Experts Worry North Korea May Hide Missiles in Cargo Ships

Posted by Matt in February 8th, 2007

A recent report by the U.S. Congressâ€™ research unit Congressional Research Service (CRS) has raised questions about North Korea’s ability to transform cargo ships into missile launch pads. The CRS report said that North Korea has developed a submarine- or ship-mounted ballistic missile system with a range of at least 2,500 kilometers. The North has also transformed ordinary cargo ships to launch the missiles, the report said.

	Meltdown: The Inside Story of the North Korean Nuclear Crisi Mike Chinoy, Pacific Council on International Policy (Oct 1, 2008 at the University of Texas at Austin, LBJ School of Public Affairs) When George W. Bush took office in 2001, North Koreas nuclear program was frozen. Kim Jong-Il had signaled to the outgoing Clinton administration he was ready to negotiate an end to his missile program. Today, North Korea has become a full-fledged nuclear power, with enough fissile material to manufacture as many as ten more warheads. How did the United States fail to prevent a long-standing adversary like North Korea from acquiring nuclear weapons? Longtime CNN correspondent and North Korea expert Mike Chinoy addressed this issue and his new book Meltdown: The Inside Story of the North Korean Nuclear Crisis.
