一名韩国官员说，废除北韩核项目六方会谈的六个国家的外长将于下星期在新加坡会晤。

这名官员说，这次会谈将在东南亚国家联盟举行地区会议的间歇进行。这将是来自美国、俄罗斯、中国、日本、以及南北韩的外长级官员第一次就平壤的核项目举行会谈。

这位官员说，会谈将会是一次非正式的会晤，而且并不指望会达成任何协议。

A South Korean official says the foreign ministers from the six nations involved in the North Korean nuclear disarmament talks will meet in Singapore next week.

The official said the meeting will take place on the sidelines of the ASEAN (Association of Southeast Asian Nations) Regional Forum. It will be the first time the foreign ministers from the United States, Russia, China, Japan and the two Koreas will hold talks on Pyongyang's nuclear program.

The official says the talks will be an informal gathering, and are not expected to produce any agreements.
