North Korea has up to ten plutonium war charges in its nuclear arsenal. These data were given by former South Korean foreign minister and delegation head at the six-party talks on denuclearisation of the Korean Peninsula Lee Soo-hyuck in his book, published in Seoul.
The 59-year-old veteran of the South Korean diplomatic service noted, “North Korea has 8-10 war charges, made of plutonium”. It is supposed that North Korea “produced up to 35-42 kilos of arms-grade plutonium”. Lee Soo-hyuck noted that North Korean military specialists “are capable of manufacturing one nuclear charge out of four kilos of plutonium by improving technology of production”.

Nuclear Nightmare-North Korea(1/5) On May 25, 2009, North Korea announced that it had successfully conducted its second nuclear test, having expelled all international nuclear inspectors as a response to a tightening of sanctions by the UN Security Council which had punished NKs long-range ballistic missile test conducted in April.

NK has sold missiles to Iran and other Middle East neighbors, and a nuclear reactor to Syria.
