Look at all the medals on NK military leader's chest. And I'm willing to bet most are not from combat as North Korea didn't have serious battles until some unfortunate souls "volunteered" to Ukraine.

I read somewhere that they wear their ancestors medals too.

NK military honors are the real life version of the joke scouting badges. Un makes them up as he goes along and gives them to his loyalists.

What did Putin say? "Thanks, North Korea, hey, mind if we borrow a few more thousands of your troop? My subordinates are getting more and more ambitious ideas by the day."

Their ambitions are limited to replacing daily battlefield losses at this point.

Imagine the North Korean mother: “Your son was blown to pieces by remote controlled drone he couldn’t even imagine existing a few weeks before. Putin thank your son’s life, he managed to destroy that 5000$ equipment.”

Big ol Russia needs to thank NK for their military help. Russians must be proud of their leaders.

Throwing your lot in with a brutal dictator who is on the verge of being killed by his own people after losing a war was not a good move for the Kim dynasty. Sending your troops to die against a people who weren't your enemy was also a bad move. I guess life is c**** when you're a fat b****** living life on the hog whilst your people starve eh. Putin has created a monster. That monster grew out of necessity to defend it's people against a kleptocrat tyrant. Kim Yong-Un made himself a new enemy when he sucked on Putin's teat and sent their best troops to die in Europe. He told them to eat a grenade rather than be captured. He's another shit-stain on the annals of humanity. I'd bet he's another child rapist. Probably gets his henchmen to drag 10 year old girls into his palace so he can r*** and torture them.

Why is it a big thing? Seems like normal diplomatic protocol to officially thank them. Would be more newsworthy if he didn't thank them - indicating worsened relations, but this is just 'same old same old'
