China and North Korea resume talks on denuclearization
In his first meeting with Chinese officials since his stroke, North Korean leader Kim Jong-il reaffirms his country's commitment to denuclearization in the Korean Peninsula. Kim Jong-il met with Wang Jiarui, a senior CCP official to discuss six party talks on denuclearization. The United States, China, Japan, Russia and North and South Korea are expected to be part of the talks that were post-poned following Kim Jong-il's stroke six months ago.
Despite North Korea's seeming willingness to cooperate with the talks, they have refused to reveal their full nuclear arsenal until South Korea agrees to do the same. Since both sides are stalling, it could put the talks at an indefinate standstill.
