BEIJING, Sept. 27 - Top negotiators to the six-party talks on the Korean Peninsula nuclear issue arrived in Beijing on Wednesday for a new round of discussions to be started on Thursday.

 

U.S. envoy1 Christopher Hill arrived in Beijing Wednesday evening and had a dinner with Kim Kye Gwan, top negotiator of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK), who arrived here Tuesday morning.

 

"We discussed the general terms and aspirations2 for the six-party meeting," Hill told reporters after his meal with Kim Kye Gwan.

 

"Frankly3, we had a good discussion of all issues. but we are going to follow it up with some detailed4 discussions tomorrow as part of the bilateral5 process," he said.

 

Hill said the U.S. delegation6 would hold bilateral talks with Russian, the Republic of Korea and Chinese delegations7 on Thursday.

 

"I just believe we are well prepared for the meeting...we are looking forward to having the disablement and declaration (of the nuclear programs by the DPRK) by the end of the year. It is very ambitious process."

 

Before his arrival in Beijing, Hill paid a visit to Japan and met with his Japanese counterpart Kenichiro Sasae to the upcoming talks.

 

The top Japanese and U.S. negotiators agreed to strengthen the two countries' cooperation in the upcoming plenary session of the six- party talks.

 

Sasae called on the U.S. side to continue its support for resolution of the issue of the DPRK's past abductions of Japanese nationals.

 

Hill said his country fully8 understands the importance of the issue. He promised to help improve relations between Japan and the DPRK to create harmonious9 conditions for the six- party talks.

 

The two sides vowed10 to work together in the next phase of the talks to urge the DPRK to disable its nuclear facilities.

 

Delegations of the Republic of Korea (ROK) and Russia also arrived in Beijing Wednesday. The Japanese delegation is expected to arrive in Beijing on Thursday.

 

"The core theme of this session is to make the DPRK declare all its nuclear programs and disable its nuclear facilities," chief ROK negotiator Chun Yung-woo told reporters upon his arrival in Beijing Wednesday afternoon.

 

Russian top negotiator Alexander Losyukov, said he is "cautiously optimistic" about the upcoming second session of the sixth round of the six-party talks.

 

"There may erupt some problems and difficulties, but all the six parties will make joint11 efforts to address them," Losyukov told reporters upon his arrival.

 

The DPRK shut down and sealed the nuclear facilities at Nongbyon in July under an aid-for-denuclearization agreement reached in February this year.

 

According to agreements, the DPRK is required to declare all of its nuclear programs and disable all existing nuclear facilities in exchange for a total of one million tons of heavy fuel oil or equivalent aid, with an initial shipment of 50,000 tons.

 

The four-day talks are expected to work out a road map for the implementation12 of the achieved consensus13 in previous meetings.
