Consensus Reached on DPRK's Nuclear
Adjust font size:

The three-nation team of international nuclear experts currently in the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) reached a consensus with the country's government on Friday on disablement of the Yongbyong nuclear facilities.

 

Chinese expert Chu Xuming told Xinhua that the team of international nuclear experts made a detailed plan on disabling the Yongbyong nuclear facilities after they returned to Pyongyang Thursday following an inspection trip to Yongbyong.

 

The plan will be presented to the next round of the six-party talks in Beijing, Chu added.

 

The team, led by a US State Department official, groups seven experts from the United States, one from China and one from Russia.

 

The team of experts held a whole day of in-depth discussions with their DPRK counterparts on the measures required to disable the nuclear facilities on Friday after they concluded a two-day visit to Yongbyong.

 

The experts visited the country at Pyongyang's invitation, which was described as a "significant step toward the denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula" by US Assistant Secretary of State Christopher Hill last week.

 

The team is scheduled to leave Pyongyang on Saturday.
