Recently, the problem of North Korean Refugee had been highly issued. Many of the North Koreans who had escaped to China are sent back to North Korea, where they would receive severe torture, if caught by Chinese officials. Many of the human rights supporters are asking China to admit North Koreans as refugees, not intruders, and to protect them. South Korean Governments are recently making some steps to negotiate too. China, however, still maintains their first position: sending the trespassers to their home.
What do you think about the China's attitude toward North Korean issues?

After the recent presidential election in Russia, and the commanding winning of Putin, a group of opposition had posed that Mr. Putin had "unfairly benefited" from many of the situation factors.
Some of the people criticizes that it was rather a procedure than an election, for it was quiet obvious that Mr. Putin will win the election.
What do you think about Vladimir Putin's victory in Russian election?
