China on Thursday stood resolutely moderate following North Korea's shelling of a South Korean island, despite international pressure for Beijing to try to sway Pyongyang.
North Korea shelled the South's Yeonpyeong Island on Tuesday, killing two South Korean marines and two civilians, and injuring 15 others.
Comments by Premier Wen Jiabao, the most senior Chinese official yet to address the issue, appeared in state media Thursday.
China is committed to peace and stability on the Korean peninsula and opposes military provocation in any form, Wen said, according to China Daily.
He also called for restraint and said the international community should make more efforts to ease tensions.
Restarting six-nation talks to denuclearize North Korea is essential to securing stability and denuclearization on the peninsula, Wen said, according to the report.
Also on Thursday, China's foreign minister postponed a trip to South Korea.
