North Korea Claims To Have Successfully Developed The Technology To Miniaturized Nuclear Weapons

CNN: North Korea: We have the ability to miniaturize nuclear weapons

(CNN)North Korea said Wednesday that it has the ability to miniaturize nuclear weapons, a key step toward building nuclear missiles.

Analysts and U.S. officials have said previously that they suspected Kim Jong Un's regime was capable of the technical feat, which is needed to fit a nuclear device on the tip of a ballistic missile.

"We have had the capability of miniaturizing nuclear warheads, as well as producing multiform weapons, for some time," the North Korean military said in a statement carried by the state-run Korean Central News Agency.

WNU Editor: I am very skeptical of these North Korean claims.
