Policeman cleared in US town that 'targeted blacks'-AFP-By Robert MacPherson March 4, 2015 10:15 PM-YAHOONEWS

Washington (AFP) - The US Justice Department said it will not prosecute the white policeman who shot dead unarmed black teenager Michael Brown in Ferguson, but in a damning report found the local force systematically targeted African Americans.The fatal shooting in August in the St Louis suburb ignited nationwide outrage and shone a critical spotlight on relations between law enforcement and black Americans, with police tactics also coming in for strong criticism.The white officer, Darren Wilson, was also cleared in November by a grand jury which opted not to indict him for the death of the 18-year-old Brown, meaning the policeman is no longer facing legal action of any kind."Because Wilson did not act with the requisite criminal intent, it cannot be proven beyond reasonable doubt to a jury that he violated (Brown's civil rights) when he fired his weapon at Brown," the official report said."For the reasons set forth above, this matter lacks prosecutive merit and should be closed."The teenager's death -- on a residential street in a black-majority town with an overwhelmingly white police force -- prompted weeks of sometimes violent protests in Ferguson and beyond.Wilson told the St Louis County grand jury that he had shot Brown in self-defense on August 9 after the youth allegedly tried to get hold of his handgun.But others contended that Brown had his hands up in the air when the officer, who has since left the Ferguson police force, fatally opened fire.In a statement, Brown's family called Wednesday's decision "disappointing."But it added that it looked forward to seeing "true change" as a result of the Justice Department's expose of "racial bias and profiling" among Ferguson police."If that change happens, our son's death will not have been in vain," the Browns said.

- 'Searing report' -

In what Attorney General Eric Holder called a "searing report" into Ferguson's police department, the Justice Department said it found a widespread pattern of racial discrimination and multiple violations of citizens' constitutional rights.Police officers in the town of 21,000 regularly pulled over motorists without reasonable suspicion, carried out arrests without probable cause and used excessive force, it reported.While African Americans make up two-thirds of Ferguson's overall population, they accounted for 93 percent of arrests in 2012 through 2014.African Americans also accounted for 85 percent of people stopped by Ferguson police, 90 percent of citations issued and 88 percent of instances in which force was used.Ferguson's local judicial system also came under a harsh light, with the report finding that African Americans were 68 percent less likely than others to have their cases dismissed by a municipal judge.And the town itself was accused by Holder of using law enforcement as a means to boost revenues, rather than ensure public order."Once the system is primed for maximizing revenue –- starting with fines and fine enforcement -- the city relies on the police force to serve, essentially, as a collection agency for the municipal court," he said.While the Justice Department findings dwell on Ferguson, Holder said the concerns they raise "are not confined to any one city, state or geographic region."He said the federal government would continue to "engage" with the authorities in Ferguson and its neighboring communities to effect genuine reforms.Missouri Governor Jay Nixon called the report "deeply disturbing."And Ferguson's white mayor, James Knowles, said a police officer who had written racially charged emails had been dismissed."This type of behavior won't be tolerated," he said, adding: "We must do better not only in the city but in the state and the country. We must all work to address issues of racial disparity in all aspect of society."In a statement on Tuesday, human rights watchdog Amnesty International said the findings should prompt US President Barack Obama to set up a task force to come up with recommendations for criminal justice reform."The United States still has a long way to go before it has truly accountable policing," its US director Steven Hawkins said."This country's long history of racial profiling and other police abuses is only matched by its equally long history of inadequate accountability for those responsible."

Holder 'prepared' to disband Ferguson police-AFP-MAR 6,15-YAHOONEWS

Washington (AFP) - Attorney General Eric Holder warned Friday that he was prepared to dismantle the Ferguson police department after an official report unearthed damning evidence that officers in the St. Louis suburb targeted African Americans.The Justice Department also uncovered a cache of racist emails and proof of multiple rights violations in the Missouri town where a white policeman shot dead an unarmed black teenager on August 9, 2014, sparking civil unrest and a national outcry."We are prepared to use all the powers that we have, all the power that we have, to ensure that the situation changes there. That means everything from working with them to coming up with an entirely new structure," Holder said.Asked if that included taking apart the Ferguson force, he replied: "If that's what's necessary, we're prepared to do that."Holder said he was "shocked" by the official findings into practices in Ferguson, a majority black town with a mostly white police force, and had a warning for police departments across the United States."I hope they're listening to these comments and understand the intensity with which the feelings are felt at the federal government level to ensure that we use all the tools that we can to make sure that what happened in Ferguson is uncovered and simply does not happen in any other part of the country," he said.Separately, Barack Obama, the first black president of the US, said he believed the deep racism unearthed in the Ferguson force was not common, but could exist elsewhere in the country."I don't think that is typical of what happens across the country, but it's not an isolated incident," Obama told Sirius XM radio in an interview broadcast Friday."There are circumstances in which trust between communities and law enforcement have broken down," Obama added."Individuals or entire departments may not have the training or the accountability to make sure that they are protecting and serving all people and not just some."Despite what Holder has called a "searing report" into Ferguson's police department, the government will not prosecute the policeman, Darren Wilson, responsible for killing teenager Michael Brown.Brown's family are planning to sue in a civil case.The death prompted weeks of sometimes violent protests, and ignited a national debate about race relations and law enforcement in the United States.Obama convened a task force which issued almost 60 recommendations to police that are designed to rebuild trust.The measures include introducing external investigations "in cases of police use of force resulting in death, officer-involved shootings resulting in injury or death, or in-custody deaths."

03/ 6/2015-Francis addresses Neocatechumenals: The mission of the Church never stagnates-The Pope during the audience with members of the Neocatechumenal Way-In today’s audience with the Neocatechumenal Way founded by Kiki Arguello, the Pope confirmed their call and blessed their charism. "I’m doing that not because I’ve been paid to: No! I’m doing it because I want to,” the Pope joked-Iacopo Scaramuzzi

vatican city-“How much solitude, how much suffering, how much distance from God in the many peripheries of Europe and America, and in many cities of Asia!” The Pope said this during today’s audience with members of the Neocatechumenal Way in the Paul VI Hall. “I want to confirm your call, support your mission and bless your charism,” Francis said before cracking a joke (“I’m doing that not because I’ve been paid to: No! I’m doing it because I want to”). in reference to the missio ad gentes of the Neocatechumenal Way, Francis also underlined that “the Church has to move from a pastoral ministry of mere conservation to a decidedly missionary pastoral ministry” in order to prevent the “waters” “within the Church” from stagnating.Today, “I want to confirm your call, support your mission and bless your charism. I’m doing that not because I’ve been paid to: No!  (laughs) I’m doing it because I want to,” Francis said amid applause, before going on to bless priests and families about to set off on evangelisation missions. “You will go forth in the name of Christ into the world to bring His Gospel: Christ will precede, Christ will accompany and Christ will fulfil the salvation of which you are bearers!” Francis thanked the Way’s founders, Kiko Arguello and Carmen Hernandez who sat in the front row alongside Fr. Mario Pezzi and four cardinals (Vallini, Filoni, Rouco Varela and Cordes) “for the great benefit they bring to the Church through the Way”. “I always say,” the Pope added amid more applause, “that the Neocatechumenal Way does great good in the Church.  Missionary communities, the Pope recalled, “are formed by a priest and four or five families, with children including grown-up ones, and are a missio ad gentes, with a mandate to evangelize non-Christians. Non-Christians who’ve never heard about Jesus Christ and the many non-Christians who’ve forgotten who Jesus Christ was, who is Jesus Christ: baptized non-Christians but who have forgotten their faith because of secularization, worldliness and many other things. Re-awaken that faith!”  The Pope stressed that today’s world “badly needs this great message.” “How much solitude, how much suffering, how much distance from God in the many peripheries of Europe and America, and in many cities of Asia! Today, in every latitude, humanity greatly needs to hear that God loves us and that love is possible! These Christian communities, thanks to you missionary families, have the essential task of making this message visible. And what is this message? “Christ is risen, Christ lives. Christ lives amongst us”.”The Neocatechumenal Way, “a true gift of Providence to the Church of our time, as my predecessors have already stated,” the Pope stressed, referring in particular to John Paul II,  “is based on the three dimensions of the Church which are the Word, Liturgy and Community. So obedient and constant listening to the Word of God; the Eucharistic celebration in small community after the first Vespers of Sunday, the family celebration of lauds on Sunday with all the children gathered round and sharing their faith with other brothers and sisters are at the origin of the many gifts the Lord has given to you as well as the many vocations to the priesthood and consecrated life.”“On several occasions,” the Pope underlined, “I have insisted that the Church has to move from a pastoral ministry of mere conservation to a decidedly missionary pastoral ministry (cf. ibid., N. Evangelii gaudium, 15). How often, within the Church, do we keep Jesus inside and don’t  let him out. …. How often! This is the most important thing to do if we do not want the waters to stagnate within the Church.” The audience began with the traditional chants of the Neocatechumenal Way and an articulate speech by Kiko Arguello: “I hope to be brief…,” the Way’s founder started by saying. He then pointed out each national Neocatechumenal group present in the audience hall to the Pope. Kiko noted that there was also a rubber kangaroo popping out among the Australians. The Pope concluded the audience by blessing the community with 250 families setting out on missions.

03/ 6/2015-Bosnia-Herzegovina: Remains of the war-A woman visits a cemetery in Sarajevo-20 years after the end of the conflict, ethnic and religious divisions persist. On 6 June Francis will visit Sarajevo, the “Jerusalem of Europe”-Davide Demichelis

Rome-Miroslav may not know it but the history of Bosnia-Herzegovina is passing through his hands. Miroslav has the simple and pure features of a farmer. On his farm, which nestles somewhere in between the hills and wheat fields of the charming plateaus of Nevesinje, he produces a cheese that has a seven century-old history. Sack cheese, which is left to mature in sheepskin, was already being delivered to the people of Dubrovnik on the Adriatic coast and to Turkish chieftains in 1300. It crossed thousands of kilometres, reaching various regions of Eastern Europe: populations with a rich tapestry of histories, cultures and religions. The conflicts that broke out at the start of the 90’s in former Yugoslavia made this cheese vanish too. Today, some farmers, including Miroslav, have resuscitated this old tradition, putting their cheese on the tables of Serbians, Bosnians and Croats. Miroslav sells his product to Orthodox monasteries, Catholics in nearby Medjugorje and to the Imams of some mosques.When he visited Sarajevo in 1997, John Paul II wanted to draw attention to the history of “Europe’s Jerusalem”, a city which had just come out of a war. For centuries, the capital of Bosnia was a melting pot of different cultures and monotheistic religions, at the heart of the Balkans. Between 1991 and 1996, it was under siege by Serbian snipers and artillery; the longest period in modern military history. 20 years on, the signs of combat are still visible, even in the heart of the city. Many of the walls between Bar Tito and the Holiday Inn hotel where journalists stayed – the hotel overlooked the boulevard which sadly became known as “Sniper Alley” – still carry the visible scars of war.More than the buildings, it was the people who are still affected by the aftermath of the conflict: children, for example, particularly those that attend the 54 segregated local schools: Serbians on one side and Bosnians on the other. Despite being taught under the same roof, they attend separate classes and follow different curricula with different textbooks. This is especially true for one subject: history. Even the schooldays start and end at different times in order to prevent the risk of pupils from the two sides meeting. Bosnia-Herzegovina is a country of strong contrasts. Alongside the separate classroom mentality, stands shoulder to shoulder with the mentality of those in the country who are staunchly against it. Jovan Divjak, a former Bosnian general of Serbian origin who never abandoned his city, Sarajevo is promoting this mentality in order to defend the city against Serbian attacks. After the war, Divjak founded the “Obrazovanje gradi Bih” (Education builds Bosnia and Herzegovina) association. This association defends children’s right to an education, without making ethnic or religious distinctions. It took a former army general to fight against the two-schools-under-one-roof experience.It is not only schools that are affected by this ethnic-religious distinction. The effects of it are becoming increasingly felt in terms of the distribution of the city’s population. “My family used to live in this neighbourhood, but now they don’t recognise anyone,” Nela Lucic complains. Nela came back to her native Bugojno after 20 years away. Bugojno is a town with a population of 35,000 people, at the heart of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Today, the mosque is much bigger and there is now also an Islamic centre which didn’t exist before. Bosnians (Muslims), Serbians (Orthodox Christians) and Croats (Catholics) separated, forming groups in different parts of the country, based on ethnic-religious background.Each of the Federation’s public structures has three heads: one Serb, one Croat and one Bosnian. In every context, from the national government right down to the last municipality, democratic government rites must take into account with this tripartite power structure. Despite this, ethnic divisions are becoming increasingly marked and are affecting every aspect of daily life, even coffee: Serbians call it kafa, Croats call it kava and Bosnians call it kahva. And yet it’s the same coffee.Mostar, Bosnia-Herzegovina’s second major city is split in two, dividing the eastern (and predominantly Bosnian Muslim) part and the western part (Croatian Catholic). The bridge over the Neretva River used to connect the two parts of the city. But this 6-century-old jewel of Ottoman architecture was destroyed by the Bosnian Croat army on 9 November 1993. Reconstruction work on the Stari Most only began eleven years after the war had ended. Today people cross freely from one side to the other but 18-year-old Irina remembers how when she crossed the bridge for the first time wearing a cross around her neck, she was mocked and attacked by a group of young people from the other side. Her 50-year-old aunt has never once crossed the new bridge.In Srebrenica too, reconciliation seems far off. This small town on the border with Serbia was the scene of the biggest massacre of civilians in European history, after the World War II. Around 8,000 Bosnian civilians were massacred by the Serbo-Bosnian army led by General Ratko Mladic after 11 July 1995. The signs of that massacre remain: the mausoleum that is home to an endless row of white and green gravestones; the barns where Serbians segregated hundreds of people beneath the helpless gaze of Dutch UN forces. And yet this place that remains a symbol of the conflict’s madness is visited almost exclusively by young Bosnians.In the nearby city of Bratunac, just a few kilometres from the mausoleum, there is a cooperative which bears a powerful name: Together. It is made up of two buildings, where 28 people have found a job thanks to “Raspberries for peace”, a small but important initiative launched by 10 people in 2003. 500 people are now involved in this initiative. It is a symbol of a Bosnia-Herzegovina that wants to overcome historic divisions accentuated by war. A group of Muslim and Christian women have started producing jams.The “Together” cooperative is a rare flower. Many continued fleeing Srebrenica and Bratunac on the border with Serbia, even after the war. Since then, only 30% of Bosnians have returned. Those two buildings immersed in lush green surroundings guarantee an income to many war widows and are the symbol of a Bosnia-Herzegovina that is eager to overcome ethnic and religious divisions. This is the meeting point of different cultures and religions that Pope Francis wants to bring to Europe’s attention when he visits Sarajevo on 6 June.

3 Filipino health workers infected with MERS in Saudi Arabia-Associated Press-March 6, 2015 3:37 AM-YAHOONEWS

MANILA, Philippines (AP) — Three Filipinos have contracted Middle East respiratory syndrome while working at separate hospitals in Saudi Arabia, the Philippine government said Friday.Two are nurses and the third is a medical technician, said Department of Foreign Affairs spokesman Charles Jose. They are in the early stage of the infection after being exposed to MERS patients, Jose said.He said an emergency room nurse is isolated in staff housing and the other two in their respective hospitals.MERS was discovered in 2012 and the illnesses have been centered in the kingdom. It belongs to the family of coronaviruses that includes the common cold and SARS, and can cause fever, breathing problems, pneumonia and kidney failure.Jose said 10 Filipinos have died of MERS since 2013 — eight in Saudi Arabia and two in the United Arab Emirates. Hundreds of Filipinos work in hospitals and health care facilities in the kingdom.The Saudi Health Ministry last month reported that 385 people have died of MERS among 902 cases discovered in the kingdom.The Philippines has had one confirmed MERS case — a nurse who returned from Saudi Arabia last month and who has since recovered, Health Department spokesman Lyndon Lee Suy said.

Is the EU neighbourhood model still relevant? By Marc Pierini-euobserver
BRUSSELS, 6. Mar, 17:05-On 4 March, the EU’s neighbourhood commissioner and its foreign affairs chief issued a joint consultation paper titled “Towards a new European Neighbourhood Policy”, meant to trigger a debate with member states and other stakeholders on how to revive the EU’s decade-old neighborhood policy (ENP) - i.e. relations with countries spanning from Azerbaijan to Morocco and from Belarus to Egypt.The paper is long on questions (74 of them) about policy proposals but much shorter on strategic thinking.Yet, in 2014, the EU’s geographical environment took a sharp turn for the worse: in Crimea and eastern Ukraine, in Syria and Iraq, and in Libya.The political landscape across EU border regions has transformed radically and the east and south of Europe are undergoing even deeper political and societal changes than what meets the eye. Pre-existing EU assumptions about the neighborhood are now obsolete. From Russia, bullying and open hostility have become the new normal, while successive eastern Ukraine ceasefire “negotiations” have turned into tragic farces.Russia’s air force routinely challenges the integrity of Western European air space, while weekly Russian resupplies of Syrian leader Bashar alAssad’s forces are keeping the Damascus regime afloat, fuelling an unprecedented human tragedy.Through military actions, political rapprochements, and massive propaganda, Moscow is doing its utmost to drive a wedge between both EU and Nato member states. EU policies are directly challenged by Russia in Ukraine, Moldova, Armenia, Azerbaijan, and Georgia.Across Europe’s southern neighborhood, Islamic conservatism is becoming more deeply rooted than ever before, not just within Islamist parties but throughout entire societies, including those long perceived as predominantly “secular” and “modern” such as Tunisia and Turkey.Their societal, scientific, and legal norms, long-inspired by Europe’s, are now regularly challenged or reversed. A different concept of society and state is being introduced.There is also deep resentment across southern Europe toward the EU for its lack of influence on events in Palestine and Syria, and over the massive loss of life among irregular migrants in the Mediterranean Sea.In addition, the self-proclaimed caliphate of Daesh - with its territorial control, its military aptitude, its unimaginable violence, and its cultural revisionism - presents a challenge that no Western diplomacy has had to cope with before.These developments render the EU’s traditional model (liberal democracy) and methodology (personal high-level talks and financial incentives towards good governance) largely ineffectual. EU leaders are now suddenly confronted with situations in which they can no longer trust their intruding interlocutors (Putin); cannot be sure that their counterparts are able to talk openly (Moldova or the South Caucasus); cannot decently negotiate with (Assad); and cannot even conceive to interact with (al-Baghdadi).Elsewhere, as in Tunisia, the EU is now dealing with an unprecedented governing coalition between liberals (Nidaa Tounes) and Islamists (Ennahda) with radically diverging societal objectives.

What the EU should do

This eminently mobile - and often hostile - environment requires radical policy changes to the ENP. The EU should:- relinquish the “more for more” approach (more aid for more alignment on EU values), which is euro-centric and has become largely obsolete. While the EU should continue to defend and promote its fundamental values, it should take on board a lesson in humility: in Sidi Bouzid, Tahrir Square, or Maidan, citizens didn't wait for the EU to stand up for their freedoms.- be ready to adjust its policies swiftly and frequently in response to changing circumstances. There is no longer one set menu for all neighbors. Long-term trends concerning gender equality, science, economy and culture must be watched carefully and policies adjusted accordingly.- combine the promotion of EU values—where relevant—with a more assertive defense of EU interests. This means differentiating not only between countries depending on how EU interests are best served, but also, within countries, between governments and civil societies (as some governments become more authoritarian or unruly, civil society often remains the EU’s best investment in the future).- use the full array of instruments, from trade to financial support (humanitarian, socio-economic, civil society, Erasmus+, etc), from visa facilitation and readmission agreements to counter-terrorism cooperation and military operations, in an integrated manner.- better integrate EU policy vis-a-vis neighbors and its enlargement policy. Turkey, which is bordering the South Caucasus and the Islamic State, should be treated more strategically, combining the defense of EU interests (sealing the border with Daesh, counter-terrorism cooperation) with pragmatic advances where and when they are possible (trade, visa facilitation, Erasmus+).The comfortable days of dealing with like-minded liberal interlocutors are largely over: the “EU model” is becoming less sellable in today’s global environment and the EU brand of democracy and civilization is fundamentally challenged.It is high time to adjust to these new realities. Yes, the EU needs to continue promoting its values but should also defend its interests and watch long-term evolutions.Marc Pierini is a visiting scholar at Carnegie Europe and the EU's former envoy to Turkey.

EU to adapt its foreign policy to new realities, crises-Associated Press-March 4, 2015 7:34 AM-YAHOONEWS

BRUSSELS (AP) — The European Union is rethinking its foreign policy to better adapt to crises like the ones it faces in Ukraine, Russia and Syria without having to be overly dependent on allies like the United States.EU enlargement chief Johannes Hahn said Wednesday that "Europe should resolve its problems in its proximity, by itself, and not rely on partners or others."The plan is to revamp the bloc's so-called European Neighborhood Policy toward the countries that lie in an arc from Eastern Europe through the Middle East and around the Mediterranean basin to North Africa. Policy would be driven more by highlighting shared interests, focusing on those nations' needs and reacting faster to changing circumstances.The EU has been criticized as reacting slowly to new Russian policies under President Vladimir Putin.

ECB to begin €1 trillion stimulus next week By Benjamin Fox-euobserver

BRUSSELS, 5. Mar, 17:39-The European Central Bank will start buying government bonds from next week as it seeks to speed up the eurozone’s stalling economic recovery.The Frankfurt-based bank on Thursday (5 March) announced it would purchase €60 billion of bonds per month, with the programme set to run until September 2016.The decision to pump a total of €1.14 trillion into the eurozone economy was made in January.Prices across the eurozone have now fallen for three consecutive months, raising the likelihood of a prolonged period of deflation.ECB President Mario Draghi said the programme would remain until the bloc’s inflation rate is close to its 2 percent target rate.Quantitative easing (QE) involves central banks buying up government bonds to inject more money into the system - a path trodden in recent years by the US Federal Reserve and the Bank of England in response to the 2008-9 financial crisis. The ECB hopes that putting new money into the financial system will stimulate economic demand.Elsewhere, the ECB has raised its forecast for the eurozone economy’s growth rate to 1.5 percent for 2015, up from a 1 percent forecast in December last year.The programme will allow the ECB to buy government bonds, although Draghi told reporters that it would only buy bonds with negative yields if yields are not lower than the deposit rate. This would currently only exclude two-year German government bonds.“It looks as if at least the ECB is a strong believer in the positive economic impact of its own QE programme,” said ING chief economist Carsten Brzeski. The ECB’s was “much more upbeat than in previous months,” he added.Since the announcement in January, the euro has fallen to its lowest rate against the US dollar since September 2003 and lost 8 percent of its value against the UK pound.Meanwhile, the ECB increased its emergency lending facility to Greek banks by €500 million. Draghi told reporters that the ECB was prepared to make it easier for Greek lenders to access its funds once the Greek government returned to implementing the terms of its bailout programme."The lending to Greece today is 68 percent of the Greek GDP, which is the highest in the eurozone. In this sense one can really say that the ECB is the central bank of Greece," he said, adding that “the last thing one can say is that the ECB not supporting Greece".On the eve of the meeting, Draghi and the ECB board received an open letter from former shareholders in the Bank of Cyprus angry that the ECB has propped up Greek banks while allowing Cypriot lenders to collapse.The Mediterranean island’s second largest lender, Laiki bank, was wound up as part of the Cypriot bailout deal in 2013, while depositors to Laiki bank and the Bank of Cyprus were forced to incur losses of €4.2 billion.The ECB also kept its headline interest rate unchanged at 0.05 percent.

Pessimism ahead of key eurozone meeting on Greece By Eric Maurice-euobserver

BRUSSELS, 6. Mar, 18:33-Greece has outlined reforms and suggested another aid plan ahead of a meeting of eurozone ministers on Monday (6 March) but negotiations are set to be difficult.Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras set the tone on Friday in an interview with Germany's Der Spiegel."The thriller we saw before 20 February will return", warned the Greek leader, referring to last month's frantic attempts to get Athens and its creditors to reach preliminary agreement.Greek finance minister Yanis Varofakis sent a letter, seen by the Financial Times, to the president of the Eurogroup, Jeroen Dijsselbloem, outlining seven reform proposals ahead of Monday's meeting.These are meant to trigger a partial disbursement of the €7.2 billion loan prolongation agreed with the Eurogroup on 20 February.The letter details measures to improve Greece’s budget management, tax collecting and public administration, fight tax evasion, raise state revenues and address the country’s humanitarian crisis.It also suggests that both sides need to start looking at a new 'arrangement', to come after the end of the four-month prolongation of the current bailout."The Greek government believes that, very soon, the two sides ought to begin higher-level discussions regarding a ‘possible follow-up arrangement’," says the letter.This should take the form of a "contract for the recovery and growth of the Greek economy", it continues.The letter, however, was not sent to Eurozone member states representatives who met earlier this week.This means Greek demands will not have been discussed before the Eurogroup meeting on Monday, reducing the chances for a decision to unblock the money Athens is expecting."Technical discussions have not yet commenced", said an EU official Friday, adding that he was even less sure than before that they would start at the beginning of next week.The official noted that the disbursement would anyway only come after the EU Commission, the European central bank and the International Monetary Fund (creditors known collectively as 'the institutions') have evaluated all the Greek proposals. Discussions at political level will continue during the weekend to find some common ground and avoid a potentially disastrous new clash in Brussels.PM Tsipras reportedly called EU Commission president Jean-Claude Juncker for help and tried to arrange a meeting Friday.A meeting could take place next week although it was not clear Friday afternoon if it would take place before Monday.The Greek government said "the (Eurogroup) meeting will discuss how Greece will use European funds to address the humanitarian crisis and unemployment."Bank of Greece governor Yannis Stournaras warned that success at Monday's meeting was "crucial" for Greece.The country is due to disburse €6 billion in March for debt repayments.A first €310 million repayment to the IMF was done on Friday. But uncertainties remain on the true state of Greece’s finances."We have no information on the Greek government’s situation", said the EU source on Friday.In his Spiegel interview, Tsipras accused the European central bank of "still holding the rope we have around our necks".On Thursday night (5 March), the ECB refused to start accepting Greek state bonds as collateral for cash.Such a move would have allowed the ECB to buy Greek debt on secondary markets and give Greece some financial breathing space.At the same time, the ECB decided to increase by €500 million the limit of loans to Greek banks through the emergency liquidity assistance mechanism (ELA).In a move to raise cash on its own, the Greek government announced it will auction €1 billion of three-month treasury bills next Wednesday (11 March).In an almost similar move, it already raised €1.118 billion of six-month bills on Wednesday (4 March)-But there is speculation these amounts might not be enough to meet Greece’s needs.

Japan eyes MI6-style spy agency as it seeks to shed pacifist past-Reuters-By Linda Sieg and Nobuhiro Kubo March 6, 2015 2:48 AM-YAHOONEWS

TOKYO (Reuters) - Japan is looking into creating an overseas intelligence agency possibly modeled on Britain's MI6 spy service, ruling party lawmakers say, 70 years after Allied victors dismantled Japan's fearsome military intelligence apparatus following World War Two.A new foreign intelligence agency would be an integral part of a security framework Prime Minister Shinzo Abe is building as he seeks to loosen the post-war pacifist constitution's limits on the military's ability to operate overseas.The idea that Japan's fragmented intelligence community needs a makeover has also gained momentum since the killing of two Japanese captives by Islamic State militants in Syria earlier this year showed how much Tokyo relied on friendly countries for information.Abe has already set up a U.S.-style National Security Council and enacted strict state secrets legislation, and is now working on laws to lift a ban on exercising the right of collective self-defense, or militarily aiding an ally under attack."To become a 'normal country', an intelligence agency is vital," said Takushoku University professor Takashi Kawakami, using a phrase referring to shedding constitutional constraints that conservatives say limit Japan's ability to defend itself.Lawmakers in Abe's Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) hope to draft proposals in the autumn after visiting countries such as Britain, whose MI6 foreign intelligence service is a possible model.If the LDP and the government conclude a new agency is needed, legislation could be enacted next year, LDP lawmaker Takeshi Iwaya told Reuters in a recent interview."In an age when we don't know when or where Japanese lives will be at risk ... we need to collect more overseas information," said Iwaya, who heads a team studying the issue.Asked about the idea of a new spy agency in parliament recently, Abe said his government wanted to research the issue while working to bolster Japan's intelligence capabilities.

TURF BATTLES, WARTIME MEMORIES

Japan's existing intelligence community has about 4,400 personnel split into units under different ministries, but has been hampered by a reluctance to share secrets across bureaucratic lines, experts say.That reluctance to work closely stemmed partly from a lack of rules setting common standards for preventing leaks of classified information, a problem that has been eased by the state secrets law that took effect in December.Turf battles, however, persist, complicating the outlook for a new intelligence agency.The main actors in Japan's intelligence community are the National Police Agency (NPA), the Justice Ministry's Public Security Intelligence Agency (PSIA), the Defence Ministry's Defence Intelligence Headquarters, the Foreign Ministry, and the Cabinet Intelligence Research Office, whose staff come largely from other ministries."The NPA is very influential in the Abe government and Japanese bureaucracies," said one security expert."If a new agency was established, probably the NPA would take the initiative and the Foreign Ministry and PSIA wouldn't like that."The PSIA, with some 1,500 staff and whose main job is to monitor domestic subversive and extremist groups, could be a logical choice to form the core of a new agency, adding overseas counter-terrorism to its portfolio, some experts said.Bureaucratic rivalries aside, politicians may be wary of setting up a new agency given public memories of a wartime military intelligence apparatus that operated outside civilian control.Abe's support ratings slipped in 2013 after his ruling bloc enacted the state secrets act despite criticism it would muzzle the media and let officials hide misdeeds, and he is already pushing controversial changes to the scope for military actions.Attitudes, however, may have shifted after the killing of the two hostages, Iwaya said."It was a fact that we didn't have enough presence in the Middle East and had to rely mainly on foreign countries beginning with Jordan and Turkey," he said. "So the public has begun to think they want information gathering and analysis to be done properly."If the government decided to create a new agency, building an organization that could function as well as overseas counterparts would take decades. After unifying oversight of different forms of intelligence gathering, Japan would have to boost the number of agents, send them abroad and develop contacts on the ground, Kawakami said."That would be intelligence gathering, not clandestine activity," he said. "Even that would take at least 30 years."(Editing by Dean Yates)

Syria to West: Accept that Assad is here to stay-Reuters-By Samia Nakhoul and Louis Charbonneau-mar 6,15-yahoonews

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Syria's envoy to the United Nations says it's time for the United States and other Western powers to accept that President Bashar al-Assad is here to stay, and to abandon what he suggested was a failed strategy of trying to split the Middle East into sectarian enclaves.Speaking to Reuters on the eve of the fourth anniversary of the Syrian war, Assad's long-serving U.N. ambassador Bashar Ja'afari said his president was ready to work with the United States and others to combat terrorism in the Middle East."We don't want any vacuum in the country that would create chaos such as happened in Libya and Iraq and ... Afghanistan," he said. "President Assad can deliver because he is a strong president. He rules over a strong institution, which is the Syrian army. He has resisted pressure for four years.""He is the man who can deliver any solution," he added.Britain and France have rejected calls to restore ties with the Assad government. U.S. officials say there is no shift in their policy regarding Assad, even as their focus is fighting Islamic State, an al Qaeda offshoot which is also an enemy of Damascus."We have been open for cooperation (with the U.S.)," Ja’afari said. "They don't want it."Some European Union countries that withdrew their ambassadors from Syria are saying privately it is time for more communication with Damascus, diplomats said in February.
Diplomats say the calls have come from or would be supported by countries including Sweden, Denmark, Romania, Bulgaria, Austria and Spain, as well as the Czech Republic, which did not withdraw its ambassador. Norway and Switzerland, which are outside the EU, are also supportive.Such countries say that the threat from Islamic State has made Assad the lesser of two evils, seeing a need to re-engage with Damascus as a potential ally against the extremists, according to the diplomats.U.S. officials at the United Nations did not have an immediate comment on Ja'afari's latest statements.They noted recent comments to the Security Council by Washington's U.N. ambassador Samantha Power rejecting the argument that countries should partner with Damascus to more effectively fight extremists.The United States and other Western powers have condemned Assad for widespread human rights violations since the uprising against his government began in 2011.But Ja'afari insisted that keeping Assad, who was re-elected last year in a poll his foes regard as illegitimate, was the only path to peace and unity.   

"NOT A SYRIAN CONFLICT"

Ja'afari said that "many European delegations" had visited Damascus to ask for strengthened anti-terrorism cooperation, without specifying which countries."We are telling everyone ... if you want this cooperation to be fruitful you need to get back to Syria, to reopen your embassies."Indicating that Damascus wants Assad restored to international political legitimacy in exchange for security cooperation, Ja'afari said that "the benefit of such cooperation should be mutual ... not only unilateral."He blasted U.S. President Barack Obama's strategy of training and arming what he described as "so-called moderate" rebels, saying it had only served to deliver weapons into the hands of Islamic State.The training of rebels has proven difficult. The Hazzm movement was once central to a covert CIA operation to arm Syrian rebels, but the group's collapse last week underlined the failure of efforts to unify Arab and Western support for mainstream insurgents."This is not a Syrian conflict," Ja'afari said."It is an international terror war waged against the Syrian government and the Syrian people," he added, referring to the tens of thousands of foreign fighters who have joined Islamic State and other jihadist group in the country.(Editing by Stuart Grudgings)

Renzi seeks to end Putin's international isolation By Alvise Armellini-euobserver

Rome, 6. Mar, 07:51-Vladimir Putin should be enrolled in efforts to stabilise Libya, Syria, and Iraq – ending his Ukraine-related international isolation – provided that the Minsk ceasefire deal is fully respected, Italian prime minister Matteo Renzi said on a trip to Moscow on Thursday (5 March).Before meeting Italian businessmen active in Russia, prime minister Dmitry Medvedev and president Putin, a black-tied Renzi headed to a bridge near the Kremlin to pay tribute to slain opposition politician Boris Nemtsov, who was gunned down last Friday.He left six carnations at the scene, bound by a ribbon with the colours of Italy’s national flag: green, white, and red.Relations between Russia and the EU are at a historic low following Moscow’s annexation of Crimea and its support for anti-Ukrainian fighters in Donetsk and Lugansk. The two sides are locked in a sanctions war, and the EU has suspended bilateral summits with Putin, even if individual leaders from the bloc continue to meet him.Renzi said his visit was taking place against "a difficult backdrop, linked to the European sanctions and the Russian counter-sanctions, which are obviously a problem for both sides."Italy has suffered a record-length recession over the past three-and-a-half years, and EU-wide economic restrictions on trade with Russia, one of its primary export markets, have made it worse.Suggesting a path for renewed diplomatic co-operation, Renzi said it was crucial to enlist Russia’s help in fighting Islamic State in the Middle East and North Africa, starting from Libya, a former Italian colony which has descended into chaos and which has become the main transit country for Europe-bound sea migrants and refugees.“I think that it is key that Russia plays a decisive role on this field,” Renzi said."History has shown that without Russia it is a lot more complicated to find a balance [in international crises],” he added.

Expo 2015

In a symbolic gesture, Renzi also invited Putin to visit the Expo 2015 world fair to be hosted in Milan from May to October. The Russian president, who was already hosted in the northern Italian city in October for an Asia-Europe summit, is expected to visit again on 10 June, the Italian premier said.The two leaders took no questions from journalists, but only read statements. Earlier, Renzi spoke to Russian state media, including the Itar Tass news agency.In the interview, he stressed the need to “respect Ukraine’s sovereignty and restore the full control of the borders,” but also to guarantee “the autonomy” of the country’s eastern regions, which are home to many Russian speakers. Renzi suggested that Italy’s arrangement for its German-speaking region of South Tyrol could be a model.“We will see in the next weeks and months, as the path of constitutional reforms in Ukraine advances, if and how our contribution to this end could be useful,” he said.Putin said he agreed with Renzi that both sides in the Ukrainian conflict “must strictly comply with the agreements reached on 12 February, in Minsk," with the help of German chancellor Angela Merkel and French president Francois Hollande."I am sure it will open possibilities for a comprehensive peace settlement and establishing direct dialogue between Kiev, Donetsk and Lugansk," the Kremlin boss noted."The situation there, as you know, is still difficult but at least combat actions have stopped, people are no longer dying, settlements are no longer destroyed," he added.Putin also praised Italy as a “privileged partner” of Russia and said economic ties were “in a very good state” despite “losses related to well-known events” – a clear reference to the sanctions war.He also found time to compliment EU foreign policy chief Federica Mogherini, who previously served as Renzi’s foreign minister, ahead of her planned visit to Moscow.He hailed her as "a good representative of the Italian republic, and of Italian women."

U.S., France 'on same page' over Iran, want stronger deal-Reuters-By Arshad Mohammed and John Irish-mar 7,15-yahoonews

PARIS (Reuters) - The United States and France sought on Saturday to play down any disagreements over nuclear talks with Iran, saying they both agreed the accord now under discussion needed to be strengthened."We are on the same page," U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry told reporters after talks with French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius in Paris. "If we didn’t think that there was further to go, as Laurent said, we’d have had an agreement already," Kerry added."The reason we don’t have an agreement is, we believe there are gaps that have to be closed. There are things that have to be done to further strengthen this. We know this."The aim of the negotiations is to persuade Iran to restrain its nuclear program in exchange for relief from sanctions that have crippled its economy. Iran, a major oil exporter, wants the sanctions scrapped swiftly, the powers only in phases.France's Fabius said on Friday commitments offered by Iran in the nuclear talks with six world powers do not go far enough and more work needed to be done, notably on what he called "volume, checks and duration".On Saturday, he made clear that by volume he meant the number and quality of centrifuges Iran might be allowed to operate under any deal. By checks, he meant an inspection and verification regime to ensure Iran does not violate the deal."There is still work to be done," said Fabius, who was also hosting his British, German and EU counterparts in Paris.France, a U.N. Security Council veto-holder, has long held out for strict terms, linking any loosening of international sanctions on Iran's oil-based economy to commitments by Tehran to demonstrate that its nuclear work is as peaceful as it says.
The discovery in 2013 that the United States was holding secret talks with Iran was an opportunity for Paris, by saying 'no' to a deal, to assert itself internationally and to rebuke Washington for backing down on bombing Syria as punishment for using chemical arms.It also helped France cement new commercial ties with Gulf Arab states hostile to Iran.

"SOLID AGREEMENT" SOUGHT

"It is a multilateral negotiation, but we want to make sure that our positions are aired," said Fabius, who stressed several times the need for a "solid agreement".U.S. officials privately bristle at what they sometimes see as France’s effort to insert itself into the diplomacy on Iran and other issues. Some other diplomats close to the talks say Washington is rushing into a deal with Iran.From the outside, it appears as if the negotiations are fundamentally a U.S.-Iranian bilateral discussion, with the other nations briefed and brought in periodically.As well as the United States and France, the other world powers involved in the Iran negotiations are Britain, China, Germany and Russia.Kerry this week held three days of talks with his Iranian counterpart, Mohammad Javad Zarif.He plans to meet Zarif again on March 15 ahead of talks with all sides aimed at sealing some form of understanding by the end of March before a final deal in June."The next couple of weeks are crucial," said EU policy chief Federica Mogherini.(Editing by Gareth Jones)

LONDON (Reuters) - Two high-profile British charities have stopped funding Cage, a Muslim campaign group that has drawn criticism over statements about the Islamic State militant known as "Jihadi John", the regulator of British charities has announced.Cage was in contact several years ago with Kuwaiti-born Londoner Mohammed Emwazi, at a time when he was on the radar of Britain's intelligence services over signs of radicalization.Since Emwazi was identified on Feb. 26 as the man in a black balaclava who appears in Islamic State beheading videos, Cage members have said he was once a "beautiful young man" and have blamed the intelligence services for radicalizing him."Last week, public statements by Cage officials heightened concerns about the use of charitable funds to support their activities," the Charity Commission said in a statement late on Friday."In our view, those statements increased the threat to public trust and confidence in charity," it said, adding that it had taken "robust action" by requiring two well-known charities that had funded Cage to confirm they would no longer do so.The two organizations are the Joseph Rowntree Charitable Trust, a Quaker foundation, and the Roddick Foundation, set up by the late founder of the cosmetics retailer Body Shop. They had come under intense public scrutiny since Emwazi was named and Cage went public with their views about him.The commission said Joseph Rowntree had made grant awards to Cage of 305,000 pounds ($459,000) between 2007 and 2014, of which 271,250 pounds was paid, while the Roddick Foundation had made grant payments of 120,000 pounds between 2009 and 2012.The Joseph Rowntree Charitable Trust confirmed it had stopped funding Cage and would not do so in future, citing "regulatory pressure" and saying it wanted to protect the interests of other recipients of its funding and other work by the trust.The Roddick Foundation could not be immediately reached for comment.

RADICALIZED

Set up by a group of London Muslims to support British suspects being held by the United States in Guantanamo Bay, Cage says its aims are "to empower communities affected by the War on Terror and to highlight abuses of due process".In a statement responding to the Charity Commission's announcement, Cage thanked the Joseph Rowntree trust and the Roddick Foundation for their past support.Cage said the Charity Commission was pursuing a "neo-conservative" agenda. "This is just another manifestation of their objective of pursuing a Cold War on British Islam," it said.A wide range of public figures including Home Secretary Theresa May and London Mayor Boris Johnson have criticized Cage for suggesting that Emwazi's dealings with the intelligence services had radicalized him."The security services are trying to keep us safe," Johnson told Cage research director Asim Qureshi during a radio debate."They cannot conceivably be blamed for their actions in trying to prevent people from committing absolutely sick atrocities against the British public and indeed against innocent people in Syria and Iraq."If you are a human rights group funded by charity then you should be sticking up for the human rights of those who have been beheaded in Syria and in northern Iraq. That should be the focus of your concern."(Editing by Pravin Char)

UK police defend actions over teenage girls who flew to Syria-Reuters-mar 7,15-yahoonews

LONDON (Reuters) - British police on Saturday denied accusations that they had failed to pass on crucial information that could have allowed families to stop three teenage girls from traveling to Syria to join Islamic State militants.Shamima Begum and Amira Abase, both 15, and Kadiza Sultana, 16, who all attended the same London school, were reported missing on Feb. 17. They flew to Turkey that day and police believe they subsequently made their way to Syria.Dozens of Britons, mostly young men but also some young women, have joined Islamic State, causing much angst back home about how they were being radicalized and what could be done to stop them.Police officers had spoken to the girls in the weeks preceding their departure as part of an investigation into the disappearance of one of their school friends, an unnamed 15-year-old girl, who had left for Syria on Dec. 6."The teenagers were all being cooperative, they were all being treated as potential witnesses and there was nothing whatsoever to indicate that they themselves were planning to travel to Syria," the police said in a statement.Several relatives of the girls have complained to British media in the past two days that they had not been told about the first girl who had gone to Syria."The police neglected us, the school neglected us. It would have definitely alarmed me ... 100 percent I would have stopped her. They did not warn us, they did not contact us at all," Hussen Abase, father of Amira, told the Guardian newspaper.Relatives complained in particular that police had handed the girls letters, intended for their parents, requesting that the girls continue to cooperate with the investigation into their friend's departure for Syria.Instead of handing them to their parents, the three girls hid the letters in school textbooks. The letters were found after they had absconded."With the benefit of hindsight, we acknowledge that the letters could have been delivered direct to the parents. However, the parents were already aware ... that Girl 1 had traveled to Syria," the police said.They said that after an officer spoke to the girls at their school on Dec. 9, the deputy head teacher contacted their families on police advice to let them know what was going on.Investigations into the disappearance of all four girls are continuing.(Reporting by Estelle Shirbon; Editing by Gareth Jones)
