The three-nation team of international nuclear experts currently in the
Democratic People's Republic of Korea reached a consensus with the country's
government yesterday 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
yesterday 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 today.
