Loading ...N. Korea Says It Will Conduct Nuke Test
North Korea said Tuesday that it will conduct a nuclear test to bolster its self-defense capability amid what it calls increasing U.S. hostility toward the communist regime.
The U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, John Bolton, said that the U.S. would bring up North Korea’s statement for discussion Tuesday morning in a regular meeting of the U.N. Security Council.
The North said Tuesday that its ultimate goal is “to settle hostile relations between the DPRK and the U.S. and to remove the very source of all nuclear threats from the Korean Peninsula and its vicinity,” accusing the U.S. of posing a nuclear threat in the region.
