한미일 안보회의 내달9일 서울서 개최... 의제 조율중
Senior defense officials from South Korea, the U.S. and Japan will meet in Seoul next Thursday to discuss military cooperation and regional security issues... including North Korea's nuclear and missile programs.
Seoul's Defense Ministry said Monday... it's currently narrowing down the agenda for the deputy minister-level officials at the 11th Defense Trilateral Talks.
The talks are taking place at a time when military relations between South Korea and Japan have soured... after Japan claimed that a South Korean warship had locked its radar onto a Japanese maritime patrol aircraft last December.
Seoul has denied the allegations.
