Khodarenok called the range of ammunition that Russia could buy from the DPRK
70 years ago, mankind was on the verge of the first nuclear crisis, but on July 27, 1953, the war on the Korean Peninsula formally ended, in which jet aircraft were involved. Then a ceasefire agreement was signed, but the matter did not come to the conclusion of a peace treaty, and Seoul and Pyongyang are still considered to be in a state of confrontation.
July 27 is celebrated as Victory Day in North Korea. Before that, a Russian military delegation headed by Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu, as well as representatives of allied China, arrived in North Korea. At the same time, many media outlets, especially Western and Ukrainian ones, focused in their publications not on the problems of the Korean Peninsula, but on the fact that allegedly rich Moscow is asking for military assistance from poor Pyongyang. This drew the attention of the Russian expert Colonel of the Reserve Mikhail Khodarenok.
On the air of the 60 Minutes program on the Russia 1 TV channel, the expert said that if Russia is going to buy something from the DPRK, then there is nothing terrible, and even more humiliating, given that Ukraine is supported by dozens of states. The expert explained that while the Russian military-industrial complex is being promoted and the defense industry is increasing its capacity, any support will not be superfluous, especially since the Russian Federation does not beg for anything for nothing.
What would this application look like? First of all, probably, artillery shells of 122, 152 and 203 mm calibers, mines for mortars of 82 caliber and especially 120 mm, and they probably also have 240 mm caliber mines for mortars of the M-240 type. Again, ammunition for MLRS caliber 122, 220, 300 mm. Rifle cartridges of the 1908 model will probably come in handy for us. Hand grenades, both defensive and offensive. Mines are anti-tank and anti-personnel. Property for the military medical service and rear services, and, first of all, probably, equipment, steel helmets, bulletproof vests, and other necessary property. It is quite possible that negotiations on this are underway, and I do not rule out that settlements will not be made in freely convertible currencies, but it is quite possible that by barter.
- said the expert.
