Slovak President calls on North Korea to end WMD program

The world is currently facing one of the worst threats to international peace and security, as North Korea openly threatens the world with nuclear weapons, stated Slovak President Andrej Kiska in his speech on Tuesday at the 72nd session of the UN General Assembly in New York. The head of state added that such a serious disrespect to human life on the part of North Korea can't be tolerated. "I strongly call on the North Korean regime to terminate its development of weapons of mass destruction and return on the path of dialogue and peace-building in the Korean Peninsula," said Kiska in response to North Korean recent missile tests that have led to a significant escalation of tension within international relations. The Slovak president went on to say that another huge challenge which humankind will have to address in the very near future is climate change.
