North Korea has firmly denied a report it provided Libya with weapons-grade uranium in early 2001, calling it a fabrication.

The New York Times, citing unnamed U.S. officials and European diplomats, reported last Saturday Pyongyang secretly supplied Tripoli with nearly two tons of uranium.

North Korea's state-run Korean Central News Agency dismissed the report, saying there has been no deal in enriched uranium between North Korea and Libya.
