China has said it will not withdraw a bid to have papers on Japan's wartime atrocities included in UNESCO's Memory of the World program. On Tuesday, China submitted documents on Japan's sex slavery during the Second World War, as well as the Nanjing Massacre. Japan demanded that China withdraw its application. A demand that was firmly refused by China’s Foreign Ministry.

"The purpose of the application to register precious historical documents on wartime sex slavery and the Nanjing massacre is to remember history, cherish peace, defend human dignity and avert similar crimes against humanity from happening again. We certainly won’t accept Japan’s unreasonable representations. We will by no means withdraw the application.” Chinese foreign ministry spokeswoman Hua Chunying said.

The Foreign Ministry spokeswoman also commented on a new draft treaty by China and Russia. The joint draft was submitted to a UN-sponsored disarmament conference on banning the deployment of weapons in outer space. This is a revised version from the draft presented by the two countries in 2008. The revisions include changes to the definition and scope of the treaty, to organizations as well as mechanisms to solve disputes. The draft was presented Tuesday at a plenary session of the Conference on Disarmament, the world’s sole multilateral forum for disarmament negotiations in Geneva.

The new draft treaty is aimed at advancing the Conference toward negotiations for signing an international legal document. Hua Chunying says China has always advocated peace in outer space, and is opposed to its weaponization.
