South Korea, U.S. scale back drills over coronavirus, North Korea diplomacy.

ABC News contributor Stephen Ganyard discusses the significance of the UN report and what it means for the United States’ ability to control North Korea.SEOUL, South Korea -- The South Korean and U.S. militaries are scaling back their annual exercises this month due to the COVID-19 pandemic and to support diplomacy focusing on North Korea’s nuclear program, officials said Sunday.

It said the drills are defensive in nature and are mostly tabletop exercises and simulations that won’t involve field training. U.S.-South Korea drills have been a major source of animosities on the peninsula, with North Korea viewing them as invasion rehearsals and responding with its own weapons tests. In January, North Korean leader Kim Jong Un urged the U.S. to withdraw its hostile policy and South Korea to end drills with the U.S., warning the fate of their relations with North Korea depends on how they behave.

The nuclear negotiations have been stalled for about two years since a February 2019 summit between Kim and then Presidentcollapsed due to wrangling over U.S.-led sanctions on North Korea. The government of South Korean President Moon Jae-in, which facilitated the early part of the U.S.-North Korea talks, has been calling for the diplomacy’s restart and greater inter-Korean ties.
