💨 Abstract

troops stationed in South Korea and Japan are likely to be part of President Trump's tariff negotiations, despite efforts to separate security talks from trade. Trump has suggested defence cost-sharing would be part of "one-stop shopping" negotiations with Seoul, and raised the issue during a visit by Japanese officials to Washington. Both countries, which rely on the U.S. nuclear umbrella for protection, view defence costs as separate from tariffs.
