Foreign ministers of Southeast Asian nations resolved on Saturday to end talks with China on a proposed deal aimed at preventing conflicts in the disputed South China Sea at their annual meeting in the Indonesian capital.

He said that the ASEAN members are determined to conclude the discussions as soon as possible.
