This is called a "dialogue", that is, a voluntary 2 way discussion amongst equals. In this case it looks like America brought up specific issues of concern regarding China, and China did likewise re America. If two countries, each with a less than stellar human rights record, enter into such a process does that make them both hypocrites, and therefore they would be better to not enter into it at all?
Should only countries with perfect human right records be allowed to discuss other countries human rights situation? Who would be talking in that case?

Was it taken in another province? I recall the public facilities about half way between KM and Dali used to be particularly pungent in the hot summer months. Hopefully they'll be top of the list.

"Riots left 27 people dead early Wednesday in a remote town in northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, local authorities said.

The riots happened at around 6 a.m. in Lukqun township of Shanshan County in Turpan Prefecture.

Knife-wielding mobs attacked the township's police stations, the local government building and a construction site, stabbing at people and setting fire to police cars, officials with Xinjiang's regional committee of the Communist Party of China confirmed.

Seventeen people had been killed — including nine policemen or security guards and eight civilians — before police opened fire and shot dead 10 rioters, the officials said on condition of anonymity.

Three rioters were seized at the scene and police were chasing those who had fled, the officials said without clarifying how many were at large.

Three people were injured by the mobs and were being treated at a local hospital.

Police have launched an investigation."

Good to know you're not speculating $h.... If this is what happens when "you kill innocent people with drones" then why did similar events occur before the US deployed and used drones?

Why are you so sure its "drone- specific"?

Yeah, thank God nobody, least of all China, killed anyone in the name of Communism!
I'm actually in Urumqi, and lived here during the 2009 riot in which hundreds were slaughtered. If you had told me then "how good life is here in China" I wouldve choked on my kebab.

Hey liuming, am I too stupid to learn by living here, or does this not count as one of "these regions"?
