A second team of monitors from the United Nation's nuclear watchdog arrived in Pyongyang on Saturday to monitor the shutdown and sealing of North Korea's sole plutonium-producing reactor.
Ryszard Zarucki is the team leader from the International Atomic Energy Agency.
''I am leading the second verification mission to continue activities, monitor verification activities at nuclear facilities in the DPRK. We will stay about two weeks in the DPRK. ''
The six-member team will put agency seals on parts of the complex that have been closed and supervise the installation of surveillance cameras, whose recordings will be regularly downloaded and analyzed.
They are also working to verify the status of two unfinished reactors, a spent fuel reprocessing facility and a fuel fabrication plant.
The first team is expected to leave North Korea on Tuesday. |
