WASHINGTON, Aug. 19 (Yonhap) -- Two senators have sent a letter to U.S. President Donald Trump and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth calling on them to reverse their decision to scale back the ongoing South Korea-U.S. military exercise, warning that the cuts could degrade the allies' readiness and send a "wrong" signal to North Korea.
