首尔——乌克兰总统弗拉基米尔·泽连斯基9月28日表示，目前有超过8000名朝鲜士兵驻扎在俄罗斯领土，且正准备部署另外1万名士兵。
SEOUL – Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said on Sept 28 there are more than 8,000 North Korean troops on Russian territory and preparations are underway to deploy another 10,000 troops.
泽连斯基援引关于朝鲜军队部署至俄罗斯的“新数据”称，这些士兵“正在接受训练，随后将被部署到俄罗斯”。
Citing “new data” on the deployment of North Korean troops to Russia, Zelensky said they were “being selected for training and subsequent deployment to Russia”.
乌克兰总统曾在8月表示，可能有多达5万名朝鲜士兵被派往俄罗斯作战，并呼吁韩国为乌克兰的防空系统提供支持。
The Ukrainian president said in August that up to 50,000 North Korean soldiers could be sent to fight for Russia, and called on South Korea to provide support for Ukraine’s air defence.
韩国在7月宣布了一项价值1亿美元（约合1.28亿新元）的对乌援助计划，但其中不包括致命性武器。
South Korea announced in July a US$100 million (S$128 million) aid package for Ukraine, although it excluded lethal weapons.
泽连斯基9月28日的言论发表之际，首尔和基辅正因他上周宣布乌克兰已将两名被俘朝鲜士兵移交给韩国一事产生分歧。首尔对该声明表示遗憾，称双方此前已达成保密协议。韩国还抗议乌克兰总统办公室否认存在此类保密协议的声明，称其为虚假陈述。
Zelensky’s comments on Sept 28 came after Seoul and Kyiv were at odds over his announcement last week that Ukraine had transferred two captured North Korean soldiers to South Korea Seoul expressed regret over his announcement, citing an agreement to keep the transfer confidential. South Korea also protested against what it called a false statement from the Ukrainian presidential office denying that such a confidentiality agreement existed.
据乌克兰和韩国估计，自2024年以来，朝鲜已派遣约1.4万至1.5万名士兵支持俄罗斯在乌克兰的战争，其中大部分被部署在库尔斯克地区，以协助击退乌克兰的入侵。
North Korea has sent an estimated 14,000 to 15,000 troops to support Russia’s war in Ukraine since 2024, according to Ukrainian and South Korean estimates, with most deployed in the Kursk region to help repel a Ukrainian incursion.
根据乌克兰及独立机构的评估，平壤还向俄罗斯提供了数百万发炮弹和迫击炮弹，以及弹道导弹、远程火炮系统和多管火箭炮系统。
Pyongyang has also supplied Russia with millions of artillery and mortar rounds, as well as ballistic missiles, long-range artillery systems and multiple-launch rocket systems, according to Ukrainian and independent assessments.
