US, Israel Wary N. Korea Aiding Iran’s Nuclear Program International Christian Embassy Jerusalem, 7 Apr 2008American and Israeli officials held consultations last week ahead of upcoming US talks with North Korea on Tuesday, and both sides agreed that based on Pyongyang’s recent rendering of nuclear assistance to Syria, the isolated communist state could also be helping boost Iran’s renegade atomic program. Last year, Washington and Jerusalem worked out a strategy for curbing North Korean nuclear proliferation in the region, whereby the IAF destroyed a Syrian nuclear facility built with Pyongyang’s assistance and the US slowly released details on the attack. But information now obtained by Washington and Jerusalem indicates North Korea has transferred nuclear technology and materials to Iran to aid Tehran's secret atomic weapons program, according to Ha’aretz. On a related note, Iran over the weekend firmly rejected the latest incentives package offered by the European Union in exchange for Tehran’s abandonment of its own uranium enrichment capabilities.
