🔺Protests in Korea against troop deployment to the Strait of Hormuz 🔹Dozens of South Korean citizens gathered in front of the US embassy to express their opposition to the possible participation of their country in a maritime mission in the Strait of Hormuz. 🔹Protesters, holding signs, called on the South Korean government not to succumb to pressure from Washington to send troops to the Strait of Hormuz and not to join the "aggressive war." 🔹This rally took place while Seoul officials are under pressure from the US and are considering the possibility of sending troops to the region. 🔹The South Korean government had previously announced that it dispatched a delegation to assess the conditions, but emphasized that no decision has yet been made regarding troop deployment. 🔹Earlier, the spokesperson for the Foreign Ministry warned that any military presence or participation by other countries in the Persian Gulf and the Strait of Hormuz would be regarded as direct support for the aggressor, leading to dangerous consequences.
