A France-trained force aims to strengthen Ukraine's defenses at a critical point in war

The approaching return to Ukraine of the "Anne of Kyiv" brigade, after more than two months of intense military training in eastern and southern France, comes at another critical juncture in the almost three-year war.

Russian forces are driving westward in an effort to capture all of Ukraine's eastern Donbas region. They've been bolstered by up to 12,000 North Korean troops that have been deployed to Russia's Kursk border region to help beat back Ukrainian forces there, according to U.S., South Korean and Ukrainian intelligence assessments.

The first item on their agenda was what they could learn from the United States in this regard
