Odaily Planet Daily News: On the 8th local time, U.S. President Trump stated at a Cabinet meeting in the White House that South Korea should pay for its own military defense costs and suggested that South Korea needs to pay more for the U.S. troops stationed in South Korea. Trump stated that the presence of U.S. forces brings enormous economic benefits to South Korea, while it is a huge loss for the United States, which is very unfair. Trump mentioned that he had previously made South Korea agree to pay more for the U.S. troops stationed in South Korea during his first term, but 'the previous President Biden canceled this agreement.' Trump said that the U.S. provides supplies for the militaries of many very successful countries, but they should pay for their own militaries. It is reported that approximately 28,500 U.S. troops are currently stationed in South Korea.
