 NEW satellite photos have shown for the first time that North Korea has resumed some work on a nuclear reactor that could enable the communist state to vastly increase stocks of weapons-grade plutonium. The photos, obtained by the Washington-based Institute for Science and International Security, also appear to confirm reports that the North has restocked a smaller plutonium-producing reactor at its Yongbyon nuclear complex. The new images came to light as six-country talks to end the nuclear weapons programme have stalemated in Beijing. Negotiators were trying to break the deadlock again today. Construction of the larger, 50-megawatt reactor was halted at Yongbyon when the North and the United States signed an agreement in 1994. The accord fell apart in 2003 and there were press reports that construction had resumed at the end of June this year.
