Negotiations toward a re-start of the Six-Party Talks are progressing between representatives of South Korea, the United States, China and Japan.<\/p>\n
Following Chinese representative Wu Dawei\u2019s recent visit to North Korea, it is expected that meetings will be held between South Korea, the United States and China within a fortnight. The agenda is set to include the outcome of Wu\u2019s visit and a potential re-start of the talks. <\/p>\n
South Korea\u2019s envoy to the Six-Party Talks, Cho Tae Yong met with Wu on the 13th, and United States representative Glyn Davies will tour South Korea and Japan after meeting with Wu on the 19th of this month, it was announced yesterday. <\/p>\n
While details of Wu\u2019s visit to the North have yet to be made public, it is known that the United States’ desire to re-start the talks has been conveyed to the North, along with demands that they actively push forward with denuclearization. It is believed that Wu will convey North Korea’s stance to Davies during his upcoming visit. <\/p>\n
Following the 3rd Plenary Session of the 18th Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee, during which Wu was scheduled to share the outcome of his North Korea visit, some have questioned if his silence indicates that discussions regarding a re-start were fruitless. <\/p>\n
It is expected that Davies and Cho will exchange opinions during a two day visit to Seoul, starting on November 22nd. Davies will travel to Tokyo on the 24th to meet with his Japanese counterpart Junichi Ihara.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
