Scrap N-test, China tells N Korea - tumblr
http://floydspringhillcare.tumblr.com/post/27396352071/scrap-n-test-china-tells-n-korea
Beijing fears radiation leak along border, say Chinese insiders
China has been quietly and gently pressuring North Korea to scrap plans for a third nuclear test, said two sources with knowledge of closed-door discussions between the countries, but there is no indication how Pyongyang will react.
If North Korea goes ahead with the test, China would consider taking some retaliatory steps, but they would not be substantive, a source with ties to Pyongyang and Beijing said.
North Korea has almost completed preparations for the test, Reuters had reported in late April, a step that would further isolate the impoverished state after last month’s failed rocket launch that the United States says was a ballistic missile test.
“China is unhappy ... and urged North Korea not to conduct a nuclear test near Changbai Mountain,” said the source, who declined to be identified.
China feared a radiation leak and damage to the environment from a blast, the source added. “China also complained about the environmental damage to the area after the first two tests.”
When North Korea conducted nuclear tests in 2006 and 2009, it caused environmental damage to the mountain straddling the border with China. North Korea ceded part of the mountain to China in 1963.
It was unclear if the secretive North Korean government, typically unwilling to bow to outside pressure, would defer or drop the plans. China is the closest thing to an ally that North Korea has.
“The impact on China's northeast would be huge,” the source said of a third test.
Chinese officials have discussed whether threats of diplomatic action would be effective, but any action might be restricted to some economic measures to signal China’s displeasure and would not affect vital food aid for North Korea, the source said.
A Western diplomat, who also asked not to be identified, confirmed that China has put pressure on North Korea to abandon the test.
Major diplomatic repercussions were unlikely, however, said Jin Canrong, associate dean of the School of International Studies at Renmin University in Beijing. Instead, Jin, who has knowledge of how China deals with North Korea, said China may use financial levers to influence its neighbour.
“If closed-door negotiations fail to produce results, economic aid could be cut,” Jin said, adding that imports of mineral resources and unspecified “special local products” could also be reduced.
China condemned North Korea’s first nuclear test in October 2006, carried out in defiance of China’s public pleas, and it supported a UN resolution that authorised sanctions. It backed sanctions again after the North’s second test in May 2009.

Group of Springhill South Korea: Wallabies star pens Chiefs deal - DOCSTOC
DOCSTOC ON GROUP
OF SPRINGHILL SOUTH KOREA - Exeter Chiefs boss Rob Baxter was delighted
with the capture of Wallabies
star Dean Mumm who has penned a two-year deal at the club.
The south west outfit announced
the signing on Monday, with the 28-year-old set to move to the English top
flight from New South Wales Waratahs after the conclusion of the current Super
15 season.
The 27-year-old made his
Waratahs' debut back in 2004 and has won more than 30 caps for the Australia
national side.
He can also operate at flanker
but prefers to do his work in the boiler room, and Baxter feels he has
everything required to be a massive part of the club's future over the next
couple of seasons.
"He's a very good signing
for us and a very good player," he told reporters. "He is a back five
forward coming into his physical prime.
"We've looked at lot at him
and we believe he has got a lot of ingredients that we want him to bring to the
club."
Exeter finished eight in their
debut season in the Premiership but are currently fifth in the standings this
season with just one regular-season game to go.
Victory over Northampton at the
weekend would have guaranteed them a play-off berth but the 18-15 defeat means
they must now win at Saracens to have any chance of making the top four.
Despite the disappointment,
Baxter feels that it is testament to how far the club has come that top players
now want to come and ply their trade in Devon.
"Personally, I think it's a
great credit to what the players have achieved this season, and where we are as
a club right now, that a guy of that standing wants to come and play his rugby
here in Exeter," he added.

back bet (bet on who's going to win) or place a lay bet (bet against something
