Russian FM Calls for Package Solution to DPRK-U.S. Nuclear Issue

Korean Central News Agency of DPRK

    Pyongyang, July 3 (KCNA) -- Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov in an interview with Russian pressmen appreciated the results of the third round of the six-party talks on the nuclear issue between the DPRK and the U.S. as a "good omen," according to ITAR TASS on July 1. He said.
    What is important is to reach a final agreement. We have proceeded from the point of view that there should be a package solution such as the denuclearization of the Korean peninsula and a security guarantee.
    The talks proved that they should go in the direction of seeking a package solution step by step. Its first phase is to make a reward for the freeze of the nuclear program. The agreement can be made only when the talks keep seeking a package solution, not going through only a phase.
    We have advocated a package solution since the outset and all the countries have now recognized it.
