Mexican troops cross U.S. border, hold Border Patrol agent at gunpoint
August 7, 2008 ¡P 1 Comment

Reuters | Aug 6, 2008


PHOENIX (Reuters) - Mexican soldiers briefly held a U.S. Border Patrol agent at gunpoint in a remote stretch of the Arizona desert after they mistakenly strayed north across the border, authorities said on Wednesday.


Tucson sector Border Patrol spokesman Mike Scioli said four Mexican soldiers wearing desert camouflage and carrying weapons confronted the agent early on Sunday morning as he patrolled a border road in the Tohono O¡¦Odham nation southwest of Tucson.


Scioli said the agent repeatedly identified himself in English and Spanish. After four minutes the soldiers lowered their weapons and crossed back in to Mexico on foot.


The stretch of desert is frequently crossed by human and drug smugglers from Mexico, and the border line in the area is not always clearly marked, Scioli said.


A spokesman for the U.S. State Department said the incursion had been brought to the attention of the Mexican government, and appeared to be accidental.


¡§Our understanding is that this encounter stemmed from a momentary misunderstanding as to the exact location of the U.S.-Mexican border,¡¨ Gonzalo Gallegos said.


¡§We recognize that occasional incidents such as this can and do occur. But we take the misunderstanding seriously, as does the Government of Mexico.¡¨


Incursions by Mexican military personnel into the United States over the nearly 2,000-mile (3,200-km) southwest border are not uncommon. Scioli said 42 incidents had been reported since October 1 last year.

South Korean police make an arrest in Seoul after demonstrations over moves to reinstate imports of US beef


Daily Mail | Aug 6, 2008


Riot police clad in body armour broke up anti-US demonstrations in Seoul sparked by the arrival of George Bush in South Korea.


The country has been rocked by months of mass demonstrations demanding that the government ditch a deal to reinstate imports of US beef.


The American president was hoping to revive what was once the third-largest foreign market for the US product, but anger in Seoul over the ¡§beef accord¡¨ triggered mass protests amid wider dissatisfaction with the country¡¦s conservative government.


Mr Bush¡¦s trip to Asia was taking him to Bangkok today and then to Beijing for the Olympic Games.


Addressing a news conference with South Korean president Lee Myung-bak, the US president told North Korea that it could share in South Korea¡¦s prosperity, but must stick to an agreement to end its nuclear weapons programme.
