- Reuters reports: "Chinese Premier Li Keqiang said on Wednesday that countries must remain committed to denuclearization of the Korean peninsula while seeking a solution to the North Korean nuclear issue through dialogue....U.N. diplomats said China and the United States have started discussions on a possible U.N. sanctions resolution on North Korea. Washington said Li and U.S. President Barack Obama agreed in New York on Monday to step up cooperation in the U.N. Security Council and in law enforcement channels....China and the United States are also targeting the finances of Liaoning Hongxiang Industrial, a Chinese conglomerate headed by a Communist Party cadre that the Obama administration thinks has a role in assisting North Korea's nuclear program."
- The New York Times reports: "Canada has agreed to negotiate a bilateral extradition treaty with China, breaking with a longstanding opposition over concerns about China's lack of due process and other human rights violations, according to a joint communiqué quietly posted on the website of the Canadian prime minister's office....China has long wanted bilateral extradition treaties with Western nations that it claims have become havens for corrupt officials who have fled....The United States, Britain and New Zealand have refused to negotiate such treaties, and Australia has not ratified one that it signed with China in 2007, largely over concerns including the systemic use of torture to extract confessions, show trials and the imposition of the death penalty for noncapital crimes....In-depth talks on an extradition treaty will occur in the coming months, according to an article published last week in the state-controlled China Daily newspaper."
The Washington Post reports: "Tiangong 1, China's first space laboratory, will come to a fiery end in late 2017. The average decommissioned satellite either burns up over a specific ocean region or is ejected to a far-off orbital graveyard. But Tiangong 1's demise is shaping up to be something different. Chinese officials appeared to admit during a Sept. 14 news conference in Jiuquan that they had lost control of the station....For the moment Tiangong 1 remains whole, currently orbiting the planet more than 200 miles above Earth's surface....Although much of Tiangong 1 will disintegrate, McDowell predicted that 200-pound piece...could withstand the trauma of re-entry....Even though China may not be able to steer Tiangong 1's flaming corpse into a specific spot, humans will likely be unharmed. The odds are very low it will fall in an inhabited area: Roughly speaking, half of the world's population lives on just 10 percent of the land, which translates to only 2.9 percent of Earth's surface. (By way of context, going back the last 1,000 years, no meteorite has killed a person.)"
