ROK proposes "two pillars" for solving nuclear issue
The Republic of Korea proposed that "two pillars" should be set up in seeking a solution to the Korean nuclear issue, said a member of the ROK delegation here Wednesday. The official, unwilling to reveal his name, said the proposal was made by Song Min-soon, head of the ROK delegation and deputy foreign minister of the nation, in a keynote speech when addressing the plenary meeting held this morning. Song was quoted as saying that this round of talks should result in a common document such as a common declaration. The "two pillars," which should be included in the common document, refer to the promise on the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK)side to give up its nuclear program and the promise on the other five parties to normalize their relations with the DPRK, provide security guarantee and economic cooperation. He said the ROK delegation said the common document should take "words for words and action for action" as a precondition and all the sides should carry out the measures they have agreed on in order to show the principle of "acting simultaneity." The common document should also include such contents as the ROK will transmit electricity to the DPRK, he said. The official said in this round of talks all parties have exchanged views frequently, and the ROK delegation suggested that in the following days, large amount of bilateral and multilateral meetings should be made besides plenary sessions. The six-party talks on the nuclear issue of the Korean Peninsula moved into the second day Wednesday. Delegations from China, the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, the United States, the Republic of Korea, Russia and Japan attended a closed-door plenary session that opened at 9:00 Wednesday morning.
