N. Korea talks set to resume soon: US envoy
BEIJING - The six-nation talks on North Koreas nuclear programme should resume as soon as possible, the chief US envoy to the negotiations said Monday after holding discussions with host nation China.
I have had lengthy discussions with (Chinese Vice Minister) Wu Dawei and we have agreed to the need to get the six-party talks going as soon as possible, US Assistant Secretary of State Christopher Hill told journalists. I would hope the Chinese government will be able to announce soon the start-up of the six-party talks.
Hill made the comments before flying back to the United States, wrapping up a whirlwind trip to brief South Korea, Japan and China on his rare one-on-one talks with North Koreas nuclear envoy Kim Kye-Gwan in Berlin.
