Exclusive: Pentagon evaluating U.S. West Coast missile defense sites - officials-[Reuters]-By Mike Stone-YAHOONEWS-December 3, 2017
SIMI VALLEY, Calif (Reuters) - The U.S. agency tasked with protecting the country from missile attacks is scouting the West Coast for places to deploy new anti-missile defenses, two Congressmen said on Saturday, as North Korea's missile tests raise concerns about how the United States would defend itself from an attack.West Coast defenses would likely include Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) anti-ballistic missiles, similar to those deployed in South Korea to protect against a potential North Korean attack.The accelerated pace of North Korea's ballistic missile testing program in 2017 and the likelihood the North Korean military could hit the U.S. mainland with a nuclear payload in the next few years has raised the pressure on the United States government to build-up missile defenses.On Wednesday, North Korea tested a new type of intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) that can fly over 13,000 km (8,080 miles), placing Washington within target range, South Korea said on Friday.Congressman Mike Rogers, who sits on the House Armed Services Committee and chairs the Strategic Forces Subcommittee which oversees missile defense, said the Missile Defense Agency (MDA), was aiming to install extra defenses at West Coast sites. The funding for the system does not appear in the 2018 defense budget plan indicating potential deployment is further off."It's just a matter of the location, and the MDA making a recommendation as to which site meets their criteria for location, but also the environmental impact," the Alabama Congressman and Republican told Reuters during an interview on the sidelines of the annual Reagan National Defense Forum in southern California.When asked about the plan, MDA Deputy Director Rear Admiral Jon Hill said in a statement: "The Missile Defense Agency has received no tasking to site the Terminal High Altitude Air Defense System on the West Coast."The MDA is a unit of the U.S. Defense Department.Congressman Rogers did not reveal the exact locations the agency is considering but said several sites are "competing" for the missile defense installations.Rogers and Congressman Adam Smith, a Democrat representing the 9th District of Washington, said the government was considering installing the THAAD anti-missile system made by aerospace giant Lockheed Martin Corp, at west coast sites.The Congressmen said the number of sites that may ultimately be deployed had yet to be determined.THAAD is a ground-based regional missile defense system designed to shoot down short-, medium- and intermediate-range ballistic missiles and takes only a matter of weeks to install.In addition to the two THAAD systems deployed in South Korea and Guam in the Pacific, the U.S. has seven other THAAD systems. While some of the existing missiles are based in Fort Bliss, Texas, the system is highly mobile and current locations are not disclosed.A Lockheed Martin representative declined to comment on specific THAAD deployments, but added that the company "is ready to support the Missile Defense Agency and the United States government in their ballistic missile defense efforts." He added that testing and deployment of assets is a government decision.In July, the United States tested THAAD missile defenses and shot down a simulated, incoming intermediate-range ballistic missile (IRBM). The successful test adds to the credibility of the U.S. military's missile defense program, which has come under intense scrutiny in recent years due in part to test delays and failures.Currently, the continental United States is primarily shielded by the Ground-based Midcourse Defense system (GMD) in Alaska and California as well as the Aegis system deployed aboard U.S. Navy ships. The THAAD system has a far higher testing success rate than the GMD.The MDA told Congress in June that it planned to deliver 52 more THAAD interceptors to the U.S. Army between October 2017 and September 2018, bringing total deliveries to 210 since May 2011.North Korea's latest missile test puts the U.S. capital within range, but Pyongyang still needs to prove it has mastered critical missile technology, such as re-entry, terminal stage guidance and warhead activation, South Korea said on Friday.(Reporting by Mike Stone in Simi Valley, Calif.; Editing by Chris Sanders, Michelle Price and Michael Perry)

Half of Britons support a second vote on Brexit, poll finds-[Reuters]-YAHOONEWS-December 3, 2017
LONDON (Reuters) - Half of Britons support a second vote on whether to leave the European Union and a third said they would be worse off financially outside the world's largest trading bloc, according to a new opinion poll.The poll, published in the Mail on Sunday newspaper, found 50 percent of people supported another vote on the final terms of Britain's exit deal, 34 percent rejected another referendum and 16 percent said they did not know.The newspaper said it was the first major opinion poll since last week's media reports that Britain is preparing to pay about 50 billion euros ($59 billion) to help to pave the way for talks on a future trade pact with the EU.The poll found 35 percent of those surveyed said they would be worse off financially after Brexit, while 14 percent said they would be better off.The online poll, carried out by research firm Survation, interviewed 1,003 adults in Britain between 30 November and 1 December.Mike Smithson, an election analyst who runs the www.politicalbetting.com website and a former Liberal Democrat politician, said on Twitter it was "the first time any pollster has recorded backing" for a second Brexit referendum.Since the referendum in 2016, high profile opponents of Britain’s exit - from French President Emmanuel Macron, to former British prime minister Tony Blair and billionaire investor George Soros - have suggested Britain could change its mind and avoid what they say will be disastrous for the British economy.Blair told the BBC on Sunday that Britain could change its mind about leaving the EU."It's reversible. It's not done until it's done," he said.Blair said what the government was seeking to negotiate was not possible."They are trying to negotiate getting out of the single market while recreating all of its benefits," Blair said. "That's not going to happen."Survation said it carries out polls for media organizations including the BBC, Sky News, the Daily Telegraph and the Guardian.(Reporting by Andrew MacAskill.

Russia warns Denmark on gas pipeline By Andrew Rettman-EUOBSERVER
BRUSSELS, 1. Dec, 19:08-Russia has warned Denmark that its Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline might bypass Danish waters, after a new law that increased uncertainty on permits.A spokesman for the Russian project told the country's state news agency Tass on Friday (1 December) that "due to the ongoing changes in the legislation and political disputes Nord Stream 2 decided to study alternative routes beyond the territorial waters of Denmark to reduce potential risks".The spokesman added that, for now, "we continue working according to our [original] plan and the request we filed and we are watching how the situation is developing".The spokesman also said that the project's backers - Russian gas company Gazprom and five energy firms from EU states - "required rule of law" to be upheld in Denmark in order to invest there.The warning came after Danish MPs passed a law on Thursday that allowed the foreign ministry to forbid construction if the pipeline harmed Danish strategic or security interests.Previous rules said the Danish energy and climate ministry could only block it on environmental grounds."Denmark is completely right to have concerns about Nord Stream 2, a Russian political project, a danger to European security, and a reversal of all the EU's good work on energy security," Anders Fogh Rasmussen, a former Danish PM and ex-Nato head who now works as a consultant for Ukraine, said.The new law enters into force on 1 January, but is to cover Nord Stream 2's application because the environment ministry has not yet issued its decision.The pipeline is to run through Finnish and Swedish economic zones and through Danish territorial waters south of the island of Bornholm in the Baltic Sea to Germany.If Russia moved the route north of the island into international waters it would see Danish port firms on Bornholm lose hundreds of millions of euros in potential income.Denmark was one of several EU states which asked the European Commission, earlier this year, to negotiate details of the project with Russia.It said at the time that it would be hard for individual member states to stand in its way if the EU did not get involved.The Finnish economic affairs ministry and the Swedish enterprise and innovation ministry are to issue their permit decisions later this year or in early 2018.The European Commission is concerned that Nord Stream 2 would harm EU energy security by concentrating 80 percent of Russian gas exports in a single route.It has also proposed a new law designed to stop Gazprom from using its monopoly on the pipeline to bully EU clients.Germany has a veto on letting the commission negotiate with Russia, however.Germany and other EU friends of Nord Stream 2 - Austria, France, the Netherlands, and the UK - could derail the proposed law.The Russian project also faces opposition in the US.-US sanctions-Heather Nauert, a State Department spokeswoman, said on Thursday: "It would pose security risks in an already tense Baltic Sea region".She added that it would "significantly increase Europe's vulnerability to a supply disruption" in EU states such as Poland.The US earlier this year threatened to impose fines on EU firms that invested in the pipeline.Speaking to press on Wednesday, John McCarrick, a senior US diplomat, said Nord Stream 2 construction "is not something we are going to assume is going to happen."But Russia is ploughing ahead with the project, which is to be completed by 2019.The spokesman for the Nord Stream 2 consortium told Tass on Friday it had already signed €4.5 billion of contracts with 600 construction companies from 23 countries.
Interview-Greenland prepares for Brexit - and possible independence By Eric Maurice-EUOBSERVER
BRUSSELS, 1. Dec, 15:29-Greenland is trying to adapt its economy and society to Brexit, climate change and possible independence from Denmark, one of its ministers told EUobserver."There will be a new way of more direct relations with potential partners and this also goes for the EU in the future," fisheries and hunting minister Karl-Kristian Kruse said in an interview.He said several ministers have made trips recently, including to China, "to seek foreign partners including investment partners".Greenland is an 'autonomous constituent country' within the kingdom of Denmark, but has not been part of the EU since 1985, after a local referendum three years earlier.Greenland's parliament recently adopted projects for three airports, and the main shipping company, Royal Arctic Line, has made agreements in order "to have a more global network".The objective, Kruse said, is that Greenland "can have more direct access and trade with other countries", avoiding that "all products and commodities come through Denmark".But the minister said that the search for economic partners was done in a "cautious manner"."It's not just a question of trying to get as much funding and investment, it has to be done in a way where we understand each other," he said."There has to be a certain understanding on common principles or ways to work."In recent years, Greenland has been coveted for its minerals, and the ruling Social Democrat Siumut party has often been considered as pro-mining, especially in the uranium sector.Kruse also noted that Greenland was "positioning itself as a player" in the Arctic, a region where Nordic countries, as well as Canada, Russia but also Asian countries are trying to increase their presence and influence.Kruse was in Brussels on Wednesday and Thursday (29-30 November) to present a 'QR code' (the matrix readable bar code on products) that is designed to facilitate the sales of seal skins in the EU.-Seal skins - Inuit exception-Seal skins are Greenland's second-biggest export behind fisheries, and trading them "means a lot to small communities", which depend on these revenues, the minister explained.Seal products were banned in the EU in 2010. But in 2015, the EU recognised that the "seal hunt is part of the socio-economy, culture and identity of the Inuit and other indigenous communities and [that] it contributes greatly to their subsistence and development".It was granted an "Inuit exception" that allowed again the sale of seal products in the EU.Some 34,000 skins were sold last year, compared to 160,000 before the ban."For the 2,100 professional hunters in Greenland, the income from the seal hunt is vital," according to a Greenland government document.The official paper explains that "the income from the seal hunt serves as a subsistence supplement to the barter economy still existing in small communities dispersed in Greenland"."Talks on seals have been going on for the last couple of years, and it's clear on this trip that there is an increased understanding over what we want to do," Kruse said, adding that he believed that "the European Commission can set [the scheme] in motion" soon.He said that the QR code was "a new way to get information out about the hunt and the sustainability of Inuit hunt."'We need to talk to the UK'-But relations between Greenland and the EU are still focused in fisheries, with negotiations currently under way."The EU has allocated quotas for Greenland fisheries zones and Greenland gets a financial compensation for that every year," Kruse explained.Under the current agreement, which runs until 2020, EU fishermen can capture species like capelin, halibut, cod or prawns, and the EU pays €16 million.Greenland, which the EU considers as an 'overseas country and territory', is able to export without tariffs to the UK."Trade with the UK is the most important elements in our fisheries policy," Kruse said.He added that "Brexit will have consequences on what we talk about within the fisheries agreement - how do we handle the changes within the EU"."We'll have to talk about whether or not some of these quotas [for EU fishermen] will go back to Greenland's fishermen or to EU fishermen," he said.He also noted that some fish species, like mackerel and herring, are seasonal and come to Greenland, "in some cases from UK waters"."It [then] becomes a question between Greenland and the UK," he said.He admitted that contrary to Iceland or the Faroe Islands - the second 'autonomous constituent country' within the kingdom of Denmark - Greenland has not started initial talks ahead of Brexit."We need to talk to the UK," he said.-Independence?-Greenland is also thinking over its own future, within or outside Denmark, and in relation to the EU.Since 2009, Greenland has been ruled under a self-government act agreed with the Danish government, which recognises its right to independence.In April this year, the autonomous government set up a seven-member constitutional commission tasked with drafting proposals to declare independence and establish a new state.It is due to hand over its draft within two years, but "it might take a bit longer," Kruse noted. "The government will wait for a formal request from the commission if they need more time."The minister said that any independence process "will go according to the self-government act," and that "the people will have the ultimate say".The act says that the "decision regarding Greenland's independence shall be taken by the people of Greenland" and that the process has to be agreed by Greenland's government and parliament and the Danish parliament.Kruse said that Greenland's economic projects were agreed with Copenhagen."There is a recognition from Denmark that Greenland has this right to, and to some extent must, pursue this path if one is to develop towards independence or at least a stronger self-sustainable economy," he said."Our biggest inspiration is Iceland," he said. "They had their constitutional process, and our [constitutional] commission has been to Iceland for an inspirational trip".Greenland will open a representation in Reykjavik next year, similar to the one it has in Brussels next door to Denmark's representation to the EU.Asked what he thought about Catalonia, a region were the government has tried to break away from an EU country, he said that his government "has not interfered on Catalonia".But he added: "We are free and open to cooperation with all other peoples who are willing to cooperate in a constructive and open manner."If Greenland became independent, Kruse said, the decision on whether to ask to join the EU would be made "at that time".A report is forthcoming about how to increase cooperation with the EU, and in which areas was recently presented to the parliament, and "this is what we are working on now," he said."It's not so much a question of 'membership' or 'not right now...'," he added, putting the emphasis more on the ongoing cooperation.He insisted that "this is ultimately a decision for the people of Greenland. If anything has to change fundamentally on the relation with the EU, the people has to be asked".'Less optimistic' on climate change-The thinking over the political and institutional future of Greenland goes on, as the face of the country itself is changing with climate change."Climate change has not so good consequences - and some that are not so bad," Kruse observed."In some regions, the old lifestyle needs to change. New opportunities emerge, but not always in the same regions," he said."Regions in the north and north-west are hit hard. The ice is getting thinner and you can no longer travel safely on it, then it becomes difficult to hunt and fish," said Kruse - himself a former fisherman.Meanwhile, "in the south and in the east, you see new fish species coming to our waters and new income [sources] presenting themselves"."For the country as a whole, it looks as the negative consequences are almost compensated by positive consequences. But regionally that is not distributed in an even fashion," he said."[The] experience for Greenlanders is that climate change goes up and down," he said."But we also know that changes are happening quite rapidly and severely. Knowing the effect CO2 has, we are a little less optimistic."
Opinion-Learning from Catalonia: to secede or not to secede By Steven Hill, Andrew Watt-EUOBSERVER
SAN FRANCISCO, DUSSELDORF, 1. Dec, 13:30-The standoff over Catalan independence from Spain has split not only the region and country, but Europe as a whole.That's because this issue raises a bigger question: when is it appropriate for a region of a larger geopolitical entity to secede? What criteria should be used to decide the legitimacy of a secession bid?Secession is a battle over the fundamental question of "who has the right to govern whom?".Two basic positions have gained prominence: 'choice' theory, which posits that there is a general right of secession that all polities are entitled to, as long as it is grounded in the will of the seceding majority; and 'just cause' theory, which says that any legitimate right to secession must be in response to an egregious injury or harm that has been committed against the seceding polity by the original ('mother') state.The various independence bids that occurred after 1989 when various polities exited the Soviet Union and Yugoslav Federation underscored that a just cause standard based on human rights violations enjoys widespread legitimacy.The independence bid of Kosovo, which has suffered human rights violations at the hands of Serbia, has gained support from 23 out of 28 EU, and 109 out of 193 United Nations, member states.-Catalonia's challenge-The case of Catalonia, however, lands politicians as well as political theorists in a cauldron of controversy.Catalonia also has its list of grievances, many of them culturally and historically rooted. But as in Scotland, few have argued that those grievances are sufficient to legitimise Catalonia's secession bid according to a just cause doctrine.There have not been any human rights violations, and Catalonia enjoys very substantial autonomy in the cultural, linguistic, educational and governance fields.The main substantive grievance is linked to the fact that Catalonia is one of Spain's wealthiest regions and, like wealthy regions in most federal states, contributes disproportionately to financing the Spanish budget.Lacking a clear-cut just cause legitimacy, Catalonia invoked a choice theory principle, based on a simple majority vote (in a low turnout election) of the seceding region.But should that be sufficient for providing legitimacy for an independence movement? What would be the consequences of permitting secession throughout Europe based on a choice theory principle? Under choice theory, even the most abhorrent reasons cannot be challenged, such as when the southern United States tried to secede in order to preserve the institution of slavery.Moreover, permitting the secession of wealthy regions on a simplistic choice theory principle poses a grave threat to redistributive mechanisms within nation states. The impact could be realised well before actual independence, as countries keen to keep the lid on an independence movement may reduce redistribution as a way of placating voters in wealthier regions.And given that EU member states can permanently block the accession of seceding regions, choice theory risks unraveling the EU, including its geographic continuity, as vetoed membership bids create non-EU states across the continent, like the holes in Swiss cheese.Moving forward: criteria for legitimate secession within the EU-Structured properly, a rational discourse about regional identities and economic, social and cultural interests could be a source of strength in the EU. It could help drain away much of the peril from the current fractious regional conflicts.The EU should design criteria for a rational and forward-looking foundation for secession of a region, just as it has created criteria for admitting new member states.It should make it clear that the overly-simplistic choice theory principle cannot serve as a basis for secession within the EU.However, the EU should offer new guidelines for a legitimate just cause secession process that can be initiated, even in the absence of human rights violations.One criterion might be when a dramatic change of relationship occurs between the originary state and the secessionist region.A real-world illustration would be Northern Ireland or Scotland seeking to secede from the UK following Brexit.When the UK exits the EU, it will drag the two regions (which both voted to remain) out of the EU.That will greatly affect the Scottish and northern Irish economies and their international relations (especially with the Republic of Ireland). The implications are arguably so severe as to constitute a legitimate point along the continuum of just causes.Additional criteria should be required, such as:The territory under consideration must have some significant historical, linguistic, cultural or other basis of cohesion and identity.The secessionist region must demonstrate a substantial and long-lasting (i.e. not merely temporary) majority in the territory concerned.This could involve a 55-60 percent voting threshold for passage in any referendum, indicating a decisive vote in support of a clear new direction; as well as a certain minimum voter turnout threshold in order for the referendum to be valid.The seceding territory must meet all the criteria for being an EU member state, including eventually joining the eurozone (as already required by EU law), and equal treatment of ethnic, linguistic or other population groups (including those opposed to secession).A just cause secession from a member state should not automatically lead to exclusion from the EU, or allow a permanent veto on membership held by the original country.Agreement between the breakaway region and the existing member state on a reasonable financial settlement regarding public debts, social security financing, and other previous financial commitments.Particularly in the case of wealthy breakaway regions, a valid independence claim should ensure that the state left behind does not suffer a dramatic loss of wealth and standing.At the same time, the EU should design mechanisms such that any increase in the number of member states resulting from secession ensures the continued effectiveness of federal decision-making.The EU needs to establish a rational basis for determining the legitimacy of secession bids. Secession of regions with a legitimate just cause claim should be difficult to enact, but not impossible.Steven Hill is a tech journalist and former Holtzbrinck fellow at American Academy in Berlin, Andrew Watt is deputy director of the Macroeconomic Policy Institute (IMK) in the Hans-Boeckler Foundation
After erroneous Flynn report, ABC News suspends Brian Ross-[The Canadian Press]-YAHOONEWS-December 3, 2017
NEW YORK — ABC News on Saturday suspended investigative reporter Brian Ross for four weeks without pay for his erroneous report on Michael Flynn, which it called a "serious error."Ross, citing an unnamed confidant of Flynn, the former national security adviser, had reported Friday that then-candidate Donald Trump had directed Flynn to make contact with the Russians. That would have been an explosive development in the ongoing investigation into whether the Trump campaign colluded with Russia to interfere in the election. But hours later, Ross clarified his report on the evening news, saying that his source now said Trump had done so not as a candidate, but as president-elect. At that point, he said, Trump had asked Flynn to contact the Russians about issues including working together to fight ISIS.ABC was widely criticized for merely clarifying and not correcting the report. It issued a correction later in the evening."We deeply regret and apologize for the serious error we made yesterday," the network said in a statement Saturday. "The reporting conveyed by Brian Ross during the special report had not been fully vetted through our editorial standards process. As a result of our continued reporting over the next several hours ultimately we determined the information was wrong and we corrected the mistake on air and online."It is vital we get the story right and retain the trust we have built with our audience — these are our core principles. We fell far short of that yesterday. Effective immediately, Brian Ross will be suspended for four weeks without pay."The news brought swift reaction from Trump, who tweeted: "Congratulations to @ABC News for suspending Brian Ross for his horrendously inaccurate and dishonest report on the Russia, Russia, Russia Witch Hunt. More Networks and "papers" should do the same with their Fake News!"As for Ross, who is ABC's chief investigative correspondent, he tweeted: "My job is to hold people accountable and that's why I agree with being held accountable myself."Ross, 69, joined the network in 1994. He has won a slew of journalism awards, including, according to his ABC bio, six George Polk awards, six Peabody awards and two Emmys, among others.He also, though, has drawn criticism for previous errors. In just one example, ABC had to apologize in 2012 when Ross reported on "Good Morning America" that James Holmes, the suspect in the movie theatre shooting in Aurora, Colorado, might be connected to the tea party, based on a name listed on a web page. It turned out to be a different "Jim Holmes." Ross was criticized for politicizing the story with the error.Journalism analyst Roy Peter Clark, senior scholar at the Poynter Institute, a non-profit journalism school based in Florida, noted that while reporting errors are always serious, the current media climate — in which the president is accusing mainstream outlets of purveying "fake news" — renders the stakes even higher."There has been a significant change in the political culture in the last two years," Clark said. "That change has had many consequences for the practice of journalism. When the president of the United States refers to the press collectively as an enemy of the people, the people who support that view will interpret certain acts of journalism as being evidence that the president is correct.""The problem," Clark added, "is that a mistake like this, even though it's ultimately corrected, and the reporter punished for it, feeds into a narrative that is now poisonous. When there is a clear mistake, it can be translated by folks who are attacking the press as bias. I think it's very important for journalists in this political culture to be more aggressive, and more cautious at the same time."Jocelyn Noveck, The Associated Press.

Quebec municipalities vying for one third of pot tax revenues-[CBC]-YAHOONEWS-December 3, 2017
Not one gram of legal cannabis has yet been sold in Quebec, but municipalities in the province are already clamouring for their share of tax revenues from its sale.Once pot is legal, as of July 2018, the Quebec government wants more than one half of the tax revenues generated by the sale of cannabis. Quebec municipalities want one third.Legalization will entail additional costs for municipalities, according to Alexandre Cusson, the new president of Quebec's union of municipalities (UMQ). Given that, he said, they should receive a proportional share of the proceeds."We think the adequate and equitable share would be one that gives a third of cannabis tax revenues to each level of government — federal, provincial and municipal," Cusson said Friday at a UMQ board meeting in Montreal.Police training, which could cost up to $10,000 per trained police officer according to Cusson, is just one of the costs related to pot legalization for municipalities.Legalization will also entail additional costs for urban planning, municipal courts and land use, he said.For Montreal Mayor ValĂ©rie Plante, law enforcement's preparedness is key."We need to make sure the police, the SPVM (Montreal police), among others, are able to manage the impacts [of cannabis legalization]," Plante said.Leases affected by pot legalization, UMQ says-Municipal housing regulations may also have to be adapted to deal with legalization, said Cusson, who is also the mayor of Drummondville.He gave an example: if cannabis were used in social housing where children were present, parents could be unhappy at having their children exposed to the substance. They may not be able to move elsewhere due to lack of funds."There are leases that have already been signed, and those leases do not refer to cannabis," he said.It's unclear if it will be possible to reopen these leases, or if the provincial and federal laws that will be adopted will cover these types of situations.These topics will be on the agenda on Tuesday, when the UMQ will address the subject during a parliamentary committee hearing in Quebec City.

Jordan begins diplomatic offensive ahead of Trump move on Jerusalem-[Reuters]-YAHOONEWS-December 3, 2017
AMMAN (Reuters) - Jordan has begun consultations on convening an emergency meeting of the Arab League and the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) before an expected move this week by U.S. President Donald Trump to recognize Jerusalem as Israel's capital, a senior Jordanian source said.A senior U.S. administration official said on Friday that Trump was likely to make the controversial declaration in a speech on Wednesday. Recognizing Jerusalem would upend decades of American policy and possibly inflame tensions in the Middle East.Jordan, the current president of the Arab summit, would invite members of the two bodies to convene if the recognition is extended, to "discuss ways of dealing with the consequences of such a decision that raised alarm and concern", the senior Jordanian diplomatic source told Reuters."It could ultimately hamper all efforts to get the peace process moving and holds a very high risk of provoking Arab and Muslim countries and Muslim communities in the West," said the diplomatic source, asking not to be named.King Abdullah's Hashemite dynasty is the custodian of the Muslim holy sites in Jerusalem, making Amman sensitive to any changes of status of the disputed city.Word of Trump’s planned announcement, which would deviate from previous U.S. presidents who have insisted the Jerusalem’s status must be decided in negotiations, drew criticism from the Palestinian Authority and was sure to anger the broader Arab world.The Palestinians want East Jerusalem as the capital of their future state, and the international community does not recognize Israel's claim on all of the city, home to sites holy to the Jewish, Muslim and Christian religions.Jordan lost East Jerusalem and the West Bank to Israel during the 1967 Arab-Israeli war and says the city's fate should only be decided only at the end of a final settlement."It is essential no unilateral decisions are made that would change the historic status quo of Jerusalem as an occupied city whose fate needs to be determined in final status talks within an overall peace package," the senior Jordanian diplomatic source added.(Reporting by Suleiman Al-Khalidi, editing by Larry King)
France's Macron calls on Iraq to dismantle all militias-[Reuters]-YAHOONEWS-December 3, 2017-By Michel Rose and Ahmed Aboulenein
PARIS/BAGHDAD (Reuters) - French President Emmanuel Macron on Saturday called on Iraq to dismantle all militias, including the government-sanctioned, Iran-backed Popular Mobilisation Forces (PMF), a rare public call to do so by a major Western leader.Macron's call, which followed a meeting with Iraqi Kurdish leaders in Paris, underscores the tough balancing act Baghdad has to perform between its allies in the war on Islamic State, Iran and Western powers, which do not see eye to eye."It is essential that there is a gradual demilitarisation, in particular of the Popular Mobilisation that established itself in the last few years in Iraq, and that all militias be gradually dismantled," he told a Paris news conference held with Iraqi Kurdish leaders.Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) authorities accuse the majority Arab Shi'ite PMF of widespread abuses against Kurds in Iraq's ethnically mixed regions.Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi's government denies that the PMF are engaged in a systematic pattern of abuses and has pledged to punish anyone proven guilty of violations.Disarming the PMF is seen as Abadi's most difficult test as his forces edge closer to declaring victory over Islamic State.In Baghdad, Abadi's office released a statement later saying he had spoken to Macron by phone and that the French president had affirmed his country's commitment to a unified Iraq. It made no mention of Macron's call to dismantle the militias.Iraqi Vice President Nuri al-Maliki, a former prime minister who was pressured to leave office by both the U.S. and Iran for failing to stop Islamic State, was more forceful.Macron, he said, was carrying out "unacceptable interference" in Iraq's internal affairs. "These positions from France are absolutely rejected and harm Iraq's sovereignty and its institutions," Maliki said in a statement.Macron's meeting with KRG Prime Minister Nechirvan Barzani and his deputy Qubad Talabani was the first high-profile international meeting for the Kurdish leadership after a Sept. 25 independence referendum.U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson and British Prime Minister Theresa May have both made trips to Iraq after the referendum but only met officials in Baghdad and made no visits to the KRG capital Erbil.Western powers had encouraged the Kurds not to hold the referendum and instead engage in dialogue with Baghdad.-'CONSTRUCTIVE DIALOGUE'-Macron again called for dialogue between the central government in Baghdad and the semi-autonomous KRG within the framework of the Iraqi constitution, saying he was convinced a "constructive dialogue" could lead to lifting Baghdad's restrictions on the Kurdish region.Kurds voted to break away from Iraq in the referendum, defying the government in Baghdad and alarming neighboring Turkey and Iran who have their own Kurdish minorities.The Iraqi government responded by seizing the Kurdish-held city of Kirkuk and other territory disputed between the Kurds and the central government.Long-serving Kurdish president Masoud Barzani stepped down over the affair and the regional government led by his nephew Nechirvan has tried to negotiate an end to the confrontation.The Kurdish prime minister said on Saturday he saw France playing a role to end the dispute with Baghdad and that his government respected a verdict by the Iraqi Supreme Federal Court ruling the referendum unconstitutional and its results void."With regards to the referendum, we are in a new era, and this issue is over and we have made our position in the Kurdistan Regional Government clear," Erbil-based broadcaster Rudaw quoted Barzani as saying.Macron called for the long-delayed implementation of Article 140 of the Iraqi constitution to settle the status of territories disputed between Baghdad and the Kurds.Article 140 provided for a referendum to be held by the end of 2007 in the oil region of Kirkuk and other territories claimed by both the KRG and the Iraqi government to determine whether their populations wanted to be part of the Kurdish region or not.No such referendum took place, among the reasons cited by the KRG to unilaterally hold its referendum on independence.(Reporting by Michel Rose in Paris and Ahmed Aboulenein in Baghdad; Writing by Ahmed Aboulenein; Editing by Ros Russell and Richard Balmforth)
Afghan official: Suicide bomber on motorbike kills 6 people-[The Canadian Press]-YAHOONEWS-December 3, 2017
KABUL — A suicide bomber riding on a motorcycle struck Sunday outside a soccer stadium in eastern Afghanistan, killing at least six people and wounding 13, an Afghan official said.Among those killed in the attack in Jalalabad, the capital of Nangarhar province, were a woman and a small child, according to Attahullah Khogyani, spokesman for the provincial governor.Khogyani said the attack took place shortly after a pro-government rally ended at the soccer stadium. The rally had been packed with supporters of the government of President Ashraf Ghani.No one immediately claimed responsibility for the attack in Nangarhar province.On Saturday, two intelligence service members, including the director of the Jalalabad intelligence department were killed, and 10 others, including both soldiers and civilians were wounded in multiple bomb attacks by Islamic State militants in Jalalabad.A local affiliate of the Islamic State group is seeking to expand its footprint in Afghanistan.The Associated Press.
6.0 earthquake hits Ecuador coast; no injuries reported-[The Canadian Press]-YAHOONEWS-December 3, 2017
QUITO, Ecuador — A magnitude 6.0 earthquake struck along the coast of Ecuador Sunday in the same area where a much stronger tremor left hundreds dead last year.President Lenin Moreno said there were no immediate reports of victims or major damage from the quake, which jolted many Ecuadoreans who were still in bed shortly after 6 a.m. (1100 GMT). It was felt in 12 provinces across the country.The U.S. Geological Survey said the quake, with a depth of 15.5 miles (25 kilometres ), was centred around the town of San Vicente.Authorities said that there wasn't a risk of a tsunami and appealed for calm.They also expressed optimism that Ecuadoreans were better prepared for a natural disaster after rebuilding from last year's magnitude 7.8 quake along the Pacific coast that left more than 600 people dead and thousands more injured and homeless."We've made some giant steps and are much more prepared than we were in the past," said Ricardo Penaherrera, a top official with Ecuador's agency for risk management, pointing out that authorities carried out an earthquake drill last week in the same area where Sunday's quake took place.He said authorities were still canvassing coastal areas for damage but that other than knocking out power in some rural areas there were no immediate reports of major damage.Fabricio Diaz, governor of Manabi province, said emergency dispatchers received just 38 phone calls, the majority from residents inquiring about the quake's epicenter rather than reporting damages. The province's ports, dams and major roadways were unaffected, he said.The Associated Press.
Remembering 1963 eruption, Bali's elderly wary of another-[The Canadian Press]-YAHOONEWS-December 3, 2017
KLUNGKUNG, Indonesia — Bali's glowering Mount Agung has seemingly quieted since hurling huge columns of ash from its crater a week ago, but some villagers on the Indonesian island who survived the catastrophic 1963 explosions believe a bigger eruption is coming.Ash plumes have dissipated in the past few days though an online seismogram from the mountain's monitoring post resembles a crazed abstract painting, indicating the tremendous forces churning within.Explosions from the smoking crater and tremors still rattle the surrounding region and authorities have maintained Agung's alert at the highest level. Its 1963 eruptions killed about 1,100 people."The situation now is almost the same," said Nengah Tresni, who was 12 when Agung erupted in 1963. She recalls being at one of the Hindu temples that dot the volcano's slopes and the sky suddenly turning dark as she left with her family."I'm sure there will be a big eruption. It is just a matter of time," said Tresni, who came with family members on Tuesday to an ageing sports centre that's serving as an evacuation camp after officials told them to leave their village."In the old eruption many people did not expect it to be big because there were small eruptions for a long time and villagers just went to the temple to pray," she said.It's the second time Tresni has fled to the camp since September, when the 3,140-meter (10,300-foot) volcano burst into life after more than half a century of inactivity. Officials lowered the volcano's alert level at the end of October and most of the 140,000 people who had evacuated returned home. It proved to be a brief respite."I actually didn't want to go back because I thought there would be big eruptions, but my family wanted to go home," she said. "And now we're refugees here again."Nyoman Siki from a village high on the volcano's slopes was 6 or 7 years old in 1963 and remembers it being said that 200 people from his area were killed. But he was philosophical about the situation. When people returned a year after the eruption, he said they were happy because it had renewed the fertility of the land."After years of cultivation, the volcano is just about to erupt again," he said.More than 55,000 people are living in shelters such as sports halls, temples and tent camps since officials expanded the no-go area around the volcano on Monday. Many centres appear well organized, but one visited by Associated Press reporters in Rendang district on Saturday was tightly packed and muddy from the frequent rains. Tourists who were stranded when the idyllic island's airport closed for nearly three days have rushed to leave.Nyoman Merta said that after the 1963 eruption, he and his family walked for three days from their village before authorities picked them up and took them to an evacuation camp."I was 9 years old but I can remember many people still stayed. There were no warnings like now and maybe that was why many people were killed then," he said.The family stayed in Denpasar in the south of Bali for a year. When they returned home, he said, their house was uninhabitable because of damage caused by the eruptions.He compared the recent months of escalating danger signs from Agung with 1963.Scientists agree the danger remains though making an exact prediction is difficult if not impossible."At all volcanoes we can expect fluctuations in activity. This does not mean that the threat is over," said Heather Handley, a volcanologist at Sydney's Macquarie University. "It is clearly still in an active phase."In the 1963 eruption, there were small ash explosions in February followed by a lava flow and then a large explosive eruption on March 17, she said. A second major eruption occurred two months later "so activity can stop and start again," said Handley.At the muddy Rendang camp, bare-chested 77-year-old Nyoman Arse remembered the 1963 disaster in great detail and was unperturbed by Agung's ash eruptions in the past week.Recalling events when he was 24, Arse said the mountain sent out ash for a month and then exploded about the same time as Galungan, an important religious celebration in majority Hindu Bali that in 1963 fell in mid-March."I saw the rocks coming down the mountain with a very loud noise," he said, imitating crashing sounds. "The rocks were huge," he said. "What's happening now is still nothing."Stephen Wright And Wayan Nambi, The Associated Press.
SIMI VALLEY, Calif (Reuters) - The U.S. agency tasked with protecting the country from missile attacks is scouting the West Coast for places to deploy new anti-missile defenses, two Congressmen said on Saturday, as North Korea's missile tests raise concerns about how the United States would defend itself from an attack.West Coast defenses would likely include Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) anti-ballistic missiles, similar to those deployed in South Korea to protect against a potential North Korean attack.The accelerated pace of North Korea's ballistic missile testing program in 2017 and the likelihood the North Korean military could hit the U.S. mainland with a nuclear payload in the next few years has raised the pressure on the United States government to build-up missile defenses.On Wednesday, North Korea tested a new type of intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) that can fly over 13,000 km (8,080 miles), placing Washington within target range, South Korea said on Friday.Congressman Mike Rogers, who sits on the House Armed Services Committee and chairs the Strategic Forces Subcommittee which oversees missile defense, said the Missile Defense Agency (MDA), was aiming to install extra defenses at West Coast sites. The funding for the system does not appear in the 2018 defense budget plan indicating potential deployment is further off."It's just a matter of the location, and the MDA making a recommendation as to which site meets their criteria for location, but also the environmental impact," the Alabama Congressman and Republican told Reuters during an interview on the sidelines of the annual Reagan National Defense Forum in southern California.When asked about the plan, MDA Deputy Director Rear Admiral Jon Hill said in a statement: "The Missile Defense Agency has received no tasking to site the Terminal High Altitude Air Defense System on the West Coast."The MDA is a unit of the U.S. Defense Department.Congressman Rogers did not reveal the exact locations the agency is considering but said several sites are "competing" for the missile defense installations.Rogers and Congressman Adam Smith, a Democrat representing the 9th District of Washington, said the government was considering installing the THAAD anti-missile system made by aerospace giant Lockheed Martin Corp, at west coast sites.The Congressmen said the number of sites that may ultimately be deployed had yet to be determined.THAAD is a ground-based regional missile defense system designed to shoot down short-, medium- and intermediate-range ballistic missiles and takes only a matter of weeks to install.In addition to the two THAAD systems deployed in South Korea and Guam in the Pacific, the U.S. has seven other THAAD systems. While some of the existing missiles are based in Fort Bliss, Texas, the system is highly mobile and current locations are not disclosed.A Lockheed Martin representative declined to comment on specific THAAD deployments, but added that the company "is ready to support the Missile Defense Agency and the United States government in their ballistic missile defense efforts." He added that testing and deployment of assets is a government decision.In July, the United States tested THAAD missile defenses and shot down a simulated, incoming intermediate-range ballistic missile (IRBM). The successful test adds to the credibility of the U.S. military's missile defense program, which has come under intense scrutiny in recent years due in part to test delays and failures.Currently, the continental United States is primarily shielded by the Ground-based Midcourse Defense system (GMD) in Alaska and California as well as the Aegis system deployed aboard U.S. Navy ships. The THAAD system has a far higher testing success rate than the GMD.The MDA told Congress in June that it planned to deliver 52 more THAAD interceptors to the U.S. Army between October 2017 and September 2018, bringing total deliveries to 210 since May 2011.North Korea's latest missile test puts the U.S. capital within range, but Pyongyang still needs to prove it has mastered critical missile technology, such as re-entry, terminal stage guidance and warhead activation, South Korea said on Friday.(Reporting by Mike Stone in Simi Valley, Calif.; Editing by Chris Sanders, Michelle Price and Michael Perry)

Half of Britons support a second vote on Brexit, poll finds-[Reuters]-YAHOONEWS-December 3, 2017
LONDON (Reuters) - Half of Britons support a second vote on whether to leave the European Union and a third said they would be worse off financially outside the world's largest trading bloc, according to a new opinion poll.The poll, published in the Mail on Sunday newspaper, found 50 percent of people supported another vote on the final terms of Britain's exit deal, 34 percent rejected another referendum and 16 percent said they did not know.The newspaper said it was the first major opinion poll since last week's media reports that Britain is preparing to pay about 50 billion euros ($59 billion) to help to pave the way for talks on a future trade pact with the EU.The poll found 35 percent of those surveyed said they would be worse off financially after Brexit, while 14 percent said they would be better off.The online poll, carried out by research firm Survation, interviewed 1,003 adults in Britain between 30 November and 1 December.Mike Smithson, an election analyst who runs the www.politicalbetting.com website and a former Liberal Democrat politician, said on Twitter it was "the first time any pollster has recorded backing" for a second Brexit referendum.Since the referendum in 2016, high profile opponents of Britain’s exit - from French President Emmanuel Macron, to former British prime minister Tony Blair and billionaire investor George Soros - have suggested Britain could change its mind and avoid what they say will be disastrous for the British economy.Blair told the BBC on Sunday that Britain could change its mind about leaving the EU."It's reversible. It's not done until it's done," he said.Blair said what the government was seeking to negotiate was not possible."They are trying to negotiate getting out of the single market while recreating all of its benefits," Blair said. "That's not going to happen."Survation said it carries out polls for media organizations including the BBC, Sky News, the Daily Telegraph and the Guardian.(Reporting by Andrew MacAskill.

Russia warns Denmark on gas pipeline By Andrew Rettman-EUOBSERVER
BRUSSELS, 1. Dec, 19:08-Russia has warned Denmark that its Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline might bypass Danish waters, after a new law that increased uncertainty on permits.A spokesman for the Russian project told the country's state news agency Tass on Friday (1 December) that "due to the ongoing changes in the legislation and political disputes Nord Stream 2 decided to study alternative routes beyond the territorial waters of Denmark to reduce potential risks".The spokesman added that, for now, "we continue working according to our [original] plan and the request we filed and we are watching how the situation is developing".The spokesman also said that the project's backers - Russian gas company Gazprom and five energy firms from EU states - "required rule of law" to be upheld in Denmark in order to invest there.The warning came after Danish MPs passed a law on Thursday that allowed the foreign ministry to forbid construction if the pipeline harmed Danish strategic or security interests.Previous rules said the Danish energy and climate ministry could only block it on environmental grounds."Denmark is completely right to have concerns about Nord Stream 2, a Russian political project, a danger to European security, and a reversal of all the EU's good work on energy security," Anders Fogh Rasmussen, a former Danish PM and ex-Nato head who now works as a consultant for Ukraine, said.The new law enters into force on 1 January, but is to cover Nord Stream 2's application because the environment ministry has not yet issued its decision.The pipeline is to run through Finnish and Swedish economic zones and through Danish territorial waters south of the island of Bornholm in the Baltic Sea to Germany.If Russia moved the route north of the island into international waters it would see Danish port firms on Bornholm lose hundreds of millions of euros in potential income.Denmark was one of several EU states which asked the European Commission, earlier this year, to negotiate details of the project with Russia.It said at the time that it would be hard for individual member states to stand in its way if the EU did not get involved.The Finnish economic affairs ministry and the Swedish enterprise and innovation ministry are to issue their permit decisions later this year or in early 2018.The European Commission is concerned that Nord Stream 2 would harm EU energy security by concentrating 80 percent of Russian gas exports in a single route.It has also proposed a new law designed to stop Gazprom from using its monopoly on the pipeline to bully EU clients.Germany has a veto on letting the commission negotiate with Russia, however.Germany and other EU friends of Nord Stream 2 - Austria, France, the Netherlands, and the UK - could derail the proposed law.The Russian project also faces opposition in the US.-US sanctions-Heather Nauert, a State Department spokeswoman, said on Thursday: "It would pose security risks in an already tense Baltic Sea region".She added that it would "significantly increase Europe's vulnerability to a supply disruption" in EU states such as Poland.The US earlier this year threatened to impose fines on EU firms that invested in the pipeline.Speaking to press on Wednesday, John McCarrick, a senior US diplomat, said Nord Stream 2 construction "is not something we are going to assume is going to happen."But Russia is ploughing ahead with the project, which is to be completed by 2019.The spokesman for the Nord Stream 2 consortium told Tass on Friday it had already signed €4.5 billion of contracts with 600 construction companies from 23 countries.
Interview-Greenland prepares for Brexit - and possible independence By Eric Maurice-EUOBSERVER
BRUSSELS, 1. Dec, 15:29-Greenland is trying to adapt its economy and society to Brexit, climate change and possible independence from Denmark, one of its ministers told EUobserver."There will be a new way of more direct relations with potential partners and this also goes for the EU in the future," fisheries and hunting minister Karl-Kristian Kruse said in an interview.He said several ministers have made trips recently, including to China, "to seek foreign partners including investment partners".Greenland is an 'autonomous constituent country' within the kingdom of Denmark, but has not been part of the EU since 1985, after a local referendum three years earlier.Greenland's parliament recently adopted projects for three airports, and the main shipping company, Royal Arctic Line, has made agreements in order "to have a more global network".The objective, Kruse said, is that Greenland "can have more direct access and trade with other countries", avoiding that "all products and commodities come through Denmark".But the minister said that the search for economic partners was done in a "cautious manner"."It's not just a question of trying to get as much funding and investment, it has to be done in a way where we understand each other," he said."There has to be a certain understanding on common principles or ways to work."In recent years, Greenland has been coveted for its minerals, and the ruling Social Democrat Siumut party has often been considered as pro-mining, especially in the uranium sector.Kruse also noted that Greenland was "positioning itself as a player" in the Arctic, a region where Nordic countries, as well as Canada, Russia but also Asian countries are trying to increase their presence and influence.Kruse was in Brussels on Wednesday and Thursday (29-30 November) to present a 'QR code' (the matrix readable bar code on products) that is designed to facilitate the sales of seal skins in the EU.-Seal skins - Inuit exception-Seal skins are Greenland's second-biggest export behind fisheries, and trading them "means a lot to small communities", which depend on these revenues, the minister explained.Seal products were banned in the EU in 2010. But in 2015, the EU recognised that the "seal hunt is part of the socio-economy, culture and identity of the Inuit and other indigenous communities and [that] it contributes greatly to their subsistence and development".It was granted an "Inuit exception" that allowed again the sale of seal products in the EU.Some 34,000 skins were sold last year, compared to 160,000 before the ban."For the 2,100 professional hunters in Greenland, the income from the seal hunt is vital," according to a Greenland government document.The official paper explains that "the income from the seal hunt serves as a subsistence supplement to the barter economy still existing in small communities dispersed in Greenland"."Talks on seals have been going on for the last couple of years, and it's clear on this trip that there is an increased understanding over what we want to do," Kruse said, adding that he believed that "the European Commission can set [the scheme] in motion" soon.He said that the QR code was "a new way to get information out about the hunt and the sustainability of Inuit hunt."'We need to talk to the UK'-But relations between Greenland and the EU are still focused in fisheries, with negotiations currently under way."The EU has allocated quotas for Greenland fisheries zones and Greenland gets a financial compensation for that every year," Kruse explained.Under the current agreement, which runs until 2020, EU fishermen can capture species like capelin, halibut, cod or prawns, and the EU pays €16 million.Greenland, which the EU considers as an 'overseas country and territory', is able to export without tariffs to the UK."Trade with the UK is the most important elements in our fisheries policy," Kruse said.He added that "Brexit will have consequences on what we talk about within the fisheries agreement - how do we handle the changes within the EU"."We'll have to talk about whether or not some of these quotas [for EU fishermen] will go back to Greenland's fishermen or to EU fishermen," he said.He also noted that some fish species, like mackerel and herring, are seasonal and come to Greenland, "in some cases from UK waters"."It [then] becomes a question between Greenland and the UK," he said.He admitted that contrary to Iceland or the Faroe Islands - the second 'autonomous constituent country' within the kingdom of Denmark - Greenland has not started initial talks ahead of Brexit."We need to talk to the UK," he said.-Independence?-Greenland is also thinking over its own future, within or outside Denmark, and in relation to the EU.Since 2009, Greenland has been ruled under a self-government act agreed with the Danish government, which recognises its right to independence.In April this year, the autonomous government set up a seven-member constitutional commission tasked with drafting proposals to declare independence and establish a new state.It is due to hand over its draft within two years, but "it might take a bit longer," Kruse noted. "The government will wait for a formal request from the commission if they need more time."The minister said that any independence process "will go according to the self-government act," and that "the people will have the ultimate say".The act says that the "decision regarding Greenland's independence shall be taken by the people of Greenland" and that the process has to be agreed by Greenland's government and parliament and the Danish parliament.Kruse said that Greenland's economic projects were agreed with Copenhagen."There is a recognition from Denmark that Greenland has this right to, and to some extent must, pursue this path if one is to develop towards independence or at least a stronger self-sustainable economy," he said."Our biggest inspiration is Iceland," he said. "They had their constitutional process, and our [constitutional] commission has been to Iceland for an inspirational trip".Greenland will open a representation in Reykjavik next year, similar to the one it has in Brussels next door to Denmark's representation to the EU.Asked what he thought about Catalonia, a region were the government has tried to break away from an EU country, he said that his government "has not interfered on Catalonia".But he added: "We are free and open to cooperation with all other peoples who are willing to cooperate in a constructive and open manner."If Greenland became independent, Kruse said, the decision on whether to ask to join the EU would be made "at that time".A report is forthcoming about how to increase cooperation with the EU, and in which areas was recently presented to the parliament, and "this is what we are working on now," he said."It's not so much a question of 'membership' or 'not right now...'," he added, putting the emphasis more on the ongoing cooperation.He insisted that "this is ultimately a decision for the people of Greenland. If anything has to change fundamentally on the relation with the EU, the people has to be asked".'Less optimistic' on climate change-The thinking over the political and institutional future of Greenland goes on, as the face of the country itself is changing with climate change."Climate change has not so good consequences - and some that are not so bad," Kruse observed."In some regions, the old lifestyle needs to change. New opportunities emerge, but not always in the same regions," he said."Regions in the north and north-west are hit hard. The ice is getting thinner and you can no longer travel safely on it, then it becomes difficult to hunt and fish," said Kruse - himself a former fisherman.Meanwhile, "in the south and in the east, you see new fish species coming to our waters and new income [sources] presenting themselves"."For the country as a whole, it looks as the negative consequences are almost compensated by positive consequences. But regionally that is not distributed in an even fashion," he said."[The] experience for Greenlanders is that climate change goes up and down," he said."But we also know that changes are happening quite rapidly and severely. Knowing the effect CO2 has, we are a little less optimistic."
Opinion-Learning from Catalonia: to secede or not to secede By Steven Hill, Andrew Watt-EUOBSERVER
SAN FRANCISCO, DUSSELDORF, 1. Dec, 13:30-The standoff over Catalan independence from Spain has split not only the region and country, but Europe as a whole.That's because this issue raises a bigger question: when is it appropriate for a region of a larger geopolitical entity to secede? What criteria should be used to decide the legitimacy of a secession bid?Secession is a battle over the fundamental question of "who has the right to govern whom?".Two basic positions have gained prominence: 'choice' theory, which posits that there is a general right of secession that all polities are entitled to, as long as it is grounded in the will of the seceding majority; and 'just cause' theory, which says that any legitimate right to secession must be in response to an egregious injury or harm that has been committed against the seceding polity by the original ('mother') state.The various independence bids that occurred after 1989 when various polities exited the Soviet Union and Yugoslav Federation underscored that a just cause standard based on human rights violations enjoys widespread legitimacy.The independence bid of Kosovo, which has suffered human rights violations at the hands of Serbia, has gained support from 23 out of 28 EU, and 109 out of 193 United Nations, member states.-Catalonia's challenge-The case of Catalonia, however, lands politicians as well as political theorists in a cauldron of controversy.Catalonia also has its list of grievances, many of them culturally and historically rooted. But as in Scotland, few have argued that those grievances are sufficient to legitimise Catalonia's secession bid according to a just cause doctrine.There have not been any human rights violations, and Catalonia enjoys very substantial autonomy in the cultural, linguistic, educational and governance fields.The main substantive grievance is linked to the fact that Catalonia is one of Spain's wealthiest regions and, like wealthy regions in most federal states, contributes disproportionately to financing the Spanish budget.Lacking a clear-cut just cause legitimacy, Catalonia invoked a choice theory principle, based on a simple majority vote (in a low turnout election) of the seceding region.But should that be sufficient for providing legitimacy for an independence movement? What would be the consequences of permitting secession throughout Europe based on a choice theory principle? Under choice theory, even the most abhorrent reasons cannot be challenged, such as when the southern United States tried to secede in order to preserve the institution of slavery.Moreover, permitting the secession of wealthy regions on a simplistic choice theory principle poses a grave threat to redistributive mechanisms within nation states. The impact could be realised well before actual independence, as countries keen to keep the lid on an independence movement may reduce redistribution as a way of placating voters in wealthier regions.And given that EU member states can permanently block the accession of seceding regions, choice theory risks unraveling the EU, including its geographic continuity, as vetoed membership bids create non-EU states across the continent, like the holes in Swiss cheese.Moving forward: criteria for legitimate secession within the EU-Structured properly, a rational discourse about regional identities and economic, social and cultural interests could be a source of strength in the EU. It could help drain away much of the peril from the current fractious regional conflicts.The EU should design criteria for a rational and forward-looking foundation for secession of a region, just as it has created criteria for admitting new member states.It should make it clear that the overly-simplistic choice theory principle cannot serve as a basis for secession within the EU.However, the EU should offer new guidelines for a legitimate just cause secession process that can be initiated, even in the absence of human rights violations.One criterion might be when a dramatic change of relationship occurs between the originary state and the secessionist region.A real-world illustration would be Northern Ireland or Scotland seeking to secede from the UK following Brexit.When the UK exits the EU, it will drag the two regions (which both voted to remain) out of the EU.That will greatly affect the Scottish and northern Irish economies and their international relations (especially with the Republic of Ireland). The implications are arguably so severe as to constitute a legitimate point along the continuum of just causes.Additional criteria should be required, such as:The territory under consideration must have some significant historical, linguistic, cultural or other basis of cohesion and identity.The secessionist region must demonstrate a substantial and long-lasting (i.e. not merely temporary) majority in the territory concerned.This could involve a 55-60 percent voting threshold for passage in any referendum, indicating a decisive vote in support of a clear new direction; as well as a certain minimum voter turnout threshold in order for the referendum to be valid.The seceding territory must meet all the criteria for being an EU member state, including eventually joining the eurozone (as already required by EU law), and equal treatment of ethnic, linguistic or other population groups (including those opposed to secession).A just cause secession from a member state should not automatically lead to exclusion from the EU, or allow a permanent veto on membership held by the original country.Agreement between the breakaway region and the existing member state on a reasonable financial settlement regarding public debts, social security financing, and other previous financial commitments.Particularly in the case of wealthy breakaway regions, a valid independence claim should ensure that the state left behind does not suffer a dramatic loss of wealth and standing.At the same time, the EU should design mechanisms such that any increase in the number of member states resulting from secession ensures the continued effectiveness of federal decision-making.The EU needs to establish a rational basis for determining the legitimacy of secession bids. Secession of regions with a legitimate just cause claim should be difficult to enact, but not impossible.Steven Hill is a tech journalist and former Holtzbrinck fellow at American Academy in Berlin, Andrew Watt is deputy director of the Macroeconomic Policy Institute (IMK) in the Hans-Boeckler Foundation
After erroneous Flynn report, ABC News suspends Brian Ross-[The Canadian Press]-YAHOONEWS-December 3, 2017
NEW YORK — ABC News on Saturday suspended investigative reporter Brian Ross for four weeks without pay for his erroneous report on Michael Flynn, which it called a "serious error."Ross, citing an unnamed confidant of Flynn, the former national security adviser, had reported Friday that then-candidate Donald Trump had directed Flynn to make contact with the Russians. That would have been an explosive development in the ongoing investigation into whether the Trump campaign colluded with Russia to interfere in the election. But hours later, Ross clarified his report on the evening news, saying that his source now said Trump had done so not as a candidate, but as president-elect. At that point, he said, Trump had asked Flynn to contact the Russians about issues including working together to fight ISIS.ABC was widely criticized for merely clarifying and not correcting the report. It issued a correction later in the evening."We deeply regret and apologize for the serious error we made yesterday," the network said in a statement Saturday. "The reporting conveyed by Brian Ross during the special report had not been fully vetted through our editorial standards process. As a result of our continued reporting over the next several hours ultimately we determined the information was wrong and we corrected the mistake on air and online."It is vital we get the story right and retain the trust we have built with our audience — these are our core principles. We fell far short of that yesterday. Effective immediately, Brian Ross will be suspended for four weeks without pay."The news brought swift reaction from Trump, who tweeted: "Congratulations to @ABC News for suspending Brian Ross for his horrendously inaccurate and dishonest report on the Russia, Russia, Russia Witch Hunt. More Networks and "papers" should do the same with their Fake News!"As for Ross, who is ABC's chief investigative correspondent, he tweeted: "My job is to hold people accountable and that's why I agree with being held accountable myself."Ross, 69, joined the network in 1994. He has won a slew of journalism awards, including, according to his ABC bio, six George Polk awards, six Peabody awards and two Emmys, among others.He also, though, has drawn criticism for previous errors. In just one example, ABC had to apologize in 2012 when Ross reported on "Good Morning America" that James Holmes, the suspect in the movie theatre shooting in Aurora, Colorado, might be connected to the tea party, based on a name listed on a web page. It turned out to be a different "Jim Holmes." Ross was criticized for politicizing the story with the error.Journalism analyst Roy Peter Clark, senior scholar at the Poynter Institute, a non-profit journalism school based in Florida, noted that while reporting errors are always serious, the current media climate — in which the president is accusing mainstream outlets of purveying "fake news" — renders the stakes even higher."There has been a significant change in the political culture in the last two years," Clark said. "That change has had many consequences for the practice of journalism. When the president of the United States refers to the press collectively as an enemy of the people, the people who support that view will interpret certain acts of journalism as being evidence that the president is correct.""The problem," Clark added, "is that a mistake like this, even though it's ultimately corrected, and the reporter punished for it, feeds into a narrative that is now poisonous. When there is a clear mistake, it can be translated by folks who are attacking the press as bias. I think it's very important for journalists in this political culture to be more aggressive, and more cautious at the same time."Jocelyn Noveck, The Associated Press.

Quebec municipalities vying for one third of pot tax revenues-[CBC]-YAHOONEWS-December 3, 2017
Not one gram of legal cannabis has yet been sold in Quebec, but municipalities in the province are already clamouring for their share of tax revenues from its sale.Once pot is legal, as of July 2018, the Quebec government wants more than one half of the tax revenues generated by the sale of cannabis. Quebec municipalities want one third.Legalization will entail additional costs for municipalities, according to Alexandre Cusson, the new president of Quebec's union of municipalities (UMQ). Given that, he said, they should receive a proportional share of the proceeds."We think the adequate and equitable share would be one that gives a third of cannabis tax revenues to each level of government — federal, provincial and municipal," Cusson said Friday at a UMQ board meeting in Montreal.Police training, which could cost up to $10,000 per trained police officer according to Cusson, is just one of the costs related to pot legalization for municipalities.Legalization will also entail additional costs for urban planning, municipal courts and land use, he said.For Montreal Mayor ValĂ©rie Plante, law enforcement's preparedness is key."We need to make sure the police, the SPVM (Montreal police), among others, are able to manage the impacts [of cannabis legalization]," Plante said.Leases affected by pot legalization, UMQ says-Municipal housing regulations may also have to be adapted to deal with legalization, said Cusson, who is also the mayor of Drummondville.He gave an example: if cannabis were used in social housing where children were present, parents could be unhappy at having their children exposed to the substance. They may not be able to move elsewhere due to lack of funds."There are leases that have already been signed, and those leases do not refer to cannabis," he said.It's unclear if it will be possible to reopen these leases, or if the provincial and federal laws that will be adopted will cover these types of situations.These topics will be on the agenda on Tuesday, when the UMQ will address the subject during a parliamentary committee hearing in Quebec City.

Jordan begins diplomatic offensive ahead of Trump move on Jerusalem-[Reuters]-YAHOONEWS-December 3, 2017
AMMAN (Reuters) - Jordan has begun consultations on convening an emergency meeting of the Arab League and the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) before an expected move this week by U.S. President Donald Trump to recognize Jerusalem as Israel's capital, a senior Jordanian source said.A senior U.S. administration official said on Friday that Trump was likely to make the controversial declaration in a speech on Wednesday. Recognizing Jerusalem would upend decades of American policy and possibly inflame tensions in the Middle East.Jordan, the current president of the Arab summit, would invite members of the two bodies to convene if the recognition is extended, to "discuss ways of dealing with the consequences of such a decision that raised alarm and concern", the senior Jordanian diplomatic source told Reuters."It could ultimately hamper all efforts to get the peace process moving and holds a very high risk of provoking Arab and Muslim countries and Muslim communities in the West," said the diplomatic source, asking not to be named.King Abdullah's Hashemite dynasty is the custodian of the Muslim holy sites in Jerusalem, making Amman sensitive to any changes of status of the disputed city.Word of Trump’s planned announcement, which would deviate from previous U.S. presidents who have insisted the Jerusalem’s status must be decided in negotiations, drew criticism from the Palestinian Authority and was sure to anger the broader Arab world.The Palestinians want East Jerusalem as the capital of their future state, and the international community does not recognize Israel's claim on all of the city, home to sites holy to the Jewish, Muslim and Christian religions.Jordan lost East Jerusalem and the West Bank to Israel during the 1967 Arab-Israeli war and says the city's fate should only be decided only at the end of a final settlement."It is essential no unilateral decisions are made that would change the historic status quo of Jerusalem as an occupied city whose fate needs to be determined in final status talks within an overall peace package," the senior Jordanian diplomatic source added.(Reporting by Suleiman Al-Khalidi, editing by Larry King)
France's Macron calls on Iraq to dismantle all militias-[Reuters]-YAHOONEWS-December 3, 2017-By Michel Rose and Ahmed Aboulenein
PARIS/BAGHDAD (Reuters) - French President Emmanuel Macron on Saturday called on Iraq to dismantle all militias, including the government-sanctioned, Iran-backed Popular Mobilisation Forces (PMF), a rare public call to do so by a major Western leader.Macron's call, which followed a meeting with Iraqi Kurdish leaders in Paris, underscores the tough balancing act Baghdad has to perform between its allies in the war on Islamic State, Iran and Western powers, which do not see eye to eye."It is essential that there is a gradual demilitarisation, in particular of the Popular Mobilisation that established itself in the last few years in Iraq, and that all militias be gradually dismantled," he told a Paris news conference held with Iraqi Kurdish leaders.Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) authorities accuse the majority Arab Shi'ite PMF of widespread abuses against Kurds in Iraq's ethnically mixed regions.Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi's government denies that the PMF are engaged in a systematic pattern of abuses and has pledged to punish anyone proven guilty of violations.Disarming the PMF is seen as Abadi's most difficult test as his forces edge closer to declaring victory over Islamic State.In Baghdad, Abadi's office released a statement later saying he had spoken to Macron by phone and that the French president had affirmed his country's commitment to a unified Iraq. It made no mention of Macron's call to dismantle the militias.Iraqi Vice President Nuri al-Maliki, a former prime minister who was pressured to leave office by both the U.S. and Iran for failing to stop Islamic State, was more forceful.Macron, he said, was carrying out "unacceptable interference" in Iraq's internal affairs. "These positions from France are absolutely rejected and harm Iraq's sovereignty and its institutions," Maliki said in a statement.Macron's meeting with KRG Prime Minister Nechirvan Barzani and his deputy Qubad Talabani was the first high-profile international meeting for the Kurdish leadership after a Sept. 25 independence referendum.U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson and British Prime Minister Theresa May have both made trips to Iraq after the referendum but only met officials in Baghdad and made no visits to the KRG capital Erbil.Western powers had encouraged the Kurds not to hold the referendum and instead engage in dialogue with Baghdad.-'CONSTRUCTIVE DIALOGUE'-Macron again called for dialogue between the central government in Baghdad and the semi-autonomous KRG within the framework of the Iraqi constitution, saying he was convinced a "constructive dialogue" could lead to lifting Baghdad's restrictions on the Kurdish region.Kurds voted to break away from Iraq in the referendum, defying the government in Baghdad and alarming neighboring Turkey and Iran who have their own Kurdish minorities.The Iraqi government responded by seizing the Kurdish-held city of Kirkuk and other territory disputed between the Kurds and the central government.Long-serving Kurdish president Masoud Barzani stepped down over the affair and the regional government led by his nephew Nechirvan has tried to negotiate an end to the confrontation.The Kurdish prime minister said on Saturday he saw France playing a role to end the dispute with Baghdad and that his government respected a verdict by the Iraqi Supreme Federal Court ruling the referendum unconstitutional and its results void."With regards to the referendum, we are in a new era, and this issue is over and we have made our position in the Kurdistan Regional Government clear," Erbil-based broadcaster Rudaw quoted Barzani as saying.Macron called for the long-delayed implementation of Article 140 of the Iraqi constitution to settle the status of territories disputed between Baghdad and the Kurds.Article 140 provided for a referendum to be held by the end of 2007 in the oil region of Kirkuk and other territories claimed by both the KRG and the Iraqi government to determine whether their populations wanted to be part of the Kurdish region or not.No such referendum took place, among the reasons cited by the KRG to unilaterally hold its referendum on independence.(Reporting by Michel Rose in Paris and Ahmed Aboulenein in Baghdad; Writing by Ahmed Aboulenein; Editing by Ros Russell and Richard Balmforth)
Afghan official: Suicide bomber on motorbike kills 6 people-[The Canadian Press]-YAHOONEWS-December 3, 2017
KABUL — A suicide bomber riding on a motorcycle struck Sunday outside a soccer stadium in eastern Afghanistan, killing at least six people and wounding 13, an Afghan official said.Among those killed in the attack in Jalalabad, the capital of Nangarhar province, were a woman and a small child, according to Attahullah Khogyani, spokesman for the provincial governor.Khogyani said the attack took place shortly after a pro-government rally ended at the soccer stadium. The rally had been packed with supporters of the government of President Ashraf Ghani.No one immediately claimed responsibility for the attack in Nangarhar province.On Saturday, two intelligence service members, including the director of the Jalalabad intelligence department were killed, and 10 others, including both soldiers and civilians were wounded in multiple bomb attacks by Islamic State militants in Jalalabad.A local affiliate of the Islamic State group is seeking to expand its footprint in Afghanistan.The Associated Press.
6.0 earthquake hits Ecuador coast; no injuries reported-[The Canadian Press]-YAHOONEWS-December 3, 2017
QUITO, Ecuador — A magnitude 6.0 earthquake struck along the coast of Ecuador Sunday in the same area where a much stronger tremor left hundreds dead last year.President Lenin Moreno said there were no immediate reports of victims or major damage from the quake, which jolted many Ecuadoreans who were still in bed shortly after 6 a.m. (1100 GMT). It was felt in 12 provinces across the country.The U.S. Geological Survey said the quake, with a depth of 15.5 miles (25 kilometres ), was centred around the town of San Vicente.Authorities said that there wasn't a risk of a tsunami and appealed for calm.They also expressed optimism that Ecuadoreans were better prepared for a natural disaster after rebuilding from last year's magnitude 7.8 quake along the Pacific coast that left more than 600 people dead and thousands more injured and homeless."We've made some giant steps and are much more prepared than we were in the past," said Ricardo Penaherrera, a top official with Ecuador's agency for risk management, pointing out that authorities carried out an earthquake drill last week in the same area where Sunday's quake took place.He said authorities were still canvassing coastal areas for damage but that other than knocking out power in some rural areas there were no immediate reports of major damage.Fabricio Diaz, governor of Manabi province, said emergency dispatchers received just 38 phone calls, the majority from residents inquiring about the quake's epicenter rather than reporting damages. The province's ports, dams and major roadways were unaffected, he said.The Associated Press.
Remembering 1963 eruption, Bali's elderly wary of another-[The Canadian Press]-YAHOONEWS-December 3, 2017
KLUNGKUNG, Indonesia — Bali's glowering Mount Agung has seemingly quieted since hurling huge columns of ash from its crater a week ago, but some villagers on the Indonesian island who survived the catastrophic 1963 explosions believe a bigger eruption is coming.Ash plumes have dissipated in the past few days though an online seismogram from the mountain's monitoring post resembles a crazed abstract painting, indicating the tremendous forces churning within.Explosions from the smoking crater and tremors still rattle the surrounding region and authorities have maintained Agung's alert at the highest level. Its 1963 eruptions killed about 1,100 people."The situation now is almost the same," said Nengah Tresni, who was 12 when Agung erupted in 1963. She recalls being at one of the Hindu temples that dot the volcano's slopes and the sky suddenly turning dark as she left with her family."I'm sure there will be a big eruption. It is just a matter of time," said Tresni, who came with family members on Tuesday to an ageing sports centre that's serving as an evacuation camp after officials told them to leave their village."In the old eruption many people did not expect it to be big because there were small eruptions for a long time and villagers just went to the temple to pray," she said.It's the second time Tresni has fled to the camp since September, when the 3,140-meter (10,300-foot) volcano burst into life after more than half a century of inactivity. Officials lowered the volcano's alert level at the end of October and most of the 140,000 people who had evacuated returned home. It proved to be a brief respite."I actually didn't want to go back because I thought there would be big eruptions, but my family wanted to go home," she said. "And now we're refugees here again."Nyoman Siki from a village high on the volcano's slopes was 6 or 7 years old in 1963 and remembers it being said that 200 people from his area were killed. But he was philosophical about the situation. When people returned a year after the eruption, he said they were happy because it had renewed the fertility of the land."After years of cultivation, the volcano is just about to erupt again," he said.More than 55,000 people are living in shelters such as sports halls, temples and tent camps since officials expanded the no-go area around the volcano on Monday. Many centres appear well organized, but one visited by Associated Press reporters in Rendang district on Saturday was tightly packed and muddy from the frequent rains. Tourists who were stranded when the idyllic island's airport closed for nearly three days have rushed to leave.Nyoman Merta said that after the 1963 eruption, he and his family walked for three days from their village before authorities picked them up and took them to an evacuation camp."I was 9 years old but I can remember many people still stayed. There were no warnings like now and maybe that was why many people were killed then," he said.The family stayed in Denpasar in the south of Bali for a year. When they returned home, he said, their house was uninhabitable because of damage caused by the eruptions.He compared the recent months of escalating danger signs from Agung with 1963.Scientists agree the danger remains though making an exact prediction is difficult if not impossible."At all volcanoes we can expect fluctuations in activity. This does not mean that the threat is over," said Heather Handley, a volcanologist at Sydney's Macquarie University. "It is clearly still in an active phase."In the 1963 eruption, there were small ash explosions in February followed by a lava flow and then a large explosive eruption on March 17, she said. A second major eruption occurred two months later "so activity can stop and start again," said Handley.At the muddy Rendang camp, bare-chested 77-year-old Nyoman Arse remembered the 1963 disaster in great detail and was unperturbed by Agung's ash eruptions in the past week.Recalling events when he was 24, Arse said the mountain sent out ash for a month and then exploded about the same time as Galungan, an important religious celebration in majority Hindu Bali that in 1963 fell in mid-March."I saw the rocks coming down the mountain with a very loud noise," he said, imitating crashing sounds. "The rocks were huge," he said. "What's happening now is still nothing."Stephen Wright And Wayan Nambi, The Associated Press.
