According to Yonhap, the pro-North Korea Choson Sinbo newspaper in Japan on May 23 condemned the latest summit of the leaders of South Korea, the United States and Japan as an attempt to establish a three-way military alliance, and considered this move an act that maximizes the risk of war on the Korean Peninsula.
Choson Sinbo slammed the outcome of the trilateral meeting held on May 22 on the sidelines of the G7 summit in Hiroshima, Japan.
The newspaper stressed that such a meeting was nothing more than a "hoax play" staged to conceal the risk of military collusion.
The article said: "The plan to build a three-way military alliance outlined by the leaders of these three countries is maximally increasing the risk of war breaking out on the Korean Peninsula. This is an irreversible fact."
At the South Korea-US-Japan summit , President Yoon Suk Yeol, President Joe Biden and Prime Minister Fumio Kishida agreed to further strengthen trilateral strategic cooperation to enhance deterrence against North Korea's nuclear weapons threats, pledging to take trilateral cooperation to a new level.
Lee Do-woon, spokesman for the South Korean Presidential Office, said the leaders reached the agreement at a meeting on the sidelines of the Group of Seven (G7) Summit in Hiroshima, Japan.
The leaders pledged to further strengthen strategic cooperation to increase deterrence, as well as contribute to consolidating a free, open and rule-of-law-based international order./.
