After the rumors of South Korea building tanks in eastern Europe, this move do be making sense. I wonder if NATO will ever expand to include Pacific partners?

Given it's called the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, I have my doubts.

However, there's certainly the possibility of a similar mutual defense pact emerging in the Pacific, which includes NATO nations (read: the United States and Canada).
