“I was able to persuade them to let me shoot in areas that were beyond the volcano itself. Beyond the joint scientific program between Cambridge University and North Korean scientists.

“The fact is that one significant way the Iranians have a posture different from the North Koreans, the North Koreans basically are saying we have a nuclear program. We are seeking weapons. We have produced weapons. We're proud of the fact that we have weapons.” WayDifferentFactsProudWeaponsProgramSeekingNuclearSignificantNorth KoreaKoreanPostureNorth Korean Author:Zbigniew Brzezinski
“North Korea and China have proposed what sounds like a pretty sensible option that North Korea should end its development of nuclear weapons, the US should stop carrying out hostile military maneuvers on the North Korean border. The US immediately rejected it. Modernization program is a very clear example of how security doesn't matter. There is no gain in security but massive overkill of the adversary's deterrent capacity. The only consequence of it is to elicit the likelihood of a preemptive attack. And a preemptive attack leads to a nuclear winter world.” WorldSecurityMilitaryConsequenceProgramWinterSensibleNuclear WeaponsRejectedNorth KoreaKoreanNorth Korean Author:Noam Chomsky
“North Korea continues to advance its nuclear technology and will soon reach weaponization. Regarding its intercontinental ballistic missiles, it is continuously making progress. So currently, it is urgent for us to freeze North Korea's program so they will stop additional provocations and stop advancement of its technologies. I believe during my upcoming summit meeting in the U.S. I will be able to discuss a two-phased approach to the North Korean nuclear issue - the first being a freeze and the second being complete dismantlement.” BelieveI BelieveTechnologyProgressProgramMeetingsNorth KoreaKoreanNorth Korean Author:Moon Jae-in
“The message that we must send to North Korea is twofold: If the North Korean regime believes that it can defend and protect itself through nuclear and missile programs, that is a misjudgment. But if North Korea gives up its nuclear program, we will help it secure and develop itself. We must consistently send these two messages.” GivingBelieveHelpingProtectGiving UpProgramConsistentlyNorth KoreaKoreanNorth Korean Author:Moon Jae-in
“The steady progress made by North Korea on its nuclear and missile programs is deeply concerning. The US cannot solve this problem alone. However, in order to take steps that could fundamentally affect the North Korean leadership and its decision-making, we need to work even more closely with our allies in the region who feel this threat acutely. I would urge China, in particular, to intensify its leadership role in helping to solve this crisis.” HelpingProblemProgressProgramCrisisThreatSteadyNorth KoreaKoreanNorth Korean Author:Sam Nunn
