China and North Korea finally open New Yalu River Bridge

China and North Korea have officially opened the New Yalu River Bridge, which links the two countries across the Yalu River near Dandong. The crossing had stood unfinished for roughly 12 years after construction stalled, making its opening a long-awaited step in cross-border connectivity and a possible sign of warming ties and expanded trade between Beijing and Pyongyang.

Why now: The bridge's opening ends a decade-long delay and signals potentially closer China-North Korea economic relations.
