> UN Secretary-General spokesperson Stephane Dujarric said China’s latest payment fully brought its regular-budget contributions up to date and helped address the UN’s ongoing liquidity crisis. China is the second-largest contributor, and 133 member states are now fully paid up. A planned US payment of $725 million would cover less than 20% of its arrears.
