[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Dongguk Lee] Pohang City, Gyeongbuk, held the 'Pohang City Integrated Defense Council for the 2nd Quarter of This Year' on the 22nd to complete the integrated defense posture.

At the meeting, 22 members including Pohang Mayor and Chairman of the Pohang City Integrated Defense Council, Kangdeok Lee, and Im Seong-geun, Commander of the Pohang Specific Security Area, attended to discuss the operation plan of the city’s integrated defense council and matters related to regional defense by the 1st Marine Division.

The Integrated Defense Council is a body that reviews local security situations and deliberates on various issues for the smooth execution of integrated defense operations in case of an integrated defense situation, holding regular meetings quarterly.

This regular meeting is significant as it marks the resumption of face-to-face meetings after various meetings were temporarily suspended due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Mayor Kangdeok Lee emphasized, “The Yoon Seok-yeol administration is promoting policies with great interest in defense and security,” adding, “To this end, we must maintain a solid regional integrated defense posture based on a cooperative system among civilians, government, and military, and strive to support national policy implementation.”
