Iran starts up the nuclear program talks again, and North Korea has made the biggest move against its southern counterpart since the Korean War. South Korea is rethinking its defense strategies, and western leaders are meeting to talk about Iran. What is happening here?

This is quite a worrying matter for the UN, I would imagine.

Although I do think it's quite ingenious of Iran to use locally mined uranium for its nuclear program. I assume, as they're using uranium, we're talking nuclear fission here in this nuclear program of theirs

Don't even want to think about nuclear fusion/fission at the moment (or ever), as it's been way too long since I took Physical Science and Physics, haha. But this is a very serious and scary matter. Not that the UN would actually do anything but throw resolutions and weapons inspectors at them..
