Secretary of State John Kerry announced that the United States will proceed with a plan to deploy anti-ballistic missile defenses in response to North Korea’s recent nuclear weapons and missile tests.
“There should be no doubt that the United States will do whatever is necessary to defend ourselves and to honor the security commitments that we have made to allies, including to the Republic of Korea,” Kerry told reporters on Wednesday. “And we will deploy as soon as possible a Terminal High Altitude Area Defense battery to our Korean ally.”
