Print Edition
CHINA supports the UN Security Council in taking necessary measures regarding North Korea’s nuclear test, foreign ministry spokesman Geng Shuang said yesterday.
On Monday, the UN Security Council unanimously adopted a resolution to impose fresh sanctions on North Korea over its nuclear test on September 3 for violating previous Security Council resolutions.
Geng said the resolution reflected the unanimous stance of Security Council members in safeguarding peace and stability on the Korean Peninsula and in the region, advancing denuclearization on the peninsula and upholding international non-proliferation.
He said the resolution called for a peaceful settlement through diplomatic and political means, supported the resumption of six-party talks and stressed measures to de-escalate tension.
“The Chinese side hopes that this resolution will be implemented comprehensively and completely,” he said.
As a neighbor of the Korean Peninsula, China has been closely following the development of the situation there, Geng said.
He said China’s unswerving stance was for denuclearizing the peninsula, maintaining peace and stability there and resolving problems through dialogue and consultation.
Related parties should bear their responsibilities, take practical measures to ease tension and resume dialogue and negotiation in order to solve the issue, he said.
Geng called on North Korea to abide by the resolutions of the UN Security Council and stop the development of nuclear missiles, and urged the United States and South Korea to avoid any actions that may further complicate the situation.
The “dual-track approach” and the “suspension for suspension” initiative proposed by China, Geng said, are practical methods to solve the Korean Peninsula issue.
“We called on the relevant parties to work with China to push for dialogue and negotiation and make joint efforts to realize peace and stability on the peninsula.”
Geng also said China firmly opposes the deployment of the US anti-missile Terminal High Altitude Area Defense system in South Korea. It will severely harm the strategic security of China and other countries in the region, he said, and damage trust and cooperation among related parties on the Korean Peninsula issue.
