N. Korea says US trying to deploy nuclear weapons on Korean Peninsula
North Korea Ambassador to the United Nations Kim Song said that the US is trying to deploy nuclear weapons on the Korean Peninsula by sending a nuclear missile submarine to South Korea, RIA Novosti reports
Kim Song said, “Most seriously, the US is once again trying to deploy nuclear weapons on the Korean Peninsula, sending a nuclear submarine to South Korea for the first time in forty years, while resorting to highly provocative espionage activities.”
Earlier, the North Korean Central News Agency reported that South Korea and the United States are going to discuss the use of nuclear weapons against the DPRK. It is also noted that in April the United States prepared the Washington Declaration, envisaging the creation of a nuclear planning group to develop options for the use of weapons against North Korea. South Korea secured a US promise to promptly deploy ‘the entire force of the alliance’, including nuclear weapons, in the event of a nuclear attack by the DPRK.
