Envoys hold talks over Korean nuclear claim

Top nuclear envoys from South Korea and the US held talks today on a strategy to bring North Korea back to disarmament negotiations, a day after the North claimed to have succeeded in experimental uranium enrichment.

US special envoy on North Korea, Stephen Bosworth, and South Korean envoy Wi Sung-lac made no comments after their meeting. Bosworth later met with South Korea’s unification minister in charge of relations with North Korea.
