Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Alexander Alekseyev said in Moscow Sunday the resumption of the six-party talks on the Korean Peninsula nuclear issue is very important and Russia hopes for concrete results from the talks.
Alekseyev, who heads the Russian delegation to the six-party talks in Beijing, told the Itar-Tass News Agency before his departure that the talks resume after a suspension of more than a year and the six parties in the negotiations have all expressed hopes that the new round of talks will produce concrete results.
North Korea and the US have agreed to re-open the six-party talks Tuesday in the Chinese capital.
Three rounds of talks had been held since 2003, but the talks were stalled last June as Pyongyang accused Washington of adopting a hostile policy toward North Korea.
