South Korea rejects Russian criticism of joint US military drills
Original: S. Korea rejects Russia's criticism of joint military exercises with US
South Korea has dismissed Russian criticism of its joint military exercises with the United States, defending the drills as routine defensive training. The rebuff comes as relations between Moscow and Seoul remain strained over Russia's war in Ukraine and North Korea's growing military ties with Russia. The exercises have long drawn objections from Moscow, as well as from Pyongyang, which views them as a provocation.
Why now: Tensions between Russia and South Korea over military cooperation and the Ukraine war keep the drills in the spotlight.
