North Korea: nuclear weapons only in response

geneva - North Korea does not use nuclear weapons first, because the country is responsible and adheres to international agreements made on nuclear issues. This said a North Korean envoy to the UN in Geneva, So Se Pyong, reported Reuters on Monday. He only attended the congress in Pyongyang of the ruling party. The country will have to use nuclear weapons in response to a nuclear attack on North Korea, said the diplomat.

The Stalinist regime in Pyongyang is under more feared by the attempts to make nuclear weapons. The regime of the isolated country in 1985 signed the international treaty against the proliferation of nuclear weapons (NPT). But in 2003, North Korea turned back from the NPT.
