A senior United States envoy1 says he is hopeful progress will be made toward scrapping2 North Korea's nuclear arsenal3 during bilateral4 U.S.-North Korean talks over the weekend.  Lisa Schlein reports for VOA, the talks, which will take place in Geneva, will focus on normalizing relations as part of an international nuclear disarmament deal.

Christopher Hill speaks during a press briefing about a bilateral meeting with North Korean <a href=envoys5 in Geneva, Switzerland, 31 Aug. 2007" hspace="2" src="/upimg/allimg/070907/0928400.jpg" width="210" vspace="2" border="0" />
Christopher Hill speaks during a press briefing about a bilateral meeting with North Korean envoys in Geneva, Switzerland, 31 Aug 2007
The bilateral meeting is in preparation of the six-party talks that are to resume later this month.   The members include the North Korea and South Korea, China, Russia, the United States and Japan.

The chief U.S. negotiator, assistant secretary of state, Christopher Hill, says those talks are to figure out the next steps needed to disable North Korea's nuclear facilities.  He says the six countries also will seek to obtain a full declaration of all nuclear programs and materials possessed6 by North Korea. 

Hill notes that phase one of these nuclear talks resulted in North Korea shutting down its nuclear facilities in Yongbong.   He says phase two of the talks will be a further step toward nuclear disarmament. 

"We are hopeful that we can come up with an implementation7 arrangement for, the disablement and declaration of facilities," he said.  "That we could by the end of this year have accomplished8 this phase two.  And, then in the opening of '08, we would begin, what I hope would be the final stage, which is the abandonment of the fissile material, that is the nuclear material already produced. The abandonment of weapons in which the fissile material is."  

If this is achieved, Hill says this is likely to lead to a peace conference on the Korean Peninsula that would result in a genuine peace agreement.  The ultimate aim, he says, is to achieve a permanent security system in Northeast Asia. 

Hill says there is no question North Korea must do away with its nuclear weapons.

"These are programs that are not helping9 the DPRK," he added.  "In fact, they are driving the DPRK into a deeper sense of isolation10, which we are trying to reverse.  And, I hope other countries who have aspirations11 in this regard would understand that nuclear weapons are not a security solution and they certainly do not help anyone's future." 

During this weekend's talks, Hill says the two parties will discuss normalizing bilateral diplomatic relations and removing North Korea from the U.S. State Department list of nations that sponsor terrorism.
