South Korea and the United States launched their first round of security talks on Tuesday to implement agreements reached by their leaders last year, including Seoul's push to acquire nuclear-powered submarines.
Australian Ambassador Jeff Robinson told Yonhap News Agency on April 12 that South Korea's nuclear-powered submarine drive and Australia's AUKUS program are separate but proceeding in parallel. He stressed that both must build international trust in their peaceful intentions. Robinson also highlighted shared energy security challenges amid the Middle East crisis and deepening defense ties.

The Pentagon's 2026 National Defense Strategy emphasizes South Korea's leading role in Korean Peninsula security, which the defense ministry welcomed. Foreign Minister Cho Hyun discussed with a US official the need to acquire nuclear-powered submarines to enhance deterrence and the alliance. This aligns with President Trump's 'America First' policy, pushing for stronger self-reliant defense in South Korea.
