The six-nation forum trying to end North Korea's nuclear program will try to draft a declaration today laying out steps for disabling all atomic plants in the communist country by the end of this year.
The text ``would be a road map for the rest of this calendar year,'' Christopher Hill, the U.S. assistant secretary of state for East Asian affairs, said late yesterday in Beijing. All delegations agreed to the year-end deadline, he said.
Negotiators are working on a statement laying out the specifics of the disablement plan. They will hear a report today from nuclear officials from China, Russia and the U.S. who visited atomic plants in North Korea this month, Hill said.
