US Korean War vet arrives home after detention

U.S. tourist Merrill Newman arrives at Beijing airport Saturday, Dec. 7, 2013 after being released by North Korea. North Korea deported Newman who was detained for more than a month, apparently ending the saga of his return to the North six decades after he advised South Korean guerrillas still loathed by Pyongyang. North Korea made the decision because the 85-year-old Newman had apologized for his alleged crimes during the Korean War and because of his age and medical condition, according to the North's official Korean Central News Agency. (AP Photo/Kyodo News) JAPAN OUT, CREDIT MANDATORYSAN FRANCISCO (AP) — A tired but smiling 85-year-old veteran of the Korean War who was detained for several weeks in North Korea landed a free man Saturday at the San Francisco airport.

French, African troops try to halt C. African Republic killings

A French military vehicle patrols past Seleka soldiers during fighting between Muslim and Christian militias in BanguiBy Emmanuel Braun BANGUI (Reuters) - French soldiers were cheered on Saturday as they began patrolling densely-populated neighborhoods of Central African Republic's capital Bangui, which has been rocked by waves of killings between Muslim and Christian communities. Attacks on civilians in Bangui continued for a third day, aid workers said. France is deploying 1,600 troops to its former colony, where at least 300 people have died in three days of violence between the Seleka rebel group that seized power in March and Christian self-defence militias, which have spilled over into religious violence in the capital and beyond. Peter Bouckaert, Human Rights Watch's Emergency Director, said Seleka fighters burnt houses in Bossangoa, about 300 km (190 miles) north of Bangui, after French jets flew overhead.

Ukraine opposition: no talks unless govt fired

Pro-European Union activists shout slogans during a rally in the Independence Square in Kiev, Ukraine, Saturday, Dec. 7, 2013. As thousands of anti-government protesters kept their vigil in Ukraine's capital Saturday, officials sought to reduce their anger with assurances that Russian and Ukrainian presidents didn’t discuss Ukraine joining a Russian-led customs union at a meeting this week. (AP Photo/Efrem Lukatsky)KIEV, Ukraine (AP) — Ukraine's opposition, preparing for what it hopes will be a gigantic protest rally on Sunday, says it will negotiate with President Viktor Yanukovych only if he fires the government and appoints a new one committed to deepening European integration.
