June 4 - Foreign ministers of China, South Korea and Japan held a meeting on Sunday and agreed to promote common development and safeguard regional peace and stability.

 

At the one-day meeting among the foreign ministers of the three neighbor countries, Chinese Foreign Minister Yang Jiechi said all the three countries share common interests and responsibility in maintaining regional peace, boosting common development and building harmony in the region.

 

Yang and his South Korean counterpart Song Min-soon and Japanese counterpart Aso Taro1 arrived in Jeju Island, South Korea, on Sunday to join the one-day meeting.

 

The three sides agreed that the dialogue and cooperation among the three countries is important for regional peace and stability as well as the common development in the region, said a spokesman for the Chinese delegation2.

 

The three sides also agreed to join efforts in boosting mutual3 political trust, expanding mutual-beneficial cooperation and play positive and constructive4 roles in pushing forward the cooperation in international and regional issues, said the spokesman.

 

The three foreign ministers discussed cooperation in investment, transportation, environment and climate change. They also exchanged their views over the nuclear issues on the Korean Peninsula, he added.

 

The three sides called for an early implementation5 of the agreement adopted in the latest six-party talks on Feb. 13 and pledged to keep communication and cooperation in pushing forward the six-party process.

 

Yang met with Song ahead of the trilateral meeting and held talks with Aso after the trilateral meeting. While Song and Aso held one-on-one meeting earlier.

 

According to Mitsuo Sakaba, press secretary of the Japanese Foreign Ministry6, Aso and Song talked about bilateral7 issues and the nuclear issues during their 40-minute meeting.

 

Japan and South Korea will launch a new round of negotiation8 on the exclusive economic zone issue on June 17-18 in Seoul and begin the second phase of joint9 study of history on June 23 in Tokyo, Sakaba said.

 

Aso left for Japan Sunday night to deal with domestic issues, Sakaba said.

 

Yang and Song were to fly to Seoul Monday for the Asia Cooperation Dialogue (ACD), a regional forum10 scheduled to be held in Seoul on Monday and Tuesday.

 

The South Korean government said 30 countries will send delegate for the forum.
