The chief U.S. envoy in nuclear talks with North Korea arrived today in Pyongyang, the capital, to discuss the next steps to be taken under a disarmament deal reached in February, a Japanese official said.

Christopher Hill said before leaving Tokyo that the six-party talks were likely to resume in early July, but Pyongyang must keep its promise to shut down a nuclear reactor.

Hill is the most senior State Department official to pay a visit to North Korea since October 2002.
