That cannot be allowed. NATO should reply that if a single NK soldier steps foot on the frontline in Ukraine, it will respond in kind with Western troops, unlimited weapons, and no more restrictions.

I think this could potentially be a bigger deal than the idle nuclear threats that Putin rattles off every other day.

Edit: It will also be interesting to see hoe South Korea responds to this. No way they do nothing, right?

They have said they will supply Ukraine directly

SK has already stated in no uncertain terms that they will send support to Ukraine if NK troops show up there.

Russia and N.K. are evil savages. The West is evil, selfish, weak and care about nothing but money. in other words decadent. And they're (we) cowards. The only one's with balls are the Baltics and Poland.

The world and the nations are a lot more complicated than that. I get the desire to be so reductionist, but the West is a complex mix of countries with a lot of competing agendas who have committed to coming to the aid and defense of their partner nations. None of them can make decisions in a vacuum, and as much as they've mostly supported Ukraine, you have to remember that support is not unlimited or reckless.

I don't think cowardice is an accurate description. They're part of a coalition and while you might perceive selfishness, I perceive that they're wanting to preserve their partnership. The actions we take as a nation affect other member nations, so our actions with Ukraine need to be measured carefully.

This is a bit far for me. Definitely take the gloves off of Ukraine regarding where they can strike with US/NATO-provided weapons. But, NATO ground troops??

Asking this question not to provoke, but to better understand where you are coming from in your post: if you had a son/daughter/grandchild who would be one of those infantry mobilized to go fight on the front lines in Ukraine, would you still hold the same opinion?
