Local time on the 8th, US President Trump said at a White House cabinet meeting that South Korea should pay for its own military defense costs, and hinted that South Korea needs to pay more for US troops stationed in South Korea. Trump said that the presence of the US military brings huge economic benefits to South Korea, while it is a huge loss for the United States, which is very unfair. Trump said that he had asked South Korea to agree to pay more for US troops stationed in South Korea during his first term, but "former President Biden canceled the agreement." Trump said that the United States provides supplies to the military of many very successful countries, but they should pay for their own military. It is reported that there are currently about 28,500 US troops stationed in South Korea. [Odaily Planet Daily]
