WASHINGTON - North Korea (news - web sites)'s lead official at nuclear weapons talks in China acknowledged to a U.S. envoy that his country has nuclear weapons and said whether Pyongyang tests, exports or uses its bombs depends on U.S. actions, a senior U.S. official said Thursday.
The comment was made by North Korean delegate Ri Gun to Assistant Secretary of State James Kelly during a social gathering Wednesday after formal discussions on the North's nuclear weapons program.
