The inhabitants of Aomori were preparing for rest when the authorities sounded the alarm signal that should be collected in solid concrete buildings in case they were affected by a nuclear missile from North Korea. And even when the missile sank in the Pacific, the terrified population only regained calm a day later.
The investigations that have followed reveal something truly chilling for any nation neighboring Kim Jong-Un’s homeland. The North Korean army carries out these nuclear tests frequently by launching missiles into space. But as a result of confronting the need to guarantee the ability of the rocket to reach the objective for which it was programmed, they are carrying out tests against terrestrial targets. And like all evidence in some cases the orbital trajectory can be corrupted, when this happens the rocket goes in unpredictable directions as was the case of the rocket that terrified the inhabitants of Aomori.
And of course, the incident was followed by strong statements by the United States, Japan and the European Union without, to date, having been able to take action in the UN against North Korea for opposing Russia and China to a public debate on the issue in the Council. of security.
What’s next then??? Well, Mr. Kim Jong-Un will continue to test his rockets and expose his neighbors to a nuclear holocaust.
Meanwhile, Mr. Putin clearly tells us that if the West does not accept Russia’s annexation of half of the Ukraine, he too can join Kim Jong-Un in nuclear pyrotechnics.
This situation presents the world with one of the greatest existential challenges since the Second World War. At that time the only nuclear power was the United States and the use of the atomic bomb was surrounded by a chain of restrictions and actions aimed at preventing the use of nuclear weapons. Only when it became clear that the alternative of occupying Japan would not be possible without the immolation of hundreds of thousands of Americans and that of dropping the atomic bomb on a relatively uninhabited island in the Nippon archipelago would not cause Japan to surrender was the atomic bomb dropped. .
Today the nuclear weapon is in the hands of many nations that ride between barbarism and civilization. As such they have no regard for human rights or respect for international institutions. Consequently, all of humanity is hostage to the leaders of these nations that lack systems of checks and balances that guarantee the responsible use of nuclear weapons. We are out in the open on a planet where the personal desires of two leaders will determine if civilization continues. Because the nations architects of the international order have declined to intervene in preventing a nuclear disaster induced by them.
