Thank you for being here with me as we examine a major strategic statement from East Asia. As referenced in a report by AL24 News, South Korea has clarified that its interest in pursuing nuclear-powered submarines is not aimed at igniting an arms race, but at strengthening long-term maritime security in an increasingly unstable region. Seoul emphasized that its submarine ambitions stem from the need to counter evolving underwater threats, particularly those posed by North Korea’s expanding missile-submarine programs and the growing naval pressure from nearby powers.
The report highlights how nuclear-powered submarines would give South Korea extended underwater endurance, stealth, and rapid-response capability — essential advantages in the contested waters of the Korean Peninsula and the broader Indo-Pacific. Seoul’s insistence that this move is defensive underscores its desire to maintain stability while ensuring it is not outpaced by regional adversaries. The statement also reflects a recognition that conventional submarines, while capable, may not provide the persistent deterrence needed in today’s shifting security landscape.
In my view, if South Korea proceeds, it must pair this technological leap with transparent diplomacy, ensuring regional partners understand its objectives. This balance between capability and communication will be its strongest tool to prevent misinterpretation and maintain peace.
Thank You.
