U.S. President Threatens South Korea with Trade Action Amid LNG Project Disagreement

U.S. President Donald Trump has threatened trade retaliation against South Korea if it does not proceed with an investment in an Alaska liquefied natural gas (LNG) project. Trump had announced the $54 billion venture as a key part of Seoul's U.S. investment commitment, but South Korea stated it would only invest if the project was economically viable. This dispute could escalate trade and security tensions between the two allies.
