SUA au redus intempestiv exercițiile militare comune cu un aliat-cheie. Ordinul primit de Pentagon

President Trump ordered a significant reduction in joint military exercises with South Korea, citing costs and Seoul's refusal to engage against Iran. The exercises, initially set for 11 days, were to adapt to North Korea's evolving military capabilities. Despite Trump's concerns, the drills began as scheduled, focusing on counter-drone operations and cyber defense. Analysts suggest this decision may aim to improve diplomatic relations with North Korea, although it could weaken deterrence in Asia. The relationship between Trump and Kim Jong Un has fluctuated, with past tensions and attempts at diplomacy.
