Russian expert on nuclear weapons Vladimir Khrustalev told Sputnik that North Korea has reached a “point of no return” in the nuclear field and is likely to possess all necessary technology for building nuclear weapons.
Friday’s nuclear test carried out by North Korea for the fifth time has once again shown that despite tough Western sanctions the country has been able to still build nuclear weapons. According to Khrustalev, the recent nuclear test could mean significant progress in the development of North Korea’s nuclear program.
“There is definitely a very noticeable progress,” the expert told Sputnik. “What we can say quite confidently is that the North Koreans are moving towards improving their nuclear capacity. In addition, they have now tested a standard missile warhead — at least, there is a corresponding official statement about that. And, based on the developments that they have shown in recent years, as well as the general logic, everything seems to be quite consistent with the developments common for other nuclear powers in the past,” Khrustalev stated.
