The world nuclear protection will be ,2200 weapons in Russian and for allies .
There will also only be 2200 wepons in USA and for allies via strategic offense reduction treaty.
This treaty has to renewed by new treaty which Obama-Medvedev may discuss this week.
Since the heights of nuclear arsenals with 10,000s weapon in USA and Russia,this is big safety for world since dangerous years of cold war of 1960s.
The reducing of arsenals by over 50 times its size in 1960s,has been done by Russia and USA.
North korea entry into nuclear weapon state status is made by their government. 6 parties talk with Russia was aimed at making a nuclear free koreas ,like many other nuclear weapons free zones of world.
Where does future koreas politics and nuclear weapons politics go from here?
These will depend on the all 6 party talks nations especially China and Russia.
The world is seeking a reduction of all nuclear weapons in nuclear arms nations .
The nuclear energy race and nuclear arms race which began in 1940s has brought new changes to humanity,people must do more for creation of safer world,with lowest number of nuclear weapons in all armed states.
If world returns to 1930s level of zero nuke arms,it will be the best conditions for all the world's nations.
The nuclear power plants will increase in use,since we still have not found safer forms of energy production,which is more effective for the present.
With future breakthroughs in energy production sciences,there is a lot hope for new discoveries in very safe form of electric energy production.
There are many nations which are having very safe form of electricity energy production.
It depends on these advanced nations to do more,to proliferate their expertise in these fields of safer electricity production.

What choice does N. Korea have?

What choice does N.Korea have ?
North korea should develop their nation economically first with China/Russia or others.
When north korea is rich and has a annual 1000 billion dollar economy,it can have many choices,which comes from income earned.
South korea was as poor as north,but they worked with from scratch to develop their economy via Hyundai,Samsung,Hynix,LG, and via many other things.
All these corporations are very up todate and are very productive . These companies are involved in big way for sucess of India,China and many other nations.
North korea must get rich like south korea via development from scratch via China/Russia or others help. Germans has done in former East Germany.
2 koreas should make cars,ships,PCs and many other things like that, via their own endeavour with China/Russia/others.
If there is an economic resource that can make north korea rich,they should go for it.
The journey will be from scratch,it will get easier when the north gets richer.
Like the south, with help of corporations ,north should build up the economic product export skills .
There also no need to unite as one country,like in germany. 2 koreas should remain separate until a time when north's economy is stronger and is able to unite into 1 korea.
Making nukes,is not the best way for north korea,but I can understand why the want nukes. Looks like north korea, already are able to do nuclear weapons and nuclear reactors.
This is just a small part of north korea's sucess,there are many fields to sucess. There is a need for north korea to go higher up ,the ladder of sucess among the nations of the world.
It is not easy way out of this mess for all parties and 2 koreas. The 6 parties need to reunite in talks. The 5 party talk isolated from north is not a good way.
One thing for sure,is all parties need to dialogue a way out of the mess.
The choices can be a lot for north korea but they must seek economy development first and export like south, to contribute more to world prosperity and peace.
They north koreans should emulate the north korean football team, and become more a part of world's success.
Entry in world cup2010,is a good way to start again,and the correct way to sucess in the field of football sport for north korea.
The Rise of China with 8000 billion annual economy,can make things happen for north korea.
North korea can stay the same or it can do other things. The choice is up to North korean leaders,who may also want to find a new path to sucess.
It is like being in the world cup process and north must keep up the effort of this process going in many other fields beside football. This has been done by south korea very well,just role model economically ,the south ways.
If they wish to stay same,then north korea will be the same,without much changes or the same choices.
If north want more choices,then it must build 1000 billion dollars annual economy with China and rest of world.
Any way this is just my comments here,which has nothing much to do with actual reality and future in 2 koreas.
Actual reality of koreas,with be the actual change mover.

japan shouldn't feel so high and mighty in comparison to n korea. after all, it has the same nepotistic system of government, just with more competition

bah, the Japanese system is head and shoulders above anything that NK can bring to the table. Of couse that not saying much, a starving population with the leaders living the life of Riley is really over the top. I expect that NK will stick with their feudal system for as long as they can; the Ill regime has no compassion for the people. There is no comparison to Japan.
But why is NK saying that the US is formulating a nuclear war? With Obama in office I would think that such a thing is not under consideration. I'm starting to think that the dear little leader is just nucking futz. Maybe he wants an excuse to launch an attack? What the heck is this guy trying to do? It seems to be going a bit beyond a simple temper tantrum this time. No way to appease a lunatic. Hope he kicks off soon before he starts a real war out of desparation.

The following two facts are significant:
1) The aim of the six-party talks, which started six years ago, was to bring to the dismantling of the North-Korean nuclear plan in return for creating a constellation of mutual security, co-existence and multilateral cooperation between countries with different regimes. North Korea acted sincerely to fulfill this aim. America and the Asian regimes attached to America did not.
2) The UNSC abandoned the principles of equal justice and uniform criteria, in deciding about maritime siege and economic stifling of North Korea. No other country that possesses nuclear weapons (the list includes America, Russia, China, Britain, France, India, Pakistan and another country) was ever punished for possessing or using them.
