Over 1,000 nuclear weapons deployed in south Korea - that is, more than one nuclear weapon per 100 square kilometres, with a density four times higher than that of NATO and a total explosive capacity of 13,000 kilotons - are enough to kill 160 million persons. Already modern facilities for carrying nuclear weapons have been deployed and special nuclear stores have been built there. What is dangerous is that an operational command system has been established for the use of nuclear weapons at any moment and rehearsals for nuclear war are being stepped up.
