BEIJING, Jan 5 — China called today for “restraint” from all sides after Seoul said North Korea had fired an artillery barrage near two South Korean islands.
“Under the current situation, we hope that all relevant parties maintain calm and restraint, refrain from taking actions that aggravate tensions, avoid further escalation of the situation, and create conditions for the resumption of meaningful dialogue,” foreign ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin told reporters.
Hours after the reported barrage, South Korean marines on the border island of Yeonpyeong conducted live-fire artillery drills, Yonhap news agency reported.
“We are paying close attention to developments and changes to the situation on the Korean Peninsula,” Wang added.
