Fresh sabre-rattling from the DPRK, today, as they threaten to build a nuclear arsenal:

The North's "intention to build up a nuclear deterrent force is not aimed to threaten and blackmail others but reduce conventional weapons under a long-term plan and channel manpower resources and funds into economic construction and the betterment of people's living," the North's official news agency said.

Riiiiight. Because that whole nuclear-arms-race-with-the-U.S. thing worked so well for the Soviets.
