Afghan Voice Agency (AVA): South Korean President Yoon Seok-yul, who visited Kiev, said his country will provide more military equipment and humanitarian aid to Ukraine.
The unannounced visit of the President of South Korea to Kyiv was made after his attendance at the NATO Summit in Lithuania and his visit to Poland.
On Saturday evening, during a joint press conference with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, Yoon said that South Korea plans to provide a larger scale of military supplies to Kiev this year, without providing any further details.
According to the Reuters news agency, he explained that South Korea also plans to provide $150 million in humanitarian aid to Ukraine this year, which is an increase of $50 million compared to last year.
The South Korean president also added that Seoul will cooperate with Kyiv in projects such as reconstruction and infrastructure construction by providing loans and financial aid.
According to the report, while thanking Yun for South Korea's support for Ukraine, Zelensky said: "We are discussing everything that is important for the normal and safe life of people."
South Korea's positions towards Russia and Ukraine have intensified in the circumstances that America and Western allies have asked South Korea to support Ukraine.
South Korea's position towards Ukraine has resulted in Russia's reaction. In this regard, "Dmitry Peskov", the spokesman of the Kremlin Palace, strongly criticized South Korea's decision to provide weapons and military aid to Ukraine on the 30th of this year and said that South Korea has also joined Ukraine's war with Russia.
Previously, during the meeting with South Korea's Defense Minister Lee Jong-sup, EU foreign policy official Joseph Burrell pressured Seoul to send ammunition and military equipment to Ukraine.
