SEOUL, June 16 – A U.S. nuclear-powered submarine has arrived at a port in the South Korean city of Busan, the South Korean military said on Friday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is the first time in nearly six years that a submarine classified as “SSGN” by the U.S. Navy, or a cruise-missile submarine, has stopped off in South Korea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The arrival comes after North Korea fired<\/a> two short-range missiles off its east coast on Thursday and follows a failed attempt by Pyongyang to launch a spy satellite last month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In April, South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol and U.S. President Joe Biden agreed in Washington to “further enhance the regular visibility of strategic assets” on the Korean Peninsula.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The leaders also agreed that a U.S. Navy nuclear-armed ballistic missile submarine (SSBN) will visit South Korea for the first time since the 1980s to help demonstrate Washington’s resolve to protect the country from a North Korean attack. There was no timetable given for such a visit.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
