WASHINGTON - Satellite images from last week show movement at North Korea’s main nuclear site that could be associated with the reprocessing of radioactive material into bomb fuel, a U.S. think tank reported on Tuesday.
Washington’s Center for Strategic and International Studies think tank said in a report that satellite imagery of North Korea’s Yongbyon nuclear site from April 12 showed five specialized railcars near its Uranium Enrichment Facility and Radiochemistry Laboratory.“In the past, these specialized railcars appear to have been associated with the movement of radioactive material or reprocessing campaigns.” the report said.
Trump has met Kim twice in the past year to try to persuade him to abandon a nuclear weapons program that threatens the United States, but progress so far has been scant. Last month, a senior North Korean official warned that Kim might rethink the test freeze unless Washington made concessions. Town said any new reprocessing work at Yongbyon would emphasize the importance of the facility in North Korea’s nuclear program.
