Relating to the United States-North Korea Agreed Framework and the obligations of North Korea under that and previous agreements with respect to the denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula and dialogue with the Republic of Korea.

Summary

Calls for the President, in discussions or negotiations with the Government of North Korea pursuant to the implementation of the October 21, 1994, United States-Democratic People's Republic of Korea Agreed Framework (Framework), to uphold the following minimum conditions relating to nuclear nonproliferation: (1) all spent fuel from the graphite-moderated nuclear reactors and related facilities of North Korea should be removed from the territory of North Korea; (2) the International Atomic Energy Agency should have freedom to conduct inspections that it deems necessary to account for the plutonium and other nuclear materials in North Korea before any nuclear components for a light water reactor or technical data are delivered to North Korea; (3) the dismantlement of all declared graphite-based nuclear reactors and related facilities in North Korea, including reprocessing units, should be completed in accordance with the Framework and in a manner that effectively bars in perpetuity their reactivation; and (4) the United States should suspend its obligations under the Framework if North Korea attempts to reload its existing five megawatt nuclear reactor or resumes construction of nuclear facilities other than those permitted to be built under the Framework. Expresses the sense of the Congress that: (1) the Republic of Korea is the only acceptable source for the major nuclear components for light water reactors to be provided to North Korea under the Framework; and (2) after enactment of this Act, the President should not take further steps toward upgrading diplomatic relations with, or relaxing trade and investment barriers imposed against, North Korea without action by the Government of North Korea to engage in a dialogue with the Government of the Republic of Korea, implementation of the North-South Joint Declaration on the Denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula, and progress toward the achievement of several long-standing U.S. policy objectives regarding North Korea and the Korean Peninsula. Permits funds authorized to be appropriated or appropriated under any provision of law other than the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961 to be used to provide assistance to North Korea or the Korean Peninsula Energy Development Organization only if such assistance is provided under the terms and conditions of such Act.
