Pentagon: US Navy nuclear submarine will go to South Korea 05:43

Pentagon spokesman Patrick Ryder said an Ohio-class nuclear submarine would enter South Korea. It has been reported TASS.

“I won’t be announcing any deployment timelines ahead of time. There will be an Ohio-class model SSBN (nuclear ballistic missile submarine). But that’s all I can say,” said Ryder.

He stressed that he would not go into details about the submarine’s specific payload.

Former US President Joe Biden promise North Korea will face “regime change” if it launches a nuclear attack on the United States and its allies.

Prior to this, American media reported that the United States would send nuclear submarines to the shores of South Korea. CNN explains that the countries’ new agreement aims to “deter North Korean aggression” and includes Washington’s commitment to deploy a nuclear submarine in South Korea for the first time in 40 years.

On April 26, South Korean leader Yoon Seok-yeol met with Biden in Washington. The American leader said he was discussing cooperation with his interlocutors to strengthen peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait, and to ensure freedom of navigation in the South China Sea and beyond. Both leaders reaffirmed their “joint commitment to support the Ukrainian people”.
