FILE - In this March 25, 2014 file photo, U.S. President Barack Obama, center, watches South Korean President Park Geun-hye, left, and Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, right, move to their seats at the opposite ends of the table to start their trilateral meeting shortly after they sat together with Obama to speak to the press at the U.S. Ambassador's Residence in the Hague, Netherlands. The U.S. has 50,000 troops in Japan and about 28,500 deployed in South Korea, where it just concluded joint U.S.-South Korean exercises. But Tokyo and Seoul remain at odds over a separate territorial dispute and lingering Korean resentment of Japanese aggression before and during World War II.
