Chinese premier Wen Jiabao wants Japan free boat captain

Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao urged Japan to release a detained Chinese boat captain. Wen Jiabao threatened further action against Japan if not it releases a Chinese sea captain.

Mr Wen insisted the urgent release of the captain who was arrested by Tokyo following a crash between his fishing boat and two Japanese patrol vessels near disputed islands.

The clash exploded on September 7 when the Chinese fishing trawler and Japanese coastguard vessels collided near the islands. China says it will not meet Japanese leaders at a United Nations summit in New York. "Bears full responsibility for the situation, and it will bear all consequences" said Mr Wen Jiabao.
