North Korea calls nukes 'the nation's life' at pep rally
2013-04-01
[Straits Times] One of North Korea's top decision-making bodies is setting guidelines that call nuclear weapons "the nation's life" that won't be traded even for "billions of dollars."

The statement on Sunday came after a plenary meeting of the central committee of the ruling Workers' Party attended by leader Kim Pudge Jong-un
...the hereditary potentate of North Korea...
and other officials.

It says nuclear weapons aren't "goods for getting U.S. dollars" or a "political bargaining chip."

Outside analysts have said Pyongyang raises worries over its nuclear ambitions to spur nuclear-disarmament-for-aid talks.
