Last week French diplomats made a bold-step by calling in North Koreas UNESCO delegate to their office in Paris. The meeting focused on NKs recent choice to send its military personnel to help Russian operations
The ministry spokesman Christophe Lemoine pointed out that France and its allies are set to respond: “our reaction will be strong and well-planned with our partners.“ The warning comes as part of wider international push-back against military cooperation between Moscow and Pyongyang
The French-Korean diplomatic setup is quite unique — theres no direct embassy links between countries but NK keeps its general-delegate (who got UNESCO credentials) right in Paris. This setup made it possible for French officials to deliver their message straight to Pyongyangs representative‚ making clear that supporting Russias actions wont go un-noticed
