Nuclear inspections

China opposes move to force North Korea
BEIJING, Sept 28: South Korean President Roh Tae woo asked Chinese President Yang Shan^kun on Monday to encourage North Korea to allow deeper nuclear Inspections, saying Pyongyang's atomic programme is a security threat to all of Asia, reports AP
South Korea's Yonhap News Agency said Yang responded that using international pressure to try to force North Korea to agree to mutual Inter-Korean inspections of nuclear sites "is undesirable."
A Chinese * government spokesman refused to give details of the discussions on nuclear Issues between Roh and Yang during their historic summit, but reiterated that China supporta denuclearisation of the neighbouring Korean peninsula
Roh and Yang met for nearly two hours in the Great Hall of the People. It was the first summit between the former Cold War enemies, which established diplomatic relations last month.
"My visit and the summit meeting will serve as a monumental turning point toward the promotion of peace and stability In Northeast Asia." Roh's press secretary. Lee Ju ng-ha. quoted the president as saying in the meeting.
The key to Northeast Asia s stability is peace on the Korean peninsula.'
The two Koreas, divided at the end of World War II Into the Communist North and capitalist South, have been negotiating for several years on ways to reduce tensions between them Although the
North Insists It has no nuclear weapons program, the South wants to make inspections of the North's atomic facilities. It insists that inspections begum there this year by the Interna
- tional Atomic Energy Agency are not deep enough.
"North Korea's suspected nuclear development Is not only the largest stumbling block between North and South, but it also Is a threat to stability and peace In Asia." Icc paraphrased Roh as saying Ice said Roh stressed the importance of mutual nuclear Inspections by the two sides and said he "expected a positive role for China in this respect."
China fought on the North's side in the 1950-53 Korean War and remains a close ally of the hard-line Communist leadership in Pyongyang.
Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Wu Jtanmtn said Chfpa hoped the two sides would settle their problems through dialogue.
He added. "We will continue to make our efforts and contributions to the relaxation of the situation.'
Both sides stressed that disputes between North and South Korea must be worked out by the Koreans themselves. Chinese and South Korean spokesmen said.
The presidents also agreed to hold regular Cabinet-level meetings to promote trade and cooperation between China and South Korea. a
