Ukraine Urges North Korean Troops to Surrender with Psychological Tactics
Originally Published 1 year ago — by Business Insider
Ukraine is actively trying to persuade North Korean soldiers, who have been sent to support Russia in its war against Ukraine, to surrender. Through the 'I Want to Live' project, Ukraine is distributing leaflets and videos encouraging these troops to desert, offering them humane treatment and a chance for a new life. The initiative highlights the poor living conditions in North Korea and suggests that surrendering could be an escape from the regime. Despite Russia's financial incentives for North Korean soldiers, there are doubts about whether the soldiers receive any of the promised payments.
