Sorry friend,

I've tried that word. No result.
I've tried a chinese ("北京" beijing) and a japanese ("スポーツ" sport).
The chinese one works but the japanese one failed.
Than I've tried another word ("日本" japan), guess what, I got both chinese 
news and
japanese news. ("日本" means the same in chinese and japanese, they use the 
same
unicode).
And all the content of the news are english.

So, I think google news search api support english news only.

My os is win xp pro chinese version.

You can try this word ("Ελλάδα").
