Is Belarus on the list?

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said in the Verkhovna Rada on October 16 that the country is at war with three countries at once: Russia, North Korea, and Iran. However, he did not mention Belarus, which, at Lukashenka's instigation, has become the base for a large-scale offensive by Russian occupation forces on Ukraine.

“As of now, the coalition of criminals together with Putin already includes North Korea — the Kim family, which holds more than 20 million Koreans in slavery,” Zelensky noted.

He added that Ukrainian military intelligence records not only the supply of weapons from North Korea to Russia, but also the dispatch of workers who replace killed Russians and replenish the ranks of the Russian army.

In addition, Zelensky recalled the role of Iran, which supplies Russia with kamikaze drones, emphasizing its participation in the conflict.

“Everyone sees the Iranian regime's assistance to Putin in the same way as China's cooperation with Russia. Despite its statements, Beijing refrains from taking truly serious, effective steps to stop Putin, stop Russia's aggression and violation of the UN Charter,” the Ukrainian president added.
