Rumsfeld was on ABB Board During Nuclear Deal with
North Korea
by Jacob Greber

The Swiss-based ABB on Friday told swissinfo that Rumsfeld was involved with the company in early 2000, when it
netted a $200 million (SFr270million) contract with Pyongyang.

The ABB contract was to deliver equipment and services for two nuclear power stations at Kumho, on North Korea’s
east coast.

Rumsfeld – who is one of the Bush administration’s most strident “hardliners” on North Korea – was a member of
ABB’s board between 1990 and February 2001, when he left to take up his current post.

Wolfram Eberhardt, a spokesman for ABB, told swissinfo that Rumsfeld “was at nearly all the board meetings”
during his decade-long involvement with the company.
