PARIS (AP) — French far right
leader Marine Le Pen on Thursday took down a tweet showing the
execution of American reporter James Foley after his family protested —
but left up two other gruesome images of violence by Islamic State
extremists.
French authorities are investigating the tweets,
which Le Pen posted in response to a journalist who made an analogy
between her anti-immigration National Front party and the Islamic State
group. Le Pen was trying to show the difference between the two but the
effort backfired, drawing widespread condemnation, and the interior
minister accused her of fomenting Islamic State propaganda.
Foley's mother Diane said on French radio RTL on
Thursday that the tweets "add to the family's pain." The family issued a
statement saying, "We are deeply disturbed by the unsolicited use of
Jim for Le Pen's political gain" and want the photos taken down
"immediately."
Soon afterward, Le Pen's tweet disappeared.
However, two other tweets with images of IS executions remained visible
on her Twitter account. Party spokesman Alain Vizier would not comment
on why Le Pen took down the Foley photo. shop on line click here for the best::https://www.daraz.pk/
BRUSSELS (AP) — The latest
news on the mass movement of asylum-seekers and migrants to Europe,
including developments from an EU summit where leaders are discussing
the issue. All times local.
11:35 a.m. European Union leaders are converging on
Brussels for an end-of-year summit focused on tackling Europe's migrant
crisis and other issues. On the first day of their two-day summit
starting Thursday, EU leaders will examine a controversial plan from the
European Commission to set up a new border and coast guard agency with
powers to unilaterally deploy guards to countries in trouble.
The plan appears likely to face opposition by
southern European nations hardest hit by the arrival of hundreds of
thousands of migrants to Europe this year, including Greece and Italy.
LONDON (AP) — Europe in 2015
witnessed the greatest movement of people since World War II, as
desperate refugees fleeing Middle East violence arrived by the hundreds
of thousands on its shores. The continent also suffered extremist
attacks that exposed the vulnerability of its civilians and challenged
its way of life.
Africa suffered devastating attacks as well but
also welcomed Pope Francis with joy. As the tumultuous year draws to a
close, The Associated Press is looking back on 12 months of upheaval in
Europe and Africa by presenting the most memorable images by AP
photographers. These stories highlight how interconnected the world has
become, with Europe facing grave challenges stemming in large part from
unrest in the Middle East.
Deadly attacks on Paris touched a global nerve — in
January with the slaughter at the satirical newspaper Charlie Hebdo,
and in November with coordinated attacks in Paris that claimed 130 lives
and wounded hundreds. But there were major extremist attacks elsewhere
as well — in Nigeria, Tunisia, Turkey and other countries.
Memorable —and often painful — images came from
other tragedies, including a plane crash in the French Alps, a deadly
fire in a Romanian nightclub and a political assassination in Moscow.
The migration crisis produced some of the most iconic images of the year
along the hazardous journey toward northern Europe. Some refugees
exulted in their survival, raising their arms in joy and relief when
their flimsy rafts made landfall in Europe. Others drowned in the sea,
including 3-year-old Aylan Kurdi, whose lifeless body was photographed
after washing up on a Turkish beach and galvanized the world's horror at
the unfolding crisis.
These photographs show a Europe that is both less
isolated and more vulnerable, its borders elastic, its control
mechanisms threatened, its capitals both defiant and fearful.
