Dispatch of troops to Japan due to Canadian sanctions against North Korea, ‘long-term plan’ to dispatch British marines

On the 6th, Canada announced the deployment of military aircraft to Japan in support of UN sanctions against North Korea, and the UK announced that it was a “long-term plan” for the Marine Corps to participate in the ROK-US joint training.
At a press conference, the Secretary-General of NATO, who had a meeting with the United States, said about “increased production of ammunition,” saying, “I will not comment on how or to whom South Korea should deliver (ammunition).”
“The Canadian Air Force CP-140 Aurora Air Detachment under Operation Neon (Op) will be deployed to Japan,” Canadian Defense Minister Anita Anand said on the 6th. Composed of approximately 40 personnel and equipped with advanced sensors with a range of 7,400 km, the CP-140 Aurora is an excellent long-range patrol aircraft suitable for Operation NEON,” the press release said.
The British Ministry of Defense announced to Voice of America (VOA) on the 5th that the fact that the Marine Corps “Commando” was dispatched to the Korean Peninsula for the first time since the Korean War and participated in the US-Korea joint amphibious exercise “Ssangryong Exercise” was part of a long-term plan.
"The UK works routinely with allies and partners around the world, and our exercises on the Korean Peninsula are the result of long-term planning rather than a response to a specific event," said a spokesperson for the UK Ministry of Defense. Through joint training, we can deepen integration with participating countries.”
Forty marines from the British Marine Corps Commando Bravo Company participated in a two-day ROK-US search exercise near Pohang City from the 22nd of last month, and the UK announced that they were dispatched as a “United Nations Command (UNC) power provider.”
Regarding the deployment to Japan, the Canadian Ministry of Defense said, “HMCS Montreal equipped with CH-148 Cyclone helicopters is also moving to the Indo-Pacific region and will support Canada’s naval forward station operations Op NEON and the Op Project in the Indo-Pacific.” It highlights the value Canada places on the security of its allies and partners in the Indo-Pacific region and the importance of maintaining UN Security Council sanctions against North Korea. "This contribution to regional peace, resilience and security continues to demonstrate Canada's commitment to a rules-based international order."
On the 5th, NATO Secretary-General, who had a meeting with the US Secretary of State, was asked whether the issue of direct arms support from Korea to Ukraine was discussed at the meeting, saying, “I welcome the fact that Korea has made it clear that it is increasing (ammunition) production.” I will not comment on how or to whom (the ammunition) should be delivered.”
US Secretary of State Tony Blincoln said at a press conference at the Foreign Ministers' Meeting of NATO and partner countries in Brussels on the 5th, "We will replenish our weapons inventory, strengthen military readiness, meet NATO commitments to rotate troops for missions and operations, and continue to meet the challenges of the 21st century." It is important to have the means to confront them,” VOA reported, saying, “We welcomed the participation of Japan, Australia, Korea and New Zealand.”
