That's the point that is never spoken about in complaints about NK's "belligerence". And that's how every country that did away with an WMD program that wasn't in the pocket of the West eventually became the target of Western aggression. Libya, Syria, Iraq all had some sort of nuclear weapons programs. And all were eventually attacked by the West because nuclear backed sovereignty is the only sovereignty respected by the West.
- elefanten 5y agoOh, is it different elsewhere? Pray tell, where is sovereignty respected in its own right?
- sudosysgen 5y agoThat is completely besides the point. It's a historical fact that countries with enimity to the west were much more willing to give up WMD programs before the downfall of those that did than nowadays.
- x86_64Ubuntu 5y agoI'm not sure what the point of this question is. I stated that "nuclear sovereignty is the only sovereignty respected by the West" and then you ask "where is sovereignty respected in its own right". I'm not sure how that follows.
