Italys Prime Minister<\/a> has announced a new measures and saying theres no time to waste after a spike in covered 1000. 00 cases just 7 counties says he wants to avoid a full lockdown but the situation has become critical mayors will be allowed to close public squares in the evening to stop people gathering. We should wait a few days before we can see the results of the new measures we must commit and continue to make the sacrifices while waiting for the checks to be completed before monoclonal antibodies and for vaccines that we can make them available for all of us.

Protesters in thailand ignored warnings from police and of demonstrated in the capital on sunday calling for the Prime Minister<\/a> to step down they came out in their thousands despite a ban on huge gatherings demonstrators are also demanding a more democratic constitution and changes to the monarchy tony chang was at the protests. But once again for the 5th day in a row protesters have come out onto the streets of bangkok to show their displeasure the government and again the earth orators have tried to starve them and failed earlier in the day the police had warned that anyone attending would be charged and arrested they even said that those people who turned up and posted selfies on social media could be liable for 2 years in jail or 2000 dollars fines but clearly that hasnt deterred anyone people are still here and theyre still determined that their demands be met quite a lot here. I think we need to change we need to demand an end to the unfairness that has happened the 1st thing that i want to see is that they stop ignoring our voices we should be able to gather and protest peacefully and i want to see more freedom not arrests at this stage we dont know how long these protests are going to continue to a certain extent some of the phase has gone out of this because the protest leaders have been detained that said these protests have now spread theyre taking place in different sites across bangkok and tonight even in different places across the country the protesters are shown that after the crackdown on friday night theyre still prepared to come out theyre still to come out prepared to come out in numbers and theyre not scared and now the ball is very much in the governments call. The Prime Minister<\/a> of the self declared republic of Northern Cyprus<\/a> has not only won the president ial runoff thats a result thats likely to have a bearing on heightened tensions in the Eastern Mediterranean<\/a> so again here go reports. It was a tight race offering 2 different views over the south declared republics future and the results could have hardly been closer in one corner the outgoing president was to for.

Challenging him as in tata a nationalist closely aligned with turkish president trichet tie of odo on he favors a closer union with ankara and maintaining separate ministrations on the island of vision backed by turkey. From us the message will be given to the world by reflecting the will of Turkish Cypriot<\/a>s at the ballot box that message is that once a unifying peacemaking person who will be everybodys president sits in the president ial chair tensions will be left behind. But for months now the Eastern Mediterranean<\/a> has seen tensions escalate contested Maritime Claims<\/a> has pitted turkey against greece cyprus and the European Union<\/a> of offshore rights as it was used Gas Exploration<\/a> in the surrounding waters a move contend as a provocation by brussels earlier in october turkish troops open Public Access<\/a> to the closed off seaside ghost town.
