North Korea does not have an official nuclear doctrine. But this new research reveals how the country envisages using nuclear weapons in a conflict. The key term to summarise North Korean doctrinal thinking is "Preempting decapitation" – threatening to use nuclear weapons first if it detects the preparation of a preventive attack, whether conventional or nuclear, to decapitate the regime. North Korea seeks to instil doubts among those who think that it would not respond to strikes against its nuclear and missile sites out of a fear of escalation and, ultimately, regime collapse. Europe’s contribution should start with making a cool assessment of North Korea’s strategic thinking and understanding the regime’s logic of pre-emption. It should step up its efforts to combat sanctions evasion in countries where it has influence. Europe has some limited diplomatic space to promote crisis management talks. Track 2 discussions in Europe could explore how the five main parties around North Korea would respond to various crisis scenarios. This would help foster a more unified response by the international community to North Korean proliferation activities.
