Secretary of Defense James N. Mattis and the Republic of
Korea Minister of National Defense Song Young-moo have agreed to resume the
annual combined exercises including Foal Eagle and Key Resolve which were
deconflicted with the schedule of the Olympic Games. The exercises are expected to resume April 1,
2018, at a scale similar to that of the previous years.
The United Nations Command has notified the Korean People's
Army on the schedule as well as the defensive nature of the annual exercises.
In accordance with the previous practices, the Neutral
Nations Supervisory Commission will observe the exercises to confirm their
compliance with the armistice agreement.
