Clinton Tours East Asia

Hillary Clinton has traveled to Asia this week to address some of the tensions in the region. Her first stop is Japan, where the Air Base controversy has caused quite an uproar among the Japaneses people. She will meet with the prime minister, Yukio Hatoyama, most likely to discuss a resolution to the base issue. She will also visit China and South Korea. South Korea has announced that they blame North Korea for the sinking of the Cheonan in March. North Korea has threatened to resign from their nonaggression agreement and respond harshly to the accusation.
