South Korea's President Yoon Suk-yeol calls for strong capabilities to deter any North Korean provocation amid concerns the North could conduct its first nuclear test in five years
President Yoon called for strong defence capabilities to be ready to protect the country's security and national interest.
Yoon, who took office in May, presided over his first meeting with top military commanders on Wednesday and called for strong capabilities to deter North Korea's nuclear and missile programmes, the presidential office said. The military meeting took place a day after US Air Force F-35A stealth fighters arrived in South Korea on their first publicly announced visit since 2017 as the allies and the nuclear-armed North engage in an escalating cycle of displays of weapons.
