米韓が19~29日、合同軍事演習を実施…「米韓核指針」の反映はどこまでか?
US and South Korea to conduct joint military exercises from the 19th to the 29th...To what extent will the US-South Korea Nuclear Guidelines be reflected?
The United States and South Korea will conduct the Ulchi Freedom Shield (UFS) exercise from the 19th to the 29th of this month to establish a joint defense posture.
Lee Sang-jun, director of the public affairs office of the South Korean Joint Chiefs of Staff, and Ryan Donald, director of the public affairs office of the ROK Combined Forces Command, said on the 1
The announcement was made at a joint press conference held at the Ministry of National Defense building in Seoul on the 2nd. The US and South Korea are taking measures to combat "escalating North Korean missile threats, GPS jamming, cyber attacks, and land, sea and air attacks."
"In particular, we will place emphasis on responding to North Korea's WMD (weapons of mass destruction) and will conduct multi-domain operations utilizing a variety of assets," the statement said.
"During the UFS exercise, joint field maneuver training will be expanded to land, sea, and air domains, and mutual maneuvering will be carried out," he said.
"We will strengthen the practicality and practicality of the exercises," he said, emphasizing that the exercises will clearly demonstrate the operational capabilities and will of the U.S.-ROK alliance.
This is the first exercise since U.S. President Biden held a summit on the sidelines of the NATO summit last month and the U.S. and South Korea adopted the "Guidelines for Nuclear Deterrence and Nuclear Operations on the Korean Peninsula."
Given this, attention is focused on the extent to which and in what form the US-ROK nuclear guidelines will be reflected in this exercise.
Through the nuclear guidelines, the US and South Korea have decided to shift the US-South Korea alliance from being centered on conventional forces to being centered on nuclear warfare.
The decision was made to upgrade the "power base" and conduct "nuclear-conventional integration (CNI)" training.
