Musk slams Harris for false claim about US troops in combat zones Earlier, Harris had said, "There is not one member of the US military in active duty in a combat zone — in any war zone around the world" NEW YORK, November 5/ US billionaire and entrepreneur Elon Musk accused Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris of lying when she claimed that no US troops are engaged in military conflicts abroad. In an interview with US podcaster Joe Rogan, Musk stated that Harris, as Vice President, must have access to information about both officially and unofficially deployed troops in combat zones. Therefore, he argued, her statement was unequivocally false. Earlier, Harris had said, "There is not one member of the US military in active duty in a combat zone — in any war zone around the world." However, the US maintains a network of over 1,000 military bases worldwide, with at least 170,000 troops stationed in more than 80 countries, including significant numbers in Japan, Germany, and South Korea. According to the Pentagon, about 1,000 US troops are currently deployed in Syria, and around 2,500 are stationed in Iraq — both of which are active combat zones. Additionally, the US military presence in Syria is considered illegal, as the US occupies parts of the country’s territory. The United States is holding its presidential election on November 5. The Democratic Party was initially expected to be represented by incumbent President Joe Biden. However, following a poor performance in the June debate with former President Donald Trump, Biden withdrew from the race and endorsed Vice President Harris, who was later formally nominated as the party’s presidential candidate at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago. #business #finance #financialservices

Biden calls Trump ‘genuine danger to American security’ He also subjected the Supreme Court to sharp criticism, and reiterated a proposal to reform it WASHINGTON DC, August 11/ US President Joseph Biden said he believes the Republican nominee for the post, Donald Trump, will undermine US security. "Mark my words: If he wins this nomination, I mean, excuse me, this election, watch what happens. It's a danger. He's a genuine danger to American security," Biden said in an interview with CBS television that aired on Sunday. "We're at an inflection point in world history, we really are," the president said. "The decisions we make in the last three, four years, and the next three or four years are going to determine what the next six decades look like. And democracy is the key."

That's who we are as a nation." He also subjected the Supreme Court to sharp criticism, and reiterated a proposal to reform it.

Donald Trump's potential return to the White House could challenge the South Korea-U.S. alliance significantly. Analysts predict turbulence reminiscent of his previous presidency, particularly in defense cost-sharing for U.S. Forces Korea (USFK). His continued emphasis on increasing South Korea’s financial contributions raises concerns, especially amid current global distractions that could delay policy shifts regarding the Korean Peninsula. The Yoon Suk Yeol administration, committed to strengthening ties with the U.S. against North Korea, may face new hurdles if Trump alters critical security initiatives from President Biden's term. Experts anticipate he'd likely seek to dismantle the Nuclear Consultative Group (NCG), which bolsters U.S. deterrence commitments. A weakened NCG could prompt South Korea to consider nuclear armament, a notion Trump may support to align nuclear capabilities between North and South Korea. Trump's inclination to renegotiate South Korea's financial commitments concerning USFK troops also raises concerns. Following the recent 12th Special Measures Agreement (SMA), which increased South Korea's contribution, Trump has suggested costs could escalate further under his administration. If reinstated, he might revisit the SMA in a manner akin to his approach with the Korea-U.S. Free Trade Agreement. While some see Trump's return as a threat to the alliance, others view it as a potential opportunity, especially regarding North Korea. His initial focus may be on international crises and domestic issues, granting South Korean officials time to prepare. Maintaining the South Korea-U.S.-Japan trilateral framework could be a consistent element of Trump’s Asia policy, though it may require increased financial contributions from Seoul and Tokyo in line with his preference for bilateral negotiations. #AsiaRisk #GeopoliticalConflictandDisputes #SouthKorea Get a full accounting of the security situation in Asia by subscribing to Security Asia.
