China warns possible Korea clash could hurt region

China warned on Saturday that a possible fresh clash between the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) and the Republic of Korea (ROK) could shake regional stability and it urged both governments to avoid moves that it said would stoke tensions.

The statement from Chinese Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Jiang Yu said "The situation on the Korean peninsula is now particularly complex and sensitive, and China is highly concerned."

"If a bloody clash breaks out on the peninsula, the first to suffer will be the people on both sides of the peninsula, and it would also certainly wreck regional peace and stability, harming surrounding countries."

Jiang renewed China's call for talks to defuse the confrontation between Seoul and Pyongyang.

"China resolutely opposes, without the least ambiguity, any actions that could lead to a deterioration and escalation in the situation and wreck regional peace and stability."
