July 6 - China said Thursday it was discussing a timetable to restart the six-party talks with the other parties involved in the issue.

 

"The parties have proposed various possibilities for the resumption," Chinese foreign ministry1 spokesman Qin Gang said at a regular briefing.

 

"We are talking to the other parties," he said, adding that China was "open to proposals".

 

Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Alexander Losyukov was quoted by ITAR-TASS news agency as saying on Wednesday that the talks could resume next week.

 

Qin said the Chinese side "had noted2 the remarks of the Russian chief delegate" and is consulting with other parties.

 

The possible resumption of the talks comes after a few weeks of shuttle diplomacy3. U.S. envoy4 Christopher Hill and Chinese Foreign Minister Yang Jiechi have both visited the DPRK over the past fortnight.

 

The DPRK recently invited inspectors5 from the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) to inspect its nuclear facility, a step welcomed by the international community and a positive sign for the six-party talks process.

 

The IAEA has devised a verification arrangement in order to shut down and seal the Yongbyon nuclear establishment after its five-day visit last week.

 

Under an agreement adopted by the six parties on Feb. 13, the DPRK was supposed to shut down and seal off its Yongbyon nuclear facilities within 60 days in exchange for 50,000 tons of heavy fuel oil or equivalent aid.

 

The spokesman said the six parties involving China, the DPRK, the United States, the Republic of Korea, Russia and Japan share common goals and interests, and have made promises on the issue, Qin said.

 

China will fulfill6 its promise "strictly7 and completely", Qin added.
