| Croc tears: Pakistan Deeply Concerned By North Korean Nuclear Test Threat |
| 2006-10-06 |
| Pakistan, whose disgraced chief nuclear expert has admitted selling secrets to North Korea, said Wednesday that Pyongyang's threat to test an atomic bomb was of "deep concern". The Pakistani foreign ministry also urged restraint from North Korea after the Stalinist state said Tuesday it would be compelled to carry out a nuclear weapons test due to threats and sanctions from the United States. "The announcement by the Democratic People's Republic of North Korea regarding its intention to conduct a nuclear weapons test is a matter of deep concern for Pakistan," the foreign ministry said in a statement. "We urge the Democratic People's Republic of North Korea to desist from introducing nuclear weapons in the Korean peninsula which would be highly destabilising for the region." The statement said Pyongyang "must exercise restraint and return to the six party talks." |

| #8 Wonder if this is a CYA attempt, and Kahn short-changed the Norks. Wonder what would happen if the test is either a spectacular failure, or if something totally unexpected happens, like a premature explosion. Either way, Kahn gets the purple shaft. |

| #5 Actually, from a sales point of view Pakistan should be the proud supplier of North Korea's appearently successful nuclear purchases. |

| #4 Don't forget about the uranium enrichment technology sold by the Pakistanis to North Korea. Pakistan->NK: Nuclear bomb designs and U-235 enrichment. NK->Pakistan: Nuclear capable ballistic missiles. |

| #2 Posturing or trying to send a message of behaving responsibly? If they are serious, why would they care, other than their efforts have borne bad fruit and they want to distance themselves from it? |
