CNN —South Korean soccer star Son Jun-ho, who was detained in China for allegedly accepting bribes, has recently returned home, the country’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs said in a statement on Monday. The ministry has been communicating with the Chinese authorities through “various channels” and requested cooperation to “ensure a swift and fair process,” it said without giving details of the release. He has also represented South Korea’s men’s national team and reached the knockout stages of the World Cup in 2022 with the squad. Son became the first foreign soccer player to be investigated and detained since the CSL started in 2004, according to China’s state-run Global Times. His arrest was part of a broader initiative by Beijing to rid Chinese soccer of alleged corruption in the highest levels of the sport, during which the Communist Party’s anti-graft watchdog has been investigating a host of Chinese Football Association figures.

HONG KONG, Oct 25 (Reuters) - Shandong Taishan moved to the top of Group G of the Asian Champions League on Wednesday as Brazilian striker Cryzan and former Manchester United midfielder Marouane Fellaini scored in the second half to secure a 2-0 win over hosts Incheon United. Only the winners of each of the 10 groups in the Asian Champions League are certain to progress to the last 16, where they will be joined by the three runners-up from the eastern and western halves of the continent with the best records. Thailand's Bangkok United maintained their perfect start in Group F by coming from behind to beat Kitchee 2-1 in Hong Kong. Austria international Jakob Jantscher, a summer signing for the Hong Kong champions, gave Kitchee a seventh-minute lead but Rungrath Phumichantuk levelled four minutes into first half stoppage time. In Group H, first half goals from Alessandro Lopane and Jamie Maclaren saw Melbourne City secure a 2-0 win over Buriram United in Thailand to move onto seven points from three games.

CNN —South Korean soccer star Son Jun-ho has been arrested in China for allegedly accepting bribes as Beijing clamps down on alleged corruption in the upper ranks of Chinese football. A South Korean Foreign Ministry spokesperson said Tuesday the ministry was aware of Son’s situation and that local Korean diplomatic missions were providing consular assistance. Wang said China would provide South Korean officials with the “necessary facilitation” to perform their consular duties. The Korea Football Association (KFA) said it had written to the Chinese Football Association and the Asian Football Confederation regarding the player on Tuesday but had not yet heard back. Vice President Kim Jeong-bae was checking on Son’s condition with the South Korean Foreign and Sports Ministries, a KFA official told CNN.

În ciuda notificării alarmante din partea companiei franceze Framatome, administrația Biden consideră că instalația nu este încă la un „nivel de criză”, a spus una dintre surse. SUA au fost, de asemenea, în contact cu guvernul chinez, au spus oficialii americani, deși amploarea acestui contact este neclară. Framatome s-a adresat Statelor Unite pentru a obține o derogare care să le permită să ceară asistență tehnică americană pentru a rezolva problema la uzina chineză. Potrivit documentului, chinezii au crescut limitele de radiații, depășind standardele franceze, dar nu este clar dacă depășesc și limitele SUA. Autoritățile chineze nu au răspuns la solicitările CNN de a comenta situația.

Sursa foto: AFPSUA investighează o scurgere radioactivă de la o centrală nucleară din ChinaGuvernul Statelor Unite a petrecut ultima săptămână anchetând o posibilă scurgere radioactivă la o centrală nucleară din provincia chineză Guangdong, după ce o companie franceză care este implicată în operarea centralei nucleare a avertizat privind un „pericol radiologic iminent”, relatează CNN, care citează mai mulți oficiali americani și documente. Oficiali americani au stabilit că situația nu reprezintă un risc sporit de securitate pentru angajații de la centrală sau pentru restul populației. China a crescut ponderea în care folosește energia nucleară, care reprezintă aproximativ 5% din total. Centrala nucleară Taishan este un proiect de prestigiu după ce China a semnat un acord de producere a energiei nucleare cu Électricité de France, deținut în mare parte de guvernul francez. Construcția centralei a început în 2009, iar cele două unități au început să furnizeze energie în 2018 și 2019.
