New North Korea-China bridge finally opens
Original: 7 news
A new bridge linking North Korea and China has officially opened, according to CNN. The crossing is expected to boost trade and travel between the two neighbours, but observers are questioning whether it could also give Pyongyang new channels to evade international sanctions imposed over its weapons programmes.
Why now: The bridge's opening has fresh geopolitical significance given ongoing sanctions on North Korea and its close ties with China.
