This past weekend North Korea presented documents listing at least some of the details of their nuclear development plans, and in addition, they destroyed a reactor tower that was essential to the development of nuclear weapons.  The moves are small, but important steps toward an end to the nations secret nuclear activities. 

In return President Bush agreed to lift some sanctions, and take North Korea’s name off the list of country’s that support terrorism.  The U.S., along with the other five countries involved in the negotiations have representatives in Youngbon observing as the plant continues to be torn down.  Although they admit this is just a first step and there is still a lot that needs to change, this is definitely a step in the right direction.
