Thousands of Serbs living in Kosovo gathered in the Serbian-controlled northern part of the divided town of Mitrovica to hear Vucic speaking on Sunday.

Jack Ma to unveil succession plans, not imminent retirement: SCMP Posted: 08 Sep 2018 10:28 PM PDT Alibaba co-founder and chairman Jack Ma will unveil a succession plan on Monday, the South China Morning Post reported Sunday, with a company spokesman denying a New York Times report that he would retire that day. The SCMP, which is owned by Alibaba, said China's most famous tech billionaire will "unveil a succession strategy" on Monday -- his 54th birthday -- but remain the company's executive chairman for the foreseeable future. The New York Times ran an article on Friday, based on an interview with Ma, saying the former teacher turned billionaire planned to use his birthday to announce his retirement as chairman of Alibaba to focus on philanthropy. |
Egypt set to release Lebanese tourist jailed over Facebook post Posted: 09 Sep 2018 12:59 PM PDT A Lebanese tourist who was sentenced to eight years in prison for posting a video on Facebook the authorities claimed had insulted the country is set to walk free after a court cut the prison term and suspended it, the state-run MENA news agency said on Sunday. A Cairo court in July found Mona el-Mazboh guilty of deliberately spreading false rumors that would harm society, attacking religion, and public indecency. El-Mazboh was arrested at Cairo airport in June at the end of her stay in Egypt after a 10-minute video in which she was complaining of sexual harassment and conditions in Egypt using explicit language went viral on social media. |

Serious new allegations against CBS chief amid departure talks Posted: 09 Sep 2018 01:38 PM PDT Six more women have stepped forward to accuse influential CBS chairman Leslie Moonves of sexual harassment and assault, as reports circulated that his negotiated departure from the network might be imminent. The New Yorker reported Sunday that the women say they were harassed or assaulted between 1980 and the early 2000s by Moonves, who in more than two decades with the network helped lift it from last place to profitable status as America's most-watched. The accusations were more serious than those from six other women who The New Yorker reported in July had accused Moonves of unwanted touching or kissing. |
Armed groups agree to keep Tripoli ceasefire: U.N Posted: 09 Sep 2018 10:22 AM PDT Armed groups vying for control of the Libyan capital have agreed to set up a mechanism to "consolidate" a recently agreed ceasefire, the United Nations' Libya mission, UNSMIL, said on Sunday. On Tuesday, the United Nations persuaded various armed groups to halt fighting that had killed dozens in Tripoli, one of the many sites of unrest gripping the oil producer.

Sweden 'naive' about integration: ex-Peshmerga Swedish MP Posted: 08 Sep 2018 07:41 AM PDT Sweden's "naive" approach to integrating asylum seekers has opened the door to the far-right, an outspoken lawmaker told AFP ahead of elections expected to see the country's once-marginal anti-immigration party make gains. Amineh Kakabaveh is an Iranian Kurdish ex-peshmerga fighter who sought asylum herself in Sweden in the 1990s and has been a member of parliament since 2008. Sweden is "increasingly divided", said the 40-year-old politician, whose views have earned her enemies among her own formerly-communist Left Party who accuse her of stigmatising immigrants. |
Crews fight to outflank raging Northern California wildfire Posted: 08 Sep 2018 01:14 PM PDT Firefighters battled on Saturday to outflank a wildfire that has forced the closure of an interstate highway in Northern California as the blaze swept through explosively dry mountain timber in the Shasta-Trinity National Forest for a fourth day. As of midday Saturday, the Delta Fire had scorched nearly 37,000 acres (14,973 hectares) in the Cascade range since erupting on Wednesday in a forest canyon along the Sacramento River, about 250 miles (402 km) north of San Francisco, fire officials said. No serious injuries or deaths have been reported, but the blaze has caused major travel disruptions. |

Pressure grows on German spy chief over Chemnitz protests Posted: 08 Sep 2018 08:16 AM PDT Germany has been deeply shaken by the most violent right-wing protests in decades after the Aug. 26 killing of the German man in Chemnitz, in the eastern state of Saxony, for which two immigrants were arrested. Friday's comments by Hans-Georg Maassen, head of the BfV domestic intelligence agency, aggravated tensions about whether politicians and the authorities are being too complacent in the face of rising xenophobia in Germany, where many thought the lessons of its Nazi history had long been learned. Maassen said he was skeptical about "media reports on right-wing extremists hunting down people in Chemnitz", adding that a video circulating showing that happening could have been faked. |

Iran completes facility to build centrifuges: nuclear chief Posted: 09 Sep 2018 01:07 PM PDT Iran has completed a facility to build advanced centrifuges, Iran's nuclear chief was quoted on Sunday as saying, as Tehran prepares to increase its uranium-enrichment capacity if the nuclear deal collapses after the United States exits. In June, Ali Akbar Salehi, the head of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran, said the facility at the Natanz nuclear plant would be completed within a month. Salehi's statement in June came days after Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said he had ordered preparations to increase the country's uranium enrichment capacity if the nuclear agreement with world powers collapsed. |
