A senior official of the United States says the six-party talks on the Korean nuclear issue were "very successful."
In the first news briefing by the US side on the talks, which ended Saturday, the official, on condition of anonymity, said the negotiation endeavor is moving towards "complete, verifiable and irreversible dismantlement," of nuclear programs of North Korea.

He says a pattern has been set up in Northeast Asia for a unique kind of security dialogue.

He said China has done an "exceptional job" for the talks. He named China not only a "participant," but also a "facilitator" and"mediator."

The official confirmed the US and the North Korean delegations met twice in sidelines of the six-party talks. US delegates said the North Korea team were "less confrontational" and "very professional."

He said if the two countries can move past the nuclear problem, the US is ready to go through all kinds of talks leading towards normalization. (Xu Qinduo)
