North Korea demands end to sanctions at Beijing talks

Posted: 11 February 2010 0447 hrs

SEOUL: North Korea on Wednesday repeated demands for sanctions to be lifted before it returns to nuclear disarmament talks, resisting appeals from its ally China to resume dialogue, a news report said.

Pyongyang's nuclear negotiators were holding a second day of talks in Beijing amid international efforts to kick-start the stalled negotiations, South Korea's Yonhap news agency reported from the Chinese capital.

North Korea restated its stance that it would not come back to the six-party forum as long as sanctions are in force, Yonhap quoted a diplomatic source as saying.

It urged China, as a permanent UN Security Council member, to play an active role in lifting the UN sanctions, the source said.

The negotiators also reportedly sought Beijing's backing for their demand that the United States agree to start talks about a permanent peace treaty before the nuclear forum resumes.

China stressed North Korea should first return to the dialogue table and ease its tough conditions, the source was quoted as saying.

For here it is pretty darned cold.
Woke up to 38 degrees and 15 mph winds.. Not going to get a lot of sympathy for that but we aren’t use to it here in S.E. Florida.
Still able to call the sister in law in North N.J and tell her I’m in the Jacuzzi and ask how things are there. At which time she will tell me to go to hell.
