BEIJING - Foreign Minister Wang Yi on Saturday called for denuclearization, peace and dialogue on the Korean Peninsula issue.
"China's stance on the Korean Peninsula is consistent. No matter what happens, China will stick to denuclearization and peace on the peninsula and settling the issue through dialogue," Wang said in talks with visiting U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry.
Stressing that China is seriously concerned about the situation, Wang urged related parties to refrain from any act that may escalate the tension, as well as called for restoring the six-party talks.
Wang called for the parties to have dialogue, improve relations, build trust, jointly promote the denuclearization of the peninsula and attain lasting peace in northeast Asia.
He underscored China's unremitting efforts towards this goal.
Sino-US co-op on cyberspace
Foreign Minister Wang Yi on Saturday called for joint efforts with the United States to ensure safe and open cyberspace.
Wang made the remarks while holding talks with visiting U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry.
Wang reiterated that China opposes any form of hacking.
Cyberspace should be a field where China and the United States can enhance mutual trust and boost cooperation, Wang said.
Both sides should remain calm and objective when handling related issues and conduct dialogue on the basis of mutual respect and trust.
Kerry arrived in Beijing Saturday morning, kicking off his first China visit since taking office.
China is the second leg of Kerry's four-day east Asia tour, which has also taken him to the Republic of Korea. He will fly to Japan on Sunday.
China-US interaction in Asia-Pacific
Foreign Minister Wang Yi on Saturday urged China and the United States to interact positively in the Asia-Pacific region
"Chinese and U.S. efforts to build new relations should start from the Asia-Pacific region, where the two countries have the most converging interests and interact most frequently," Wang said in talks held with visiting U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry.
Wang called on both sides to step up dialogue and cooperation, flesh out a new type of relations between big countries and translate their leaders' agreements into tangible actions, so as to assure the two peoples and the countries in the region.
Wang urged both countries to send positive signals to the region and discourage attempts to cause trouble between the two.
