Nuclear North Korea

Discover the alarming realities of North Korea's nuclear ambitions in Nuclear North Korea, a compelling exploration by the University of Exeter Press. Set to be published in 2025, this hardback edition spans 264 pages and delves into the motivations behind North Korea's nuclear development. Contrary to popular belief, the regime is not merely focused on its security; instead, Kim Jong-un's regime aims to use these weapons to threaten and potentially annex South Korea. The book highlights the stark belief that the United States cannot adequately protect South Korea with its nuclear umbrella, given the capabilities of North Korea's intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs) to target American cities. This thought-provoking analysis also discusses the strategic necessity for the US to maintain its nuclear submarine presence near the Korean Peninsula. Perfect for readers interested in geopolitics and international relations, Nuclear North Korea is an essential addition to your collection.
