A diplomat, who demanded anonymity because the resolution was not yet public domain, said that the text tried to balance U.S. concerns that North Korea commit to again honoring the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty and less specific Chinese language that also wanted to focus on rewards to the North.

At their last meeting this month, delegates from North Korea, the United States, 皇冠体育app, Russia, South Korea and Japan reached a landmark accord in which North Korea pledged to abandon all its nuclear programs in exchange for economic aid and security assurances.

In return, it won recognition of its desire to keep its civilian nuclear program and a pledge to discuss its demand for a light-water nuclear reactor 鈥� after it meets international safeguards and rejoins the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty.

But just hours later, Pyongyang said it will not dismantle its nuclear facilities until it gets light-water reactors from the United States, casting a shadow on the agreement. Washington has rejected that demand.
