Here’s hoping Ukraine is about to receive a whole lot of equipment built with South Korean parts and manufactured by South Koreans given this geopolitical move by Putler.
I’m waiting for South Korea to announce that they’re sending tons of weapon systems to Ukraine as a sign that they can shit on the north in any respect imaginable.
>[Russian Aurus cars and motorcycles imported] car body parts, sensors, programmable controllers, switches, welding equipment and other components worth almost $15.5 million imported from South Korea. Parts were also imported from China, India, Turkey, Italy and other EU countries.
Is South Korea directly sending parts, or like the Western tech flowing through the -stans? It is a problem if these parts and equipment are being used to make more vehicles/weapons for the military.
*Reuters could not determine specifically* ***which imported foreign parts ended up in the car gifted to Kim***, and the imports were not in breach of sanctions — Aurus LLC was sanctioned by the United States in February 2024.
As a sidenote, aurus was designed by Italians, engine by Porsche.

And Russian made listening tech.
It’ll be stolen using a USB cable within days.
And was full of bugs and tracking devices
