Pyongyang announced today that it is ready to rejoin six-party talks to advance efforts to denuclearise the Korean peninsula.
A Foreign Ministry spokesman said the government will not attach any conditions to the talks and is willing to discuss its civil uranium enrichment programme.
The DPRK expressed its willingness to return to the negotiating table the day after Aleksei Borodavkin, Russia's Vice-Foreign Minister and its chief representative at the six-party talks, left the country after meeting DPRK Foreign Minister Pak Ui Chun.
Talks involving the two Koreas, the United States, Russia, Japan and China stalled in 2009 when Pyongyang walked out after the UN imposed sanctions on it for conducting nuclear and missile tests.
Last week Chinese Foreign Minister Yang Jiechi called on "relevant parties to seize opportunities to resume the talks as soon as possible."
