Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, what discussions he has had with his Chinese counterpart on steps to improve relations between North Korea and the UK.
This question was answered on 29th November 2016
The focus of discussions between the UK and China on North Korea is how we both use our relations to dissuade Pyongyang from pursuing nuclear weapons. I discussed this objective with Assistant Foreign Minister Liu Haixing on 15 August 2016 during my visit to Beijing, and I raised it most recently with the Chinese Ambassador on 27 October 2016.
