Yoon Suk-yeol Supports Deploying Another THAAD Battery to South Korea
The real question is whether the U.S. military wants or needs another THAAD battery in South Korea considering it is a very finite asset:
Main opposition presidential candidate Yoon Suk-yeol pledged Sunday to deploy additional units of the U.S. THAAD anti-missile system in South Korea following North Korea’s launch of an intermediate-range ballistic missile earlier in the day.
Yoon of the conservative People Power Party wrote the words “Additional THAAD deployment” on his Facebook page and did not elaborate.
The candidate has previously expressed support for the controversial missile defense system, which China has condemned as a threat to its national security.

What a joker. North Korea has fired supersonic missiles 16 times the speed of sound, no THAAD battery is going to stop their missiles. But he wants more conflict with China, while unnecessarily furthering the military dependence on the US. A stuttering quack who can’t even answer press questions without reading from his carefully prepared scripts.
