ARK News… Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova denied Western allegations that her country had secretly received weapons from North Korea, describing them as misleading.

During a press conference, Zakharova stressed the lack of credibility of US officials and that everything they are promoting against Moscow is just speculation, from which they create lies and misleading propaganda, to be used as a pretext to impose more sanctions against Russia to undermine it.

This came in response to statements by the US National Security Council Strategic Communications Coordinator, John Kirby, that North Korea is providing Russia with artillery shells for use in its military operation in Ukraine.

For its part, the North Korean Defense Ministry denied the validity of the US allegations and stressed their lack of credibility.
