The United States' Strategic Assets to the Korean Peninsula

The US South Korea Alliance has already had consultative mechanisms where the two sides discuss these matters. But now they have one that has the word nuclear the title. I think as far as political reassurance goes, this is going to be helpful,. I think it will mean the salience of weapons in the Alliance's debates at the alliance level. The U.S. doesn't have any kind of architecture for talking about extended deterrence outside of its bilateral alliances and multilateral structures like NATO.
