Seoul directly rejects a US demand to join the Iran war and support denuclearization of Iran, which Trump cites as the trigger for cutting military exercises.

Al Jazeera English

“This is absolutely bananas. Trump says we're suspending exercises with South Korea because of his "really good relationship" with Kim Jong-un. North Korea is nuclear-armed, threatens South Korea, and is actively helping Russia wage war against Ukraine.”
