Are the Bushies feeding us a pack of lies on North Korea, just as they did on Iraq. North Korea Will Abandon Nuclear Arms for Security, AP Says Oct. 3 (Bloomberg) -- North Korea will give up its nuclear weapons program if the U.S. guarantees it won't attack the communist nation, the Associated Press said citing Maurice Strong, a United Nations envoy. Strong made the comment after meeting North Korean Vice Foreign Minister Choe Su Hon yesterday at the United Nations in New York, AP reported. The North Korean minister ``made it very clear that his government is committed to abandoning its nuclear weapons program,'' AP cited Strong as saying. ``Their primary concern is their security,'' said Strong, who visited North Korea's capital, Pyongyang, in March. North Korea signaled yesterday it may be using plutonium processed from spent nuclear fuel roads to make weapons, Agence France-Presse said. The official Korean Central News Agency said the government is using the plutonium ``in the direction of increasing its nuclear deterrent force,'' the AFP report said. The U.S. has no evidence supporting North Korea's statement, U.S. Secretary of State Colin Powell said yesterday in Washington. ``This is the third time they have told us they just finished reprocessing the rods,'' Powell said. ``We have no evidence to confirm that.'' North Korea wants security guarantees from the U.S. before it abandons its nuclear arms program, while the U.S. wants the program ended first.
