This confirms what many of us have suspected for a long time. North Korea has conducted five nuclear weapons tests. Their highest estimated yield was in September, 2016. It was around 30 kilotons which is twice the yield of the Hiroshima bomb. When you think about these nuclear weapons being used to trigger an EMP bomb, then there is big concern. With better miniaturization and strong rockets for delivery, Iran could well be at the point where Obama’s nuclear treaty is worthless.
I suspect that China may be giving technology to North Korea which is also going to Iran.
Access to Iran’s oil is a strong incentive.
Access to Irans oil is a strong incentive.
That could be an interesting argument. It might explain why there is an indication that China is suddenly willing to share its rocket technology with N. Korea. The design of SLBM missiles N. Koreans are testing lately is suspiciously similar to old Chinese rocket design, according to some experts.
