Putin warns South Korea: Sending killer weapons to Ukraine would be a ‘big mistake’

I think he's told every country in the world the same thing at different times by now lol

But if they don't they'll be fine, right?

This is the best summary I could come up with:

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.

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.

Earlier this week, Putin used his first trip to North Korea in more than two decades to shore up relations with Pyongyang, which has pledged its support for the Kremlin’s invasion of Ukraine.

While Putin claimed the two pariah states’ defense treaty was "defensive in nature," Seoul lashed out at the agreement, with South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol calling it “absurd.”

Bound by its Foreign Trade Act, the country cannot export weapons except for “peaceful purposes.”
