North Korea: Stop the Production of Nuclear Weapons
The free world agreed that no one will make, produce or fire a nuclear weapon. The nuclear weapons age, and ability was years ago,. Still countries still have them because they were before the treaty that says that no country's can build them. So North Korea is breaking the policy with a little nudge of the US president beside the North Korean president is also a little crazy too. The US should investigate North Korea, and stop them from developing nuclear weapons, and other high explosive rockets.

The history of North Korea. North Korea has been more on the fence with us since trump got into office. Choe Sang-Hun mentions “North Korea conducted a series of nuclear and ballistic-missile tests since 2006” (Sang-Hun). This means they have been doing this for a will. “Effort to develop a small, and sophisticated nuclear warheads,” Choe Sang-Hun states (Sang-Hun). They want to make a small, but tough warhead for a long time. We have dealt with them before in war, and if it comes down to that again, so be it. …show more content…

We already went to war with North Korea. This time we should talk with the North, and come to agreement. Nicholas Eberstadt mentioned that, “we need more effective defenses against the DPRK's means of destruction while simultaneously weakening the regime's capabilities for both conventional, and strategic offense” (Eberstadt). We need to look out for the nuclear weapons, and missiles that they are building. Nicholas Eberstadt stated, “We should but pyongyang back on the state sponsors of terrorism list- it never should have been removed in 08”(Eberstadt). This is a problem for many countries that don't have a little, or not a lot of defences. North Korea's leader, and leading staff for the country is the most consequences and South Korea, and her allies need to watch the north,and deal with them if

  • NK Essay

    971 Words  | 2 Pages

    Italo Calvino was an Italian author who wrote a wide variety of stories, such as The Nonexistent Knight and many more. He was a master of postmodern literature which can be seen throughout all his stories, including The Nonexistent Knight. This novella follows Agilulf, a “perfect” yet nonexistent knight, and his acquaintances on quests to seek out their true identity and reveals to us that “where other people exist genuine individuality is never possible.” Through Calvino’s perspective, the perfect individual cannot exist in a world where there is greed, gluttony, lust, and other inimical qualities around him, which ultimately led Agilulf to his doom. Characters in the story cannot achieve that “perfect individuality” that everyone desires, simply because perfection is unattainable, which is depicted through Calvino’s use of satire and postmodern elements. In The Nonexistent Knight, Italo Calvino creates a parodic satire on medieval romances where genuine individuality is not possible, making us question the verisimilitude of the characters in the story through the use of different types of satire, character development, and postmodern themes.

  • Communist China and North Korea: Shared History and Ideology

    2005 Words  | 5 Pages

    Today, China and North Korea are two extremely powerful communist countries. However, communism was not always present. In fact, communism was a new political theory proposed and published on February 21st of 1848 by Karl Marx in his famous “Communist Manifesto.” In 1949, approximately one hundred years after the Communist Manifesto was written, Mao Zedong came into power and henceforth, adopted a form of communism. It was after World War II and the Chinese Civil War, that the Chinese Communists were able to overthrow Chiang Kai Shek and the Chinese Nationalist Party; hence, this new government swore to form a “brand new” China, which modeled and resembled closely to Marxism-Leninism. North Korea and China’s geography, mutual history, and ideology proved to make them similar in many aspects in terms of reforms and revolutions; however, it was not until death of Mao Zedong and the rise of Deng Xiao Ping in the mid-1970s that drew the distinct line between North Korea and China communism.

  • Socialism In North Korea Essay

    1622 Words  | 4 Pages

    Just how bad are pure socialist economies? North Korea is the most well known socialist nation. The government came to control all economic decisions in the country. Most of the country’s resources were sent to the military. The country also used its resources on developing a nuclear program. The military growth used up all of the country’s necessary resources. In the late 90s and early 2000s, the majority of the country was suffering from hunger and malnutrition because food was scarce. Millions ended up dead, and those who survived only did because of the aid from other countries (like South Korea and other capitalist countries). The failure to provide food foe the country was due to their flawed economy. North Korea began to produce less

    This response will focus on the key issue of fragmentation. In his book Korea’s Twentieth-Century Odyssey, Michael E. Robinson wrote “Multiple interest groups resided within the bureaucracy and even divided the royal house” (p. 16). Arguably, Korea’s sovereignty was lost in large part, due to the lack of unity among different groups and faction. It was clear from the readings that some Korean individuals and groups prioritized their self-interests above their own country’s benefit. Nowhere was this most evident then the issue of national security.

  • North Korean Human Rights Violation Essay

    1940 Words  | 4 Pages

    Little is known about North Korea except for news stories concerning international terrorism, nuclear arms threats, and prison camps. From space, North Korea is shrouded in darkness like the history that surrounds this country. This is due to the nation's strict closed-country policy: not many outsiders have visited there and not many North Koreans have traveled to the outside world. While little action can be taken to help the North Korean people, action taken by the United Nations is crucial. Recently, United Nations human rights investigators issued a horrific report documenting massive human rights violations in North Korea. The United Nations feels these crimes of humanity should be brought to the International Criminal Court. UN members work to "promote and encourage respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms for all without distinction as to race, sex, language, or religion” (Youth For Human Rights). North Korea unlike any other country in the world cannot be reported on fully because of regulations on people entering its boundaries.

  • A Constructivist View of North Korean Nuclear Proliferation

    2007 Words  | 5 Pages

    In reality, North Korea to this day does not pose a significant military threat, even with limited nuclear capabilities. A constructivist perspective is more able to explain US policy in this instance, because it does not focus on sheer militaristic power. It takes into consideration the state's identity, which drives their interests. The identities of the US and North Korea and the interactions between them drove both nations to the point of acquiring and deterring nuclear use. This conflict began developing in 1994 when North Korea announced its intentions to withdraw from the NPT.

    Relations between the United States and North Korea have been unstable since the second world war and with each passing decade the relations have become more tense. The U.S has never have formal international relations with North Korea , however the conflict has caused much controversy in U.S foreign policy. North Korea has been the receiver of millions of dollars in U.S aid and the target of many U.S sanctions.

  • The North Korean Nuclear Threat

    1201 Words  | 3 Pages

    Since its origin in 1948, North Korea has been isolated and heavily armed, with hostile relations with South Korea and Western countries. It has developed a capability to produce short- and medium-range missiles, chemical weapons, and possibly biological and nuclear weapons. In December 2002, Pyongyang lifted the freeze on its plutonium-based nuclear weapons program and expelled IAEA inspectors who had been monitoring the freeze under the Agreed Framework of October 1994. As the Bush administration was arguing its case at the United Nations for disarming Iraq, the world has been hit with alarming news of a more menacing threat: North Korea has an advanced nuclear weapons program that, U.S. officials believe, has already produced one or two nuclear bombs. As the most recent standoff with North Korea over nuclear missile-testing approaches the decompression point, the United States needs to own up to a central truth: The region of Northeast Asia will never be fully secure until the communist dictatorship of North Korea passes from the scene. After threatening to test a new, long-range missile, Pyongyang says it is willing to negotiate with "the hostile nations" opposing it. But whether the North will actually forgo its test launch is anyone's guess. North Korea first became embroiled with nuclear politics during the Korean War. Although nuclear weapons were never used in Korea, American political leaders and military commanders threatened to use nuclear weapons to end the Korean War on terms favorable to the United States. In 1958, the United States deployed nuclear weapons to South Korea for the first time, and the weapons remained there until President George Bush ordered their withdrawal in 1991. North Korean government stateme...

  • George W. Bush's Six Party Talks

    974 Words  | 2 Pages

    In 2005, a comment was made by the Six Party Talks in which North Korea decided to abandon its nuclear weapons program, accept IAEA inspections, and rejoin the Non Proliferation Treaty while maintaining the right to peaceful nuclear energy (2). The other countries decided to provide energy assistance and discuss giving North Korea light water reactors. In July 2006, the development was stopped when North Korea was irritated by the U.S. targeting its financial assets and pace of the light water reactor project (2). In October 2006, North Korea performed its first nuclear test and the U.S. answered by requiring North Korea to end testing its nuclear weapons and to abandon its missile program. A spokesperson from North Korea’s government stated that the test was “entirely attributable to United States threats, sanctions and pressure.” (2). The spokesperson also accused the Bush administration of replying to North Korea’s “patient and sincere efforts with sanctions and blockades” (2). In July 2007, North Korea closed its nuclear facilities at Yongbyon in return for fuel oil and separation from the U.S list of state sponsors of terrorism

  • North and South Korea

    728 Words  | 2 Pages

    John F. Kennedy once noted: “Mankind must put an end to war before war puts an end to mankind.” Rising tensions between two opposing forces can lead to intense conflict. Provided that China and Japan have struggles of their own, North and South Korea have had struggles since 1950 (“Korean War”, 1) and continue to hold their conflicts, which seem to be increasing. South Korea, a democratic nation, is the exact opposite of North Korea; a hyper-nationalist nation - seemingly creating a “personality clash” between the two. Much like World War I, there may be, sometime in the future, a full blown war because of North Korea’s hyper-nationalist secretive rule. North Korea’s isolation, internal struggles, and Kim Jong-un’s intention of proving leadership will increase tensions between North and South Korea and may result in an outbreak of war in the near future.
