Pyongyang to return to nuclear discussion
UNITED States President Barack Obama's envoy on North Korea said yesterday that officials in Pyongyang agreed on the need to resume nuclear disarmament talks but did not say when they would return to the negotiating table.
Stephen Bosworth sounded a hopeful note, calling his three-day visit to North Korea "very useful" and citing a "common understanding" with his North Korean counterparts on the importance of the denuclearization process.
The six-nation talks have been stalled for more than a year, during which time North Korea has conducted a nuclear test and ballistic missile test-launches, and claimed it restarted its atomic program.
"It is certainly our hope, based on these discussions in Pyongyang, that the six-party talks can resume expeditiously and that we can get back to the important work of denuclearization," Bosworth told a Seoul news conference after returning from Pyongyang.
The veteran diplomat's talks in North Korea were the first high-level contact between Washington and Pyongyang since Obama took office in January pledging to reach out to former adversaries.
Six nations - the two Koreas, the US, Russia, Japan and China - had been negotiating since 2003 on a step-by-step process to dismantle North Korea's nuclear program.
