North Korea: Pyongyang Wants Talks in Early September North Korea wants to hold multilateral talks on the current nuclear standoff during the first week of September, Reuters reported today (see GSN, Aug. 5). The talks, which will include the United States, China, South Korea, Russia and Japan, are set to be held in Beijing. China, however, is pushing for the negotiations to begin on Aug. 21 or 25. The United States also favors August talks, before the September U.N. General Assembly meeting begins in New York, according to a report in the Yomiuri Shimbun. A senior Japanese official said Wednesday that negotiations could take place this month. “Late August has not been ruled out,” he said (Reuters, Aug. 7).
