The Kremlin wall, towers and cathedrals are reflected on a nameboard of state-owned oil company Rosneft's headquarters, Moscow, Thursday, Dec. 23, 2004. President Vladimir Putin on Thursday strongly defended the purchase of Yukos oil assets by a state-owned company, saying the state was protecting its interests in moving to get control of the one of the biggest production facilities in Russia. In an apparently secret deal, the state-owned Rosneft oil company bought BaikalFinansGroup, the obscure company that purchased Yukos' most important production unit in an auction Sunday. The Yuganskneftegaz subsidiary was sold for US$9.3 billion (euro7 billion), half of what foreign auditors say it was worth.

Chinese military officers depart from the Great Hall of the People where a plenary session of the National People's Congress was held in Beijing, China, Sunday, March 11, 2007. Anyone seeking a reminder of the People's Liberation Army's influence on Chinese politics need only look at the swaths of green-and-blue uniforms amid the sea of delegates to the national legislature. With a spectacular test of an anti-satellite weapon, the roll-out of a sophisticated jet fighter and talk of building an aircraft carrier, the Chinese military is raising eyebrows abroad and picking up support in China's corridors of power.
