UNITED NATIONS — China is urging the United States and North Korea to seize the moment and take positive steps so that six-party talks on the North’s nuclear program can resume quickly.
China’s U.N. ambassador, Zhang Yesui, called last month’s talks between senior U.S. and North Korean officials a positive development.
China is assuming the rotating presidency of the Security Council this month.
Zhang also said Beijing does not plan to hold debates on more sanctions on Iran’s nuclear program, despite U.S. demands for tougher sanctions.
Zhang said diplomats need “more time and patience” to try to bridge differences.
