In a jaw-dropping escalation, U.S. lawmakers are calling for direct military action if North Korean soldiers set foot in Ukraine. Michael Turner, head of the House Intelligence Committee, is leading the charge, urging President Biden to draw a hard line against Pyongyang’s involvement in the Russia-Ukraine war. “The entry of North Korean troops is a red line for the U.S.,” Turner declared, warning that any North Korean forces in Ukraine should face the full might of American military power.
This comes after reports confirmed that 3,000 North Korean soldiers have been deployed to Russia to aid Moscow’s struggling war efforts. South Korean intelligence and the White House have both verified the movement, with Washington making it clear: if North Korea engages in combat, they will be treated like any other enemy force.
The timing couldn’t be more critical. As the war drags on, the potential for a broader conflict looms larger than ever. North Korea’s alliance with Russia could destabilize not just Ukraine, but the entire global balance of power. With Congress openly advocating for military intervention, the Biden administration faces mounting pressure to act decisively.
The question now is whether North Korea will back down—or if the world is on the brink of a major military clash. As tensions soar, all eyes are on Biden to see if he’ll enforce the red line Congress is drawing in the sand.
