China FM pledges efforts to revive stalled nuke talks


Seoul (AFP) Feb 23, 2011 China will work to revive stalled talks on North Korea's nuclear disarmament and to maintain peace on the Korean peninsula, Foreign Minister Yang Jiechi said Wednesday during a visit to South Korea. But Yang, in comments made before he began private talks with his counterpart Kim Sung-Hwan, did not mention the North's uranium enrichment programme which has sparked international concern.
China will seek an early resumption of the talks "to realise denuclearisation of the Korean peninsula and normalisation of relations between related countries", Yang said.
