The United States congratulated South Korea Monday ahead of an anniversary of the Asian ally's independence from Japanese colonial rule.
Secretary of State Rex Tillerson issued a congratulatory message to mark Liberation Day, Aug. 15, the day Korea won independence from Japan's 1910-45 colonization.
"We reaffirm the ironclad alliance between the United States and the Republic of Korea and honor our strong and historic people-to-people ties," he said. "This holiday also marks the bond our nations share in our support for democratic values, as we stand together to advance peace and security."
