Chemical weapons in North Korea are managed by the Nuclear-Chemical Defense Bureau, which sits within the regime’s army and oversees seven chemical weapon brigades that handle chemical attacks, decontamination and protection.

North Korea is elevating chemical weapons to serve as strategic weapons alongside nuclear weapons and developing them as battlefield weapons.

Ukrainian troops have successfully targeted a North Korean Type 75 rocket launcher used by Russian forces on the Kupiansk front.

This week, federal prosecutors charged four North Korean nationals with scheming to get hired by a U.S. company as remote workers and then steal nearly $1 million in cryptocurrency. It’s a relatively new North Korean threat: operatives using fake IDs and credentials to infiltrate American businesses.

The Trump administration should embrace a North Korea strategy that aims to contain escalation, not keep a white-knuckled grip on a failed policy.
