The move by Beijing comes after the pariah state tested four missiles on Monday – stoking international condemnation.

President Xi Jinping’s main hope is that Donald Trump’s administration will create a new way of dealing with Pyongyang to alleviate the problem.

Foreign Minister Wang Yi said if North Korea co-operates, in exchange, the US and South Korea could halt annual joint military drills, which upsets the North.

China’s last suggestion was turned down by the Obama administration but there is renewed hope Trump will listen.

Mr Wang said the current Korean peninsula was like “two accelerating trains, coming toward each other with neither side willing to give way”.

He said: “Talks deserve another chance and peace is still within our grasp.

“Are the two sides really ready for a head-on collision?”
