Representatives from six parties to the Korean nuclear talks will head for Yongbyon in
North Korea from Nov. 27 to 29, Foreign Ministry spokesperson Qin
Gang announced on Monday.
Qin said the six parties, China, North and South Korea, the US,
Russia and Japan, have agreed to jointly send representatives there
to learn about the implementation of nuclear facilities
disablement.
North Korea shut down Yongbyon nuclear reactor in July. It
agreed to disable all existing nuclear facilities and to provide a
complete and correct declaration of all its nuclear programs by the
end of this year, according to a joint document released on Oct. 3
when the second phase of the sixth round of six-party talks ended
in Beijing.
The document said the disabling of the five megawatt
Experimental Reactor, the Reprocessing Plant (Radiochemical
Laboratory) and the Nuclear Fuel Rod Fabrication Facility in
Yongbyon would be completed by Dec. 31.
