China says a top diplomat forged an agreement with North Korea on easing tensions on the Korean peninsula and restarting six-party nuclear disarmament talks. As tensions continue on the Korean peninsula, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Jiang Yu said Beijing and Pyongyang have agreed to show restraint. Jiang, who was giving information on Chinese State Councilor Dai Bingguo's trip to North Korea last week, said the two sides agreed to avoid taking steps that would further escalate tensions, and will work to safeguard peace and stability on the peninsula. She said the two sides also agreed to push forward the six party talks aimed at ending North Korea's nuclear arms programs. The six parties include the United States, North Korea, China, South Korea, Japan and Russia.
