NORTH KOREA ARMS BREAKTHROUGH?

Just exactly what is North Korea promising?

The North "promised to drop all nuclear weapons and current nuclear programmes and to get back to the Non-Proliferation Treaty as soon as possible and to accept inspections" by the International Atomic Energy Agency, the statement said, quoted by the Associated Press.

Of course, the North might drop all of its nuclear weapons on the South and then embrace the Non-Proliferation Treaty.
