Kim “felt thanks for and highly praised China’s promotion of denuclearisation of the Korean Peninsula and its important role in protecting the peninsula’s peace and stability,” said official broadcaster CCTV in a report on Kim’s meeting with Xi in Beijing.

Xi told Kim he “wants North Korea and the US to carry out the results of their leadership summit”, the report said.
