All parties will discuss the draft joint document during Sunday's chief negotiators' meeting and they will do their utmost to reach an agreement, Japan's head delegate to the six-party talks Kenichiro Sasae said in Beijing on Sunday.

 

Sasae said all countries have their own concerns, but to solve the issues that should be solved is good for them.

 

"Of course all sides could not agree on every detail," he said, "but trying to reach consensus is our job and it's important to keep the efforts to this end."

 

He said he hoped the final joint document could reflect to the largest extent the opinions of all parties.
