South Korean Kim talks with press during six-party talks in Beijing

South Korea's top nuclear envoy Kim Sook (L) speaks with the press in a hotel lobby before heading off to six-nation talks on North Korea's nuclear program in Beijing, December 10, 2008. North Korea, which conducted a nuclear test in 2006, agreed last year to dismantle its nuclear reactor in exchange for aid. The negotiations in the coming week are expected to focus on how to verify Pyongyang's accounting of the program, but negotiators have said they expect the process to be difficult.
