Myanmar: China Receives an Apology
http://www.nytimes.com/2015/04/03/world/asia/myanmar-china-receives-an-apology.html Version 0 of 1. Myanmar has apologized for a cross-border bombing last month in which four Chinese farmers were killed, China’s Foreign Ministry said Thursday. The bombing injected rare tensions into the generally good relationship between the neighbors. It came during an upsurge in fighting between government soldiers and ethnic Kokang rebels in Myanmar’s northeast, near the border with China. The fighting has killed hundreds of Myanmar soldiers and sent thousands of refugees fleeing into China. |
