Coreea de Nord declară „ireversibil” statutul său de ţară nucleară

North Korea has rejected calls for denuclearization from the IAEA, citing the expansion of nuclear alliances among the US, South Korea, and Japan as justification for its own nuclear arsenal. Kim Yo Jong, sister of leader Kim Jong Un, stated that North Korea's nuclear status is irreversible and essential for national security. The IAEA's director urged North Korea to reaffirm its commitment to the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, highlighting ongoing violations of UN Security Council resolutions. Additionally, North Korea's defense officials emphasized the need for a strong nuclear deterrent in response to perceived threats from hostile nations.
