Beijing: Chinese President Xi Jinping urged US President Donald Trump to “show flexibility” towards North Korea, including the “timely” easing of sanctions, at the G20 summit last week, China’s foreign minister said.
Xi visited North Korea prior to meeting Trump at the G20 in Japan on Saturday, and analysts said the Chinese leader could use the trip as leverage in his trade war talks with the US leader.
Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi told reporters yesterday that Xi “pushed for the US to show flexibility and meet the DPRK halfway, including the timely easing of sanctions against the DPRK and finding a solution to each other’s concerns through dialogue.” But Beijing has sought to keep Pyongyang within its sphere of influence and Kim met Xi four times in China in the past four years.
