U.S. Refrains From Commenting On South Korea-U.S. Joint Military Exercises

The U.S. has refrained from commenting on the resumption of South Korea-U.S. joint military exercises.

Asked whether there will be large-scale joint drills in August, Pentagon Press Secretary John Kirby said Monday that he doesn’t have anything to announce at the moment.

He said the Pentagon constantly reviews the situation, taking into account the “strategic environment.”

He added they make sure training events are properly scaled to any threats.
