Debates over Beijing s derelict Old Summer Palace are about more than history

Debates over Beijing s derelict Old Summer Palace are about more than history CNN 2/14/2021 Paul French and Oscar Holland, CNN © Li He/Xinhua/GettyImages The Zhengjue Temple, one of the few parts of the Old Summer Palace to have undergone restoration. Northeast of Beijing s resplendent Summer Palace lie the ruins of another stately structure, burned to the ground by European forces during the Second Opium War. Once an elaborate network of pavilions, palaces, bridges and gardens, Yuanmingyuan The Garden of Perfect Brightness, known simply as the Old Summer Palace in English is now little more than collections of rubble amid a network of tranquil lakes. In 1860, Britain s High Commissioner to China, Lord Elgin, ordered troops to destroy both the Summer Palace and Old Summer Palace to avenge the killing of several British envoys to Beijing. By striking sites of cultural and imperial significance, Elgin wanted to chasten China.

U.S.-North Korea and inter-Korean peace talks launched in 2018 made unprecedented headway but quickly stalled, frustrating those seeking peace on the peninsula and raising fears of a return to risky escalations. A new report by leading activists has outlined a case for President Joe Biden to declare peace with North Korea, formally ending a war that ended informally with an armistice nearly 70 years ago. They argue that would set the stage for improved security and stability on the Korean Peninsula and the world beyond.

Some fans seemed surprised that the Florida resort had to clarify the mask-wearing rule. The policy is in line with the CDC, which says masks and distancing are still needed post-vaccine. Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando, Florida, on Friday updated its mask policy to specify that people who have gotten the COVID-19 vaccine are still required to wear them, the Orlando Sentinel reported.

A spat between the European Union and the British-Swedish pharmaceutical company AstraZeneca is threatening to hamper global vaccine efforts and raising tensions on the continent as European countries struggle to vaccinate their populations amid the threat of new, more virulent strains of the coronavirus. The EU purchased 400 million doses of the AstraZeneca vaccine, which the company made in partnership with Oxford University, in advance of it being approved by EU regulators. But last week, AstraZeneca abruptly announced that due to production issues it would only be able to deliver about 40 percent of the total promised in the first quarter, or about 31 million doses, to the EU.
