N.Korea may return to six-party talks in March or April

Washington, Feb.28 (ANI): North Korea may return to nuclear disarmament talks in March or April, the Yonhap news agency said Sunday.

It quoted an unnamed senior South Korean government official, as saying: "We believe North Korea will come back to the six-party talks sooner or later, possibly in March or April, although we cannot predict the exact timing."

He was talking with a group of South Korean journalists in Washington on Saturday.

"Our judgement is based on circumstantial evidence surrounding recent contacts between North Korea and China," he added.

China hosts the six-party talks and is the communist North's only major ally. (ANI)
