BEIJING, Jan. 29 -- A Chinese Foreign Ministry spokeswoman said on Wednesday that tensions in the Korean Peninsula have become relatively eased and urged parties involved to avoid a u-turn in the situation.
Hua Chunying told a routine press briefing that Chinese diplomats on Monday and Tuesday exchanged views with Glyn Davies, visiting U.S. special envoy for Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) Policy, on the situation in the Peninsula and resumption of the six-party talks.
The six-party talks between the DPRK, the Republic of Korea, the United States, China, Japan and Russia, have been suspended since late 2008.
Hua said that China elaborated on its stance that all parties involved in the Peninsula must adhere to denuclearization, peace and stability as well as dialogues and consultation.
Under the current situation, parties should speak and act cautiously, make joint efforts to safeguard peace and stability and create conditions for the resumption of the six-party talks, she said.
An early resumption of the six-party talks is in line with the interests of all parties, the spokeswoman said, calling for a sustainable, irreversible and gradual process of building trust.
All parties should shoulder their responsibilities and make concrete efforts, she added.
