Interesting developments with North Korea

This would be great if the Norks plan to keep their end of the deal. From Reuters:
N.Korea agrees to disable nuclear program in 2007
North Korea agreed in weekend talks with the United States to fully account for and disable its nuclear programs by the end of this year, negotiators said on Sunday.

"We had very good, very substantive talks," U.S. Assistant Secretary of State Chris Hill told reporters. "One thing that we agreed on is that (North Korea) will provide a full declaration of all of their nuclear programs and will disable their nuclear programs by the end of this year, 2007."

North Korea's top nuclear envoy said separately his delegation was pleased with the outcome of the talks, held to hasten the end of Pyongyang's nuclear programme, a target agreed to in principle in 2005 in exchange for diplomatic and economic benefits.
Emphasis mine -- I wonder what we offered them. I know that they have had severe crop failures this year so food is a priority. Maybe this will be an opening into further relations with them. Another failed Communist state down the tubes... Posted by DaveH at September 3, 2007 1:53 PM
