An unfortunate, surprisingly unsurprising piece of news…..You all remember the sense of surrealism following North Korea’s commitment to de-nuclearise right?
Well, it seems that commitment may be heavily questioned as a strangely detailed report published by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), the UN’s Atomic watchdog, implies that North Korea has continued to develop its nuclear weapons programme, this being consistent with the observed enrichment of uranium and construction at NK’s main nuclear site of Nyongbyon.
Talks between the US and North Korea have now stalled…and although the South have continued to improve relationships steadily with their northerly counterparts, one must now start to question if what we saw just a few weeks ago was in fact, too good to be true.
