The United States has stated its readiness to defend South Korea

Today, I assured South Korean Defense Minister Kim Yong Hyun that the United States remains fully committed to the defense of the Republic of Korea, and our commitment to extended deterrence remains ironclad, Austin emphasized.

At the same time, he noted that this commitment is backed by the full range of American defense capabilities.

“Conventional missile defense, nuclear, and advanced non-nuclear capabilities. We have also returned to large-scale exercises with our ROK allies. And this strengthens our overall readiness and operational compatibility,” the head of the Pentagon noted.
