South Korea's President Yoon Suk Yeol visited an American nuclear-capable submarine in Busan, marking the first time in over four decades that such a submarine has docked in the country. The visit was aimed at sending a strong message to North Korea in response to its nuclear threats. The periodic visits by US nuclear ballistic missile-capable submarines to South Korea were part of the agreements reached between President Joe Biden and President Yoon in April. The US and South Korea also agreed to expand military exercises, establish a bilateral Nuclear Consultative Group, and strengthen joint planning for nuclear contingencies.
