Southeast Asian countries want to help bring North Korea back to denuclearization talks and think a regional security gathering they will host next month can play a role, Thailand's prime minister said Monday. Abhisit Vejjajiva said senior officials at the South Korea-ASEAN summit were working on a statement to be issued Tuesday that would include «our desire to see peace and security and what the region can offer to do» on North Korea. «Obviously we want everybody to respect the U.N. resolutions,» he told AP Television News on the sidelines of the meeting.
