South Korea demands a public apology from Ukraine for disclosing information about the handover of two North Korean prisoners of war to Seoul. South Korean President Lee Jae-myung also warned that if Kyiv does not apologize, Seoul will take further measures. aktuality.sk ↗
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky disclosed the information last week during the United Nations General Assembly. South Korea claims that Ukraine thereby violated a confidentiality agreement the states had concluded regarding the transfer of prisoners from the DPRK to South Korean territory. teraz.sk ↗
According to statements from Seoul, the disclosure of sensitive data threatens trust between the two countries. Lee Jae-myung accused Ukraine of provoking tension between North and South Korea through its actions. Seoul is therefore demanding not only an apology but also respect for the agreements concerning the prisoners. seznamzpravy.cz ↗
According to Ukrainian officials, the dispute could strain relations between Kyiv and Seoul. Ukraine is also dissatisfied that South Korea is refusing to supply it with key weapons during the Russian aggression. The rift thus comes at a time when Kyiv is seeking further international support. dennikn.sk ↗
Further developments will depend on whether Ukraine apologizes for disclosing the information and how Seoul assesses its subsequent conduct.
