'No Pakistani N-scientist in North Korea'
QINGDAO, June 21: Pakistani Foreign Minister Khurshid Mehmood Kasuri said on Monday he had no knowledge of Pakistani scientists working in North Korea to help develop its nuclear weapons programme.
"I have no knowledge of that. This sort of misinformation or dis information continues to go on," he said on the sidelines of a gathering of foreign ministers from 22 Asian countries in the east Chinese city of Qingdao.
"We have every reason to stop proliferation. There are eight nuclear powers, we don't want a ninth power. It's against our own interest," he said. In Islamabad Information Minister Sheikh Rashid rejected the report as "baseless and false". -AFP
