Musing on Iranian visits to Pyongyang
June 12 2003 / Sydney Morning Herald
Iranian experts on nuclear issues secretly visited North Korea this year, possibly to ask Pyongyang officials for advice on how to handle international inspectors, a Japanese newspaper claimed yesterday.
...The Iranians made three visits to North Korea between March and May, the conservative Sankei Shimbun said, quoting "a Korean peninsula source".
The visits "may have been intended to ask North Korea for know-how on how to act when accepting inspectors", Sankei quoted the source as saying.
