Abstract

The paper discusses the nuclear activity of the Democratic People‟s Republic of Korea (DPRK) and the challenges it poses to international peace and security. As a continuation to the previous extract in which the international relations perspectives were taken into consideration and explored, thereinafter the international law aspects will be introduced and scrutinized. The first part is concerned with the international law perspective of the paper presenting the international attempts towards nonproliferation and disarmament with details on the institutions, multilateral agreements, the disarmament fora and the concept of Nuclear Weapon Free Zones established to stand up against nuclear threat and advocate for global denuclearization. Then, the sanctions regime set up by the United Nations Security Council to control and discourage nuclear activities by the DPRK will be introduced with a specific focus on each sanction imposed after each illegally conducted nuclear activity. While the previous part of the paper aimed to suggest that despite threatening attitude, efforts are still made to normalize deteriorated diplomatic relations. This part supports the main argument of the study which entails that the current international law system is not suitable and wellstructured enough for enforcing regulations and compliance to reach full denuclearization.
