Air Force: No bomber presence over the Korean Peninsula since talks
By: Tara Copp  
The Air Force has not conducted any bomber missions over the Korean Peninsula in the months since President Donald Trump this summer called for a suspension of exercises in support of diplomatic talks with North Korea, the service’s top general in the Pacific region told reporters Monday.
“We’ve been flying the same amount of bomber missions,†said Air Force Gen. Charles Brown, commander of U.S. Air Forces Pacific. “What we haven’t done is over Korea.â€
The president seemed to correct Mattis in his tweet and cast doubt on possible joint exercises this spring.

The flights over the Korean Peninsula are part of the U.S. continuous bomber presence to support deterrence and regional security. Instead of flying over Korea, the Air Force has focused on bomber training missions with Japan and Australia, Brown said.
