1994: The DPRK and the United States sign an agreement in Geneva. The DPRK pledges to freeze, and eventually dismantle, its nuclear weapons programme in exchange for help in building two power-producing nuclear reactors.

September 17, 1999: US President Bill Clinton agrees to first major easing of economic sanctions against the DPRK since the Korean War ended in 1953.

July 2000: The DPRK threatens to restart its nuclear programme if Washington does not compensate it for the loss of electricity caused by delays in building nuclear power plants.

July 2001: The US State Department reports the DPRK is developing long-range missiles.

January 29, 2002: US President George W. Bush labels the DPRK, Iran and Iraq an "axis of evil."

November 11: The US, Japan and the Republic of Korea (ROK) halt oil supplies to the DPRK promised in a 1994 deal.

January 10, 2003: The DPRK says it will withdraw from the Nuclear Non-proliferation Treaty.

April 16: US, Chinese and DPRK officials announce talks in Beijing aimed at ending a nuclear standoff.

August 27-29: The DPRK joins first round of Six-Party Talks in Beijing, which also involve China, the US, Japan, Russia and the ROK.

February 25-28, 2004: Second round of the six-nation talks.

February 10, 2005: The DPRK announces it has nuclear weapons.

July 26: The fourth round of Six-Party Talks begins but ends in recess after 13 days with no agreement.

September 13: Talks resume.

September 15: US blacklists a Macao-based bank alleging it is involved in the DPRK's illicit activity such as money laundering and counterfeiting. The bank then freezes the DPRK assets.
