China expresses its concern over the current development of the Iran nuclear issue. China hopes that the talks between Russia and Iran can be held on schedule and achieve positive results.

China as a major mediator has always been making active and difficult efforts. The progress of the six-party talks is not totally up to Chinese efforts. The key to resolving problems is in the hands of North Korea and the United States.

We support Russia's negotiations with Iran on the nuclear issue and hope the talks with yield positive results.

We support Iran and Russia holding nuclear talks and we hope they achieve positive results.

We hope the parties can further ease and eliminate their differences to resume the six-party talks at an early date.

We expect that the peace talks make progress and lead to national reconciliation in the end.

The timetable for resuming the talks is unpredictable.

The talks are nearing an end and will continue on Monday.

This meeting will not be a next round of six-party talks but it will be a good opportunity for the delegates to exchange views to discuss how to overcome difficulties and ensure an early resumption of six-party talks.

Despite difficulties ahead, all parties in the talks should show political willingness and flexibility with sincerity,
