There is more indication that another round of six-party talks on North Korea's nuclear program will be held next week in Beijing.
Japan's Kyodo news agency Monday quotes sources involved with planning the talks as saying they will begin June 23. Kyodo says a formal announcement from China is expected soon.
The news agency also says more working-level discussions will be held in advance of the formal talks. South Korean sources also have confirmed the date of the six-party talks.
North and South Korea, the United States, Japan, China and Russia have held two rounds of discussions on Pyongyang's nuclear program. They have achieved no real progress, other than an agreement to let working groups handle the tough negotiations on contentious issues.
