@Q&A with a Pentagon Press Secretary General Pat Ryder and Janne Pak at the Pentagon Press Briefing on November 26, 2024.

While North Korea is known to be supporting Russia with short-range ballistic missiles, it has been reported that it is expanding a key military factory that manufactures missiles in Hamheung, South Hamgyong Province.

북한이 러시아에 단거리 탄도미사일을 지원하는 것으로 알려진 가운데 함경남도 함흥에 미사일을 제작하는 핵심 군수공장을 확장하고 있다고 알려졌다.

North Korea is also sending North Korean military personnel to a drone manufacturing factory in Russia and is manufacturing and supplying suicide drones to Russia.

북한은 또한 러시아에 있는 드론 제작공장에 북한군 인력을 보내고 있고 자폭드론을 만들어 러시아에 제공하고 있다.

North Korea and Russia have signed a military cooperation treaty, and weapons and technical support are beginning in earnest.

북한과 러시아가 군사협력조약에 서로 싸인을 끝냈고 본격적으로 무기와 기술지원등이 시작되고 있다.

In order to win the war in Ukraine, Russia wanted to send North Korean troops, and North Korea has ambitions to obtain advanced nuclear missile technology and economy from Russia.

우크라이나 전쟁에 승리하기 위해 러시아는 북한군 파병을 원했고 북한은 러시아로부터 핵 미사일에 대한 고급기술과 경제를 얻을 야망을 갖고 있다.

While Russia is strengthening military cooperation with North Korea, it is issuing a harsh warning, saying, 'South Korea is helping Ukraine.' The Russian Kremlin warned, “South Korea is being used by the United States and the West, and Korea will be targeted as an accomplice of the West, which will lead to very bad consequences.”

러시아는 북한과의 군사협력을 하면서 한국이 우크라이나를 돕고 있는데 대해 살벌한 경고를 하고 있다. 러시아 크렘린궁은 “한국이 미국과 서방에 이용당하고 있다며, 한국이 서방의 공범자로 표적이 될 것이며 이는 매우 나쁜 결과를 초래할 것이다.”고 경고했다.

At the Pentagon briefing today (16th), Spokesperson General Ryder responded to my question by saying, “North Korea provided approximately 100 short-range ballistic missiles to Russia. And Russia is expanding its ballistic missile manufacturing plant in North Korea." To my question, “What are the concerns about North Korea and Russia providing weapons and technical support in earnest?”

오늘(16일) 펜타곤 브리핑에서 대변인 라이더 장군은 “북한이 약 100기의 단거리 탄도미사일을 러시아에 제공했으며. 그리고 러시아는 북한에 탄도미사일 제조공장을 확장하고 있다. 북한과 러시아가 무기와 기술지원을 본격적으로 제공하고 있는데 대한 우려가 무엇이냐.”는 나의 질문에,

“Of course, we are concerned about the developing relationship between North Korea and Russia, as evidenced by the fact that they have deployed more than 12,000 troops to Russia in support of the invasion of Ukraine,” he said. “And so, it's something that we're going to continue to take seriously, keep an eye on and work closely with our regional partners to address those threats."

그는 “물론 우리는 북한과 러시아가 우크라이나 침공을 지원하기 위해 12,000명이 넘는 군대를 러시아에 배치했다는 사실에서 알 수 있듯이 관계 발전에 대해 우려하고 있다.”면서 “따라서 우리는 이러한 위협을 해결하기 위해 계속해서 심각하게 받아들이고, 주시하고, 지역 파트너와 긴밀히 협력할 것이다.”고 말했다.

General Ryder also responded to a question about “The Russian Kremlin is warning South Korea that the war in Ukraine will be prolonged,” he said, "I think Russia obviously invaded Ukraine. It's a little bit of gaslighting there." "They could end this war today by withdrawing their troops from Ukrainian territory and restoring peace and stability to the region.

라이더 장군은 또한 “러시아 크렘린궁이 한국에 대한 경고를 하면서 우크라이나 전이 길어질 것이다.”고 말한데 대한 질문에는, 나는 러시아가 분명히 우크라이나를 침공했다고 생각한다.”거기에는 약간의 가스 라이팅이 있다.”고 말하면서 그들(러시아)은 오늘 우크라이나 영토에서 군대를 철수하고 지역의 평화와 안정을 회복함으로써 이 전쟁을 끝낼 수 있다.”고 말했다.

QUESTION:(Janne Pak): Thank you, general. I have a couple of questions about the Russia, Ukraine and North Korea. According to the Ukraine defense intelligence, North Korea has provided Russia with a KN23, KN24 and about 100 short-range ballistic missiles. And Russia is expanding its ballistic missile manufacturing plant in North Korea. North Korea and Russia are providing full scale weapons and technical support. What are your concerns about it?

우크라이나 국방정보국에 따르면 북한은 러시아에 KN23, KN24와 약 100기의 단거리 탄도미사일을 제공했다. 그리고 러시아는 북한에 탄도미사일 제조공장을 확장하고 있다. 북한과 러시아는 무기와 기술지원을 본격적으로 제공하고 있다. 그것에 대해 귀하는 어떤 우려를 하고 있습니까?

A:(MAJ. GEN. RYDER): Well, Janne, I mean, we've talked about this in the past. We're, of course, concerned about the developing relationship between North Korea and Russia as evidenced by the fact that they've deployed, you know, upwards of 12,000 troops into Russia to support their invasion of Ukraine. And so, it's something that we're going to continue to take seriously, keep an eye on and work closely with our regional partners to — to address those threats.

Janne, 내 말은, 우리는 과거에 이것에 대해 이야기한 적이 있습니다. 물론 우리는 북한과 러시아가 우크라이나 침공을 지원하기 위해 12,000명이 넘는 군대를 러시아에 배치했다는 사실에서 알 수 있듯이 관계 발전에 대해 우려하고 있습니다. 따라서 우리는 이러한 위협을 해결하기 위해 계속해서 심각하게 받아들이고, 주시하고, 지역 파트너와 긴밀히 협력할 것입니다.

QUESTION:(Janne Pak): Russian Kremlin warned that South Korea is being used by the United States and the West. And that South Korea will be targeted as an accomplice with the West, which will lead to very bad results. It also said that if South Korea provide additional weapons to Ukraine, the war will be prolonged. How do you assess this?

러시아 크렘린궁은 한국이 미국과 서방에 이용당하고 있으며 한국이 서방의 공범자로 표적이 될 것이며 이는 매우 나쁜 결과를 초래할 것이라고 경고했다. 또 한국이 우크라이나에 추가 무기를 제공하면 전쟁이 장기화될 것이라고 말했다. 이것을 어떻게 평가하시나요?

A:(MAJ. GEN. RYDER): I think Russia obviously invaded Ukraine. It's a little bit of gaslighting there. They could end this war today by withdrawing their troops from Ukrainian territory and restoring peace and stability to the region.

나는 러시아가 분명히 우크라이나를 침공했다고 생각합니다. 거기에는 약간의 가스 라이팅이 있습니다. 그들은 오늘 우크라이나 영토에서 군대를 철수하고 지역의 평화와 안정을 회복함으로써 이 전쟁을 끝낼 수 있습니다.(끝)

It is fortunate that President Yoon Suk-yeol's martial law declaration was lifted without any armed conflict. Due to the opposition party's legislative monopoly, Korea had no choice but to impose martial law due to the loss of national security and state function. In fact, the leader of South Korea's opposition party is breaking the law and avoiding trial despite committing numerous crimes, and is being investigated for...

As the war between Russia and Ukraine reaches its peak, Russia is making its last efforts by including North Korean troops to be sent into the war. 러시아와 우크라이나 전쟁이 최고조를 달리면서 러시아는 전쟁에 투입시킬 북한군까지 포함시켜 마지막 발악을 하고 있다.
