President Lee Jae-myung said that he did not reject former US President Trump's request to dispatch troops to the Strait of Hormuz. The president said there would be no war intervention or troop deployment, but that he was reviewing specific ways to contribute with the international community, including the United States, for the safety of the people and national interests. Currently, the Cheonghae Unit is responding to threats to national security such as piracy, and measures to strengthen it are also being considered. The government will maintain its principle of not participating in war and combat intervention, and plans to continue reviewing specific ways to contribute.
