A few days ago, we found out that the US is planning on halting large-scale military drills with South Korea.
The U.S. military is preparing to announce that annual large-scale joint exercises conducted with South Korea every spring will no longer be held, according to two U.S. defense officials.
The major U.S.-South Korea exercises are being curtailed as part of the Trump administration’s effort to ease tensions with North Korea, the officials said. The exercises — known as Key Resolve and Foal Eagle — will be replaced with smaller, mission-specific training, according to the officials.
It’s true that President Trump has said that the exercises are too expensive, but doesn’t this seem a bit premature?
I don’t know. I go back and forth.
President Trump has finally explained his rationale.
I suppose. Thoughts?
