Seoul claims North Korea has refined technology to miniaturize nuclear weapons so they can be mounted on ballistic missiles that threaten the U.S. mainland.
The claim comes in the 2014 Defense White Paper the Defense Ministry here published on Tuesday.
This was the first time the ministry has made the claim in such an emphatic form, although it admitted there are a lot of provisos.
The 2012 Defense White Paper merely mentioned the North's two nuclear tests in 2006 and 2009, but did not offer any evaluation of the technology to produce viable warheads for missiles.
This year's white paper used the term "North Korea's nuclear weapons" for the first time, since there has long been a polite fiction that the North is not officially a nuclear-armed state.
"Seoul and Washington have reached consensus that the North already reached a significant level of technology to miniaturize nuclear weapons through three nuclear tests," a ministry official said. "But there is no intelligence report that the North has already succeeded in miniaturizing nuclear weapons."
The white paper also says that the maximum range of the North's Taepodong-2 missiles has increased from 6,700 km to 10,000 km. With a range of 6,700 km, a North Korean missile could reach Alaska; and with a range of 10,000 km, it could hit the west coast of the U.S. mainland.
