About This Document: The State Department summary indicated that the verification protocol would apply to North Korea's plutonium-based program, which produced the nuclear material used in Pyongyang's October 2006 nuclear test, and "any uranium enrichment and proliferation activities." The official Korean Central News Agency issued a statement by the North Korean Foreign Ministry Oct. 13 stating that, with its removal from the U.S. terrorism list, North Korea "decided to resume the disablement of nuclear facilities in [Yongbyon] and allow the inspectors of the [United States and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA)] to perform their duties on the principle of 'action for action.'" In the weeks prior to these announcements, North Korea had taken steps to reverse some of the work carried out over the last year to disable its key plutonium-production-related facilities, including a five-megawatt nuclear reactor, a fuel fabrication facility, and a reprocessing plant.
