North Korea was considered too poor, authoritarian and vulnerable to succeed with its nuclear and missile programs. And yet Pyongyang has acquired advanced nuclear weapons capabilities — and, at the end of November, tested an intercontinental ballistic missile. Why has North Korea succeeded when other countries such as Iraq and Libya have failed? Three factors are central to North Korea’s success. This […]
Russian scientists may have provided North Korea with the designs for its newest missiles back in the 1990s. The US could have prevented the transfer of these designs had it granted US investors a waiver to embark upon a joint venture with Russia to turn old submarine-launched missiles into space boosters. The UN’s new sanctions […]
In a New Year’s Day address, North Korean Supreme Leader Kim Jong Un delivered characteristically aggressive rhetoric toward the United States, but in a diplomatic shift, seemed to open the door for the possibility of engaging South Korea in a dialogue. The entire mainland of the US is within the range of our nuclear weapons […]
The South Korean government seized a Hong Kong-registered ship last month for allegedly supplying oil to the North in breach of United Nations sanctions. The Koreans, armed with U.S. satellite photos said the ship Lighthouse Winmore transferred 600 tons of refined oil to a North Korean ship. The UN Security Council resolution bans any ship-to-ship […]
Russian President Vladimir Putin delivered his annual Christmas and New Year’s addresses to world leaders over the weekend.

A nuclear scientist from North Korea recently committed suicide as he was deported from China back to North Korea, where he faced the severe punishment that awaits all defectors — to include the three-generation punishment system that not only involves him, but any spouses, children, siblings and parents too. Hyun Cheol Huh is one of many […]
New reports out of Asia are now indicating that a North Korean nuclear scientist killed himself last month after a failed attempt at defecting through neighboring China. Local news outlets have reported the man’s name as Hyun Cheol Huh, though the North Korean government has yet to acknowledge the incident, nor have they confirmed the man’s […]
A North Korean defector was recently found with anthrax antibodies in his blood which has caused quite the stir, particularly among South Koreans and U.S. forces in South Korea. There has been some confusion as to what this could mean. Why would someone have anthrax antibodies in his bloodstream? How is that indicative of some kind […]
Last month, North Korea tested their latest and most advanced ballistic missile platform to date, the Hwasong-15, and although its reentry vehicle appeared to fail, the platform itself proved capable of covering enough distance to place cities on America’s eastern seaboard within its potential range. For the first time since the Cold War, Americans on […]
The US has sanctioned two officials it calls ‘key leaders’ of North Korea’s nuclear weapons program. The sanctions block the men from any property or transactions from American citizens. The move follows UN sanctions and is part of President Donald Trump administration’s ‘maximum pressure campaign.’ WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. Treasury Department issued sanctions Tuesday […]
The soldiers defecting from North Korea to the south have been interesting subjects of medical study. The defector who was shot several times was found to have tapeworms up to 11 inches long in his intestines. Fleeing soldiers or civilians are often malnourished and have been denied a lot of basic healthcare. However, the most […]
According to reports out of South Korea, one of the North Korean soldiers who defected to South Korea in recent months has anthrax antibodies in his system.
