The United States urged North Korea, Syria and Iran to follow Libya's example in pledging to abandon its weapons of mass destruction programs and join the rest of the world in productive cooperation, a foreign news agency reported on Wednesday.

Secretary of State Colin Powell said Tripoli's decision had put the United States and its allies ‘on a bit of a roll’, and states still pursuing chemical, biological and nuclear weapons would be better off if they followed suit.

North Koreans are watching all of this, and realizing that others are getting smart, and it's time for them to get smart too, Powell said, in a radio interview. The same thing applied to Iran, the secretary of state pointed out, adding that Syria also needed to get out of the hole.
