| Summary/Abstract |
ONE OF THE THORNIEST ISSUES in today's international situation is the creation in North Korea, or the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK), of nuclear weapons. The world community believes it undermines international stability and security and urges that the DPRK scrap its nuclear program. As for Pyongyang, it insists on its sovereign right to have this deterrent. The farther the North goes along this road, the stronger is the pressure upon it and the worse the situation surrounding this state. As a result, there is a danger that the process may not only spin out of control but also spark a serious conflict on the Korean Peninsula.
