Surprise visit. The Minister of Foreign Affairs, Jean-Noël Barrot, announced on Friday October 18 that he would go to Ukraine. “Support, again and again, for Ukraine’s resistance against Russian aggression, he writes in a message posted on X. Respect for international law is the condition of our collective security.” He will be accompanied by the presidents of the foreign affairs committees of the National Assembly and the Senate, Bruno Fuchs and Cédric Perrin, specifies the Quai d’Orsay.
Shortly before this announcement, the spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Christophe Lemoine, estimated that the increase in military support from North Korea to Russia was “very worrying”. South Korean intelligence services assured Friday that North Korea had deployed a first contingent of 1,500 soldiers of its special forces to Vladivostok, in the Russian Far East, and would send more soon.
