Online Petition Calls for Release of Pro-Reform Demonstrators in South China
For more news and videos visit ☛ english.ntdtv.com Follow us on Twitter ☛ http Add us on Facebook ☛ on.fb.me A San Francisco-based Chinese activist has started an online petition calling for the release of several activists who were arrested in China a week ago for holding a peaceful demonstration in the south Chinese city of Guangzhou. The most well-known of the arrested activists is human rights advocate Xiao Yong. On March 31, Xiao Yong and a small group of people carried banners down a street in Guangzhou, showing their support for political reform and specifically for the recent statements of Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao. Among the messages carried by the demonstrators were "fairness, justice, freedom", and "no votes, no future." Other messages called for the Chinese leaders to disclose their financial assets. Xiao Yong uploaded pictures of the demonstration online, along with a message of support. A few days later, on the afternoon of April 2, state security agents arrested Xiao Yong and several other young men who had been in the demonstration. Xiao Yong's house was also searched and his computer was taken. The next day, Xiao Yong's wife obtained a copy of her husband's arrest warrant from the Guangzhou city police department, which stated that Xiao Yong had been detained for participating in an "unlawful assembly". The warrant said he was currently being held at Guangzhou City's Number One Detention Center. Liu Xiaoyuan, a Beijing lawyer, said there is no basis ...

Russia and China join UN call for Syria peace
www.euronews.com The United Nations Security Council, including Russia and China, has thrown its weight behind Kofi Annan's efforts to end the conflict in Syria. A statement backed by all 15 members threatens the Assad regime with unspecified 'further steps' if it fails to comply with the UN-Arab League envoy's peace plan. Annan's proposals aim to bring about a ceasefire and full access for aid agencies. The text's approval was a rare moment of global unity, Moscow and Beijing having previously vetoed resolutions that condemned Syria's yearlong assault on rebels. No ultimatums were made, at Russia's request, and the statement falls short of a formal resolution. Nevertheless Russia and China's involvment is a blow to President Assad whose forces have made big gains, turning their firepower on rebel-held areas. The fighting shows no sign of abating and analysts now expect the insurgents to change their tactics and adopt guerrilla warfare.

Moscow and Beijing have twice vetoed resolutions that condemned Syria's yearlong assault on rebels.

He stressed however that there must be no ultimatums and that Annan, the UN-Arab League envoy, should release full details of his plan to end the bloodshed. The text, which falls short of a formal resolution, could be adopted swiftly. Visiting Indonesia, UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said the situation in Syria was "unacceptable". He set out the UN's priorities as stopping violence on all sides, engaging in inclusive political dialogue and establishing urgent humanitarian access.

Chinese Regime Says No to Sanctions on Iran
For more news and videos visit ☛ english.ntdtv.com Follow us on Twitter ☛ http Add us on Facebook ☛ me.lt The Chinese regime has openly opposed new sanctions on Iran. This comes after several Western countries announced tougher sanctions to isolate Iran's economy and prevent it from developing nuclear weapons. Experts believe the Chinese regime is against sanctions because of its interest in Iranian oil and trade deals. The Chinese regime announced on Wednesday it is against imposing new sanctions to resolve Iran's nuclear plans. The statement was made after Britain, Canada and the United States announced on Monday tougher sanctions aimed at isolating Iran's economy. The new proposals include freezing Iran's central bank and suspending purchases of Iranian oil. Speaking at a press conference in Beijing, the Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman said improved negotiations and cooperation should be the approach. [Liu Weimin, Chinese Foreign Ministry Spokesman]: "We believe pressure and sanctions will not fundamentally solve the Iranian issue, but will complicate the issue." The tougher sanctions came about following a report from the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) revealing Iran's nuclear aspirations to develop nuclear weapons. But experts on the Middle East believe the Chinese regime has its eyes on Iran's oil%mdashthat the regime is opposing the sanctions to avoid jeopardizing its trade relations with Iran. Iran is China's third major supplier of oil. China imported ... From: NTDTV Views: 150 8 ratings Time: 01:58 More in News & Politics

Secrecy Surrounds Investigation into China's High-Speed Rail Collision
For more news visit ☛ english.ntdtv.com Follow us on Twitter ☛ http Add us on Facebook ☛ me.lt After a deadly train crash in Wenzhou, doubt was cast over the safety of China's ever growing high-speed railways. But reports from the three-month investigation into the cause of the accident are being kept from the public. People across China have anxiously been awaiting the results of an investigation into a deadly high-speed rail collision in Wenzhou. The July crash killed 40 and injured hundreds more. But so far, the public has been left in the dark, the results of the investigation have been locked away by the Chinese regime. Further confusing matters are conflicting statements by probe deputy director, Wang Mengshu. A railway expert, Wang was quoted on Monday in state-run Beijing Times that mismanagement and human error caused the crash. Shortly after, the story was withdrawn. The very next day he told CCTV that he was misquoted and had not been involved in the entire investigation. Over the past decade, China's high-speed rails have spread throughout the country. But incidents like the Wenzhou tragedy has raised concerns that safety was overlooked in the mad dash to build. Preliminary reports blame the crash on defective signaling systems. It's unclear whether or not the Chinese regime will make the results of the investigation public. From: NTDTV Views: 29 2 ratings Time: 01:28 More in News & Politics

Putin's China Visit Marks Major Russia-China Trade Boost
For more news and videos visit ☛ english.ntdtv.com Follow us on Twitter ☛ http Add us on Facebook ☛ me.lt On Wednesday, Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin wrapped up his two-day visit to China. While there, he made billions of dollars worth of trade deals--and made some political statements as well. Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin has wrapped up the last day of his brief trip to Beijing, after meetings with some of the Chinese regime's top figures. These included Communist Party leader Hu Jintao, Premier Wen Jiabao, and head of the National People's Congress, Wu Bangguo. Putin expressed hope his two-day visit would broaden trade with China, which he expects to grow to $200 billion US dollars by 2020. That would mean an over 300% increase from current figures. Key to this growing trade relationship is a vast gas export deal, which the two countries have been haggling over for five years. It would see Russia, one of the world's great energy exporters, providing huge quantities of gas to energy-hungry China. So far, the devil has been in the details, with no agreement over many specific parts of the plan. But, at least according to Putin, the two sides are closer than ever to inking that deal. His visit also saw $7 billion dollars worth of other deals in various sectors, including biotechnology and space exploration. All of this relationship strengthening comes as Russia and China seem to increasingly have much in common politically, as well. The countries joined ...
