China backs the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) to increase mutual trust and enhance exchanges and relations with the Republic of Korea (POK) and the United States through dialog, a Foreign Ministry spokesman said Thursday.

At a regular press conference in Beijing, Liu Jianchao said China has been dedicated to peace and stability in the Korean Peninsula and holds that the north and south should improve their relations so as to eventually achieve peaceful unification.

China will continue to keep to this position in the future and play a constructive role in on the Korean Peninsula issue, he added.

The present situation on the Korean Peninsula was, on the whole,tending to relax with some steps taken by both sides to improve their relations, Liu said, noting that the recent fire-exchange incident was merely an episode in the course of the on-going relaxation of tension on the Korean Peninsular, he said. The Chinese side hopes that the situation on the peninsula will be able to go on developing toward the direction of relaxation.
