Two friends of Donald Trump are secretly hooking up. Although US intelligence agencies are tracking the shipments, North Korea denies reports that it is supplying Russia with weapons and ammunition for its floundering fight in Ukraine, NBC News reports.
As early as September, reports have circulated that North Korea was arming Russia with shipments of artillery shells being routed through ports in the Middle East and North Africa and then being shipped over land to Russian forces in Ukraine and southern Russia.
“We regard such moves of the U.S. as part of its hostile attempt to tarnish the image of the DPRK in the international arena by invoking the illegal ‘sanctions resolution’ of the (U.N. Security Council) against the DPRK,” an official statement read on state television said.
