NORTH Korea leader Kim Jong Il has said he hoped for an early resumption of the six-party talks to ease tension on the Korean Peninsula.
Kim expressed the hope during talks with Chinese President Hu Jintao last Friday.
Kim said North Korea's stance on adhering to denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula had remained unchanged, and the country "is not willing to see tensions on the peninsula."
Kim expressed the wish to maintain close communication and coordination with China in pushing for an early resumption of the six-party talks to ease the tension on the Korean Peninsula, and to maintain peace and stability of the peninsula.
Leaders of the two countries also exchanged views on the situation of the Korean Peninsula and other international and regional issues of common concern.
Hu said there had been some new developments of the Korean Peninsula situation since the United Nations Security Council adopted a statement on the sinking of South Korea's Cheonan warship. Maintaining peace and stability of the Korean Peninsula meets with common aspiration of the people, he said.
Hu called on all parties concerned to make positive efforts for the ease of the current tension, early resumption of the six-party talks and gradual improvement of the situation of the Korean Peninsula.
Kim highly appreciated China's positive efforts and contribution to the six-party talks and maintaining the peace and stability of the Korean Peninsula.
