The following is Wada Haruki’s analysis of the larger stakes in the recent Japan-North Korea negotiations. Setting off the emotional issues of the kidnapping of Japanese against the record of Japanese colonialism in Korea, Wada examines the prospects for negotiating an agreement that could become the basis for defusing the range of contentious issues that continue to swirl around a nuclear North Korea facing acute problems of starvation and isolated from its powerful neighbor and historic antagonist, Japan. Wada Haruki is Emeritus Professor of the University of Tokyo.

In this special report, Peter Hayes provides basic information on North Korea’s uranium industry. He concludes that the main significance of the reported export of North Korean uranium to Libya is not that the DPRK exported uranium, a material that is available from many suppliers around the world, but rather, the fact that it has already developed an important prerequisite for enriching its own uranium.
This special report is accompanied by three documents that provide new insight into the support for North Korea’s uranium mining industry from the IAEA and western companies.
