TL;DR Summary

Poland's Prime Minister, Mateusz Morawiecki, has called for President Biden's intervention to secure South Korean artillery shells for Ukraine's fight against Russia. Leaked intelligence documents suggest that South Korean officials are reluctant to provide the ammunition, fearing it could violate their country's rules against providing lethal aid to nations at war. Morawiecki believes that South Korea's vast supplies of artillery shells could be critical to keeping the Ukrainians in the fight, but a deal would require more direct involvement from Biden to assure South Korea that the United States would offer support in the face of any aggressive response from China or Russia.
