 | | Chinese President Hu Jintao is likely to visit North Korea at the end of this month and meet with leader Kim Jong-il for discussions on the North's nuclear weapons program, Kyodo news agency said on Tuesday. |
 | | The visit, which Kyodo quoted multiple sources close to China and North Korea as saying would take place around October 24, is part of diplomatic maneuvering before a new round of six-party talks on Pyongyang's nuclear program scheduled for November. |
 | | At the last round of talks, in September, North Korea agreed to abandon its nuclear weapons program in return for aid, security guarantees and diplomatic recognition, but how the accord can be achieved in practice is pinned on future talks. |
