Chinese President Xi Jinping yesterday urged North Korea to return to six-nation talks aimed at resolving its disputed nuclear program, the state-backed China News Service reported.

Lasting peace on the Korean Peninsula is what people want and is the trend of the times, the report quoted Xi as saying. China’s very clear position is that all involved parties should stick to the objective of denuclearization and resolve disputes through dialogue and consultation, Xi told North Korean military envoy Choe Ryong Hae, who delivered a handwritten letter from Kim Jong Un, the report said.
