   Pyongyang, October 5 (KCNA) -- The sixth session of the second phase of the six-party talks was held in Beijing from Sept. 27 to 30.
    The session reviewed the implementation of February 13 agreement, the first-phase measure for the implementation of the September 19, 2005 joint statement for the denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula, and discussed the next-phase goals and commitments of the six parties before adopting a joint document.
    According to the joint document made public on October 3, the U.S. decided to take such political measures as delisting the DPRK as a terrorism sponsor and putting an end to the application of the Trading with the Enemy Act in return for the DPRK's neutralization of its nuclear facilities by the end of 2007 on the principle of "action for action" and the five parties decided to wind up the economic compensation equivalent to one million tons of heavy fuel oil whose supply has already started and is now underway under February 13 agreement.
