WORLD BRIEFLY Wednesday, January 10, 2018 North Korea to go to South Korea’s Olympics after talks SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — The rival Koreas moved toward easing their bitter animosity Tuesday during rare talks, with North Korea agreeing to take part in next month’s Winter Olympics in South Korea. The countries also agreed to hold more discussions on reducing tension along their border and to reopen a military hotline. The first meeting of its kind between the nations in about two years was arranged after North Korean leader Kim Jong Un made an abrupt push for improved ties with South Korea following a year of escalating tensions with the outside world over his expanding nuclear and missile programs. Critics say Kim may be trying to divide Seoul and Washington in a bid to weaken international pressure. In comments that appeared to back up those critical views, chief North Korean delegate Ri Son Gwon said his country’s nuclear weapons are aimed at the United States, not South Korea. He made the comments while complaining about what he called inaccurate South Korean media reports that he said talks dealt with North Korea’s nuclear disarmament.

Deneuve was among about 100 performers, scholars and others who signed an open letter published Tuesday by the newspaper Le Monde saying the “legitimate protest against sexual violence” stemming from the Harvey Weinstein scandal has gone too far and threatens Russia takes aim at U.S. over Syria attacks MOSCOW (AP) — Russia said Tuesday that a recent series Page 7A of drone attacks on its military bases in Syria would have required assistance from a country possessing satellite navigation technology — a statement that appeared to be aimed at the U.S. Russia’s Defense Ministry said its forces repelled a series of drone attacks Saturday on the Hemeimeem air base and a naval facility in Tartus, adding that out of the 13 drones involved, seven were shot down and six were forced to land without inflicting any damage. The ministry said data for the attacks could only have been obtained “from one of the countries that possesses know-how in satellite navigation.” PO BOX 1 • 101 Olson Rd • Boardman, OR 97818 • 541-481-3014 • email: info@boardmanchamber.org Boardman www.boardmanchamber.org Chamber of Commerce January Luncheon MONTHLY LUNCHEON Wednesday, January 17, 2018 Wednesday, 17, 2018 12:00 p.m. January - 1:00 p.m. Port of 12:00 Morrow Riverfront Center p.m. to 1:00 p.m. 2 Marine Drive, Boardman OR 97818 Port of Morrow Riverfront Center OUTLOOK “Proving dynamic, progressive, and diverse 2 Marine Drive supports to improve the well-being Boardman OR 97818 of our communities” BOARDMAN CHAMBER OF COMMERCE WOULD LIKE TO THANK EVERYONE THAT JOINED US IN WELCOMING IN THE HOLIDAY SEASON, THROUGHOUT DECEMBER.
