president biden. please select your reporter 1st. severe the p. as. thank you mister president. i have a question for each of the leaders still be brief and but related to present button 1st for you. how confident should a should be about a robust american commitment to a nuclear umbrella? when the compare commander in chief who proceeded you and is looking to succeed, you spoke openly about reducing the us footprint and the korean peninsula president you. how much confidence can japan in the us have about souls? long term commitment to reproach meant when pulse show the solid majority of creat disapproves, of your handling and mending of the forced labor issue and prime minister shita. what assurances can you give to your country citizens who fear bolstering your security cooperation in this matter could lead to the country into a economic cold war with china?

and if you'll indulge me, mister president, on a domestic matter. um, what is your reaction to the special council appointment last week into your son? thank you. first of all, look, there's not much. if anything i agree on with my predecessor of foreign policy. is america 1st policy walking away from the rest of the world is, is this week or not strong america, strong with our allies in our alliances. and that's why we door is this trends that quite frankly, that increases all or 3 or students. so this is just about one son it. what makes today is different is it actually launch is a series of initiatives that are actually on institutional changes and how we deal with one another and security cooperation, economic cooperation, technology,

cooperation, development, cooperation, consultation exercise, and all of this will crate out our so momentum. i believe, year by year, month by month to make the relationship stronger and more certain to remain to be in place. and we go on these as a result, i think you're gonna keep going and i think you're gonna benefit all our countries . and with regard to the 2nd question, i may have no comment on any investigation that's going on. that's up to the justice department. and that's all i have to say. no ticket isn't. you know, there isn't a time i come to the question that was directed to me. i would like to say that the treaty made between korea and japan that was made in 1965 and

the following ventures by the government. and the supreme court's ruling in 2015 has some differences. but we have already implemented measures to bridge the gaps among them. and in south korea, of course, there's popular opinion that as opposed to the government's measures like that. however, from a perspective that's for looking strengthening ties and improving relationship between korea and japan are important. and there is a shared understanding that this matters to our bilateral relationship as well as our future. and this is something we need to continue working on. so sayings to full or the question. first

of all, at today's meeting, the rules are based international order and activities in consistent to such a rule based international order and activities. other concepts has st shed and the rule based defeat and open intentional order must be defended and going forward. us to japan wrote k strategic because operation that will be reinforced even further. as such endeavors the will continue going forward of a country and for the surrounding countries, the response capabilities as well as the defense, the capability teeth will be posted and by doing so, the knives and i've just heard of a population of will be protected. and the sense of assurance must be raised to

these other important activities. having said that, with regard to china last year in november, that douglas is a japan, china. the lead is summit, and there was a positive momentum by maintaining the positive moment to what has to be upset. it will be asserted and who wished to strongly request the responsible conduct and we will continue and accumulate the conversation about multiple issues. we will cooperate with regard to come and chat inches, such as constructive and stable relationship. it will be established by you to effort that this is my administration is consistent the policy based on this to section towards the regional stability if it's will continue. thank you. president,

you next question please. to the money today, please go ahead and ask a question to reporter from money today, the porter named tim park. please go ahead with your question mike. hi, i'm trying to park a money today. first of all, i would like to ask a question to press on you and so go of the republic of korea. i you, i heard that you say that that is a new chapter has opened at our try lateral cooperation with the 2 countries compared to the previous summit. what would be the most significant outcome that you gained to through the summit? and also from the perspective of our people, what will be the benefit that the people would of korea would feel from these us

strengthening of ties. and now my question goes to present bite and during the new era in partnerships with japan and south korea, ours and the announcement there by the us president joe biden, some codes really by each of the other leaders standing there, the prime minister of japan from you because she the and the south korean president you and so cool, joe biden went on to say how they made history with the 1st trial, actual meeting and the commitment to meet again. annually administered the spring and robot kelly joins us from columbus, ohio. he's an expert in asia pacific relations, north korea and china. so 1st of all, looking at all of this does, it boils down to one thing, robert, which is how to create a new alliance to try and counter china us. yeah, i think that's

a pretty good take away from what happened. i think that's a pretty good one. minor for this event. china is pretty obviously the big structural pressure in the region. pushing a lot of countries actually to sort of reevaluate the relationships and, and, and talk to countries who might be partners the united states and vietnam for example, didn't talk very well for many years, for obvious reasons, because of the war that started talking to each other. because of china, and that is also in this case, push salary and japan towards each other, right? as you know, your, your correspondence are talked about today, right? those relationships and difficult between software and japan. a lot in the past, but to a certain extent, you know, chinese breathing down everybody's neck and you know, so the south koreans and japanese are, you know, increasingly willing to talk to each other and, uh, you know, buying those down because everybody has done a good job trying to shepherd that and here we are. all right, let's go through some of the items on the menu as it was, it has been announced today, annual joint exercises, annual meetings. a bite of the presidents will the lead, as i should say,

annual defense ministers meeting the launching by the end of the year over system. that mom, it says north korean missiles. if you're all of those, say some of those things that right, we have actually sort of occurred before, right. there actually been defense minister meetings, for example, in the past and often the, the leaders of the various parties are met in the silence of summit, some and things of g 7 meetings and things like that. so it says you're saying this is sort of a formalization of institutionalization of a lot of what has happened to fact. so in the past that in itself is progress in part because by institutionalized, by making it so rigorous and building it into the calendar of all 3 countries that makes it harder for successor. presidents are prime ministers to change this should break this up. right? and that's the concern, for example, donald trump becomes present again the united states will just walk away from this . right? if user institutionalize and normalized, it becomes harder for him to do that. i think the real issue is of the last point

you made about your grade or consultation, right. did the answer military affairs took their nuclear affairs and that's really going to be and this is north korea's nuclear program gets worse and worse. right? you actually have to serve, have some kind of planning. i mean, these days we're going to really work together the 3 countries. and there's gotta start to be some kind of meaningful planning on what to do. america uses the conflict, what it's trying to attack by one, what kind of blockades or the shipments do this out. trying to see. i'm in a lot of really pretty serious scenarios out there that are being served, kicked around and you know, at some point the leaders are gonna have to move beyond these kinds of summer time . this is good stuff, which i mean pretty soon. yeah. which want to get through with some kind of planning and me that's sort of the big non entity in this summit. right. and there's not actually been much about like. ready trying to like nail down a party, some of what to do in, in some of these scenarios. and, and so that, i guess that's just for later date. well, the has been talk about and even they have been moves by nato. it's, it's kind of kind of strength and it's relationship with what they call asian

partners. should we say this meeting and this coming together in that context to an agent. nato is far away from the cultural distinctions between the possible members or why the geographic dispersion is why they're political issues as well. you know, like i said earlier in japan are really far away. for example, just makes the hard to cooperate. but it's not really clear with the united states actually wants to get into the business of building a drug here, because that would almost certainly spark a major change reaction. right? we're trying to sort of like, i'm wondering what kind of contain china, but we don't actually want to say that you don't want to find one sense, huge missile build up or something like that, like the soviets in the sixty's. and so we're trying to sort like dance around china, but a, this is so i wouldn't use like the native language. i think that's a bridge to bar, but it is an effort to build more multilateral. right. it isn't ever by the united states move beyond sort of these one to one relationships and it has no with the philippines with highly a japan software. it isn't ever to go beyond that kind of by lateralism and moved

towards more multi lateral or joint structure. right. in order to. ready ordinary responses and avoid redundancies and something like that. but let's come take a long time and that's like decades of effort. and i know you've already spoken about how this is an attempt to institutionalize it and maybe future proof that if we could use that to. but these are the realities that isn't the reality that beyond donald trump, when you look at a very politically polarized america, that is a question mark about how sustainable a direction the us is on. yeah, that's correct. i would have to make the same point. i would have to argue at about south period to where i think there's a lot of polarization about you and such a present use of software about use initiative, sports, japan, that can do a lot of anxiety there. and so we at least do the partners. i don't know, actually you constitutional ization will work and i think define to do that. i said teacher group, but that's a rate great way. i think the counsel of the time to do what i mean isn't boxed

right. i mean, if you let somebody comes and says, i want to do that, i want to do something else. i mean, that's kind of what you have to do. and particularly donald trump, right? i mean, we know that donald trump just doesn't pay attention to institutions, right? he's going to come in and do whatever he wants. so i don't know, you know, maybe you can do that and soft free of, i don't know if i can do that in united states back. that would probably say no, it's a trump comes back into your house. he will probably blow up this tri letters and because he just didn't really care, but he made very little effort, encourage band stuck in the past. ultimately, robert, bottom line here is this making the asia pacific region safer or a riskier place. is this going to push china closer into the arms of russia and force them? and whoever is unlike with them to come up with their own blog, which might actually be more stable than the used by the in relationship or blocks and broad getting merging. now with, with japan. so the reasons you just mentioned or yeah, that's a really, that's a really good question. if you'd ask me that 10 years ago, does that. yeah,

it was actually making the regional little bit riskier because of exactly because back chinese backlash that you're thinking of. but i think now this is more is increasing the response to one, the belligerent term under present choosing thing in china. right. and child's behavior has gotten a lot worse. quite honestly, is maritime perimeter in the last 8 years or so. and also does the response to north korea to it's it's now very, very clear after donald trump's presidency, when he went to north korea that the north grades are just held bank. i'm building a major nuclear arsenal. we have very little transparency out about it. we don't know very little about what they have ready, what, what their doctrine is. i mean, i'm just not sure what the us out. you mentioned the word, but ultimately really isn't the target china that isn't the perception that north korea is, to a certain extent, a called an extension of chinese influence. actually i would argue that ne foreign policy is actually a little bit more independent of china that i'm yet sort of of the debate. i is the

kind of the long term. so chronic crisis rights or how we respond to the growth of chinese power. the next several decades. right. but i mean if there's actually going to be some kind of like crisis at a rough the next few years, isn't that a chronic crisis? a northeast asia? is that to your career because of the will pass to be able to do their program. right. and those 2 things overlapping officer boats or joint drivers of what's happening anyway. i'm not sure how much can pull them apart. i mean south ridge pam, united states, been talking about north korea and you grew up in since the 9th ninety's. all right, we'll leave with that. thanks so much for your thoughts and analysis. robert kelly . thanks for having me. so, let's head to atlanta in georgia. now the citywide donald trump was indicted just a few days ago, his rivals for the republican presidential nomination, amazing the to rally support for that white house campaigns. form of us president says he plans to skip the 1st republican primary debate on wednesday. robert reports in the us media that he plans to conducted alternative interview. john 100
