    I honestly think he might legitimately believe that a couple platoons of NK soldiers will clear this whole mess right up and then the world will have to take them seriously.

    The North Korean leadership is not exactly well known for their excellent grasp of reality.

      My thought is maybe either food or arms or research for arms production/nukes from the Russians.

      Edit Addendum: the article says as much actually lol. This is what I get for just trying to get an idea of NK actions from the title.

        It never leads anywhere though. North Korea has always been fobbed off with decades-old technology,it’s not like they will know.

        So everyone continues to ignore them because they continue not to be a threat. It’s not in Russia’s interest to give them anything really advanced, assuming they have anything left to give them. The best thing Russia could give them would be infrastructure engineers but they’re probably not interested in their own populace enough to consider that a worthy exchange.
