Diplomats say China blocks NKorea nuke report

UNITED NATIONS — China is blocking the release of a report by a UN expert panel on the revelations of a new and highly sophisticated uranium enrichment plant in North Korea, Security Council diplomats said Wednesday.
The council discussed the report behind closed doors during a briefing by Portugal's UN Ambassador Jose Filipe Moraes Cabral, who heads the council committee monitoring UN sanctions against the North aimed at reining in its nuclear program.
