ADVERTISEMENT Stephen Bosworth arrived in Seoul from Beijing just hours after North Korea accused the Obama administration of harboring a hostile policy toward Pyongyang, saying it would expand its nuclear arsenal in response. "Nothing would be expected from the U.S., which remains unchanged in its hostility toward its dialogue partner," North Korea's Foreign Ministry said in a statement carried Friday by state media. The North "will bolster its nuclear deterrent as it has already clarified." Bosworth urged North Korea _ which shocked the world by conducting a nuclear test in 2006 _ not to carry out another atomic test, as the communist regime has threatened to do in retaliation for U.N. sanctions its recent rocket launch. "If the North Koreans decide to carry out a second nuclear test, we will deal with consequences of that. And there will be consequences," Bosworth told reporters, without elaborating. "But we can't control at this stage what North Korea does. We certainly very much hope that they will not do a second nuclear test," he said. However, Bosworth said Washington is ready and willing to hold direct talks with Pyongyang. "We would not interpret our policy as being hostile ... President Obama has stressed on numerous occasions that the door to dialogue remains open," he told reporters after talks with Seoul's foreign minister. He said he hopes Pyongyang realizes "it is in their interest to continue dialogue and negotiation on a multilateral basis." Former President George W. Bush once abhored direct talks with North Korea _ a country that he termed as part of an "axis of evil _ but agreed to allow his nuclear envoy engage in direct talks with North Koreans after Pyongyang conducted its first-ever nuclear test in 2006. While campaigning for the presidency, Obama went further and said he would be willing to meet with North Korean leader Kim Jong Il if it helps denuclearization. His administration so far maintained its support only for talks within the framework of nuclear negotiations. Bosworth's trip to the region came as North Korea continued to ratchet up nuclear tensions following its controversial April 5 rocket launch. Pyongyang characterized the launch as a successful bid to send a satellite into space. The U.S. and others saw it as a violation of U.N. Security Council resolutions barring the North from ballistic missile-related activity since the same technology can be used to fire an intercontinental missile mounted with nuclear arms. The U.N. Security Council condemned the launch and punished the regime by slapping sanctions on three North Korean firms. North Korea retaliated by quitting the nuclear negotiations, kicking out U.S. and U.N. inspectors and warning it may conduct nuclear or long-range missile tests if the U.N. and Washington refuse to apologize for the censure. South Korea's Chosun Ilbo newspaper recently reported "brisk" activity has been detected at North Korea's nuclear test site, citing an unnamed South Korean government source. The report could not be confirmed. Pyongyang is believed to have enough plutonium to make at least a half-dozen atomic bombs but not the technology required to fit a nuclear warhead on a long-range missile. The impoverished, isolated regime agreed in 2007 to begin dismantling its nuclear program in exchange for 1 million tons of fuel oil and other concessions. Disablement began later that year, with Pyongyang blowing up the cooling tower at its main nuclear facility in June 2008 in a dramatic show of its commitment to denuclearization. But disablement came to a halt a month later as Pyongyang wrangled with Washington over how to verify its past atomic activities. The latest round of talks in December failed to push the process forward. In Washington, a counterproliferation official would not confirm whether the United States believes North Korea is on the cusp of conducting a nuclear test but said Pyongyang is capable of conducting one quickly if desired. The official spoke Thursday on condition of anonymity. Bosworth and nuclear talks envoy Sung Kim had no set plans to visit Pyongyang during his regional tour, which also includes stops in Tokyo and Moscow, the State Department said. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton said Washington's goal is to get North Korea back to the disarmament process, but warned it would be difficult. "We may have to show some patience before that is achieved," she told reporters after talks Thursday with Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, whose trip to Pyongyang last month produced little progress in getting the North back to the negotiating table. ___ Associated Press writers Christopher Bodeen in Beijing and Pamela Hess in Washington contributed to this report.
