The US has accentuated the positive, calling the agreement an important step forward. But, though it does represent progress from 2012, when popular opposition in South Korea to the idea of military cooperation with Japan caused a similar agreement to collapse, the latest effort is inefficient, at best.
美国强调该协议的积极面，称之为重要进步。但是，尽管该协议确实代表了2012年以来的进步——2012年韩国群众反对与日本进行军事合作的主意，导致类似协议崩溃——但充其量只能说是不完全的。
