By 2020, North Korea could possess as many as 100 nuclear warheads.
That's the startling conclusion of a January 2019 report from the RAND Corporation, a California think tank with close ties to the U.S. military.
"North Korean provocations and threats have created an unstable environment on the Korean Peninsula," RAND's report explains. "North Korea's ongoing development of nuclear weapons and ballistic missiles increases the possibility of their use against regional states, furthering instability across the region and beyond, thus affecting vital U.S. interests."
