President Lee Myung-bak of South Korea has said he is ready to resume talks on the subject of nuclear disarmament in exchange for aid with Pyongyang. Making the announcement on Monday, he nevertheless warned the northern neighbor against provocations. Since becoming president in 2008, Lee has repeatedly linked the aid program to North Korea’s disarmament progress – a policy in turn repeatedly slammed by Pyongyang. North Korea declared on Friday that there would be no softening of its position toward South Korea's government after Kim Jong-il's death and that the country would never deal with Lee.
