China said on Tuesday it hoped talks in Singapore between the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) and the United States over denuclearization would achieve positive results.
Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Jiang Yu said at a regular press conference that Chinese Vice Foreign Minister Wu Dawei would meet U.S. Assistant Secretary of State Christopher Hill on Wednesday in Beijing to discuss the results of talks.
Meanwhile, top negotiators from the Republic of Korea (ROK) and Japan would also join in the discussion, she said.
Jiang said China had always supported all parties in their efforts to enhance communication and consultation on the six-party talks and jointly push forward the negotiations as well as the Korean Peninsular denuclearization.
"I believe each party would make full use of the opportunity to exchange in-depth views on the current situation of the six-party talks and following the work plans," she said.
Hill and his DPRK counterpart, Kim Kye Gwan, held talks in Singapore on Tuesday to discuss ways of resolving the disarmament impasse on the Korean Peninsula.
Under an agreement reached in October during the six-party talks on the nuclear issues on the Korean Peninsula, the DPRK agreed to declare all its nuclear programs by the end of 2007, while the United States and other parties would provide economic, energy and humanitarian assistance to the country.
However, the DPRK missed the deadline, despite reported progress in its nuclear disablement and declaration.
