    What can “the west” really do to prevent or stop troops from NK being sent to the Ukraine front?

    Drop leaflets on them inviting them to surrender and upgrade their lives to South Korean national.

      Considering that North Korean defectors are a heavily discriminated against minority in South Korea, this is unlikely to be an attractive offer.

        Considering that North Korea is literally the worse country in the world to live it, this is super likely to be an attractive offer.

          the worse country in the world to live it

          worst* in*

          And I dunno about that. North Korea’s average soldier age isn’t forty-five.

            Nobody’s average soldier age is 45. Has nothing to do NK being rock bottom in country rankings. And the younger you are in NK, the more you are probably screwed.

                So like Poland was the worst country in Europe to live in at the start of WW2. Not because Poland was bad but because Germany and Russia were bad and would both soon be just as bad to live in as Poland.
