N Korea's nuke problem to top agenda of ministerial meeting in Seoul.

TOKYO, May 6 (Itar-Tass) - North Korea's nuclear problem will be high
on the agenda of the meeting that will bring together foreign ministers of Japan, South Korea and China and take place in South Korea this weekend.

South Korea's Foreign Ministry said on Thursday the diplomats will
also focus on stronger regional cooperation.
Diplomatic sources in Seoul and Tokyo noted that problems related to
North Korea and security on the Korean Peninsula worsened following the
March 26 explosion that broke South Korea's 1,200-ton Cheonan in half
during a routine patrol near the border with North Korea.
Japanese and South Korean diplomats are awaiting from their Chinese
counterparts the information on North Korean leader Kim Jong-il's visit to
China.
