'Scrap the Lease!' Trump Pushes US Ownership of South Korea Lands, Ignites Fury Over 28,500 Troops

US President Donald Trump has sparked controversy by suggesting that the United States should own the land where over 28,500 American troops are stationed in South Korea, instead of continuing under the current lease arrangement.

Speaking with South Korean President Lee Jae-myung at the White House, Trump emphasized the massive investment made by the US in building military bases and hinted at renegotiating or taking full control.

The proposal raises questions about the future of US-South Korea relations and strategic military deployments in the region.
