Iran: After Iraq and Lebanon wars, U.S. and Israel won't attack us (World, 24 articles)
|
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov has said the results of Iran's missile tests prove that US plans for a defence shield in Europe are unnecessary. Unless the Iranians built a larger missile with the same length to width ratio, dramatically improved the thrust of the rocket or decreased its internal structural mass, the missile could not achieve the range Iran claimed it did. The latest tests came a day after Iran said it test-fired nine missiles, including one that Tehran said had the range to strike Israel.

Q&A: North Korea nuclear deal (World, 12 articles)
|
SEOUL, South Korea - North Korea blamed South Korea for the death of a South Korean tourist last week, and rejected an offer by President Lee Myung-bak of South Korea offer to resume dialogue as " a laughable cheap trick. " If a strict investigation is not conducted over this tragic incident, that would be like throwing cold water on expectations for developments in inter-Korean relations through South-North talks the Unification Ministry said in a statement. South Korea suspended tourism after the shooting and officials said that all of the about 1,300 tourists at the resort at the time of the incident would have left by Sunday.

Pakistan: U.S. not hunting bin Laden on its turf (World, 10 articles)
|
NEW YORK - Pakistan's top diplomat said Saturday there are no U.S. or other foreign military personnel on the hunt for Osama bin Laden in his nation, and none will be allowed in to search for the al-Qaida leader. In an interview with The Associated Press, Pakistani Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi said his nation's new government has ruled out such military operations, covert or otherwise, to catch militants. On Saturday, Pakistan's army spokesman stuck to earlier statements implying that foreign or Afghan forces fired mortar rounds he said wounded eight Pakistani security forces and two civilians.

China's athletes feel push for gold in Beijing Games - (World, 4 articles)
|
As in much of Africa, Ncube said, China's reach into Zimbabwe's economy is equally pervasive: The roads are filled with Chinese buses, the markets with Chinese goods, and Chinese-made planes are in the skies. Such unease appears to be rising across Africa as Chinese become powerful players and, in some places, the dominant ones in economies across the continent. When Chinese President Hu Jintao toured Africa in April, he implicitly responded to concerns about his country's growing role on the continent.

China's U.N. Ambassador Wang Guangya, whose nation is an ally of Sudan, said that bringing charges against al-Bashir could jeopardize peace talks and put peacekeepers and humanitarian aid workers in Darfur at greater risk.

Senate OKs promotion of Iraq commander Petraeus (World, 5 articles)
|
WASHINGTON - The Bush administration is considering the withdrawal of additional combat forces from Iraq beginning in September, according to administration and military officials, raising the prospect of a far more ambitious plan than expected only months ago. For once, saying that the next six to 12 months will win or lose the war just might be right. So the next six to 12 months are not crucial because of what will happen in Iraq where, at best, violence will continue to decline incrementally, while Sunnis, Shiites and Kurds make painful and partial progress toward political settlements.

Pope says to apologize for sex abuse in Australia (World, 7 articles)

Climate change will also be a leading theme at a major Catholic youth festival, World Youth Day, which the Pope is heading in Sydney. Although aides say the pope is in fine health, the Vatican appeared to be taking no chances to ensure Benedict is fit for the church's World Youth Day festival, which attracts hundreds of thousands of young Catholics. Cardinal George Pell referred the case to an independent panel, the church said in a statement, after nearly a week of media reports that questioned Pell's earlier handling of the case.
