 SEOUL, South Korea (AP) - The two Koreas met Wednesday for high-level talks to bolster joint projects and support reunions of those separated by their heavily armed border, despite Pyongyang's refusal to dismantle its nuclear weapons program.
The North repeated at the talks in Seoul that it wouldn't need nuclear weapons if Washington would drop its allegedly hostile policies, but Pyongyang did not say when it would return to international arms talks that last convened on June 23, 2004.
"If the United States treats the North in a friendly manner, we will possess not one nuclear weapon," the North delegation was quoted as saying by Kim Chun-shick, a spokesman for the South.
