After H-bomb test, N. Korea wants to focus on economy

I believe, the World can slowly accept N Korea to focus on Economy and sign a Peace Treaty - if N Korea is willing to negotiate to give up its nuclear weapons like Iran.

N Korea must know that possessing and testing of nuclear devices can be a double-edged sword.

If nuclear accidents and mishap happen - the 1st country that get nuclear contamination will be N korea --- and everyone will suffer from cancer and die a slow and painful death.

Not wise for N Korea to keep threatening US - instead N Korea should express the willingness to negotiate for a Peace Treaty.

The longer the N Korea drag - the worst it may become for N Korea - not to seize the opportunity now.
