U.S. hopes North Korea's delay in disclosing nuclear details only temporary

WASHINGTON (CNN) - The Bush administration was hoping to spend the early hours of 2008 poring over a new document from the North Koreans: a full list of its nuclear secrets. No such luck.

The North Koreans let the New Year's Eve deadline come and go without revealing anything.

The United States now is hoping the delay will only be temporary and that the official declaration will be sent along in the coming days. The U.S. goal is to press ahead with negotiations and achieve full denuclearization of the Korean peninsula by the end of the new year.
