Russian representative Alexander Losyukov said Saturday that the
six-party talks on Korean nuclear issue will end with a two-page
joint statement.
The envoys of the six countries will continue to discuss a draft
document on the initial steps implementing a 2005 joint statement,
Losyukov told reporters when he was leaving his hotel.
China is expected to work out a revised proposal based on the
draft after Friday's consultations.
The revisions will cover the issues on how working groups
operate, and how to provide aid to North Korea, if consensus can be
reached, Losyukov said.
"North Korea is highly concerned about the wording of the joint
statement," said Losyukov.
All parties do not disagree on establishing working groups, he
added.
