Pyongyang : The three-nation team of international nuclear experts currently in North Korea have reached a consensus with the country’s government on the 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 a two-day inspection trip to Yongbyong.
The plan will be presented to the next round of the six-party talks in Beijing, Chu said Friday.
The team, led by a US State Department official, consists of seven experts from the US, one from China and one from Russia.
The team of experts Friday held a whole day of in-depth discussions with their North Korean counterparts on the measures required to disable the nuclear facilities.
The experts visited the country at Pyongyang’s invitation, which was described as a “significant step toward the denuclearisation of the Korean Peninsula” by US Assistant Secretary of State Christopher Hill last week.
