Congressional report says N.K. may be cooperating with terrorist groups

   By Lee Dong-min
WASHINGTON, Dec. 12 (Yonhap) -- North Korea's possible cooperation with international terrorist groups poses problems in removing the communist regime from the U.S. list of terrorism-sponsoring states -- one of Washington's key incentives offered in exchange for Pyongyang's denuclearization, a U.S. congressional report said Wednesday.

The report, written by analysts Larry Niksch and Raphael Perl at the Congressional Research Service (CRS), said the information casts doubts about the U.S. State Department's claim that North Korea is not known to have sponsored any terrorist acts for the last two decades.
