Reuters reported citing officials yesterday (10th) in local time yesterday when it said the US President Donald Trump rejected a South Korean proposal to raise at least 13 percent in relation to a labor-sharing agreement.

Reuters said former US officials said there was little hope for a new agreement in the near future.

Earlier this month, it was known earlier that the ROK-US Defense Cost Contribution Agreement had reached an opinion on the working level, but the US side is experiencing last-minute pains by stating that it is "still negotiating."

There have been observations that the Trump presidential variable, which has been demanding a significant increase, has been in operation at the end of the negotiations that seemed to be entering a tentative conclusion.
