North Korea Pledges to Drop Nuke Programs AP - 1 hour, 12 minutes ago

BEIJING - North Korea agreed Monday to stop building nuclear weapons and allow international inspections in exchange for energy aid, economic cooperation and security assurances, a breakthrough that marked a first step toward disarmament after two years of six-nation talks. The chief U.S. envoy to the talks praised the development as a "win-win situation" and "good agreement for all of us." But he promptly urged Pyongyang to make good on its promises by ending operations at its main nuclear facility at Yongbyon.

Any one here want to guess how much South Korea paid off Kim Jung Il to have a meeting/photo op with the South Korea president a few years ago?

Just a meeting. I admit it is a bit of trick question since I don't think the final number was ever uncovered, so just a ballpark answer will do.

Doesn't seem like a really done deal.

The negotiations had been deadlocked over North Korea's demand to keep the right to civilian nuclear programs after it disarms, and the statement acknowledges the North has made such an assertion but doesn't go beyond that.
