The Department of Defense is working on a plan to withdraw around 4,500 US troops from South Korea and relocate them to other places in the Indo-Pacific region, including to the island of Guam, the officials familiar with the matter said. Top US commanders have warned against the move, arguing it could weaken America’s ability to deter Pyongyang, Beijing, and Moscow. With 28,500 troops currently stationed in South Korea, any drawdown would likely rattle US allies across the region, the report said.
