North Korea's nuclear weapons development and threat to the United States

North Korea Political Position Regarding United States

Threatening for U.S. government

This assignment demonstrates the position of politics of North Korea regarding United States. North Korea developed third nuclear technology that brought an impact on United States. This assignment discussed the threats given by North Korea to United States. This assignment also puts light on the implications of technology on North Korea regarding United States.

During the period of the cold war, North Korea had become a main problem for the foreign policy of United States. United States and North Korea have never had the political relations with each other. North Korea has become a serious threat for United States because North Korea has introduced an advanced nuclear technology; and has become a more powerful nuclear power. The new nuclear device has a high range of strike against U.S. And lately established technology is beyond the ability of the North Koreans. U.S. takes an interest in North Korea's political policies includes human rights and political securities.

Centralization is the main principle of the political system of North Korea. The government of North Korea provides all the possible solutions regarding the human rights. The WPK has been established in 1948, as well as under the working party of Korea WPK, North Korea can also be defined as a "dictatorship of people's negotiation" because the constitution intimately oversees the lives of the people. In the past decades, from Clinton to Bush administration was not ready to negotiate with democratic policies of north Korea but at the time of Obama administration, he developed a strategy named as" strategic patience," according to which Pyongyang will commit to take steps toward denuclearization and will modify the relations with Seoul to return to the six party talks[footnoteRef:2].

Discussion

Threatening for U.S. government

The new nuclear device has become a significant threat for the United States because it can strike the whole U.S. At the larger pace. After UN endorsement, the test of the third nuclear device has been taking place in February under the government of their new leader Jim Kun-un. Pyongyang has stated that the explosion of this nuclear device is not like the last two nuclear bombs and that nuclear device is considered to be the warning for the U.S. It has also become threaten for the U.S. constitution that the size of the lately nuclear device is subsequently diminutive and can be easily built-in at the apex of the missile[footnoteRef:3].

The nuclear agency of North Korea has stated that they will acquire the austere action against the U.S. constitution with the use of their nuclear power if the U.S. will reveal the opposition behavior. The abilities of making the nuclear bombs and missiles of North Korea pose the main threat for international constituencies.

The United States have taken this threat seriously and have spent $1 billion to increase the number of interceptors at their perimeter. The U.S. also demonstrates the possible actions by increasing the number of military provocation against the nuclear threat. By analyzing it has been analyzed that North Korea has become a weapons stock because of which it has become a nuclear threat for U.S., Japan and South Korea. The U.S. constitution shows the confidence that the missile defense system in Alaska can rebuff any attack of North Korean (ICBM) intercontinental ballistic missile[footnoteRef:4]. [4: Windrem, R. (2013) North Korea threat of nuclear attack predictable but worrisome. NBC News.]

The new UN sanctions can become a threat for North Korea to continue the development of ballistic long array missiles. North Korea can face some issues in the continuing development of nuclear missile because the 2094 resolution isolates the North Korea and have ordered the North Korea to pay increasing cost for becoming part of the international community[footnoteRef:5]. U.S. And Japan became a threat for the North Korea that they adhere concurrently and have stated that North Korea must have to stop the establishment of nuclear missiles. They have planned to enhance the security level for avoiding the threats given by the North Korea. It must be possible that if, because of peninsula denuclearize, the threat given by North Korea become unreasonable. The vice president of U.S. Kerry visit China and Japan for congregate the plans in opposition to North Korea and they thrash out all the matter in support of each other and their conference might become a main peril for North Korea leader and they also stated that if Jim would exploit this nuclear technology then it will be his prevalent mistake. Furthermore, president Obama stated that North Korea can never become an atomic power and they do not have the abilities to build such large extent missiles[footnoteRef:6].

As the whole world knows that the United States is one of the strongest country, so after getting threats from North Korea, Us became aware of these threats, and they decided to communicate with those countries, who also receive threats from North Korea, like south Korea and Japan but China is also ready to stand with U.S., one of the foremost acquaintance of North Korea and have decided to meet their goals concurrently. One of the threats for North Korea is that the ambassador of United States stated the entire world amalgamates with us, and they committed us to de-nuclearize the Korean peninsula and Korea should have to comply with the international obligations[footnoteRef:7]. [7: Akaha, T. (2013) "The Future of North Korea" Routledge. ]

Later than the establishment of new-fangled nuclear missile and after poses threaten from North Korea to United Sates, the United Nation sanction passed the notice to North Korea which is interrelated to their black business for instance criminal activities and also declare their financial transactions. The numbers of 15 numbers of Security Council were in favor of United States. Kim Sook, ambassador of South Korea stated that the over efficiency of North Korea to destroy the United States, Japan and South Korea will lead them to their self-destruction. North Korea receives the threat from South Korea and U.S. that if Pyongyang attacks then they strike back to North Korea and their targets would be their top most leadership[footnoteRef:8].

Implications

North Korea has developed a new fissile missile falsified of uranium and plutonium which was manufactured in December. They had a primary test of that missile on February and the troop of North Korean nuclear agency was assuring that the nuclear test would not be of an extensive range capacity, but afterwards they recognize that they have prepare an innovative nuclear technology of high range power and can annihilate the three major states such as United States, Japan and south Korea. Some of the implications are described below;

Proliferation to the states

Us representatives stated that North Korea have to develop the further nuclear artillery within the red-line to all states. For instance, after the China's nuclear test in 1964, the United States share their nuclear powers with and technologies with India but after that sharing United States have their own thousands of nuclear arsenal and up till after the establishment, these weapons are nonproliferation according to the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty[footnoteRef:10]. [10: Ibid. ]

In 2002, the CIA stated that North Korean agency provide WMD technology practices to other recipients either of other states or non-actor states. CIA also reports that North Korea nuclear agency just provides the ballistic fissile material, components or expertise of missiles not provide their nuclear artillery. North Korea willingly sells their nuclear armaments or fissile substance to other states including United States. In 1988, the Unites States adds the name of North Korea in the list of terrorism sponsors because according to the U.S. reports North Korea have sell their weapons to the most of the terrorist groups in 2000. Moreover, in 2000, Unites States and North Korea have signed a statement that the selling of their artillery to the terrorist huddle would diminish the harmony and serene of the whole nation. As well as, it will become a threat for international security[footnoteRef:11]. By viewing the history of North Korea, they were involved in selling fissile material an were involved in black business like smuggling shows that the old leader Jim Jong-Il openly deals with the terrorist groups because of which North Korea signed an agreement in 2001 related to the financing of terrorism.

Impact on other proliferators

While the North Korean nuclear artillery capabilities persuade other states in the constituency by performing their nuclear test. In addition, this nuclear would become a lesson for other states that can also build the equivalent capabilities to demonstrate themselves within the region. The response of a nuclear test can resolve so many consequences regarding international norms[footnoteRef:12]. [12: Ibid. ]

Conclusion

In the above research, we put the light on the relationship between North Korea and United States. And we conclude that North Korea poses threats to United States after developing their new and innovative atomic technology which is made up of fissile missile and is made by uranium and plutonium. They developed the third atomic device, the first two atomic missiles were failed to proceed, and they were of short-range, but afterward under the rule of Jim UN, theory run the test of third atomic device and get succeed that time. Then they pose threats to three countries which include South Korea, Japan and United States. As we know U.S. is the top most leading country cannot bear that threats and decided to denuclearize the threats on the peninsula at North Korea. Chine, one of the best allies of North Korea also stands with united stated to arrange the meeting for denuclearizing the North Korea's new innovative nuclear device which can cause harm for them also and also for other regions. Moreover, UN sanctions passes the reports to North Korea, which shows their financial transactions related to their black business.
