South Korea Accepts US Weapons Redeployment

0:00Here's more world news for March 10th. South Korean President Lee Jae-mi-ung spoke out this week about U.S. forces in Korea moving some weapons out of the country. He said on Tuesday that Seoul cannot block the shipments, even though it has raised objections. The President noted a recent controversy over the move by U.S. troops stationed there. South Korea made its opposition clear, but lacks the authority to demand they stay. Lee stressed that the redeployments will not weaken defenses against North Korea. Defense on the peninsula remains strong, he assured. Meanwhile, four minister Cho Hyun shared more details on Friday. He said the U.S. and South Korean militaries are in talks about shifting some patriot missile systems. Those defenses might head to the Middle East conflict. Discussions continue to ensure everything stays coordinated. We'd like to thank our sponsor for making this episode possible. Headphones in a pillow. Once you try it, it just makes sense.
