"North Korea, however, cited the U.S. military performance in Iraq as offering "the lesson that there should be only a strong physical deterrent force to protect the sovereignty of the country and the nation."

As for U.S. emphasis on the need for verification, the statement said that "inspection and disarmament forced by the U.S. upon an independent state" would violate "its sovereignty and its right to existence" and would provide a rationale "to justify and legalize aggression and war."

The United States, it said, should submit to inspection of its own "military capability" first.

The seemingly harsh North Korean position raised the question here of why the North had wanted talks that appeared so far to have provided a forum only for rehashing positions of both sides.
