Top NewsChinese Ambassador on U.S. Warship Entering Waters off South China SeaChina's Ambassador to the US is lashing out at the Obama administration for its move to send a warship to islands claimed by China in the South China Sea.
Cui Tiankai is accusing Washington of launching a serious provocation4.
"Well, I think first of all, what the U.S. is doing is very serious provocation politically and militarily. It is a clear attempt to escalate5 the situation and to militarize the region."At the same time, Cui Tiankai is accusing the US of holding a double-standard, asking players in the region not to militarize the it, while sending its own warships6 and planes into the area.
"Whatever is happening now will not change our position on the sovereignty in the region. We are not to weaken our determination to safeguard our sovereignty and would not weaken our commitment to seeking a peaceful solution to the disputes with countries concerned. And certainly we're not going to weaken our position and commitment to developing a healthy and strong relation with the United States."The Chinese government has called-in US ambassador Max Baucus in for a sit-down, again calling the US action a "serious provocation."The US Navy sailed one of its warships within 12 nautical8 miles of Chinese islands in the Nansha Island group earlier this week without first asking permission from China.
The Chinese military says the move is a "show of military force" intended to militarize the South China Sea.
US' Action in the South China Sea Not in Line with International Laws: Chinese ExpertsAnchorChinese military observers are suggesting the US Navy's move to sail a ship into the Nansha Islands area violates international legal norms and threatens stability in the region.
CRI's Wang Mengzhen has more.
ReporterOn Tuesday morning, the naval9 destroyer USS Lassen sailed within 12 nautical miles of Zhubi Reef in the South China Sea without notifying the Chinese government.
This has raised strong oppositions11 from the Chinese side, as sailing within 12 nautical miles of a territory held by a different country is viewed internationally as a violation12 of territorial13 sovereignty.
The US Defense14 Department claims the ship was conducting routine operations in line with the international law.
Chinese naval expert Yin Zhuo says the US side is in the wrong.
"The right of "innocent passage" insisted by the US sounds plausible15, but it has not received widespread recognition around the world. At the same time, international legal documents including the UN Convention on the law of the sea and Convention on the High Seas, along with domestic laws in many countries have clearly stipulated16 that any military vessels17 have to obtain permission from the local government before entering the country's territory. "The US government has been promoting a Freedom of Navigation program around the world since 1979, insisting that it is within the framework of the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea.
Two weeks ago, US Defense Secretary Ashton Carter warned the US will fly, sail and operate wherever international law permits, saying there will be no exception to that.
Professor Su Hao with the Center for Strategic and Peace Studies at China Foreign Affairs University says that statement appears directed specifically at China.
"We know that the South China Seas' situation is very complicated. The United States, possibly if it wanted, could sail to some other countries and claimed areas. But it is not the real intention of the United States to provoke other countries, and is intentionally19 trying to make trouble with China.
Naval expert Yin Zhuo says the United States is deliberately20 intervening in affairs in the South China Sea.
"The main goal of the US is to get more deeply involved in the South China Sea, and is always putting the spotlight21 on the area when it comes to talking about China on the international stage. The United States sis taking advantage of the South China Sea issue to isolate22 China from other countries in this region. As such, this could negatively affect China's economic development, especially among the ASEAN Plus 3 and the ASEAN Plus 6 groupings, as well as the free trade area through the Asia and Pacific region."The US Defense Department is dispatching its new head of its Pacific Fleet to Beijing next week for talks.
Commander Harry24 Harris will arrive in Beijing on November 2nd to meet with Chinese naval officials to try to ease tensions and avoid any unnecessary escalation25.

China Germany Ties at Historical Best: German AmbassdorAnchorAhead of German Chancellor Angela Merkel's visit to China this week, the country's Ambassador to China is suggesting bilateral26 ties between the two sides are at their "historic best."CRI's Zhou Jingnan reports.
Reporter"I believe that German-Chinese relations are at their historic best these days. And Germany is obviously the most important partner for China in economic and political things in Europe."German Ambassador Michael Clauss makes the suggestion ahead of German Chancellor Angela Merkel's 2-day visit to China, which will kick off on Thursday.
The ambassador notes that China and Germany have taken part in a number of high-level political exchanges in recent years, with both the Chinese President and Premier27 visiting Berlin and the Chancellor herself also coming to Beijing last year.
Clauss says stronger business cooperation will be the top priority on Angela Merkel's agenda this week.
"We have 6,000 companies here, German companies in China, which is 10 times more than, for example, the UK has. And she will be accompanied again by a small but very high-ranking economic delegation28 and it will be partially29 CEOs of big companies like Volkswagen, which is the company which is most strongly invested into China. And she will also be accompanied by CEOs of small- and-medium-sized companies who are the backbone30 of German economic strength and innovation."On top of meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping and Premier Li Keqiang in Beijing, Angela Merkel will also make a stop-over in Anhui's capital, Hefei, where she will attend a meeting of the Sino-German Advisory31 Committee on Economics, together with Li Keqiang.
Germany is currently China's biggest partner in Europe in terms of trade and investment.
Trade volumes between China and Germany hit 177.8-billion US dollars in 2014, accounting32 for around 30 percent of China's overall trade with the European Union.
German Ambassdor Michael Clauss says quite a lot of trade with China is coming in the area of high-tech33.
"And also the framework is quite beneficial and positive for Chinese companies, a lot of legal safety; and on the other hand you have a very strong research and development environment. And there is a strong tradition in Germany that companies and research and development institutions closely work together in order to promote innovation, technological34 innovation."A recent German Trade and Invest report shows China was the largest investor35 in Germany in 2014, followed by the United States and Japan.

Chinese Mainland Won't Interfere36 in Taiwan Region's Election: SpokesmanSpokesman for the State Council Taiwan Affairs Office An Fengshan says the Chinese mainland will not get involved in or comment on Taiwan's leadership election in 2016.
"We will neither interfere in nor comment on Taiwan's regional leadership election. In terms of cross-Strait relations, the Communist Party of China and Kuomintang have, since 2005 and especially since 2008, made important and positive progress by adhering to the common political basis of upholding the '1992 Consensus37' and opposing so-called 'Taiwan independence'."The spokesperson also hopes that the two parties would continue to safeguard the peaceful development of cross-Strait ties.
"The current cross-Strait relations are at a crucial moment again. Based on this common political basis, we hope the two parties can consolidate38 and enhance the political mutual39 trust, stick to the correct orientation40 of peaceful development of cross-Strait relations and continue to make unremitting efforts for peace and stability of the cross-Straits situation for the sake of the people across the Strait."Taiwan's ruling Kuomintang replaced deputy legislative41 speaker Hung Hsiu-chu with KMT chairman Eric Chu in the island's leadership.
54-year-old Eric Chu was picked as the party's new electoral candidate.
He is set to face chairwoman of the opposition10 Democratic Progressive Party Tsai Ing-wen and People First Party chairman James Soong Chu-yu in the election, which is scheduled for Jan. 16 next year.
Relief Work Underway in Quake-hit Area in PakistanPakistan's Disaster Management Authority, or NDMA, on Wednesday said although the recent quake that hit Pakistan was massive it did not cause widespread damage to national infrastructure42.
Major-General Asghar Nawaz, said at a news conference that relief operations are in full swing and that the survey has been completed.
"We have obtained the reports from all the concerned ministries43 and the departments regarding reporting of any damage to the infrastructure, the dams, the other key buildings. Nothing has been reported so far. We have recorded about 42 aftershocks up till this time, with a magnitude ranging between 2.3 to 5.3, and as of this moment we are well balanced to take forward this relief operation to the next phase, to carry out the rehabilitation44 of the affected45 people."The disaster management chief said the losses were not as severe as those that occurred in the 7.6 magnitude earthquake in 2005.
However, many survivors47 in Afghanistan and Pakistan were spending a third night without shelter, and some were living in makeshift tents.
NDMA said it had distributed blankets and tons of food.
Further supplies would be delivered to remote areas once roads had been cleared and reopened.
The Monday's 7.5-magnitude earthquake cost some 385 lives in Afghanistan and Pakistan together.
Iran to Attend Int'l Talks in SyriaIran has confirmed that it will take part in international talks over Syria following an invitation from the Russian envoy48.
Iran's Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif will attend the talks in Vienna which is scheduled for tomorrow.
Meanwhile, Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian said political solution is the only way to solving the crisis.
"We believe that the solution in Syria is only a political solution. Americans and foreign players in Syria have no choice but to accept the realities in Syria. Mr Bashar Assad and the Syrian government have the necessary readiness for talks with insurgents49 who are committed to a political path."The invitation to the talks came after the United States said it is ready to engage Iran if it might help put an end to the war in Syria.
It marks the first time Iran will appear in the talks since the crisis broke out more than four years ago.
Iran has emerged an ally of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad's government in the country's long-lasting conflict.
Washington had refused to include Tehran in the political talks, seeing Iran as part of the crisis in the situation.
Iran has refuted such claims.
Analyst50 on Iran Decision to Join Talks in SyriaFollowing Iran's confirmation51 to the Vienna talks, some analysts52 are saying that the move is a positive development.
Political editor with Beirut-based An-Nahar Newspaper, Ibrahim Bayram said Iran's taking part could eventually lead to a solution.
"It is a positive development that expresses the wish of the countries and specially23 the United States to find a solution and to start a new phase of dealing53 with the Syrian crisis. All the past attempts were not completed, now with the participation54 of Iran I think the solution will be achieved and there will be a wish to put an end to this bloody55 crisis."The US has also welcomed Iran's decision.
US Deputy Secretary of State Antony Blinken said he hopes for a positive result.
"We hope that that participation can be positive and that they will join in the effort to create a political transition that leads to the end of the conflict but that's an open question but the only way to test the proposition is to actually engage with them and for them to hear all of the other countries that are pushing for political transition and to see what they are willing to do in terms of the influence that they have with the Assad regime."The US, Russia, Turkey and Saudi Arabia have already held one round of talks in Vienna last Friday.
In addition to Iran, Iraq, Egypt, Jordan, the United Arab Emirates, as well as diplomats56 from Britain, France and Germany have all been invited to join the new round of talks.
Germany Criticizes Austria over Migrant FlowGerman authorities criticized Austria on Wednesday for leaving large numbers of migrants and refugees at their borders, without coordinating57 with the German side.
Mayor of the German town of Wegscheid Josef Lamperstorfer expressed his frustration58 over the way Austria has handled the migrant flow.
"This is simply a mess to be honest, because the Austrians know full well that on our side of the border the refugees, the children, are left standing59 on the roadside, particularly since the bus drivers seem to have the order to immediately make everyone get off the bus and then return to Austria. "The mayor added that due to lack of information, some people were left at the border at night in freezing temperatures.
The town is only prepared to take in one thousand migrants a day. However, 4-thousand arrived on Monday alone.
Germany's federal police say the biggest challenge is to transfer the migrants " in a calm and dignified60 way."EU Countries Deploy61 Police to Slovenia over MigrationA small group of German police officers arrived in Slovenia on Wednesday, to help the country deal with an unprecedented62 migrant inflow.
Anna Elisabeth Prinz, German Ambassador to Slovenia, said the deployment63 of five German officers stemmed from a joint64 European effort.
"What we have to do is to cope with the situation right now jointly65 and we had now in Brussels a successful meeting with 17 points which we have to implement66, that's why the first policemen came today and others will come the next days from other European countries to join hands to have a secure situation."In addition to deploying67 its own army troops, Slovenia has formally requested assistance from the EU over the migrant influx68.
Austria sent 8 officers earlier this month, while officers from Hungary and Slovakia are scheduled to arrive soon.
Paul Ryan Nominated to Become Next Speaker of the US HouseRepublicans in the U.S. House of Representatives have nominated Paul Ryan, a Republican from the state of Wisconsin, to be the Speaker of the chamber69.
Ryan, 45, still needs to be elected Thursday in a full House vote. But his winning of the post Thursday is almost a certainty given the fact that the GOP is currently holding 247 out of the House's 435 seats.
To be elected as the Speaker of the House, Ryan would need at least 218 votes. If elected, Ryan will be one of the youngest speakers in American history.
Earlier this month, House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy abruptly70 dropped bid to replace outgoing Speaker John Boehner moments before House Republicans started voting for the party's nomination71 of a new speaker, thrusting House Republican leadership into frustration.
US Military Blimp Comes LooseA US military blimp came loose from its moorings in the Maryland on Wednesday. The aerostat then floated into Pennsylvania and hovered72 at around 4,800 meters.
Two fight jets followed the runaway73 craft, which landed several hours later in Montour County, Pennsylvania. The blimp is equipped with radar74 technology to detect missile attacks.
The blimp dragged its 3-thousand-meter cable behind and knocked out power for thousands.
Pennsylvania said it was monitoring the situation and discussing it with federal and state officials.
It was not immediately known how the blimp became detached at a US army facility.
Underwater Robot to Raise Awareness75 of Ocean ConservationAnchorUS developers have invented a wirelessly77 controlled low-cost robot that can potentially lead to advances in underwater research and help inform the public about the importance of ocean conservation.
CRI's Fu Yu reports.
ReporterIt started off as a treasure hunt.
The idea hit underwater drones developer Eric Stackpole when he found an article about the location of a pile of gold that has been missing for over 100 years.
His co-founder of their firm David Lang explained how Stackpole came to the decision.
"There was this story that there was a robbery and gold was thrown to the bottom of this underwater cave and all of these treasure hunters and scuba78 divers79, no one was able to get to the bottom, so Eric had this big idea that he was going to build this underwater robot to go explore."The company has been working on a waterproof80 smart phone with thrusters that can operate 100 meters underwater.
The device, called "Trident", sends real time videos, temperature, depth and directional information to the surface through a wireless76 buoy82.
The team also developed software that gives a better user experience when controlling the robot with virtual reality headsets via the internet.
Lang says the low-cost design is proving popular with the science community.
"Ocean science and exploration is really tragically83 underfunded and there are all sorts of people that are stuck in this post-docalypse who are trying to get the research done with very limited budgets and so this tool has become great for them."Lang says Trident's ultimate value is to educate people on the importance and fragility of the underwater ecosystem84.
"The most important thing and the first thing is that we have to get people to care and I think the way to do that is to allow them to engage. It is to give them the tools to actually explore themselves and to feel some sense of ownership in the process."While Lang and Stackpole have had no luck tracking down the gold that set them off on this scientific innovation, their new mission to open up the oceans to a curious public is worth more to them than any treasure in the world.

'Resembled Venice' in Dalian Starts Offering RidesAnchorA development project bearing a resemblance to the classical Italian city of Venice has started offering gondola85 rides in the northeast Chinese port city of Dalian.
CRI's Xie Cheng reports.
ReporterThe development project, named "East Montage", covering over 400 thousand square meters, has cost a total of 8 billion yuan, or 1.26 billion, U.S. dollars.
With a canal, European-style buildings, and frescoes86 reminiscent of renaissance-era Italy, the developer, Dalian East District Corporation, not only aims to build commercial real estate, but also a to build a landmark87 for Dalian city itself.
Zhang Juan, a local resident queuing up for a ride on the gondola, says the East Montage has already attracted a significant crowd of tourists as of late October.
"This is a good thing. This is an opportunity for people who could not go abroad to enjoy the same scenery as that in foreign countries, and expand their vision to learn more about foreign customs and practices. This is really good."Many tourists believe that east Montage has provided a pleasant blend of nature and classical occidental architecture.
According to Yan Wei, Vice81 General Manager of Dalian East, four kilometres of a Venetian-style canal have been constructed.
"We took architecture from Venice and France as blueprints88. We channelled sea water to the 4-kilometre-long canal to create what is for China an unprecedented kingdom on the ocean and architectural development complex. Proudly, our East Montage project, since the start of its construction, has made room for the capacity of an urban culture with iconic buildings."Yan said that the city is not a direct copy of a classical European city, but is a combination of western and local culture.
"Each building has its own prototype design. I'm not saying that we copied these designs, but we have integrated the maritime89 and regional cultures of Dalian together with its humanistic principles, and further expanding, innovating90, and improving them. It combines the western and Dalian's features, integrating Dalian's ideals and maritime culture."Most of the completed development in East Montage has already been sold, but plenty of the other unfinished buildings in the city are still up for sale.
Development projects such as East Montage are not uncommon91 across China. In 2007 Shanghai built its own "mini Paris" complete with a small scale Eiffel Tower, and a detailed92 building-by-building replica93 of an Austrian village was finished in southern Guangdong province in 2012.

Serious Problems Exist in China's Domestic Tourism Market: ReportA recent report released by China Consumers' Association, or CCA, suggests that several serious problems exist in China's domestic tourism market that may harm tourists' legitimate94 rights and interests.
The report comes following an investigation95 on 96 different tourism routes across the country from September to October.
Results show that serious problems have been found in 74 percent of those tourism routes, and the current tourism services are still not quite satisfactory.
Vice-director in charge of commodity and service supervision96 at the CCA Pi Xiaolin says those problems mainly exist in 6 aspects including catering97, accommodation, transportation, recreation, shopping and tour guides.
"We've found that a quarter of the tourist group meals are inconsistent with the contract, and over 30 percent of the meals are not sanitary98 enough. The environment of accommodation also needs further improvement. As for transportation, we've discovered that many overloaded99 vehicles have been applied100, which is against the rules."He adds that restrooms are often difficult to find in some of the overcrowded scenic101 spots with unacceptable environments or unsafe facilities.
The tourism market in China has seen tremendous growth for the past decade.
Last year, the tourism market in China saw some 3.6 billion tourist trips, bringing an income of over 3 trillion yuan, or some 477 billion U.S. dollars.

German Chancellor Merkel's Visit to China to Boost Bilateral TradeAnchorGerman Chancellor Angela Merkel is set to start her two-day visit to China today.
She is heading a delegation of nearly 20 executives representing the machinery121, auto122, electrical and telecommunications sectors124.
It is expected that Merkel's visit to China will once again drive forward the expansion of cooperation between the two sides.
Director of the Institute of European Studies at the China Institutes of Contemporary International Relations Feng Zhongping says that as China is still in the middle of its industrialization process and Germany is quite advanced in this regard, great opportunity exists for both countries.
"I think two countries can work a lot, for example, not only in the Chinese market. But also with Germany, China could cooperate closer in the industrial areas in a third country. Chinese companies and German companies can work together in African countries for example and East Asian countries. That would be a good chance for Germany, China and the third country."For more on the economic cooperation between China and Germany, we are now joined on the line by CRI's financial commentator125 Cao Can.
