N Korea denies attempts to get Pakistani uranium technologies

IRNA - Islamic Republic News Agency

Beijing, Feb 28, Itar-Tass/ACSNA/IRNA -- North Korea`s official 
representative at the six-partite talks on the Korean nuclear problem,
Kim Kye Gwan, has denied the allegations that his country obtained 
access to Pakistani technologies of uranium enrichment. 
There is no cooperation between the Democratic People`s Republic 
of Korea and Pakistan in that area, he said. 
Kim Kye Gwan admitted, however, that the sales of North Korean 
missiles to Pakistan had indeed taken place -- to earn hard currency, 
he said. 
He indicated that North Korea could not afford giving up a program
of the peaceful use of atomic energy, and blamed the US with 
unwillingness to solve the issue through dialogue. 
Kim Kye Gwan warned the US that one should hardly count on a 
success of the next round of the six-partite talks, due in the middle 
of the year in Beijing, if the US Administration abides by the same 
tactics.
