Report: North Korea claims it is enriching uranium at new plant

A U.S. Department team arrived in North Korea of report from a U.S. scientist group that reported North Korea of having a high Uranium facility. The facility is believed to have 2,000 centrifuges and believed to be a factor for nuclear power, however, North Korea said its not for Military power. Although, Stanford scientist Siegfried Hecker states that the high uranium levels could easily be converted to make a HEU bomb fuel. Not to mention, the adding of this facility violates the UN Security Council resolutions on North Korean's nuclear power program. A resolution to this problem was not given in the sense that North Korea is stating it's not a threat to the world, however, the world feels threatened and will go about this problem with extreme caution.
