America and South Korea Relations: America and South Korea will conduct discussion-based exercises to deal with nuclear threats. US Defense Minister Lloyd Austin said this on Tuesday.

He said Washington and Seoul would hold a table-top exercise focused on nuclear threats. However, he has not given any information about when this will happen.

Will discuss security challenges

Austin is visiting Seoul for the third time as Defense Minister. During this, he will meet with his South Korean counterpart Lee Jong-sup and President Yoon Suk-yeol. The purpose of his visit is to enhance cooperation and discuss security challenges. In addition, Austin confirmed that the US has increased its deterrence commitment to the ROK (Republic of Korea)

North Korea test

Military tensions on the Korean Peninsula escalated sharply last year. Then North Korea conducted weapons tests that violated sanctions almost every month. Which also included firing the most advanced intercontinental ballistic missile. At the same time, North Korean leader Kim Jong Un also recently informed about the increase in deadly weapons in Pyongyang's nuclear arsenal.

Stress is obvious

Explain that the tension between North Korea and South Korea is well known. Relations between the two Koreas have not been normal in the last 75 years. North Korea has always been taking provocative actions against its neighboring country. He also resents the close ties between South Korea and the US.
