Maho Uchida, senior computer science major. “North Korea is developing missiles and nuclear now. It is a menace to the safety of not only Japan but also many countries. However, nuclear causes radiation in North Korea when the country carries out a nuclear test. It means there is also the risk that North Korean citizen are also exposed to radiation. All Japanese already know how nuclear is dangerous because of the Fukushima nuclear disaster and atomic bomb during World War II. For both other countries and North Korean citizens, I think North Korea should stop the nuclear test and the missile development.”
