Officials of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) continued talks with the visiting U.S. team of nuclear specialists Friday, a day after Pyongyang turned over to the United States files related to its plutonium program.
Sung Kim, head of the five-member U.S. team, gave no comments on the received documents before entering the DPRK Foreign Ministry where the meeting was to be held.
U.S. State Department spokesman Sean McCormack said officials would take time to review the documents to determine whether the DPRK's declaration about its plutonium program is satisfactory, reported the New York Times Friday.
It is believed that the U.S. experts team's trip would set the stage for a deal between the U.S. and the DPRK on Pyongyang's nuclear program.
The six-nation talks on dismantling DPRK's nuclear programs stalled as Pyongyang failed to meet the Dec. 31 deadline to provide a complete declaration of its nuclear programs and materials.
This was the second trip of Kim's team to Pyongyang in less than a month. They were scheduled to leave Pyongyang on Saturday.
