BRUSSELS, Belgium - Nato chief Mark Rutte said on Dec 4 that Russia was giving support to North Korea's missile and nuclear programmes in exchange for Pyongyang sending troops to fight in the war with Ukraine.

He urged Nato members to send enough arms to Ukraine to change the course of the conflict as Russian forces make gains along the front line.

"In return for troops and weapons, Russia is providing North Korea with support for its missile and nuclear programmes," Mr Rutte said after a meeting of Nato foreign ministers. "These developments could destabilise the Korean peninsula and even threaten the United States."
