US chief negotiator Christopher Hill said Monday morning the six
parties would discuss the second draft of the common document the
Chinese delegation presented last night.??
The six parties to the Korean Peninsula nuclear issue talks had
discussed the first draft over the past two days. "The process is
rather well" despite "difference on language," said Hill.
However, it remained a "tough task" and needed a lot of patience
for all the parties to reach a consensus.
The US delegation will hold bilateral talks with the South
Korean delegation today, according to Hill, who is also US
assistant secretary of state.
