Ambassador Zhang Yesui assumed the rotating presidency of the U.N. Security Council for October.
He held a press conference on Friday, outlining the Council's agenda for the month.
When asked how concerned China is regarding North Korea's announcement to start re-building their nuclear program, Ambassador Zhang responded that diplomacy is the best option in handling the situation.
"The six-party talks constitute a very effective mechanism. As the chairman of the talks, China has done a lot of work to promote the de-nuclearisation of the Korean Peninsula. As the talks are currently facing some difficulty, I am confident that China will continue to play a positive and constructive role. I believe that in this regard efforts are going on in the capitals of the six countries."
On the issue of Afghanistan, Ambassador Zhang said that on the 14th of October, the Security Council will hear a briefing on the latest situation there and will hold a debate.(Www.hXen.com)
