Trump says he'll 'remember' S. Korea's lack of Iran help in primetime interview

Former U.S. President Donald Trump reiterated his criticism of South Korea during a recent Fox News primetime interview, claiming that the country provided little assistance during the ongoing conflict with Iran. In his remarks, Trump highlighted the significant financial investment the United States made in helping other nations without receiving commensurate support in return.

He specifically singled out South Korea and claimed that despite their earlier assistance, they declined to participate in U.S. efforts against Iran when asked. Trump emphasized that he would remember this lack of cooperation and cautioned against continuing to support countries that were not reciprocating. He also suggested that the United States might reconsider its strategy of helping nations unwilling to reciprocate with their own support.

Later in the interview, Trump acknowledged the U.S. military presence in South Korea but did not elaborate further on the topic.
