The Biden-Harris administration has made the world a dangerous place. And it’s about to get much worse.
Because the Pentagon made a sobering war announcement that is putting Americans on their heels.
The Biden-Harris administration’s Pentagon has made it clear: there will be no restrictions on Ukraine’s use of American weapons if North Korean troops join Russia in the battlefield.
This firm stance from the Department of Defense raises questions about the long-term consequences of such an open-ended support strategy.
In mid-October, the Pentagon pledged another $425 million in weapons and supplies to Ukraine, including missiles and artillery, as part of an ongoing commitment to prop up Ukraine’s defenses against Russia.
Deputy Press Secretary Sabrina Singh addressed the possibility of American weapons being used against North Korean forces, if they were deployed to the front lines.
When asked if there would be any limitations under such conditions, her response was straightforward: “No.”
“If North Korea – if we see DPRK troops moving in and towards the front lines, I mean, they are co-belligerents in the war,” Singh said, making it clear that these North Korean forces would be legitimate targets.
“And so, they are fighting on these front lines and the Ukrainians are defending their sovereign territory and pushing the Russians back.”
Singh added, “That is a calculation that, you know, DPRK leadership is making to send their soldiers into combat.”
She continued by reaffirming the administration’s broad commitment:
“We’ve made a commitment to Ukraine that we’re going to continue to support them with whatever it takes.”
The Pentagon estimates around 10,000 North Korean soldiers have already entered Russia.
According to Pentagon Press Secretary Maj. Gen. Pat Ryder, many have moved closer to Ukraine’s border, with several thousand already stationed in the Kursk region.
“We remain concerned that Russia intends to use these soldiers in combat or to support combat operations against Ukrainian forces in Kursk,” Ryder stated.
This move, he noted, underscores “the dire situation that Russia finds itself in” as it now leans on foreign troops to sustain its campaign.
While the administration remains unwavering in its support for Ukraine, critics argue that Biden and Harris are pushing the U.S. into a deeper and more complex conflict, with fewer safeguards and potentially greater risks of escalation.
This absence of restraint could amplify the chances of a broader war, with American-supplied weaponry now potentially directed at not just Russian forces but also foreign soldiers fighting for Moscow.
