N. Korea taken off U.S. ‘terror list’

SINGAPORE: The Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK) has expressed willingness to “resume disablement” of the nuclear facilities at Yongbyon under a new “package” on “verification.”
In terms of the “package,” the U.S. rescinded its own classification of North Korea as a “state-sponsor of terrorism.” And, in the “agreement” with the U.S. on the removal of the ‘terrorism’ tag, North Korea announced measures designed to help its dialogue-partners “verify” its “nuclear declaration.”
