00:00John, North Korea and Russia signed a defence pact back in June which includes a form of
00:05mutual defence.
00:07Does this mean NATO could be at war with North Korea also if an open conflict did break out
00:13between NATO and Russia?
00:15It's a theoretical possibility.
00:17You would need to reach a situation which triggers the all for one and one for all clause
00:25in the NATO treaty so that NATO as a bloc would be at war with Russia and you would
00:31then have to have conflict with actual North Korean troops on the ground.
00:35So a few steps to go through before you go out to that situation but yes, it's not impossible.
