- Iran's supreme leader said Tuesday that 'no wise nation' would pursue nuclear weapons but his country will continue to develop its nuclear program for peaceful purposes. He also thought to say that 'no well-dressed nation', 'no smart nation' and 'no cool nation' would pursue nuclear weapons although Iran will continue to do so for peaceful purposes. He then realised what he said and slapped an aide.
- Chinese police dragged away more than 100 parents Tuesday while they were protesting the deaths of their children in poorly constructed schools that collapsed in last month's earthquake.

- Syria will allow in U.N. inspectors to probe allegations that a remote building destroyed in an Israeli airstrike was a nuclear reactor built secretly with North Korean help, the International Atomic Energy Agency said Monday.
