China hopes talks between the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) and the United States yield positive progress and promote the resumption of six-party talks, Foreign Ministry spokesman Hong Lei said Friday.

Hong told a regular press briefing that China is greatly concerned about the DPRK-U.S. talks held in Beijing.

U.S. Special Representative for DPRK Policy Glyn Davies met with a DPRK delegation led by its First Vice Foreign Minister Kim Kye Gwan in Beijing on Thursday.

The six-party talks, which involve the DPRK, the Republic of Korea, the United States, China, Japan and Russia, were launched in 2003, but stalled in December 2008. The DPRK quit the talks in April 2009.
