North Korean leader Kim Jong-un tells Chinese President Xi Jinping he was 'willing to be patient' during talks on the country's denuclearisation

People watch TV news showing North Korean leader Kim Jong-un shaking hands with Chinese President Xi Jinping, at Seoul railway station in Seoul on June 20, 2019.

Chinese state media also reported that Xi told Kim the international community expects the US and North Korea to restart a productive dialogue. Describing the issue as "highly complex and sensitive," Xi said his government is willing to play a constructive role in the denuclearisation of the Korean Peninsula.

The summit comes as both Xi and Kim are locked in separate disputes with the United States — Xi over trade and Kim over his nuclear weapons.A Xinhua commentary said China could play a unique and constructive role in breaking the cycle of mistrust between North Korea and the US so they can work out a roadmap to achieve denuclearisation.

Chinese and North Korea media have said Xi would stay in Pyongyang for two days. His meeting with Kim would mark their fifth summit since Kim entered nuclear diplomacy with the United States and South Korea early last year.
