| China warns against gloating |
| 2001-09-15 |
Apparently following Yasser Arafat's example, China's Propaganda Ministry issues an "urgent notice," "ordering the media, including Internet portals, not to publish anything that gloated about the attack or seemed to insult the United States," the Washington Post reports. The Post says anti-American remarks and expressions of support for the terrorism had surfaced on government-monitored Internet sited before the order was issued. The Post also notes that China is now denying reports in a Pakistani newspaper, the Frontier Post, and a state-run newspaper in Afghanistan that an agreement had been signed between China and the Taliban minister of mines. |
