S. Korea not considering sending soldiers to Ukraine

South Korean Defense Minister Kim Yong-hyun said that Seoul is "not at all" considering the possibility of sending troops to support Ukraine, reported from Yonhap.

"Aside from the deployment option, the dispatch of a monitoring team or analysis team is something that is definitely necessary for our military or the government (to consider) in preparation of a certain emergency that could crop up in the future," he said.

Kim noted that the South Korean government will proceed with its assistance for Ukraine "in phases" "within its "possible" capacity.

"What I meant by 'in phases' is that we will take into account how the war (in Ukraine) is faring and our solidarity with the international community," he said.

South Korean officials have been gathering information related to the war in Ukraine from the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) and Ukraine, Kim said.

"When they return to Korea, we will piece together various pieces of information from NATO and Ukraine, and set our basic position," he said.
