“I have a very simple philosophy. If you have a man-made problem, then man can solve those man-made problems.”
Malaysian anti-nuclear activist and founding member of the Nobel Peace Prize-winning International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons (ICAN), Datuk Dr Ronald McCoy shares with AWANI Review.
North Korea’s missile launches and Donald Trump's Twitter tirades may seem benignly juvenile for now but this does not mean the threat of mutually-assured destruction in an all-out thermonuclear annihilation is not real.
The belligerence of the United States in antagonising Kim Jong-un is being blamed for an escalation of the temperature in this dangerous game of 'dare'.
McCoy calls the United States the culprit for holding naval exercises and making nuclear gestures that are interpreted by North Korea as a threat.
