Many experts say North Korea has both chemical and biological weapons programs which range from the use of agents such as VX and Sarin to Anthrax and Botulin. The extent to which these agents have been weaponized is unknown as no internationally regulated inspections are conducted. The U.S. Department of Defense says that North Korea has stockpiles of chemical weapons and the capability to produce certain agents in mass quantities. North Korea has signed the Biological Toxin Weapons Convention (BTWC), which is a multilateral effort to ban the production of biological and chemical weapons. Yet this treaty doesn’t require systematic inspections. North Korea’s ambiguous statement in October 2002 about possessing weapons more powerful than nuclear weapons has led experts to interpret this as a declaration of possessing biological/chemical weapons.
