North Korea Audio Analysis: Assessing the Nuclear Test --- Scott Lucas with the BBC
I spoke with BBC WM on Tuesday afternoon, trying to get beyond the immediate reactions to assess the significance of the North Korean nuclear test.
Take-away line: "While the test is a notable political move --- primarily to establish the domestic authority of leader Kim Jong Un --- it does not represent an imminent military threat."
The discussion begins at the 48:37 mark.
