Motives of North Korea ‘s Leader Baffle Americans and Allies (article)

Summary

I have a question. Can North Korea stop nuclear testing what if North Korea gets the respect that it's said that they want the best?

Last Sunday, North Korea’s underground nuclear test was done again and on Monday, its army fired ballistic missiles also.

Probably, many people didn't think that they’re done frequently. It's because it's dangerous and it's needed a lot of money.

However, those don't seem to be related, even people in North Koria are struggling.

Self-preservation, unclear narcissism and a deep desire to preserve the family business are said to be done the test.

Keeping nuclear weapons is engendering fear and loyalty in the country's populace for the Kim regime. This seems to be his politics.

Then it turns out that North Korea's nuclear technology is highly advancing, it’ll has the capability to directly hit the United States.  

According to the article, Mr. Kim wants American troops to withdraw from the peninsula and wants the United States not to station tactical nuclear weapons in South Korea. He hopes that North Korea is treated like Pakistan or India also.

Now, nine nation of the world still has nuclear weapons and Pakistan and India are included.

However, this is not only the problem for the countries which have nuclear weapons.
