MAEI

The Ministry of Atomic Energy Industry was created in 2013 for the purpose of modernizing the DPRK’s atomic energy industry to increase the production of nuclear materials, improve their quality, and further develop an independent DPRK nuclear industry. As such, the MAEI is known to be a critical player in the DPRK’s development of nuclear weapons and is in charge of day-to-day operation of the country’s nuclear weapons program, and under it are other nuclear-related organizations. Under this ministry are a number of nuclear-related organizations and research centers, as well as two committees: an Isotope Application Committee and a Nuclear Energy Committee. The MAEI also directs a nuclear research center at Yongbyun, the site of the DPRK's known plutonium facilities. Furthermore, in the 2015 Panel of Experts (POE) report, the POE stated that Ri Je-son, a former director of the GBAE who was designated by the Committee established pursuant to resolution 1718 (2006) in 2009 for engagement in or support for nuclear related programs, was appointed as head of the MAEI on April 9, 2014.

a été créé en 2013 afin de moderniser cette filière et d'accroître la production de matières nucléaires, d'en améliorer la qualité et de doter le pays d'une industrie nucléaire nationale. Il joue un rôle capital dans la mise au point d'armes nucléaires en RPDC et est responsable de la gestion au quotidien du programme d'armes nucléaires du pays. De nombreux centres de recherche et organisations nucléaires en relèvent, ainsi que deux comités : le comité chargé des applications isotopiques et le comité de l'énergie nucléaire. Le MAEI dirige également un centre de recherche nucléaire situé à Yongbyun, où se trouvent aussi les installations de traitement de plutonium. En outre, selon le rapport de 2015 du groupe d'experts, Ri Je-son, un ancien directeur du General Bureau of Atomic Energy (GBAE Bureau général de l'énergie atomique) qui avait été désigné en 2009 par le Comité du Conseil de sécurité créé par la résolution 1718 (2006) pour sa participation ou son appui à des programmes relatifs à l'énergie nucléaire, a été nommé à la tête du MAEI le 09/04/2014.
