Kim Jong-un Revealed Korea Has Developed Hydrogen Bomb

Kim Jong-un made subtle remarks that his country, North Korea has been keeping a hydrogen bomb while he is visiting a historical military site, the Phyongchon Revolutionary Site in the capital Pyongyang on Thursday.

In his statement broadcasted by the state media, KCNA, the North Korea dictator talked about the achievements of his late grandfather Kim II Sung particularly the country's reputation of producing nuclear weapons saying that it is "ready to detonate a self-reliant A-bomb and H-bomb to reliably defend its sovereignty and the dignity of the nation," BBC reported.

The dictator's claim, however, drew skepticisms with senior defense and intelligence officials of the country saying there is no evidence that the life-threatening weapon has been made, NBC News said.

The White House also reacted Kim Jong-un's claim urging their intelligence to seriously investigate such claims.

John Nilsson-Wright, Head of the Asia Programme at Chatham House, said that Kim Jong-un's revelation is 'an attention grabbing effort' from North Korea to continue its autonomy and being banned from participating in international trade.

China which is North Korea's close ally, on the other hand, has been very cautious as to believe or dismiss North Korea's claim with Chinese Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Huan Chunying saying that the situation is 'very delicate, complex and fragile.'

"We hope all concerned will make effort that contributes to peace and stability," the spokeswoman told reporters.

The Hydrogen bomb is said to have stronger nuclear capabilities than the nuclear bomb that wreck havoc in Hiroshima and Nagasaki during World War II.

Meanwhile, a top UN official in the name of U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights Zeid Ra'ad Al Hussein, urged International Criminal Court to investigate the country for its alleged 'gross human rights violations.'

"The abduction of foreign nationals, the enforced disappearances, the trafficking and the continued movement of refugees and asylum-seekers makes this point clearly. These, in addition to a litany of other gross human rights violations, have still not been halted or reversed by the Government of the DPRK (Democratic People's Republic of Korea)," Zeid said in a report from CNN.
