TOKYO (Reuters) - The United States plans discuss with Japan how to boost
the nuclear deterrent it provides for its Asian ally, a senior U.S. official was
quoted as saying on Friday amid regional tensions over North Korea's
nuclear and missile tests.
Kurt Campbell, the assistant secretary of state for East Asian and Pacific
Affairs, said Washington and Tokyo planned to hold regular talks on
boosting what is dubbed the "nuclear umbrella," starting on Saturday, the
Nikkei newspaper said.
