No breakthrough as North Korean nuclear talks end

CBC || November 13, 2005

Talks aimed at convincing North Korea to stop developing nuclear weapons adjourned without success Friday, with no date set for negotiations to resume.

The six-party talks had gone through four rounds, with little progress made.

The latest negotiations in Beijing stalled as a result of two factors, U.S. negotiators said:

North Korea wants sanctions lifted on eight companies the United States has accused of participating in the proliferation of weapons.

The U.S. is refusing to reward North Korea with aid if the country cancels its nuclear program without completely dismantling the work done so far.

"We don't want to get into a situation where they stop the programs – in short, freeze the programs – and then expect us to compensate them for a freeze," U.S. assistant secretary of state Christopher Hill told reporters after the meetings ended.

In addition to North Korea and the United States, the talks participants are China, South Korea, Japan and Russia.
