Britain must be able to confront China, Russia, Iran and North Korea, warns new defence lead
Monday, 15 July 2024 () Britain’s armed forces must have the ability to confront a “deadly quartet” of China, Russia, Iran and North Korea, the surprise pick to lead a major review of the UK’s shrunken defences has warned.
At the UN Security Council on Friday, a representative from Conflict Armament Research said his organisation had detailed the components of missiles used against Ukraine and says the evidence shows they originated in North Korea.

The Russia-North Korea defense pact signals a significant shift in global power dynamics, challenging stability in East Asia. This alliance complicates U.S. efforts to isolate North Korea and may accelerate Pyongyang's military capabilities. China faces a dilemma, potentially losing influence over North Korea to Russia. The pact's ambiguity raises concerns about miscalculation. International responses must balance firm resolve with openness to dialogue, prioritizing diplomacy to address root causes of tension while maintaining commitment to denuclearization and UN resolutions.
