　　Shinsuke Sugiyama, Japan's nuclear envoy⁴, is expected to meet with Wu Dawei, China's special representative for Korean Peninsula affairs, as well as other officials over the next three days.

 

　　This is the first bilateral⁵ meeting among the six-party countries to the Korean nuclear issue following North Korea's latest nuclear test last week.

 

　　Liu Jiangyong is the Vice⁶ President of the Institute of Modern International Relations at Tsinghua University.

 

　　"During the upcoming talks between Chinese and Japanese diplomats⁷, the Chinese side will make its stance clear. And this will have direct or indirect impact to Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe's forthcoming trip to the United States, and the US adjustment of its policy to North Korea."

 

　　He also says Shinsuke Sugiyama is likely to raise Tokyo's concerns about the recent territorial confrontations⁸ between the two countries.

 

　　Japan has also claimed Chinese vessels⁹ locked their weapons-targeting radar¹⁰ on one of their ships and a helicopter.

 

　　China however, denies the charge.

 

　　The two countries remain at odds¹¹ over the Diaoyu islands in the East China Sea, when the Japanese government bought the islets from a private Japanese owner last year.
