North Korea nuclear test will be ready "soon"


North Korea has almost completed preparations for a third nuclear test and may lead them "soon". He told Reuters a source of high quality which has close relations with Pyongyang and Beijing. "Soon. Preparations are almost complete", the source responded to the question if and when North Korea is planning to conduct a nuclear test. North Korea, last week, said he was ready to respond to the condemnation of the international community failed rocket launch this month, raising the possibility that it goes ahead with a third nuclear test despite UN sanctions. Many analysts expect that North Korea will for the first time try a nuclear device using highly enriched uranium, something it was long suspected of developing but which it only publicly admitted to about two years ago. Defence experts say that by successfully enriching uranium, to make bombs of the type dropped on Hiroshima nearly 70 years ago, the North would be able to significantly build it up stocks of weapons-grade nuclear material. It 's the first time that a source with knowledge of the intentions of Pyongyang confirms that the test will take place.
