NKorea Invites UN Nuke Monitors To Return

North Korea has invited the International Atomic Energy Agency to return, three years after expelling its nuclear monitors, the agency said. The U.S. said such a move would be welcome but remained critical of the North’s missile test plans.

Without disclosing the North’s terms, IAEA spokeswoman Gill Tudor said Monday that it received the invitation on Friday. That was the same day that Pyongyang announced it plans to test a missile by launching a satellite, a move that Washington has suggested could jeopardize a nuclear moratorium deal reached with the United States last month.
