[Daily Nation (Kenya)] North Korea told Cambodia on Saturday it was ready to rejoin six-party denuclearisation talks, Phnom Penh said, without outlining any conditions to a potential return to the negotiating table.
North Korean Foreign Minister Pak Ui-Chun met with his Cambodian counterpart in Phnom Penh and "clearly stated that the Democratic People's Republic of Korea is ready to participate in the six-party talks", Cambodian foreign ministry front man Koy Kuong told news hounds.
"Cambodia welcomes the positive step," he said, adding that Pak "did not talk about conditions during the meeting".
Tensions are high on the Korean peninsula after the North's failed rocket launch in April, seen by the United States and its allies as an attempted ballistic missile test.
