China has maintained close contacts with the participants of the six-party talks in an effort to create conditions for the initiation of the second round of talks, said Foreign Ministry spokesman Liu Jianchao Tuesday.

Liu told a routine news conference that the Chinese government is currently working to converge the views and stances of the six parties and striving to find the common grounds accepted by all sides so as to make the meeting touch the substantial topics.

All six parties favor the advancement of a peaceful settlement of the Korean nuclear issue and have attached importance to the second round of six-party talks, he noted.

He said the parties all hope that the meeting would be crowned with a success and were willing to make relevant preparations for it.

The spokesman acknowledged that the settlement of the Korean nuclear issue is a complex process, and could not be achieved overnight.

China will continue to safeguard peace and stability of the Korean Peninsula, promote peace and urge on talks, and conduct mediation with a just and fair stance, said the spokesman.
