Japan, China in verbal war at U.N.

NEW YORK, United States - Li Baodong (L), Chinese ambassador to the United Nations, speaks at the U.N. General Assembly in New York on Sept. 27, 2012, as part of a verbal war between top officials from Japan and China. After Chinese Foreign Minister Yang Jiechi and Kazuo Kodama, the Japanese deputy ambassador to the United Nations, exchanged words over the sovereignty of a cluster of islands in the East China Sea, Li said in his subsequent rebuttal, "The recent so-called island purchase by the Japanese government is nothing different from money laundering."
