National security adviser Donald Trump wants North Korea to send all of its nuclear weapons to a US laboratory in Tennessee. This is to ensure Kim Jong-un follows up on his promise to dismantle the program.
John Bolton said North Korea's nuclear weapons must be dismantled and shipped to the Oak Ridge National Laboratory in Tennessee if Kim Jong-in wants to get sanctioned.
"I think implementing this decision means getting rid of all the nuclear weapons, unpacking them, taking them to Oak Ridge," Bolton said.
"This means getting rid of uranium enrichment and plutonium processing capabilities. This means overcoming ballistic missile problems. Many things like that, "he added as quoted from Russia Today, Tuesday (15/05/2018).
North Korea's media said the country would openly dismantle its nuclear test site around May 23-25, with reporters from Pyongyang and the United States being invited to cover the event.
Bolton did not mention whether he expected nuclear weapons to eventually be stored at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory or the Y-12 National Security Complex, which is usually in charge of nuclear weapons production.
