U.S. Says No Agreement Reached In North Korea Talks
January 19, 2007
January 19, 2007 -- U.S. envoy Christopher Hill today said six-party negotiations on North Korea's nuclear program will resume soon, but denied that an agreement had been reached in bilateral talks this week.
North Korean negotiator Kim Kye Gwan said "a certain agreement" was reached during discussions in Berlin, without giving details, but Hill said he didn't know to what Kim was referring.
Hill earlier called the Berlin talks "very useful."
Hill is now in South Korea to raise support for renewed six-country talks to persuade the North to give up its nuclear program.
