    SUBJECT: APRIL 14 MFA PRESS BRIEFING: NORTH KOREA, THAILAND, HUMAN
    RIGHTS ACTION PLAN, INDIA

    ¶1. Key points at the April 14 MFA press briefing:

    -- China has "taken note" of North Korea's statement that it will
    boycott the Six-Party Talks.  All parties should work together to
    promote the denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula.

    -- China is "closely following the situation" in Thailand, a country
    that is a "friendly neighbor of China."

    -- The recently released National Human Rights Action Plan "makes
    clear China's objectives and measures" to "safeguard human rights in
    China for the next two years."

    -- China seeks "to have practical cooperation in every field with
    South Korea on the basis of equality."

    -- Asked whether China blocked a proposed Asia Development Bank loan
    to India because it included money for disputed territory, the
    spokesman said that "China supports the Asia Development Bank" and
    the "positive role" it plays for development countries.

    North Korea Reaction to UN Security Statement
    ---------------------------------------------

    ¶2. China has "taken note" of North Korea's statement that it will
    boycott the Six-Party Talks, said spokesperson Jiang Yu at the April
    14 regularly scheduled MFA press briefing.  "Under the current
    circumstances," said Jiang, all parties should work together to
    promote the denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula.  China hopes
    that all parties will "proceed from their overall interests and
    exhibit restraint in order to resume the Six-Party Talks.  Regarding
    the potential adjustments to sanctions proscribed in UN Security
    Council Resolution 1718, Jiang said the "relevant committee will
    handle the issue."  The Six-Party Talks have "played an important
    role" in the promotion of denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula,
    establishing trust and building a regional security mechanism.
    Jiang noted that the recent Security Council statement "supports the
    Six-Party Talks" and "calls for its resumption."  Asked whether the
    MFA could guarantee that Chinese companies are not engaging with
    North Korean companies in violation of relevant UN regulations,
    Jiang said that the question was "a very serious one" and that "as a
    permanent member of the UN Security Council," China has the
    "responsibility of upholding all Security Council resolutions."  The
    spokesman was "not aware" of reports that a Chinese People's
    Political Consultative Conference delegation is currently in North
    Korea, but said that "China will continue its cooperation with North
    Korea."

    Thailand Riots
    --------------

    ¶3. China is "closely following the situation" in Thailand, a country
    that is a "friendly neighbor of China."  China hopes that Thailand
    will stabilize and enjoy "harmonious development," said Jiang.

    China Human Rights Action Plan
    ------------------------------

    ¶4. The recently released National Human Rights Action Plan "makes
    clear China's objectives and measures" to "safeguard human rights in
    China for the next two years" said the spokesperson. China "does not
    use human rights to interfere in the affairs of other countries,"
    said Jiang.  China's report on the human rights situation of the
    United States is "intended to remind the United States of its
    flaws."  China is ready to "promote human rights through dialogue."
    China also hopes that "relevant countries can be aware of China's
    achievements in human rights and not interfere."

    Korea and the Rise of China
    ---------------------------

    ¶5. Asked about statements by Korean government officials on the rise
    of China, Jiang said that China will cooperate with South Korea to
    combat the financial crisis.  China seeks "to have practical
    cooperation in every field with South Korea on the basis of
    equality." China's rise will "not pose a threat to others but
    provide an opportunity for cooperation."

    India ADB Loan
    --------------

    ¶6. Asked whether China blocked a proposed Asia Development Bank loan
    to India because it included money for disputed territory, Jiang
    said that "China supports the Asia Development Bank" and the

    BEIJING 00000983  002 OF 002

    "positive role" it plays for development countries.  China will
    "continue to make contributions" to the bank, said Jiang.  The
    border issue with the India is "pending" and China is willing to
    seek a "fair and reasonable resolution acceptable to both sides."

    Journalist Travel to Tibetan and Earth Quake Areas
    --------------------------------------------- -----

    ¶7. The policy of an "open Tibet has not changed" said Jiang when
    asked whether journalists are banned from visiting the region.
    Jiang said that interested journalists should "apply with local
    authorities" in order to visit.  Asked separately about foreign
    journalist access to areas affected by the Sichuan earth quake,
    Jiang said that she had "noted" that some foreign journalists had
    traveled to Sichuan.  The MFA is working with local authorities to
    organize a trip to the affected area, said Jiang.

    Pakistan and Terrorism
    ----------------------

    ¶8. Asked about Pakistan's efforts to combat the Taliban, Jiang said
    that China "always supports Pakistan's efforts to strike against
    terror."

    China-Peru FTA
    --------------

    ¶9. The Free Trade Agreement (FTA) between China and Peru is
    "currently in the national ratification process," said Jiang.  The
    agreement is the first FTA to be signed between China and a Latin
    American country and will help "combat the financial crisis."

    Somali Pirates
    --------------

    ¶10. China is working to "support and take part in" the fight against
    pirates.  China has sent vessels to the region and will follow UN
    resolutions and "strengthen cooperation."

    Visits
    ------

    ¶11. Special Representative for Afghanistan and Pakistan Richard
    Holbrooke will visit China from April 15-16.  Albanian Prime
    Minister Sali Berisha will visit China from the April 17-21.
