S.Korea’s Yoon says N.Korea has nothing

South Korean President Yoon Suk-yeol said on Tuesday that North Korea has nothing to gain from nuclear weapons, as the isolated country threatened to beef up its capability to attack its southern neighbour.
Yoon told reporters, “North Korea is consistently developing and upgrading its nuclear weapons and posing nuclear threats to not only our Republic of Korea but the world,” referring to South Korea by its official name.
“I believe it has nothing to gain from nuclear weapons.”
On Monday, North Korea’s state media KCNA said leader Kim Jong Un had guided nuclear tactical exercises targeting South Korea over the past two weeks in protest over recent joint naval drills by South Korean and U.S. forces involving an aircraft carrier.
A recent flurry of missile tests was part of those exercises, designed to simulate showering the South with mock nuclear warheads, KCNA said.
