Russian president delivered the warning after Seoul announced it would consider arming Kyiv.
Russian President Vladimir Putin Thursday warned South Korea that sending lethal weapons to Ukraine would be a “big mistake.”
His comments come after Seoul announced it would consider arming Ukraine in response to Russia and North Korea signing a mutual defense pact on Wednesday.
“If South Korea supplies weapons to Ukraine, it will not like the answer. I hope they won’t do it, it would be a big mistake,” Putin said at a press conference in Vietnam, where he is conducting a two-day state visit aimed at deepening strategic cooperation.
Putin pledged military aid to South Korea’s greatest enemy, but then throws a hissy fit when South Korea considers military aid fir Ukraine in response. I’m sick of seeing the world being run by idiotic toddlers.
Like most tyrants, they purge critical minds and leave yes men. It increasingly skews their perception of reality and leaves them to think they’re far smarter than they really are. Putin is so fucked lol.
When Putin says it will be a mistake, it’s probably a very good idea 💡
It would be a mistake to send this amount of material. We should double the shipment. Hell, triple it.
That guy is still alive? Do I have to go there my self and build a 5 story building with precarious under engineered balconies?
Seriously dude, it seems no one in Russia has any balls. I was told Russia was a country in despair. Where are all the suicidal folk with a chip on their shoulder?
This is how dictators exist. The valuables they are stealing from their country get reinvested not just to their personal enrichment but also enriching those people key to keeping them in power, from bodyguard to security departments that spend most of their time monitoring citizens for wrong think.
The amount of times I’ve seen the headline “Putin tells [/Insert_Country] that [/Insert_UkraineAid] would be a ‘big mistake’”…
If South Korea does this, he’ll tell his fat buddy Kim to send more shit balloons over the border.
Eww, shit balloons.
Yes, South Korea wouldn:t want to ruin their friendship with their neighbors in the North. You know the ones always sending them gifts
Ballons full of shit a fair exchange to unsolicited K-Pop tbh
It’s not. You don’t have to play the K-Pop USB sticks, but you sure as hell can’t avoid smelling the shit NK drops on your house.
Yeah huge mistake, just look at what’s happened to all the other countries that did!
/s
And Putin knows everything there is about big mistakes
Bark bark bark
At this point he should just shut up. If Putins tells someone to not do something it is very likely that it is the exact thing they ought to do.
That’s a … really well defined threat…

Oh god please no, please don’t escalate this war by adding the killer kind of weapons to it
Sort of like how it would be a big mistake if NATO armed them.
And then NATO armed them.
We’ll send them bitchin’ weapons then.
Don’t make us send the gnarly weapons!
Or the weapons of Ultraviolence.
