In both countries, the development of their own nuclear weapons is being debated . South Korea has been arming itself militarily for years because of the North Korean threat. Japan now wants to double its defense budget to two percent of gross domestic product. US defense expert Elbridge Colby warns that Japan is reacting too slowly. “I’m worried,” he told the Japanese newspaper “Nikkei” . »I see a lot of progress, but the question is: is it fast enough to counter the threat? And I’m skeptical about that.”

Offen wie nie wird in beiden Staaten über die Entwicklung eigener Atomwaffen debattiert . Südkorea rüstet wegen der nordkoreanischen Bedrohung ohnehin seit Jahren militärisch auf, Japan will nun sein Verteidigungsbudget verdoppeln auf zwei Prozent des Bruttoinlandsprodukts. US-Verteidigungsexperte Elbridge Colby aber warnt, Japan reagiere zu langsam. »Ich bin besorgt«, sagte er der japanischen Zeitung »Nikkei« . »Ich sehe viele Fortschritte, aber die Frage ist: Geht es schnell genug, um der Bedrohung zu begegnen? Und da bin ich skeptisch.«

ilities may be present in this decade,” he said. “But will we be ready?”
