The South China Post reported that Chinese scientists fear that a mountain in North Korea under which the last five bombs detonated as tests, may collapse crumbling into a crater. They fear that the radiation underground would then leak across region.
Russian President Vladimir Putin has warned that the escalating crisis concerning North Korea’s weapons program is placing the world at risk of developing into a “global catastrophe” with massive casualties. Putin has UNREALISTICALLY said that the only way to resolve the crisis was through diplomacy. For that to be even a possibility, it requires talking.

He is most likely NOT interested in starting a nuclear war for he cannot be so stupid to believe he would win.

So with all the saber rattling, Kim is not stupid and realizes that the USA cannot launch a first strike.
Now, what is the goal of Kim?
