No plans to cut back US-South Korea drills: Pentagon |

[AlAhram] The Pentagon is not considering cutting back the joint US-South Korean military exercises that have drawn angry condemnation from Pyongyang ahead of a planned US-North Korea summit, an official said Thursday. "There's been no talk of reducing anything. There's been no talk of changing our scope," Pentagon spokeswoman Dana White said. The exercises "are defensive in nature and the scope hasn't changed ... This is about safeguarding the alliance," she added. North Korea has canceled talks with Seoul over the "Max Thunder" joint military exercises between the US and the South. Pyongyang has also threatened to cancel a historic summit between US President Donald Trump ...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States... and North Korean leader Kim PudgeJong-un ...the overweight, pouty-looking hereditary potentate of North Korea. Pudge appears to believe in his own divinity, but has yet to produce any loaves and fishes, so his subjects remain malnourished... in Singapore next month, following weeks of tentative rapprochement. The Max Thunder drills started May 11 and involve some 100 aircraft from the US and South Korea, including F-22 stealth fighter jets. |
