Trump nominates Admiral Harry Harris for Ambassador to South Korea

Posting comes just weeks before the proposed summit between Trump and Kim Jong Un

Harris is the head of U.S. Pacific Command and was formally set to be the ambassador to Australia before the decision was overturned at the end of April.
