If this story was true,NK and Iran will have nuclear deterrent power.Former chief of staff of Russian Strategic Missile Troops, Colonel-General Viktor Yesin, believes that North Korea currently has all the necessary infrastructure for the production of a nuclear explosive device, while Iran will be able to produce a nuclear weapon within the next few years.
“Pyongyang already said last year that it had a nuclear weapon. I think this statement was not groundless: the DPRK (Democratic Party of the Republic of North Korea) has developed the necessary infrastructure for the creation of nuclear weapons, and the North Korean nuclear facilities have not been monitored by the International Atomic Energy Agency for more than three years,” Yesin told Interfax news agency.
However, he noted that “unlike India and Pakistan, Pyongyang has so far not carried out a nuclear test”.
“Therefore I would refrain from saying unequivocally that the DPRK has a nuclear weapon,” he said.
Yesin suggested that “the North Koreans have managed to assemble a nuclear explosive device but not nuclear munitions”.
But another state with nuclear ambitions, Iran, would only be able to accomplish its project in several years’ time, Yesin believes.
“Iran has not created the full-fledged infrastructure needed for the production of nuclear weapons. But in two or three years Tehran will accomplish its nuclear project and create an A-bomb if the world community does not stop it. I am convinced that the Iranian leadership has this intention and won’t give it up voluntarily,” Yesin said.
Don,t you think that is ploblem?
