Get THE DENUCLEARIZATION OF NORTH KOREA

At the low end, experts estimate that North Korea has assembled 40 to 50 nuclear warheads, the fewest among the nine nations with nuclear weapons. However, one estimate, from a 2021 study by the RAND Corp. and Asan Institute, put the number as high as 116.

Joint Declaration of South and North Korea on the Denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula. The Joint Declaration was a treaty in which South and North Korea agreed not to possess, produce, or use nuclear weapons, and prohibited uranium enrichment and plutonium reprocessing.

In April of the same year, the North and South signed the Joint Declaration of the Denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula, which barred the parties from developing or acquiring nuclear weapons and limited them to using nuclear energy for peaceful purposes only.

The Hwasong-15 could travel an estimated 8,100 miles and reach the U.S. within a half-hour. Pyongyang is roughly 7,500 miles from Florida, with the West Coast being much closer. In recent years, Kim has pledged to develop an ICBM that could reach 15,000 kilometers, or about 9,320 miles, on a normal trajectory.

In June 1994, the US considered using Operation Plan 5027 (OPLAN 5027), the war plan that was to be used in case of a North Korean attack. This was due to the fear that North Korea would view the recent buildup of US troops and as well as evacuations as a sign of an attack and thus invade South Korea.

It is widely believed that a visit to Pyongyang by Pakistani Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto in December 1993 was the critical first step in an accelerating pattern of cooperation between Islamabad and Pyongyang. Bhutto reportedly returned home with design details for a North Korean Rodong missile.

North Korea has a military nuclear weapons program and, as of June 2023, is estimated to have an arsenal of approximately 30 nuclear weapons and sufficient production of fissile material for six to seven nuclear weapons per year. North Korea has also stockpiled a significant quantity of chemical and biological weapons.

Last September, the North revealed what it claimed was its first submarine capable of launching nuclear weapons. Since March 2023, it has also claimed tests of its Haeil system - unmanned, underwater nuclear-armed drones. Haeil means "tsunami" in Korean.
