BEIJING, China (AFP) — North Korea’s Kim Jong Un told China’s President Xi Jinping his nuclear-armed regime was “committed to denuclearization,” the official Xinhua news agency said Wednesday, as he visited Pyongyang’s ally Beijing for the first time, ahead of proposed summits with Seoul and Washington.
“The issue of denuclearisation of the Korean Peninsula can be resolved, if South Korea and the United States respond to our efforts with goodwill, create an atmosphere of peace and stability while taking progressive and synchronous measures for the realization of peace,” Kim said during his visit which ended Wednesday.
