Anthony J. Constantini, in his debut for COMPACT titled 'Let North Korea Have Nukes', argues that the United States should accept the reality that North Korea, under Kim Jong Un who can't be bullied, threatened, or sweet-talked, will not relinquish its nuclear weapons. Citing the failure of America's strategy to denuclearize Pyongyang, Constantini suggests a new approach where the U.S. would allow North Korea to keep its current stockpile in exchange for halting further production of nuclear bombs. This proposal, available to subscribers only, comes in the context of past Western actions, such as the ouster and murder of Gaddafi after he gave up his nuclear ambitions, which Constantini implies has justified North Korea's rationale to hold onto its nuclear arsenal.
As if we didn't have enough crises to worry about, here's another: There's growing concern that North Korea may be ready to create its own security nightmare. My latest: https://t.co/o8lVlLAdS2
Given the fate of Gaddafi, who gave up his nuclear ambitions only to be destroyed by the Western powers he surrendered to, Kim Jong Un isn’t going to give up North Korea’s nukes. It’s time for America and the West to accept that reality: https://t.co/e8x4cWEBkI https://t.co/gG0CdZgZ4Y
By enabling Gaddafi’s ouster and murder, the Western powers made clear to Kim Jong Un that acquiring nukes was entirely rational. Now they need to accept the reality that North Korea isn’t going to give them up, argues @Jay_Conz: https://t.co/e8x4cWEBkI
America's North Korea policy isn't working. The Pyongyang regime already has nukes, and no amount of threats or cajoling will compel it to give them up. Anthony Constantini suggests accepting their current stockpile in exchange for no further bombs. https://t.co/l7xteRMUJS
America's North Korea strategy is failing to denuclearize Pyongyang. So Jay Constantini (@Jay_Conz) in his COMPACT debut offers a bold but actually sensible proposal: Let North Korea Have Nukes. (For subscribers only.) https://t.co/l7xteRMUJS
