Clinton Calls for Nonaggression Pact With North Korea
By Jae-Suk Yoo Associated Press Writer

SEOUL, South Korea (AP) - Former President Bill Clinton urged the Bush administration Friday to sign a nonaggression pact with North Korea to help end a yearlong standoff over the communist state's nuclear weapons program.

Addressing a crowd of South Korean politicians and celebrities, Clinton expressed hope that six-nation talks on the nuclear crisis - which China is trying to put together, possibly for December - would produce a "verifiable" agreement in which impoverished North Korea would give up its nuclear and missile ambitions in return for food, energy and other economic aid.

"And I would include an agreement between the United States and North Korea on nonaggression because I don't think our country will ever be aggressive against anyone who did not violate an agreement first," Clinton said.

"I don't think that we'd lose much by giving them an agreement that requires good conduct on their behalf as well as ours," he added. "That is what I hope and believe can be done." <snip>
