(11-18-2024)   by: Janne Pak(White House & State Department & Pentagon & Congress Correspondent) "It Seems very difficult to believe that North Korean soldiers could die in battle with Ukrainian troops without receiving anything in return." @Q&A with a State Department Spokesperson Matthew Miller and Janne Pak at the State Department Press Briefing on November 18, 2024.

N.Korean-Russian forces begin battle at Kursk_ North Korean military basic infantry operations and communication training
(11-12-2024)   by: Janne Pak(White House & State Department & Pentagon & Congress Correspondent) @Q&A with a State Department Principal Deputy Spokesperson Vedant Patel and Janne Pak at the State Department Press Briefing on November 12, 2024. Russian President Putin signed the “North Korea-Russia Mutual Military Treaty,” which was ratified by the Russian Parliament on the 9th, and North Korea’s Kim Jong-un subsequently announced that by signing this treaty on the 11th, military support between North Korea and Russia was effectively justified. It can be seen that the hasty dispatch of North Korean troops was also aimed at asserting legitimacy. 푸틴 러시아 대통령은 9일 러시아 의회에서 비준된 “북러 상호군사조약”에 서명을 했고 이어서 북한 김정은은 11일 이 조약에 서명함으로서 북러간의 군사지원은 사실상 정당화시켰음을 공개했다. 북한군 파병을 서둘러 시행한 것도 정당성을 주장하기 위한것임을 알 수 있다. The U.S. State Department responded to Putin's rationalization of sending North Korean troops by signing the ratification of the 'military treaty' signed between Russia and North Korea, saying, "We denounce Russia's decision to supply soldiers to North Korea to continue its brutal war against Ukraine." “We are very concerned about this,” “We can confirm that more than 10,000 North Korean troops have been dispatched to eastern Russia,...

Trump elected as the 47th President of the United States,_"How does he prepare for his second term in office?
(11-8-2024) [Editor's Commentary] by: Janne Pak(White House & State Department & Pentagon & Congress Correspondent) @U.S. President-elect Trump giving a speech accepting his election as the 47th President of the United States. @President-elect Trump and Donald Trump Jr. stand on the podium to deliver a speech accepting the election of the 47th President of the United States. Former U.S. President Trump succeeded in coming back to power. On the 5th, he overwhelmingly defeated Democratic presidential candidate Harris in the U.S. presidential election and was virtually elected as the 47th U.S. president. 트럼프 전 대통령이 다시 재집권에 성공했다. 지난 5일 미국 대통령선거에서 헤리스 민주당 대통령후보를 압도적으로 이기면서 사실상 47대 미 대통령으로 당선됐다. Until the election began on the 5th, all media outlets said that Trump and Harris were closely contested and that whoever won would win by a narrow margin. However, as the vote counting began, Trump's votes were ahead in each state, breaking expectations. The predictions of major media outlets were wrong. 5일 선거가 시작되기 전까지는 모든 언론들이 트럼프와 헤리스는 박빙이라면서 누가 이겨도 근소한 차이로 이길 것 이라고 평가했다. 하지만 개표가 시작되면서 각주에서 트럼프의 표가 앞서면서 예상을 깨고 있었다. 주요 언론들의 예측은 빗나갔다. Should we say that President-elect Trump is the...

The Pentagon said Ukraine would be a legitimate target for North Korean troops in the event of a preemptive strike.
(11-7-2024)   by: Janne Pak(White House & State Department & Pentagon & Congress Correspondent) @Q&A with a Pentagon Deputy Press Secretary Sabrina Singh and Janne Pak at the Pentagon Press Briefing on November 7, 2024. The Pentagon announced today (7th), “We estimate that there are about 10,000 to 11,000 North Korean soldiers in Kursk.” 펜타곤은 오늘(7일) “쿠르스크 내에 북한군이 10,000명에서 11,000명 정도 있는 것으로 추정하고 있다.“고 밝혔다. Regarding the reason why the numbers of North Korean troops dispatched to South Korea, the United States, and Ukraine are different, he said, “Information is not always black and white,” and “we are doing our best to distill it.” 한,미 그리고 우크라이나의 북한군파병 숫자가 다른 이유에 대해서는, “정보가 항상 흑백인 것은 아니다.”며 “우리는 그것을 증류하기 위해 최선을 다하고 있다.”고 밝혔다. At the Pentagon briefing today (7th), Pentagon Deputy Press Secretary Sabrina Singh responded to my question, "Does the United States agree with Ukrainian President Zelensky's recent announcement that they will launch a preemptive strike on North Korean military camps?" “That means Ukraine is operating inside Kursk,” she said. “They are holding the front lines, but we fully expect North Korean soldiers to be able to join the fight, and if so, they would be...

We urge opposition to Russian officials' reckless remarks regarding the use of nuclear weapons against the United States.
(11-7-2024)   by: Janne Pak(White House & State Department & Pentagon & Congress Correspondent) @Q&A with a State Department Spokesperson Matthew Miller and Janne Pak at the State Department Press Briefing on November 7, 2024 Russia and North Korea are taking actions that go too far. Russia recently conducted new strategic nuclear exercises, and North Korea's Kim Jong-un announced that preparations were completed at the Punggye-ri nuclear facility. 러시아와 북한이 도를 넘는 행동에 나서고 있다. 러시아는 최근 새로운 전략 핵훈련을 실시했으며, 북한 김정은은 풍계리 핵시설에서 준비가 완료됐다고 공개했다. Nuclear cooperation between North Korea and Russia will pose a tremendous threat to the Korean Peninsula and the international community. In particular, it is noteworthy that Russian President Putin is warning the United States that nuclear use is possible. 북한과 러시아의 핵 협력은 한반도와 국제사회에 엄청난 위협을 주게될 것이다. 특히 푸틴 러시아 대통령이 미국을 향해 핵사용도 가능하다고 경고하고 있어 주목된다. Putin is threatening to use nuclear weapons if Russia is decisive in the Ukraine war. Kim Jong-un is also threatening the Korean Peninsula with nuclear weapons, so nuclear cooperation between Russia and North Korea is at a more dangerous level than ever. 푸틴은 우크라이나 전쟁에서 러시아가 결정적일 때 핵사용도 불사하겠다고 어름장을 놓고 있다....
