LOSES patience with North Korea as Beijing tells Kim MOVE nuclear test site"},"content":{"rendered":"<h2 style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-size: 18pt\"><strong><span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color: #000000\">China LOSES patience with North Korea as Beijing tells Kim MOVE nuclear test site<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color: #000000\">It comes as North Korea has been ramping up its missile technology with regular rocket tests including its sixth nuclear bomb detonation which sparked a 6.3 magnitude earthquake last month.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color: #000000\">A Chinese scientist at Peking University has now warned that the Punggye-ri mountain range, where the Kim regime has conducted all of its nation\u2019s nuclear tests, could implode from the pressure.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color: #000000\">He said: \u201dChina cannot sit and wait until the site implodes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color: #000000\">&#8220;Maybe the North Koreans themselves have realised that the site cannot take another blow.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color: #000000\">\u201cIf they still want to do it, they have to do it somewhere else.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color: #000000\">The Beijing-physicist comments come after a delegation of Chinese scientists reportedly told North Korean officials their concerns about nuclear radiation leaking from the site which is 50 miles (80 km) from China&#8217;s border.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color: #000000\">The talks are said to have occurred in Beijing in late-September, but the Chinese foreign ministry has claimed that it did not have any knowledge about the discussions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color: #000000\">The Beijing-based physicist added that Chinese instruments &#8220;can detect nuclear fallout when it arrives, but it will be too late by then\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color: #000000\">He also warned &#8220;the fallout can spread to an entire hemisphere\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color: #000000\">China has been caught in the middle of a war of words between Kim Jong-un and Donald Trump as tensions escalate.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color: #000000\">Both leaders have threatened to totally destroy the other\u2019s nation, while pleading with China to remain allies.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color: #000000\">In August China demanded that North Korea halt its defiance of the United Nations nuclear weapons orders, but also issued a warning to the US.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color: #000000\">China&#8217;s foreign minister Wang Yi at the time said: \u201dWe call on all sides to take a responsible attitude when making judgements and taking actions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color: #000000\">\u201cEspecially we need to avoid further escalation of the situation.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color: #000000\">Then in September China conducted an explosive military drill with the nation\u2019s air force practising defence against a &#8220;surprise attack\u201d near the border between the two states.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color: #000000\">Chinese press boasted: \u201cThe troops rapid response capabilities and actual combat levels have effectively been tested.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color: #000000\">They also said new weapons, used to shoot down airborne missiles, were successfully tested for the first time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color: #000000\">Photos have have also emerged of new construction in China, which experts believe could be part of a contingency plan to invade North Korea or amass their huge army on their shared border amid World War 3 fears.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color: #000000\">Russia, whose officials follow similar sentiments to China, has previously criticised the US and North Korea for using the same warmongering threats.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color: #000000\">Speaking about the escalated tensions, Maria Zakharova, from the Russian foreign ministry, said: \u201cWe [the ministry] have repeatedly said that the situation is on edge.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color: #000000\">\u201cBut despite this, we hear both the rhetoric of Pyongyang and the statements coming every day from Washington.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color: #000000\">\u201cThe paradox is that they are identical. It is an open threat of use of force from both sides.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt\">Source:-\u00a0http:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/news\/world\/872218\/world-war-3-north-korea-kim-jong-un-donald-trump-usa-china-pyongyang-nuclear-threat-ww3<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"fb-background-color\">\n\t\t\t  <div \n\t\t\t  \tclass = \"fb-comments\" \n\t\t\t  \tdata-href = \"https:\/\/www.biphoo.com\/bipnews\/world-news\/china-loses-patience-with-north-korea-as-beijing-tells-kim-move-nuclear-test-site.html\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-numposts = \"10\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-lazy = \"true\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-colorscheme = \"light\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-order-by = \"social\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-mobile=true>\n\t\t\t  <\/div><\/div>\n\t\t  <style>\n\t\t    .fb-background-color {\n\t\t\t\tbackground: #ffffff !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t.fb_iframe_widget_fluid_desktop iframe {\n\t\t\t    width: 630px !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t  <\/style>\n\t\t  ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>China LOSES patience with North Korea as Beijing tells Kim MOVE nuclear test site It comes as North Korea has been ramping up its missile technology with regular rocket tests including its sixth nuclear bomb detonation which sparked a 6.3 magnitude earthquake last month.
