 O presidente norte-americano cessante, George W. Bush, espera que o seu sucessor, Barack Obama, reflicta bem antes de pôr em causa as controversas técnicas aplicadas pela sua administração para combater o terrorismo. Numa entrevista divulgada hoje pelo canal Fox News, Bush voltou a defender as técnicas aplicadas pela CIA para fazer falar os suspeitos de terrorismo e disse rejeitar o...

...termo de "tortura". "Espero que a equipa que terá a honra de servir o país examine atentamente as realidades do mundo, bem como dos instrumentos de que dispomos actualmente para proteger os Estados Unidos de um novo atentado", afirmou Bush.


O presidente norte-americano disse ainda que espera que os novos governantes "avaliem seriamente a situação". "Acredito que é isso que farão", acrescentou.

Israele, rischio espulsione per 400 bambini

 Al termine dello Shabbat di sabato scorso, le strade di Tel Aviv hanno fatto da scenografia ad una delle manifestazione popolari su una delle questioni più sentite negli ultimi anni dalla società civile israeliana: la sorte di 400 bambini figli di immigrati che il governo israeliano vorrebbe espellere dal Paese.

In Brief

 La Habana, Cuba - Barack Obama's call for action on climate change and his admission that rich nations have a particular responsibility to lead has received strong praise from an unusual source - U.S. nemesis Fidel Castro. The former Cuban leader on Wednesday called the American president's speech at the United Nations "brave" and said no other American head of state would have had the courage to make similar remarks.
 Khartoum, Sudan - Opponents of Sudan's president have gathered in the southern capital, Juba, invited by the former rebels of the Sudan People's Liberation Movement. Former enemies were smiling together as a historic conference opened in Juba. But the meeting has been causing a political stir, with President Omar al-Bashir's party a notable absentee. Semi-autonomous southern Sudan has been controlled by the SPLM since a 2005 peace deal ended more than two decades of civil war between north and south.
 Lisbon, Portugal - Portuguese voted Sunday in an election that that the ruling Socialists were expected to win but without an absolute majority, producing greater political uncertainty at a time of serious economic challenges. Prime Minister Jose Socrates is expected to win about 38 percent of the vote, meaning his center-left Socialists would be unable to replicate their current majority rule.
 Tel Aviv, Israel - Israel says the disclosure that Iran is building a second nuclear enrichment facility proves it "wants to equip itself with nuclear weapons". Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman said Israel wanted to see an "unequivocal" Western response to the development. Tehran insists that the site, under construction near the city of Qom, is being built in line with United Nations regulations, though this is contested.

 Camberra, Australia - Kevin Rudd's most important diplomatic goal is within reach: having the Group of 20 converted into a permanent decision-making body that gives Australia an influence it has never previously enjoyed. Early reports from the US side from the Pittsburgh summit suggest world leaders have decided to make the G20 the prime global body for economic decision-making. If such impressions are confirmed this is a substantial shift in international power arrangements.
