South Korea's National Intelligence Service (NIS) informed lawmakers on Monday that two North Korean soldiers captured by Ukrainian forces while fighting alongside Russian troops in the Kursk border region have not expressed a desire to seek asylum in South Korea.

Ukraine’s president released a video of the two soldiers being interrogated, revealing they knew little about the war they were sent to fight in.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said he’s willing to hand over the soldiers to North Korea, if Kim Jong Un arranges for an exchange with Ukrainian prisoners of war in Russia.
