According to the US official report, North Korea is preparing for another nuclear test in coming days. It has appeared that the Pyongyang administration is in the process to have another atomic test.
An unidentified US defense official was quoted on ABC News that we think they have put everything in place to conduct a test without any notice or warning.
However, the US as well as the other member nations of the 6-party talks is taking care of the each development regarding the atomic development in the North Korea.
On the other hand, the intelligence agencies is unconvincing and said nothing open on the question whether North Korea will actually go for another test or not.
But, the statement made by the US defense official said that the preparations are as similar as the steps were taken by North Korea at the time of previous nuclear test in last October.
Two other senior defense officials said that recent intelligence suggested that the North Koreans appear to be ready to test a nuclear weapon again. However, the intelligence community is divided over whether another test is likely.
An intelligence official said that if it would happen it would be a surprise to me. On the other hand, another official said that North Korea might go for another nuclear test sometime over the next two or three months.
