U S pays North Korea for soldiers remains under bargaining
A U S Army officer handed North Korea 897000 dollars to settle accounts for 46 remains from the Korean War era. Negotiations continue on payments for 148 sets returned in 1998 and 14 this year, with Pyongyang seeking up to 30000 dollars per set. The arrangement funds recovery and forensic work, amid broader questions of price and humanitarian intent.
