South Korea's new president, Yoon Suk Yeol, has stated that his country may consider building tactical nuclear weapons if the North Korean nuclear threat continues to grow. However, this is not yet an official policy position. South Korea is a signatory of the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty, which bans the country from seeking nuclear weapons. Experts are skeptical that South Korea will go nuclear due to the potential consequences, including damaging the NPT, triggering sanctions, and provoking China and North Korea.
