SEOUL -- Regional powers are likely to resume talks early next month with North Korea on ending the secretive state's development of nuclear weapons, a senior South Korean official said on Friday. North Korea earlier this week handed over more than 18,000 pages of records that detailed its production of weapons-grade plutonium over the years as part of an agreement reached in six country talks on giving up its atomic weapons ambitions. "I anticipate the talks to take place in June, and we have the first half rather than the second in mind," South Korean envoy to those talks, Kim Sook, told reporters.
