U.S. Sees Progress In Nuclear Talks With N. Korea

GENEVA (AP) ― The top U.S. nuclear negotiator on North Korea said the two sides made progress in their stalled nuclear talks on Thursday but were still short of an agreement.

Assistant U.S. Secretary of State Christopher Hill told reporters that the talks in Geneva were probably the most substantive that Washington has had with North Korea since problems developed in December over disarming Pyongyang's nuclear weapons program.

"We certainly are further along in this consultation than we were when I arrived this morning," Hill said. "There has been progress."

"We're going to report to capitals and see where we are tomorrow and the next day," Hill said after meetings with North Korean Vice Foreign Minister Kim Kye Gwan.
