North Korea has tested an impressively powerful new rocket engine – one that would provide enough force for it to, at the very least, hit targets in the middle of the pacific such as Guam. North Korean sources claim that this engine is for peaceful purposes, and that a moon landing is planned. American intelligence agencies have found evidence that North Korea and Iran are cooperating in missile development, a fact that worries many US officials.
Key Takeaways:
- Inside the United States’ intelligence agencies, though, there is considerable skepticism that North Korea is truly eager to plant a flag on the lunar landscape.
- The Obama administration has responded to North Korea’s nuclear and missile tests with gradually escalating sanctions, mostly through the United Nations.
- Few threats as urgent as the dramatic escalation of North Korea’s nuclear and missile programs are likely to confront Hillary Clinton or Donald J. Trump as president.
