In a bombshell announcement, U.S. President Donald Trump has declared a “Full and Complete Trade Deal” with South Korea — worth a staggering $350 billion in American-controlled investments. Trump, who claims the deals were “selected by myself, as President,” also revealed a $100 billion LNG energy commitment from Seoul and exclusive, tariff-free access for U.S. products in Korean markets.
In return, South Korea’s exports to the U.S. will face a stiff 15% tariff. Trump described the agreement as a symbol of America’s dominance, likening it to the collection of “imperial tribute.” The deal includes upcoming additional investments, to be finalized when President Lee Jae Myung visits Washington. With dramatic language and economic muscle-flexing, Trump painted the deal as a massive American win — and a clear message to rival economies, particularly India and China.

North Korea has issued a stark warning to the United States and South Korea over their upcoming Ulchi Freedom Shield military drills, calling them a “direct provocation” and a serious threat to stability on the Korean Peninsula. Defense Minister No Kwang Choi, in a statement via state-run KCNA, condemned the large-scale exercise — set for August 18–28 — which will involve live field maneuvers, computer simulations, and civil defense training. He warned of “negative consequences” and vowed that Pyongyang would exercise its “sovereign right” to self-defense if provoked.
While the Combined Forces Command insists the drills are defensive in nature, half of the planned field exercises have been postponed due to extreme weather and to avoid escalating tensions. This comes as both Koreas recently removed propaganda loudspeakers along the DMZ, hinting at fragile attempts to improve relations despite the looming military standoff.
