Summary
The DPRK is unique in that it has voluntarily suggested to work on the denuclearization still disputing the exact meaning of the denuclearization. Since the political regime of the DPRK shall remain stable, the entire denuclearization processes are different from the case after the collapse of the Soviet Union. Even though the denuclearization of the DPRK is a difficult issue, it is the task that the global society as well as the North East Asian one should work together.
