WASHINGTON - Senior Chinese and US diplomats have agreed to work together to advance the stalled six-party talks on denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula.

China and the US also believed the six-party talks was an effective tool to maintain peace and stability within the peninsula, as well as to denuclearize the region.
The two countries want to work with other related parties to create conditions to push the talks forward. In addition to China, the US, DPRK and South Korea, other parties to the talks include Japan and Russia.
