If they lose, whatever regime Russia put into office will have to pay for it.

Another reporter gets slotted. Can't say I'm surprised. Journalists aren't an elite protected class in war like aid workers as many of them seem to believe. At best they're unarmed foreign civilians who gone into a war zone instead of running away from it. I won't say the worst interpretation because it's not very nice.
The whole attitude these western journalists have had going into this has been very cavalier. Many seem to have gone into this like they did in Iraq with for selfish reasons, like career promotions and clout. It is like Iraq, except they're doing the equivalent of embedding with the Republican Guard.
It's no different to that youtuber who ended up in Kabul in the days before it fell. Somehow because they've got a sticker on their microphone that says CNN, or BBC that it makes it ok. The self serving western media will glorify them as martyrs fighting for a just cause, and the cycle will continue.
For the avoidance of doubt, I post things I think are relevant and may be of interest, I do not necessarily agree with everything in every article I post.

The Russians don't need an Armoured Brigade from North Korea, but Russia could use a lot more infantry for urban combat in Ukraine.
North Korea does have a huge infantry force, so they could easily spare a few divisions at a time. They could do with some combat experience and Russia is probably offering decent money. Alternatively, Russia might supply oil or fertiliser since they have a lot to spare now.
And it's not like the US can impose any more sanctions on North Korea.
Could you imagine 50,000 North Korean soldiers deployed in Ukraine?
Or, as opposed to the typical Russian fashion of brute-forcing through, they could land their forces to the south of Odessa and use the highway to attack from the rear, behind all the defensive-breastworks!
Also, if any objective were ripe for an airborne assault, Odessa is it! Far from the primary theaters of battle and geographically isolated, with few avenues for re-inforcement/re-supply.

It started. Well Ukrainian claims to intercept the missiles tho. If that's true means they're digging very well.
This calls for SEAD and some intensive bombing campaign to soften the landing site.

Well, I was joking about the Armored Brigade; it would take too long for that to be transported. Supposedly, NK has the largest Special Forces in the world. Maybe slip ~ten Battalions behind the Ukrainian lines along the Donbas front?
Win what ?
IMHO: This major war criminal should be in jail by now!
