19/3/2007 12:11

Chief negotiator of the Republic of Korea Chun Yung Woo said yesterday the frozen funds of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) are expected to be resolved soon.

Chun made the remarks after an-hour-long meeting on the denuclearization working group in Beijing.

The denuclearization working group started its first meeting on Saturday at the Diaoyutai State Guesthouse in Beijing.

The ROK will provide the heavy oil to the DPRK if the DPRK shuts down the nuclear facilities and accepts the nuclear inspectors, Chun told a press briefing on Sunday afternoon.

The Sunday' s meeting did not touch upon substantial issues, Chun said.
