President Lee Jae-myung said on Friday that South Korea will swiftly retake wartime operational control from the United States and accelerate military reforms including selective conscription. Speaking at a meeting with top military leaders in Seoul, he urged forces to heighten readiness amid a 'grave' security situation involving a prolonged Middle East war and North Korea's border fortifications in the DMZ. He stressed self-reliant defense while maintaining the Korea-U.S. alliance.
