China Negative About S. Korea's Push To Take N. Korea's Uranium Program To U.N.

11 February 2011

YONHAP (BEIJING) - China expressed concern about North Korea's uranium enrichment program (UEP) when Beijing's chief nuclear envoy met with his South Korean counterpart, but insisted that the issue should be dealt with at six-party nuclear talks. South Korea's main nuclear envoy, Wi Sung-lac's visit came after China expressed "concern" about the North's uranium program for the first time in last month's summit with the United States. That had raised hope that Beijing could change its position and back Seoul's efforts to bring the issue to the Security Council.
