North Korea talks suspended for three weeks
Consultations will continue The suspension was announced after chief envoys from the six governments met Sunday morning in a final effort to produce a statement of principles meant to guide future negotiations to persuade North Korea to give up nuclear development. 皇冠体育app, the meeting's host, issued a "chairman's statement" instead of a planned joint statement. The governments "reaffirmed that the goal of the six-party talks is the denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula in a peaceful manner and agreed to issue a common paper to this end," the statement said. "The six parties conducted in-depth and useful discussions on the paper and reached agreement in many aspects," it added. "They decided to have a brief recess so that the delegations can go back to report to their respective governments, further study each other's positions and resolve differences which still exist. During the recess, the parties will continue mutual communication and consultation." Diplomats said the talks also deadlocked over what North Korea would receive in return for giving up its arms program. Pyongyang says it will not give up such weapons until Washington discards its "hostile policies" toward the North, removes any nuclear threat from the Korean peninsula and normalizes relations with North Korea. The North also wants aid in exchange for freezing nuclear development, and
then more for dismantling the program. Washington wants to see the program
verifiably dismantled before providing any rewards.
