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 the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK), if consensus
can be reached, Losyukov said.
"The DPRK is highly concerned about the wording of the joint statement," said
Losyukov.
All parties do not disagree on establishing working groups, he added.
