    I meant that if Russia and NK can’t afford to keep troops on the front, then they should withdraw and send them home. Not that individual soldiers should defect and return to their homes. That would be incredibly stupid, since it’s probably punishable by execution.

      Both can afford North Korean soldiers just fine. There are suggestions that North Korea gets missile technology designs and North Korea sends disposable soldiers and old, rusty equipment.
