  • The Trump administration is reportedly demanding South Korea pay 400% more for U.S. troops in the region, officials said.
  • “This is a very strong alliance we have, but [South] Korea is a wealthy country and could and should pay more to help offset the cost of defense,” Defense Secretary Mark Esper said during a Friday press conference in South Korea.
  • The Defense secretary’s announcement also came after North Korea accused the U.S. on Wednesday of breaching a June 2018 deal by taking part in joint military exercises with South Korea.
