Speaking on CNBC, Carnegie's Evan Feigenbaum stated that despite North Korea's usual rhetoric and dramatic comments, there are intrinsic threats going forward. The North Koreans have invested for quite a period of time now in long range missiles that aim to threaten the continental United States. Likewise, the proliferation threat could grow due to North Korea’s long term relationship with many rogue actors.
