BEIJING, Jan.20 - US Deputy Secretary of State Robert Zoellick is
expected to visit China next week amid continuing international concerns
over the denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula and disputed nuclear
programmes in Iran.
During his three-day visit starting Monday, Zoellick will meet Chinese
officials to exchange views on China-US relations and on major
international issues, Foreign Ministry spokesman Kong Quan said at a
regular news briefing yesterday.
"I look forward to a good exchange of views in Beijing on security and
proliferation issues particularly in Northeast Asia and Iran, among other
topics," Zoellick was quoted by AFP as saying.
Another point of discussion is preparations for the third China-US
strategic dialogue, which both sides have agreed to hold in the first
half of this year, Kong said.
Both China and the US are important stakeholders in the international
community and it will benefit both sides to listen to each other's views,
Zoellick was quoted by China News Service as saying, adding maintaining
contacts with China is very important.
A meeting between US envoy Christopher Hill and DPRK's negotiator Kim
Kye-gwan was held in Beijing on Wednesday following a proposal by China.
Chinese negotiator Wu Dawei also joined the meeting.
"The meeting showed a positive attitude toward the resumption of the
Six-Party Talks," Kong said.
The talks had been at the top of the agenda during a recent visit by DPRK
leader Kim Jong-il to China.
"During his meeting with President Hu Jintao, both leaders said the talks
were the best way to make the Korean Peninsula nuclear-free and said they
were prepared to continue them," Kong said.
