DescriptionDemocratic presidential candidate Bill Richardson plans to travel to North Korea for meetings with government officials from the hardline communist nation.

Richardson plans to make the trip in early April, officials familiar with the trip told The Associated Press on Friday. They spoke on condition of anonymity because plans were still being completed.

The New Mexico governor is a frequent diplomatic traveler. He was in Sudan in January to meet with government leaders and made a trip to the Darfur region where he visited refugee camps.

Richardson -- a former congressman, U.N. ambassador and energy secretary in the Clinton administration -- trails top Democratic rivals Hillary Rodham Clinton, Barack Obama and John Edwards in public opinion polls.
