South Korea talks with US on management of nukes under way
Seoul | South Korea reconfirmed on Tuesday that Seoul and Washington are discussing its involvement in US nuclear asset management in the face of intensifying North Korean nuclear threats, after President Joe Biden denied that the allies were discussing joint nuclear exercises.
The purported difference came after North Korean leader Kim Jong-un entered the new year with a vow to mass-produce battlefield nuclear weapons targeting South Korea and introduce a more powerful intercontinental ballistic missile capable of striking the mainland US.
