"Russian Use of North Korean Missile with US and European Components in Ukraine Confirmed"

A report by Conflict Armament Research reveals that a North Korean missile fired by Russia in Ukraine contained components from US and European companies, highlighting the challenge of preventing Western technology from being used in weapons by North Korea, Iran, and Russia. The investigation found that 75% of the missile's components were from US-based companies, with an additional 16% from European companies. The Biden administration has been grappling with this issue and established a task force to address it. The report also raises concerns about North Korea's ability to produce advanced weapons despite UN sanctions, and the growing strategic partnership between North Korea and Russia, with Russia using North Korean missiles in the conflict in Ukraine.
