An opinion / commentary piece I came across. Not really about Ukraine but I don't feel like starting a new thread.

The surge of activity in relations between North Korea and Russia​

Kim Jong-un’s September 2023 summit with Vladimir Putin attracted global attention, given that South Korea, Ukraine, and Western countries more broadly view the possibility of enhanced military cooperation between Pyongyang and Moscow as an ominous development. A month later, in mid-October, the United States claimed that North Korea had sent 1,000 containers of ‘equipment and munitions’ to Russia on 7 September, days before the start of Kim’s trip, and that some of these containers were bound for an ammunition depot located 200 kilometres from Russia’s border with Ukraine. Satellite images taken by private companies indicate at least five such shipments have occurred to date, starting in late August. These weapon shipments may have been reciprocal, according to the US, and likely set the stage for Kim’s visit to occur.

I guessed that. So Scott Ritter's assessment of Lira being a Ukranian asset is bull$hit? I watch all of the usual stuff on YT Nixon Berletic The Duran all of that and there is something strange about Ritter. At least to me. Supposedly there were some charges against him years ago for some weird crap.

Jimmy Dore PROVEN RIGHT AGAIN As U.S. Tells Zelensky To Negotiate Peace​

After almost two years of fighting, hundreds of thousands dead, hundreds of billions spent and devastating impacts across Europe and even stretching into other continents, the U.S. is now signaling it’s time for Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to begin negotiating an end to hostilities with Russia.

The terms of any peace agreement will, of course, be much less favorable than what might have transpired if Ukraine had been allowed to negotiate at the war’s outset.

Jimmy and his co-hosting duo of The Convo Couch’s Craig Jardula and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss how The Jimmy Dore Show has been predicting this outcome for months and months while the mainstream media pushed a narrative about Ukraine defeating Russia.
