S. Korea, Russia discuss N.K. denuclearization

SEOUL, Sept. 8 (Yonhap) -- Russia's deputy nuclear envoy called for a solution acceptable to all that would help revive the stalled six-party talks on denuclearizing North Korea as he headed into talks with South Korean officials Tuesday.

Grigory Logvinov, deputy head of Moscow's delegation to the multinational forum,
met with his South Korean counterpart Hwang Joon-kook at the foreign ministry
here.
"It is very important ... to find solutions acceptable to all parties that will
enable us to negotiate," Logvinov said during a brief photo session prior to
talks with Hwang. He will hold consultations with other Seoul officials during
his three-day trip that began Monday.
The Russian official is also scheduled to meet Sung Kim, who is in charge of
Washington's day-to-day dealings with Pyongyang as an assistant to Stephen
Bosworth, the U.S. special representative for North Korea policy.
Kim made a three-day visit to Seoul late last week as a member of an inter-agency
U.S. delegation led by Bosworth. The delegation also traveled to Beijing and
Tokyo, seeking ways to break a stalemate in the denuclearization process as the
North continues to boycott the six-party talks.
