The Hill: Secretary of Defense James Mattis on Sunday said the roughly 28,000 U.S. troops based in South Korea are “not going anywhere.”
“It's not even a subject of the discussions,” Mattis told reporters aboard his plane while returning to Washington from the Shangri-la Dialogue in Singapore.
Mattis added that other countries, including Canada “are even putting people in. They're talking about bringing in light infantry, other troops of their own to show, you know, basically that we're all standing together.”
