CBC news reported that North Korea has said it might still proceed with testing a new type of nuclear device after U.S. President Barack Obama’s visit to Seoul, however the country has been tight lipped as to when the tests might take place.
According to the publication:
Many experts — and the South Korean government — had suspected the North would conduct its fourth nuclear test during Obama’s visit. But the U.S. president has come and gone and the North is now sending signals that could be taken to mean it is ready to test at any time, or may hold off indefinitely.
While in Seoul, Obama commented:
North Korea already is the most isolated country in the world by far. Its people suffer terribly because of the decisions its leaders have made. And we are not going to find a magic bullet that solves this problem overnight.
