NK. I also get that he wants to avoid mobilization, as that will hurt popular opionion about the war, but is “severe manpower shortages” really an accurate description?

The longer this goes on, the greater the risk of multiple outside countries getting directly involved. Ukraine should have been given everything it needed 18 months ago and thousands of men would still be alive and able to fight.

NATO, South Korea, West and it’s allies, 16th year in a row:
“It’s bad, but they have NUKES! So we CANNOT to do nothing except de-escalation!
Only when after decades of our inaction, getting used to impunity, much bigger number of totalitarian countries with nukes than it was in 1991 year, will begin WW3, WE WILL REACT! We promise!
But now we need a little more profits and political ratings…”

Hope that some of the NK soldiers use that opportunity to run away from NK.

Sorry, Article 4 does not make sense! Russia is already at war so why drag DRNK into the war be an agreement that is bullshit which will cost DRNK lives!

How many armies is Ukraine fighting now?
So, what’s the excuse as to why they’re exempt from the [“no foreign troops” rule](https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/russia-warns-enormous-danger-if-nato-sends-troops-ukraine-2024-05-08/)?
Or have they gone right past that and settled on the Cuphead oops flower?
