Iraq's new PM backed by US, Iran
Iraq's new prime minister-designate won swift
endorsements from uneasy mutual allies the United States and Iran today
as he called on political leaders to end crippling feuds that have let
jihadists seize a third of the country.
Haider al-Abadi still faces opposition closer to home, where his Shi'ite party colleague Nuri al-Maliki has refused to step aside after eight years as premier that have alienated Iraq's once dominant Sunni minority and irked Washington and Tehran.

As Ukraine Opposition Rallies Intensify, Lenin Statue Falls. -A group of masked youths apparently belonging to the Svoboda nationalist party used a steel cable to rip it down
KIEV, December 8 (RIA Novosti) – Several hundred thousand people
gathered in the Ukrainian capital Sunday for one of the largest protest
rallies in the former Soviet nation’s history, throwing down the
gauntlet to a government that has resisted calls for negotiation with
the opposition.
In an incident that may have spark criminal investigations and cast a shadow over the generally pacific events, however, a group of nationalists ripped down a statue of Soviet revolutionary leader Vladimir Lenin.
The mass assembly in Kiev was the biggest to date since the government last month pulled out of preparations to sign landmark political and trade deals with the EU, sparking widespread indignation across Ukraine.

Greece probes extremist link to the two young people murders.
AFP - Greek authorities believe an extremist group may be behind a drive-by shooting outside the offices of the neo-Nazi Golden Dawn party in which two men were killed and another wounded, sources close to the investigation said Saturday.
Investigators are examining "all avenues, particularly those that link these events to extremist groups" behind a series of attacks on politicians, police, banks and the media, according to one source.
The revelation came as the mother of the wounded man, 29-year-old Alexandros Gerontas, called on Greek people to "overcome their differences" for the good of the country and to "stop the bloodshed".

Türkischer Minister droht Merkel mit Konsequenzen/ Οι Τούρκοι έχουν "σαλτάρει" και απειλούν τη Γερμανία....
--
Der Streit zwischen Berlin
und Ankara um das harte Vorgehen der türkischen Regierung gegen
Demonstranten eskaliert. Wegen deutschlandkritischer Äußerungen der
Regierung in Ankara wurde am Freitag der türkische Botschafter in
Berlin, Hüseyin Avni Karslioglu, ins Auswärtige Amt (AA) einbestellt.
Äußerungen zu den EU-Beitrittsverhandlungen seien auf großes
Unverständnis gestoßen. "Das geht so nicht", sagte AA-Sprecher Andreas
Peschke.
Kurz darauf
bestellte das türkische Außenministerium den deutschen Botschafter
Eberhard Pohl ein, wie eine Ministeriumssprecherin auf Anfrage
bestätigte. Außenminister Ahmet Davutoglu habe bei einem Besuch im
ukrainischen Odessa gesagt, Grund seien Aussagen Pohls und aus
Deutschland, meldete die Nachrichtenagentur Anadolu. Da Pohl sich nicht
in Ankara aufhalte, werde ihn ein anderer Diplomat vertreten.

Ten years since the signature of the Treaty of Athens
Ten years ago, on April 16, 2003, the Treaty of Accession to the
European Union of 10 European countries – the Czech Republic, Estonia,
Cyprus, Latvia, Lithuania, Hungary, Malta, Poland, Slovenia and Slovakia
– was signed in Athens. This historical event took place during the
Greek Presidency of the Council of the European Union and is enshrined
forever as one of the most important documents of the reunited Europe.
Later,
on May 1, 2004, all our countries became fully fledged members of the
reunified European family comprising 25 member states at that time. It
was the largest single expansion since the Paris Treaty of 1951, the
forerunner of the EU, in terms of population, number of states and
territory.
Moreover, it was the symbolic completion of the vital strategic goal of all the acceding member states to finally put an end to the post-World War II period by returning to the common space of freedom and stability, democracy and prosperity. The signature of the Treaty of Athens opened a new era for the acceding countries, for their citizens and ultimately for the whole of Europe.
