US believes supplies for North Korea's missile program come from Russia
US Secretary of State Antony Blinken called the Russian company Parsek, which is on the US sanctions list, a "key source" of goods and technology for the DPRK's missile program.
According to him, in the years 2016-2021, DPRK citizen O Yong Ho cooperated with the Parsek company and its development director, Russian citizen Roman Alar, to purchase Kevlar thread, aramid fiber, aviation fuel, bearings and high-precision milling machines.
“The connection between O Yong Ho, Roman Alar and Parsek LLC is a key source of goods and technology... for the DPRK's missile program,” Blinken's statement said.
