North Korea declares nuclear status irreversible

Original: Senior N.K. diplomat says Pyongyang's nuclear status can never be reversed 'in any circumstances'

A senior North Korean diplomat has declared that Pyongyang's status as a nuclear power can never be reversed 'in any circumstances'. The statement rules out denuclearisation talks and signals that the country intends to keep its nuclear arsenal permanently. It comes amid continued deadlock with the United States and South Korea, and observers say it sharply reduces any prospects for renewed diplomacy.

Why now: North Korea's explicit rejection of denuclearisation renews concerns over arms control and regional security.
