WASHINGTON, Feb 4 ― South Korea Foreign Minister Park Jin said after meeting US top diplomat Antony Blinken yesterday that Seoul and Washington were committed to strengthening “extended deterrence” in relation to North Korea.
“The ROK and the US will continue our watertight coordination to achieve genuine peace on the Korean Peninsula,” Park said during a joint news conference following the meeting at the State Department in Washington. Park and Blinken's meeting followed a visit to Seoul this week by US Defence Secretary Lloyd Austin, who vowed to expand military drills and boost nuclear deterrence planning to counter North Korea's weapons development and prevent a war.
