Top NewsJapan's national security adviser in BeijingChina's top diplomat4, State Councilor Yang Jiechi has met the head of Japan's National Security Council Shotaro Yachi on Thursday in Beijing.
An earlier statement from the Chinese Foreign Ministry5 says both sides will exchange views on bilateral6 relations and issues of mutual7 interest.
Shotaro Yachi is in China from Thursday to Saturday for a high-level political dialogue.
Yang Bojiang, deputy director of the Institute of Japanese Studies under the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, has commented on the development of China-Japan relations upon the occasion of Shotaro Yachi's visit.
"Even if we cannot resolve all the specific issues in bilateral ties, it will still be a big progress if the two sides can agree to further negotiate on the related issues."Chinese vice8 president meets Japanese orphans10 raised by Chinese familiesAnchorChinese Vice President Li Yuanchao has met with a group of war-displaced Japanese orphans who were raised by Chinese families after the Chinese People's War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression11.
CRI's Niu Honglin has more.
Reporter :
Meeting with around 50 representatives of the group in Beijing, Chinese Vice President Li Yuanchao first shares his personal experience, saying a teacher from his childhood was also a Japanese "left-behind orphan9", and was raise by a Chinese worker.
Li says he believes this kind of story sets a good example for the two countries' future relationship.
I'm very happy that you're all working actively12 to promote friendship between China and Japan. Just now, I've recognized some old friends who I've seen many times and have built good friendship with.
Many among the group point out that peace and friendship between China and Japan should always be cherished and upheld.
Ikeda Sumie is the director general of a Tokyo support group for the Japanese returned from China. Her Chinese still has the obvious accent of Northeast China.
"Coming back when my parents were still alive made me feel happy and warm, like being back home. Now, my parents have both passed away, but the local government's kindness has also touched my heart and made me happy. We do still feel like this is home and we want to come back more."Abandoned by their birth parents during the hasty retreat at the end of World War II in 1945, the orphans were taken in and raised by the Chinese residents of those northeastern provinces.
Before visiting Beijing, the group reunited with their foster families in Harbin of northeast China's Heilongjiang Province.
Many of them said Japan is the motherland, but China is the hometown.
Noting that China will mark the 70th anniversary of the victory of the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression this year, Li Yuanchao says China is willing to push for the improvement of China-Japan relations.
For most of the past 2000 years, China and Japan have always lived in peace and learned from each other. But the war of aggression Japan launched has made both Chinese people and Japanese people suffer. For China, in dealing13 with relations between us, we've always insisted on separating the Japanese people and Japanese militarism.
By the end of WWII, more than 4,000 children were left behind by their fleeing parents. Most of them returned to Japan in search of their families after 1972, when diplomatic relations between China and Japan were restored.

Chinese FM hopes Iranian nuke deal opens up new prospects for cooperation between China, IranChinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi has expressed hope that the implementation14 of the landmark15 Iran nuclear deal will open up new prospects for cooperation between China and Iran.
Speaking in Vienna, Wang Yi admitted that China-Iran ties have been affected16 by the Iranian nuclear issue.
But he adds the traditional friendship and highly complementary economic ties between the two countries are the basis of their cooperation.
He says Iran played a pivotal role in the historic Silk Road, and he hopes Iran will soon take part in the "Belt and Road" initiatives proposed by China.
"Both the Iranian leaders and communities speak highly of the 'One Belt, One Road' initiatives proposed by President Xi, and want to actively participate in the construction of the Silk Road Economic Belt. We hope we can open up new prospects for cooperation between China and Iran through the implementation of the nuclear agreement."At the same time, the Chinese Foreign Minister says China will play an important role in the modification17 of Iran's Arak heavy water reactor18, one of the core issues in the nuclear negotiation19.
"We've decided20 that the six parties will set up a joint21 work group co-chaired by China and the United States. As China has put forward the idea of the modification of the Arak heavy water reactor, we would promote this process while enhancing communication with Iran."Wang Yi says the idea of the modification of the Arak facility was the unique role China played in resolving the Iranian nuclear issue.
Japan's ruling coalition has approved a series of controversial security bills in the lower house amid strong public opposition23.
The move marks the most significant overturn of the nation's "purely24 defensive25" defense26 posture27.
CRI's XYee has more.
Reporter:
The bills are proposed by Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and backed by the ruling Liberal Democratic Party of which he is a member.
It allows the Japanese government to deploy28 Japan Self-Defense Forces, or SDF, abroad to engage in armed conflicts overseas and help defend others even if Japan is not attacked, or exercise the right to collective defense.
Teng Jianqun, a researcher with the China Institute of International Studies explains further.
"Under the bills, Japan can dispatch its Self-Defense Forces overseas to directly engage in armed conflicts without any time and space limits. Japan has changed its military's defensive nature. This violates Article 9 of the pacifist Constitution, which bans the Self-Defense Forces from combating abroad and using the collective defense right".
Jun Okumura, a political analyst29 with the Meiji Institute for Global Affairs, says the security bills go against Japan's constitution.
"Most of Japan's constitutional scholars strongly believe that the interpretations31 are unconstitutional and it has caused more general, broader fear among the Japanese public. It is not a constitutional interpretation30 in the whole. It is a complex of legislation and could somehow drive Japan into a war."Ruan Zongze, vice president of the China Institute of International Studies says that Abe's act could seriously harm Sino-Japanese relations.
"Earlier some media reported that Abe clearly stated that his proposal of the security bills is aimed at China. He takes the approval of security bills as a method to counter China. This move won't help improve the current Sino-Japanese relationship or strengthen bilateral cooperation."The bills will now be handed to the upper house for discussion.
The ruling camp enjoys two thirds of seats in the lower house.
This means that if the upper house vetoes the bills, they could also be enacted32 in a new poll in the lower house by securing over two thirds of support.
The forcible passage of the bills followed a protest of over 100,000 people around the Diet building after the bills were passed in a special committee at the lower house on Wednesday.
The latest poll released Tuesday showed that about 56 percent of the Japanese population opposed the bills, while only 26 percent showed their support.
For CRI, I'm XYee.
Most Japanese Think Security Bills UnconstitutionalHundreds of protestors have attended a rally in Tokyo on Thursday as Japan's lower house of parliament approved legislation that will allow an expanded role for the nation's military.
Katsuya Okada, leader of opposition Democratic Party of Japan, says the revisions violate Japan's pacifism.
"If we allow the security bills to be forced through without much debate, Japan will be taking a very big step towards becoming a country, as envisioned by the LDP (Liberal Democratic Party), that can easily use military power abroad." Kokuta Keiji, a lower house member of the Japanese Communist Party who opposes the bills, says that Abe and members of the ruling party have ignored the questions they have posed about the constitutionality of the bills.
"They cannot directly answer my questions. If they were to answer my questions, the flaws in the bills would become apparent. The Liberal Democratic Party and government's approach has been to say something to change the subject or delay the discussion. These non-committal responses alarm people who reflect on what happened during the Second World War."Yoo Chang-ho with South Korea's Foreign Ministry also says they will not accept Japan's new security bills if they negatively affect their national interest.
"The South Korean government's position on Japan's defence policy is that Japan should adhere to the spirit of peaceful constitution and discuss the issue in a transparent33 way that contributes to maintaining peace and stability. Particularly, we are in a firm, consistent position that does not accept any policy terms (negatively) affecting our state interests."The legislation now moves to the upper chamber34 of parliament for further debate and a vote within 60 days.
China expresses concern after Japan's passage of security billsThe passing of the controversial security bill in Japan's lower house has prompted China's Foreign Ministry to release a new statement.
Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Hua Chunying has called on Japan to respect the major security concerns of its neighboring countries and not do anything that could damage China's security interests.
Hua also notes that people are justified37 to question whether Japan will give up its defense posture, or change from the peaceful development path it has followed since the end of World War II.
Hua urges Japan to draw lessons from history and stick to the path of peaceful development.
70 years since US tests world's first atomic bombToday marks the 70th anniversary of the world's first atomic bomb test by the US government.
The test was conducted over a remote stretch of desert in the state of New Mexico, on July 16, 1945. A flash of light and a thunderous shockwave followed as a mushroom cloud soared around 11.5 kilometres into the air. The blast could be seen from kilometers away, but the government released no information about the atomic test until the bomb was used on Japan, during World War II.
A previous study done by the Federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention found that exposure rates near the Trinity Site were thousands of times higher than allowed.
Tina Cordova, an Albuquerque resident who heads the Tularosa Basin Downwinders Consortium, a group dedicated38 to compiling data of community members diagnosed with cancer, says it's time for recognition and compensation.
She has been fighting for years to bring attention to what she says are the high cancer rates among residents in the counties surrounding the site, which she believes are linked to the test of the world's first atomic bomb.
"We were never given the opportunity to do anything to protect ourselves before or after. What we want as 'downwinders' is, number one, recognition by the US government that they did this to us, that they came here, that they performed this test and that they walked away and left us for 70 years to deal with it on our own."Troops sent to escaped Mexican drug lord's hometownMexican soldiers have been deployed39 in the municipality of Badiraguato, where drug lord Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman was born, as part of efforts to re-capture him.
This comes after video footage was released showing Guzman acting40 normally in his cell before his escape.
Investigation41 showed that he used a motorcycle to further his escape along the mile-long tunnel which was connected to his cell.
National Security Commissioner42 Monte Alejandro Rubido says security forces are hard at work to find the drug kingpin.
"All the security forces of the state of Mexico work in a coordinated43 manner to try to achieve quickly the capture of Guzman Loera. In this sense, the government of the Republic reiterates44 its commitment to continue to inform the people promptly45 over the activities taking place for this objective."Meanwhile, dozens of prison workers have been questioned about the escape. Authorities have said some officials must have helped Guzman.
The escape of Guzman, Mexico's most notorious drug lord, is a major embarrassment46 for President Enrique Pena Nieto, and it's also the second time the drug kingpin has broken out of prison.
Greek Parliament Approves Bailout BillThe Greek Parliament has passed measures for a third bailout - despite protests and fierce opposition.
In a late night vote in Athens, MPs have pushed through further austerity in order to begin negotiations47 with creditors48 and release billions of euro of bailout funds.
Dan Whitehead reports from Athens.
Reporter:
For hours in the Greek Parliament, exchanges were heated.
MPs from all sides, keen to have their say on the austerity measures being voted on.
The speaker of the Parliament described what had been put upon Greece as a "crime against humanity" - a "social genocide".
While MPs voted, protesters gathered outside, unhappy at the cuts being voted through.
"I think that it is clearly a nearly memorandum49, it is the harshest ever actually, unfortunately it is voted for by government, proposed by government, that voted for austerity to be kicked out. So apart from imposing50 new measures that will suppress our lives further it also creates disorientation among people and workers who have hope".
There were some violent scenes, with petrol bombs thrown at riot police, and tear gas fired in return.
But the majority of protestors were peaceful.
In the early hours of Thursday morning, 229 MPs voted YES to pushing through tough austerity measures, with 64 rejecting the plan.
Valdis Dombrovskis who is the European Commission Vice President for the Euro and Social Dialogue, says what is needed now is stability in Greece.
"As you know the Greek economy is back in recession, the banking51 system is on the verge52 of collapse53 and the Greek state is building up outstanding payments. THe economic problems in Greece are taking their toll55 with serious social consequences. What Greece needs now is stability and confidence. Once financial stability is restored the country can once again look towards economic recovery job opportunities, and a better future particularly for the most vulnerable.
The vote has seen Alexis Tsipras's Syriza Party split, with many of his MPs voting against the deal he secured with Europe.
The coming days will tell whether he and his party can survive.
For CRI, I'm Dan Whitehead in AthensSouth Africa VP Hopes to Learn China's Experience of IndustrializationAnchor:
South Africa is looking to China as a model in its process of re-industrialization.
The comment was made by the South African Deputy President in Beijing, before leaving for Qingdao, the second stop of his five-day trip to China.
CRI's reporter Wu You has more.
Reporter:
Deputy President Cyril Ramaphosa says the driving force behind frequent exchanges between the leaders of China and South Africa is economic growth. He recalled that when China started the industrialization process in the late 1970s, Chinese leaders like Deng Xiaoping had traveled to Japan and Europe to seek investment and technological56 exchanges. That's also what he hopes to get from China.
"We want as much investment as we possibly can get from businesses that originate from China, but we also want innovation. We want them to come and invest and as they invest, they bring new ways of doing things. We give them the market, and we give them profits."As an example, Deputy President Ramaphosa cites the expansion in South Africa by Hisense Co Ltd, a Chinese multinational58 white goods and electronics manufacturer.
In addition to cooperation in telecommunications and infrastructure59, the Deputy President says South Africa is also keen to get China's cooperation in the energy sector61, especially nuclear energy.
"Because you have developed nuclear energy, and you've built up nuclear energy power station, and you advance in a very admirable way. So we'll be wanting to draw quite a lot of experience and a lot of participation62 from your side."He adds this would be a big project and South Africa is looking at a number of countries including China to expand his country's energy mix.
Ramaphosa says his visit in Beijing has been a learning experience, and he is deeply impressed with the ways that China's state-owned enterprises are run. He says the SOEs have contributed enormously to the growth of China's economy, which is also what he'd like to see in the context of South Africa's mixed economy.
"Those that are owned by the public sector are areas that we want to focus on, to see how we can get them to play a more meaningful role in the development of our own economy, create more employment, reduce poverty and inequality as well."China has been South Africa's single largest trading partner for many years, and South Africa is China's largest trading partner in Africa. The deputy president believes with the financial cooperation in the context of the BRICS New Development Bank and the two countries' co-hosting of the Forum63 on China-Africa Cooperation later this year in South Africa, bilateral relations will be further cemented.
After Beijing, Deputy President Ramaphosa will visit the coastal64 city of Qingdao and will then conclude his trip on Friday in South China's Shenzhen city.

Copyright Watchdog Bans Unlicensed Music StreamingAnchor:
China's copyright watchdog has announced new strict rules on music streaming. Domestic online streaming service providers have been given until the end of the month to remove unlicensed music. Those that do not follow the order will be punished severely65.
Industry insiders believe that the ban will restore confidence in the copyright system and attract more talent back to the music industry.
CRI's Victor Ning reports.
Reporter:
The National Copyright Administration, or NCA, has released a new edict that bans domestic online music streaming services from providing unlicensed free music to users by the end of July.
Duan Yuping, an official with the NCA says copyright infringement66 is widespread in the country.
"We found that virtually all online streaming service providers have committed copyright infringement in various degrees. They infringed67 the rights of royalty68 holders69, disturbed the order of the online music market, and also impacted the development of our music industry. Therefore, the NCA decided to set stricter management of music websites as a top priority of the anti-piracy70 campaign named Sword Net 2015."Yu Cike, head of the copyright management department with the NCA, warns that those who do not follow the order will be seriously punished"After the end of July, we will seriously punish those who do not remove unlicensed music. Websites and apps that commit copyright infringement will be fined. Runners of illegal websites and apps specializing in music piracy will be referred to judicial71 authorities if they violate the law. "Zang Yanbin, an industry insider says he believes that the new edict will help revive China's music industry.
"We believe that the new edict will restore confidence in the copyright system, attract more talents into the music industry to create more quality products. Medium-sized and small brands are more concerned about this edict, since large companies have established solid cooperation with domestic streaming services. Small brands and independent producers tend to be the main victims of music piracy. "A final payment plan for legal internet music downloads from music streaming sites is said to be in the pipeline72 in the coming months.

China's "Peony Pavilion" Wows American AudienceAnchor:
After its successful debut73 at the Lincoln Center in New York, the National Ballet of China continues its US tour in Virginia, about half an hour's drive from Washington DC.
The original ballet "The Peony Pavilion" has continued to stun74 local audiences with its rich Chinese tastes.
CRI's reporter He Fei has more.
Reporter:
For the first time, the Ming dynasty play "The Peony Pavilion" has been introduced to American audiences through ballet. Thousands have crowded the Filene Center in Wolf Trap, Virginia to enjoy the ancient Chinese love story.
Feng Ying, the director of the National Ballet of China.
"This is an opportunity to show our artistic75 skills and the Chinese humanistic emotions to the world."The story depicts77 how the girl Du Liniang pursues her true love despite the constraints78 of secular79 norms and even beyond the boundaries between life and death.
The ballet adaptation is inspired and expanded from the Kunqu Opera. It is a combination of East and West.
Fei Bo is the choreographer80 of "The Peony Pavilion'. He says the show is one of the thousands ways to depict76 ballet in the Chinese eyes.
"Ballet, in the world of dance, is like the English language to the world. It is an official communication language. This is how can we translate an ancient Chinese story into English, in a way to let the world understand us, and it allows us to better interpret Chinese thoughts and humanistic sensations in English."The show ends in climax81, when Du Liniang is revived by the power of love. The audience stands up, applauding and cheering.
"First time I've seen the National Ballet of China. I think I had high expectations and they've definitely met them. It's beautiful. They're so amazing. And the live orchestra is just…it's unbelievable that they're able to bring that. " (female 1 in English)"It's novel to me. This is my first time to watch a ballet that combines Kunqu opera elements."Ma Xiaodong, one of the principle dancers of the troupe82, is happy but also humbled83 to see the cheering crowds.
"I think the American audience still knows little about Chinese culture. We, as dancers, have the responsibility to promote and show our culture to them. The Peony Pavilion, in this case, is a combination of the Chinese culture and the Western's. And that's why we brought it here."The troupe is heading to Purchase and Saratoga Springs in New York State and will wrap up their US tour next Wednesday.

Japan's ruling bloc85 rams86 through controversial war bills in lower houseJapan's ruling coalition led by Prime Minister Shinzo Abe has approved a set of controversial security bills.
The bills have been passed in the lower house despite strong public opposition on Thursday.
They would allow the Japanese Self-Defense Forces to play a greater role by engaging in armed conflicts overseas if they are enacted.
The bills can also help defend others even if Japan is not attacked.
Abe has argued that Japan should better prepare for regional threats and do more to contribute to international peacekeeping efforts.
But a poll shows that over 50 percent of Japanese people are opposed to the bills.

Juan Carlos Zepeda, President Commissioner from Mexico's National Hydrocarbons119 Commission is still confident about the ongoing120 bids.
"We acknowledge, and it is necessary to do so, that this first step didn't have the desired momentum121 (meaning the auction117 didn't go as well as expected). I insist, we still have four more auctions122 on the horizon which we see as less risky123. We have positive expectations, and we continue evaluating the results."A consortium led by the Mexican company Sierra Oil & Gas, US's Talos Energy and UK's Premier124 Oil has won both contracts.
