Agent Orange: S. Korean FM leaves open possibility of SOFA revision

S. Korean FM leaves open possibility of SOFA revision

South Korean Foreign Minister Kim Sung-hwan on Tuesday left open the possibility of revising a legal code governing U.S. troops in the country, amid mounting concerns about the possible burial of toxic materials at a U.S. base in South Korea.

"We first need to see the results of the investigation at Camp Carroll," Kim said, referring to the base where Agent Orange was allegedly buried. "If the current legal provisions are not enough, we will start negotiations with the U.S. to revise SOFA."
