Waaaaiiit a minute. There can be no N. Korean soldiers killing Russian soldiers in Russia because according to Russia, there are no N. Korean soldiers in Russia.

How to escape punishment:

Step 1: Carry white flag

Step 2: Go to Ukraine

Step 3: ~~Profit?~~ Survive?

Their families are probably held hostage to prevent this.

Survival instincts are stronger than loyalty to family (or country, for that matter). Besides, they've already committed a crime by killing russians soldiers, their families are probably getting executed either way.

They were probably ordered to drop their sausages.

“And then they switched from Armour sausages to the Smithfield sausages but I kept the Armour sausages because they don’t bind me up as much. If they try to take my Armour sausages I’ll, I’ll frag my CO.”

So basically they imported North Koreans to kill bad guys (ukrainians) without vetting them and then are shocked when those people kill the bad guys (Russian)?
