South Korea's withdrawal from information-sharing pact with Japan will exacerbate tensions that have flared between Seoul and Tokyo over trade and wartime history
South Korea said Thursday it was withdrawing from an agreement to share military intelligence with Japan—widening a rift between two U.S. allies and undermining Washington’s efforts to counter rivals North Korea, China and Russia.
U.S. officials said Seoul’s decision could make it more difficult to manage a security crisis in the region. The development comes as the U.S. has been facing other challenges, including a trade war with China and tensions between India and Pakistan over Kashmir.
