Seoul’s Defence Ministry has said the allies would stage 11 field training programs involving thousands of soldiers this summer
South Korea and the United States began their annual joint military drills on Monday with a resumption of field training, officials said, as the allies seek to tighten readiness posture over North Korea’s potential weapons tests.
The drills were scaled back in recent years because of COVID-19 and as Yoon’s predecessor sought to restart talks with Pyongyang, which has called the exercises a rehearsal for invasion. North Korea has conducted missile tests at an unprecedented pace this year and is ready to conduct its seventh nuclear test at any time, Seoul officials said.
Seoul’s Defence Ministry has said the allies would stage 11 field training programs, including one at brigade-level – involving thousands of soldiers – this summer.
