.@POTUS-- together with Japan and ROK leaders--made historic agreements this summer at the Camp David Summit. Today, I participated in trilateral discussions with Ministers of Defense from Japan and ROK to advance our mutual lines of effort from that important Summit that further strengthens our alliances and shared vision of a free and open Indo-Pacific.

👇From @DeptofDefense. Biden administration preparing to pursue "modern variant of B61 nuclear gravity bomb, designated B61-13." Bomb will strengthen US nuclear deterrent & provide addl option to POTUS for "certain harder & large-area military targets." 1/defense.gov/News/Releases/Re…

B61-13 will "replace some of the B61-7s in the current nuclear stockpile and have a yield similar to the B61-7, which is higher than that of the B61-12." Bomb will not increase overall size of US nuclear arsenal. See also fact sheet below. #deterrence media.defense.gov/2023/Oct/2…
