#Korea’s participation in global R&D through #HorizonEurope since 2025 can lead to the acceleration of domestic #OpenScience policies and developments in line with global trends.
With Russia's military stocks running low and domestic production capacity simultaneously hampered by Western sanctions, North Korea has been shaping up as Russia's leading weapons supplier, reportedly providing Moscow with extensive military packages, including ballistic missiles and over 3 million artillery shells.
Contrary to the misconception that #OpenScience and #patents are not compatible, they co-exist.
Inventors can openly publish the findings after filing a patent application.
In countries like #Korea with a ‘grace period’ for pre-filing disclosures, inventors can publicly share their results even before submitting a patent application. Art. 30 of Korea’s Patent Act allows a 1-year grace period for various disclosures made before filing a patent application.
South Korea's intelligence service is conducting a review into suspicions that North Korea has provided Russia with artillery shells and other weaponry made in the 1970s, the country's National Intelligence Service (NIS) said on May 12.
While the number of missiles Pyongyang has given to Moscow remains a tiny percentage of Russia's overall stockpiles, Ukraine and its allies are concerned about the growing ties between the two countries.
Russia has been shipping refined petroleum to North Korea in volumes that may violate the U.N. Security Council's restrictions, U.S. National Security Council spokesperson John Kirby said on May 2, according to Reuters.
#trump and, in fairness, most western commentators fail to understand that in return for "paying for South Korea's defence" that they are in direct command of the South Korean military (the moment that war breaks out).
It would be fair to say that South Korea does not even have a military. What exists is a US foreign auxiliary legion.
South Korea spends a crippling 2.7% of GDP for defence. Including a billion dollar fee for being occupied by US troops.
As well as #US opcon over South Korean military, free bases (actually Korea pays $1bn annually to be occupied and gives valuable real estate for this for free), Korea also procures expensive items for the defence of other overseas US bases eg. in Guam and Okinawa.
SM3 interceptor missiles have no defence purpose for #korea, yet $600m out of procurement budget goes to Raytheon (US) and Mitsubishi (who owe compensation to korean slave labour victims)
