China on Thursday called for proper solution to the frozen funds issue of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) with consideration of all parties' concerns.
Chinese Vice Foreign Minister Wu Dawei met with visiting U.S. representative Christopher Hill on Wednesday to discuss issues related to the six-party talks including the DPRK funds held by the Macao-based Banco Delta Asia, Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Jiang Yu said.
Hill arrived in Beijing on Wednesday to exchange notes and information with the Chinese envoy to the six-party talks.
Saying he had "a good exchange" with the Chinese side, Hill said the discussion touched on "where we are in the six-party talks process".
Chinese Assistant Foreign Minister He Yafei also discussed with Hill Sino-U.S. relations, Jiang said, adding the two sides appraised the progress of bilateral ties which featured multi-level exchanges, effective consultation and cooperation in international and regional issues, as well as the in-depth Sino-U.S. Strategic Economic Dialogue and strategic dialogue mechanism.
China and the United States wanted to continue to implement the consensus reached by both leaders to enhance cooperation, dialogue and mutual respect, and properly handle differences, especially on the Taiwan issue, Jiang said.
