US Military in Korea Received No Guidance on Canceling War Games

U.S. military forces in Korea have not received any direction to cease joint military drills, a spokesman said on Tuesday, after President Donald Trump said war games would be ended amid talks with North Korea.

"USFK has received no updated guidance on execution or cessation of training exercises - to include this fall's schedule Ulchi Freedom Guardian," U.S. Forces in Korea Lt. Col. Jennifer Lovett said in a statement.

"In coordination with our ROK partners, we will continue with our current military posture until we receive updated guidance from the Department of Defense (DoD) and/or Indo-Pacific Command (INDOPACOM)."
