President Park Geun-hye commits to the improvement of ROK-DPRK relations and has worked a lot for the goal. China speaks highly of that. Since the beginning of this year, the situation on the Peninsula has been moving toward stability, which would not have been possible without the concerted efforts of all parties, including the ROK and the DPRK.

China will render firm support to the improvement of relations between the DPRK and the ROK.
