- realusername 2y agoI mean yeah, if you point Putin's visit only from a few months ago that's pretty much the definition of "dragged into the war". You should have a look at the date of your article first. That's also why North Korea bargained some goods in exchange of their support.
- mjfl 2y agoyou said > they didn't have a military alliance. Please just admit you were wrong. If you cannot do that then there is no point in responding to you.
- realusername 2y agoNo, you were wrong here, they didn't have a defense pact and got dragged into the war in exchange for goods. Maybe you can point at some pre-existing defense pact to support your claims signed before the war but I'm not aware of any existing. It's possible that I missed it though but given that Putin flew in there when the situation got worse to negotiate their war support, I doubt they had one.
