KAZAKHSTAN AT UN CALLS FOR A NEW SUPERNATIONAL GLOBAL CURRENCY. ABBAS OUT OF TOUCH WITH BALLESTINIANS-SINCE PALESTINIANS DO NOT EXIST-ITS JUST A MADE UP NAME FOR THE BUNCH OF ARAB ISRAEL HATERS.
Address by His Excellency Nursultan Nazarbayev,President of the Republic of Kazakhstan-at the opening debate of the 70th session of the UN General Assembly-New York, September 28, 2015
First, I propose to transform the kiN Economic and Social Council into the Global Development Council. Along with UN member states elected by the General Assembly, it could consist of the heads of all UN Specialized agencies, including the International Monetary Fund.The Council should be tasked to become a global economic regulator. Global projects carried out by this Council are to promote economic growth world-wide.This will help decrease considerably the risks of global crises and ensure responsible behavior by the states in maintaining their national economic and social policies.We consider the idea of a World Anti-crisis Plan, the draft of which is being actively discussed on the margins of Astana Economic Forum, timely.The most pressing and serious global challenges - terrorism, demolition of the states,migration and other negative issues - are the result of the economic crisis, poverty, illiteracy and unemployment.To tackle this global crisis, we need to start with clear rules for the emission and trade of the world reserve currencies as they do not now meet the criteria of justice, democracy,competitiveness, effectiveness and international control.In the 21 st century, our world needs qualitatively new instruments.The UN member states need to combine their efforts to create a new supranational currency, which should be relevant to the targets and tasks of global sustainable development and prosperity.Second, in the year of the 70th anniversary of the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, I would urge that a world without nuclear weapons should be the main goal of humanity in the twenty-first century. I propose that we adopt the Universal Declaration of the United Nations to achieve a world free of nuclear weapons.Kazakhstan was the first ever country to close a nuclear test site, renounced the world's fourth largest nuclear arsenal and has contributed to the creation of a nuclear weapon free zone in Central Asia. There is an acute need to establish nuclear-free zones in other regions of the world,particularly the Middle East. The nuclear powers must provide guarantees of the non-use of force for all countries that renounce possession of nuclear weapons.
MEPs keen to harmonise EU election rules By Eszter Zalan-sept 28,15-euobserver
BRUSSELS, Today, 19:22-The European Parliament is pushing for minimum standards, including an electoral threshold of between 3 and 5 percent in member states, for the 2019 EU elections.MEPs in the constitutional affairs committee on Monday (28 September) backed a report that would “strengthen the European dimension” of the 2019 vote if member states agree in the EU Council.The report calls for thresholds - a minimum of 3 percent and a maximum of 5 percent - for parties in member states to post deputies to Brussels.The draft law, that would amend the 1976 Election Act, also proposes that European political parties should nominate their candidates for the position of European Commission President - something which de facto happened in the 2014 election.The report introduces the right to vote for EU citizens living outside the EU, the possibility of electronic and internet voting, as well as voting by post.It would also introduce a 12-week deadline for finalisation of electoral lists to avoid last-minute changes to nominations of candidates, and calls for lists of candidates to be gender-balanced.It says the provisional outcome of results should be communicated simultaneously in all member states.“The last European Parliamentary elections were a trauma for all of us, because it didn’t manage to be fully European, and it was visible in the turnout. We wanted to make the EP elections more European and less national,” Danuta Huebner, a Polish centre-right MEP who co-wrote the report, told EUobserver after the committee vote.Given how jealously EU capitals guard their national rules, Huebner and Jo Leinen, a German centre- left MEP, the other co-rapporteur, said they went for “realistic” proposals.The report will go before the EP plenary at the end of October, and will need the unanimous support of member states to go through.“We had to be practical and realistic,” said Huebner, who admits that thresholds are a difficult issue, but who also recalled that 15 member states have obligatory thresholds already.Doru Frantescu, the director and co-founder of Votewatch Europe, a British-based NGO, described the draft new rules as a “big leap forward towards ‘Europeanisation of the European elections’,” if they’re adopted.“It is precisely because these elections are seen as secondary that the new rules may actually get some traction in the Council, as the national politicians may feel that they don’t give away too much”, he told EUobserver.Besides the sensitive issue of nominating the Commission president, Frantescu thinks the electoral thresholds will be the most tricky.“It will be disputed in countries such as Germany, where the Constitutional Court has abolished the threshold for the European elections. However, if the new rules will be stated in an EU law, the position of the Court is likely to be different”, he said.“We have a lot of hurdles, but we made the first step,” Huebner added, highlighting that the report had the support of both of the EP’s biggest political groups.Huebner said she’s already in contact with the Luxembourg EU presidency and hopes to have it on the Council agenda before the end of the year.“We want to start moving on this,” she added.
French minister: 'TTIP talks are not transparent' By Eric Maurice-sept 28,15-euobserver
BRUSSELS, Today, 08:45-Negotiations for an EU-US free trade agreement "are not transparent" and could end if no progress is made, French trade minister Mathias Fekl said.Talks between the European Commission and US authorities are going on "in a complete lack of transparency and a big opacity, and this poses a democratic problem," Fekl said in an interview with French regional newspaper Sud Ouest published Monday (28 September)."US parliamentarians have access to many more documents than European parliamentarians," he said, adding that Europeans can have access to the documents only in a secured room at the US embassy.Negotiations for the so-called Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) started in July 2013 and will not be completed this year, as previously expected by the EU."Europe made multiple offers, on all issues, and in return got no serious offer for the Americans, neither on access to their public procurements, nor on access to agricultural and food-processing markets, which remain closed," Fekl detailed."There is too much asymmetry, not enough reciprocity," between the EU and the US, he said, adding that the US does not show interest in EU demands on public services and the arbitration system.On 16 September, EU trade commissioner Cecilia Malmstrom presented plans for an "investment court system" that would replace the ISDS (investor-to-state dispute settlement) mechanism that has been planned so far in the TTIP.ISDS, which is a private arbitration system, has been opposed by NGOs, MEPs and some countries including France."If nothing changes, that will show that there is no will to achieve mutually beneficial negotiations," Fekl said."France is considering all options, including an outright end of negotiations".

Russia and Iran buddy up at fraught UN summit-AFP-SEPT 28,15-YAHOONEWS
United Nations (United States) (AFP) - Russian President Vladimir Putin and his Iranian counterpart Hassan Rouhani on Monday talked up ties between their two nations at a UN summit dominated by Moscow's push on the conflict in Syria.Russia and Iran both back the regime of President Bashar al-Assad and the Kremlin is pressing the West to side with him and Tehran in its fight against jihadists from the Islamic State group."I would like to note that our relations are developing quite actively," Putin told Rouhani at a meeting on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly meeting."As for our cooperation, we are satisfied with it, including in the international arena, in the fight against terrorism."Rouhani likewise lavished praise on the "good consensus" between Tehran and Moscow on the instability in the Middle East and said the two countries "play a very important role" in ensuring security of the region."All in the world now understand that without solving the problems of the Middle East those problems will spill into other regions and engulf the entire world," he said.Both men were among the star turns on a day of frantic diplomacy in New York as they tried to tilt the situation over Syria in their favor.Putin -- who was set to meet US leader Barack Obama later Monday for the first time in two years -- has thrust himself back into the international spotlight with a lighting charge on the Syrian conflict after over 18 months of isolation by the West over Ukraine.Rouhani, meanwhile, gave a speech to the UN for the first time since Tehran edged in from the cold after signing a landmark deal with world powers over its nuclear program.
House leader calls for beefed-up US response to IS, Russia-Associated Press By DEB RIECHMANN-SEPT 28,15-YAHOONEWS
WASHINGTON (AP) — The front-runner to become the next leader of the U.S. House of Representatives denounced President Barack Obama's foreign policy on Monday, saying the U.S. has "lost the respect of allies and adversaries alike."Republican Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy, who spoke after the president addressed the United Nations, said the U.S. should consider putting some special forces on the ground in Iraq to help coordinate airstrikes against Islamic State militants.He also backed a no-fly zone in northern Syria to stem the flow of refugees, and provide a space for Syrian rebels to fight the militants — steps the White House has so far opposed."We must wage this war against radical Islam as if our life depended on it. Because it does," said McCarthy, who also reiterated his criticism of the international nuclear deal with Iran."We have lost the respect of allies and adversaries alike. We have isolated Israel while emboldening nations like Iran. We let North Korea threaten South Korea, Russia encroach on Ukraine and now China is asserting a greater sphere of influence," McCarthy said. "Wherever we look, the world is less safe and less secure because America is less engaged."McCarthy is a heavy favorite to replace John Boehner in one of the most powerful jobs in Washington and become second in line to succeed the president.The speaker announced his resignation Friday amid growing discontent among some of the most conservative members of the House Republican conference. Reporters rushed McCarthy after his speech, but he wouldn't confirm that he was going to run for the speakership, even though it's widely expected that he will.

Obama-Putin handshake unlikely to end Western sanctions By Andrew Rettman-sept 28,15-euobserver
BRUSSELS, Today, 13:59-Ukraine is concerned that Putin's intervention in Syria could see the EU and US end Russia sanctions as part of a new alliance to fight the Islamic State (IS) group.But Western diplomats and analysts say it is not so simple.Russian leader Vladimir Putin will on Monday (28 September), in a speech at the UN assembly in New York, propose the creation of a new “co-ordinating structure” to fight IS and to mitigate the refugee crisis.He will, the same day, meet US leader Barack Obama for the first time since Russia invaded Ukraine.They will, diplomats predict, shake hands in front of cameras.It comes after Russia sent ground troops and fighter jets to Syria in the past month.It also comes before EU economic sanctions on Russia expire in January unless all member states agree to prolong them.Putin’s idea - that Russia and the West fight alongside Russia’s ally, Syrian leader Bashar Al-Assad - is gaining traction. Germany and the UK have said that, while Assad must go in a future Syria deal, they might let him stay in place until conditions improve for a political transition.The German vice-chancellor, Sigmar Gabriel, from the centre-left SPD party in the German coalition, went further."Everyone should be smart enough to know you can't stick to sanctions permanently on the one hand and ask for co-operation [in Syria] on the other hand”, he told press on Friday.His remarks met with criticism in Berlin.“We don't want to mix things [Syria and Ukraine] up”, German foreign minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier told ARD, a TV broadcaster.“ We won't let ourselves be blackmailed”, Peter Altmaier, German Chancellor Angela Merkel’s chief of staff, told Der Tagesspiegel, a newspaper.US diplomats are also saying they're ready to increase Russia sanctions if need be.But the chatter has done little to reassure Kiev.“We’ll be watching Obama’s body language, the tone of his statement, very carefully”, a Ukrainian diplomat told EUobserver.“We also have concerns whether Merkel will stay firm ... We don’t want Syria to lead to another Yalta”, the diplomat added, referring to a post-WWII pact between the West and Russia on the division of Europe.Russia’s status-For EU diplomats, Putin’s Syria gambit is more about rebuilding Russia's reputation in the long term than about a quick fix on sanctions, however.“He wants to change the narrative and to deflect attention from Ukraine”, a senior EU diplomat told this website.“He wants to ride into New York on a golden horse and to say: ‘America was wrong and I was right from the start. You can’t defeat IS without Assad'.”A second EU diplomat said: “It’s not about getting carte blanche on Ukraine. It’s about Putin's ambition to restore Russia as a great power at the centre of the global security architecture, to show that it’s indispensible to the solution of any important crisis”.Marc Pierini, a former EU ambassador to Turkey, who now works for the Carnegie Europe think tank, agreed.“Things don’t happen so neatly: You give me this and I give you that”, he told this website on the sanctions theory.“Putin wants to show: ‘We’re here and we matter. You [the West] don’t get to decide whether Assad stays or goes’," he added.“Putin annexed Crimea and Obama did nothing. He invaded east Ukraine and Obama still did almost nothing. Now he wants to show that he’s calling the shots in Syria whether Obama likes it or not”.-Symbolism-Analysts also note that Russia’s intervention in Syria is more “symbolic” than decisive.Pierini said it has deployed some 200 soldiers and 24 fighter jets and attack helicopters in Latakia, on Syria’s Mediterranean coast.He said it may be enough to keep Assad in power a bit longer, but not to defeat IS.Mark Galeotti, a Russia expert at New York University, said Latakia’s barracks can house 2,000 soldiers.He said it is enough for a small force to protect the base and to house the air crews and their ground support staff, but little more.He noted it is too risky for Putin to “surge” his best troops into Syria because it would leave him vulnerable in Ukraine.He also noted it takes 10 days for a round-trip for Russian ships - carrying the petrol, spare parts, and ammunition that would be needed to sustain a military campaign - from Russia's Black Sea base to Syria.Beyond Ukraine-For his part, Germany’s Steinmeier, speaking to ARD, also said: “I hope that co-operation [with Russia] in the matter of Syria can help us to move forward in Ukraine”.For some Polish diplomats Steinmeier’s aside also indicates that Germany is wobbly on sanctions.But for Galeotti, the idea is that a Syria coalition could help Putin to make a peace deal on Ukraine and save face.There’s little sign he is preparing to let go easily.Ukraine says Russia has 9,000 soldiers on its territory. Its puppet regimes in east Ukraine are also consolidating power with “elections” in October and November.But Galeotti said Russia’s hybrid force isn’t strong enough to conquer more ground.“There’s a sense [in Russia] that, until now, there’s been no point in talking to the US - that the West just wants Russia to capitulate on Ukraine. And it can’t do that”, he told EUobserver.“But co-operation in the Middle East could allow Putin to extricate himself from Ukraine", he added.“Even my most optimistic contacts in the [Russian] foreign ministry don't expect a swift end to sanctions. They’re looking for cracks in the diplomatic wall around Russia ... they think there's genuine scope for co-operation [on IS] and they're looking for a statement that Russia can be part of a solution, not just a problem".

Abbas out of options, out of synch with angry Palestinians-Associated Press By KARIN LAUB and MOHAMMED DARAGHMEH-SEPT 28,15-YAHOONEWS
RAMALLAH, West Bank (AP) — Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas has threatened to drop a "bombshell" in a speech to the United Nations this week — prompting speculation that he will sever ties with Israel over its settlement expansion and other hard-line policies.The warning reflects desperation, but may not signal action.Abbas' hopes of setting up a Palestinian state through negotiations with Israel have been derailed, and a new poll shows that a majority of Palestinians want the 80-year-old to resign and dissolve his self-rule government, the Palestinian Authority. Many no longer believe a two-state solution is realistic and support political violence.Abbas could try to align himself with a frustrated public by shifting to a more confrontational policy, including ending security cooperation with Israeli troops against a shared foe, the Islamic militant Hamas group.It's a risky move that could cost him vital foreign aid, trigger chaos and end his 10-year rule. Abbas aides have suggested in recent days that despite his threats, he will make do with a general warning to Israel at the U.N.Yet more indecision could further turn Palestinians against him. The mood in the West Bank is explosive, with anger mounting over Palestinian Authority mismanagement, perceived Israeli threats to a major holy site in Jerusalem and a sense of having been abandoned by the Arab world, said veteran pollster Khalil Shikaki."If a spark comes along, there is absolutely no doubt that the Palestinian situation today is very, very fertile for a major eruption," he said.Here is a look at what lies ahead.___ON THE SIDELINES?-Just three years ago, Abbas was the center of attention at the annual U.N. gathering of world leaders. He asked for, and later received, General Assembly recognition of Palestine as a non-member observer state in the West Bank, Gaza and east Jerusalem, the lands Israel captured in 1967.But when Abbas addresses the General Assembly on Wednesday other regional conflicts, including the war against the Islamic State group and the migration crisis in Europe, are likely to take the spotlight. President Barack Obama made no mention of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict in his speech to the General Assembly on Monday, drawing rare public Palestinian criticism."Does Obama believe that he can defeat Islamic State and terrorism or achieve security and stability in the Middle East by ignoring the continued Israeli occupation...?" Abbas aide Saeb Erekat said in a statement published by the official Palestinian news agency WAFA.Washington appears to have little interest in mounting another major push for peace. A nine-month effort by Secretary of State John Kerry collapsed last year because Abbas and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu couldn't even agree on the ground rules. Netanyahu, unlike some predecessors, refuses to recognize Israel's pre-1967 frontier as a starting point for border talks.____WHAT CAN ABBAS DO?-Statehood through negotiations has been his sole strategy for decades and he opposes violence. With those options off the table, Abbas tried to gain leverage by courting further international recognition, including by joining institutions such as the International Criminal Court.But any possible ICC war crimes case against Israel for settling on occupied lands is years away, if it's possible at all. And symbolic victories, such as the right to raise the Palestinian flag outside U.N. headquarters this year, mean little to Palestinians struggling with unemployment, rising prices and Israeli movement restrictions.In recent weeks, Abbas resorted to threats to remind the world that the Israeli-Palestinian conflict must not fester. He warned he is fast-tracking his retirement, hinted at dramatic changes in dealings with Israel and said he would "throw a bombshell" at the end of his U.N. speech. But he has not elaborated.____WHAT'S IN THE SPEECH?- Abbas will make his decision only after talks with Kerry and other Arab and European mediators in New York, aides said.In a weekend meeting, Kerry did not offer Abbas sufficient guarantees if he gives peace efforts another chance, Abbas adviser Ahmed Majdalani told Voice of Palestine radio.Palestinian U.N. ambassador Riyad Mansour told the station that Abbas' speech is to "present steps to create facts on the ground toward setting up statehood, the statehood how we see it, how the international community sees it, not how the occupation (Israel) sees it."Abbas will likely complain about Israeli actions, including settlement expansion and army incursions into autonomous Palestinian areas, said Majdalani and another aide, Nabil Shaath.They suggested the Palestinian leader will not go beyond general warnings, but Shaath cautioned that last-minute changes are possible.Some senior Palestinians raised the idea that Abbas request U.N. trusteeship, but the option was dropped on legal grounds, officials said.____HOW DURABLE IS THE STATUS QUO?-The Oslo Accords that set up Palestinian autonomy in the mid-1990s were meant as a stepping stone toward Palestinian statehood. Instead, a temporary arrangement has largely remained in place despite wars, uprisings and political crises. Hamas seized Gaza in 2007, but Abbas still administers 38 percent of the West Bank, with the rest of that territory and Israeli-annexed east Jerusalem under sole Israeli control.The arrangement serves both sides to some extent. Israel has given itself free rein on security, while successfully subcontracting some security tasks to Abbas' forces. The Palestinian Authority, supported by millions of dollars in foreign aid, provides public services, relieving Israel of its costly burden as military occupier.The Palestinian Authority has become the largest employer in the West Bank, while the political class enjoys many perks, such as preferential access to housing and jobs."Abbas is not going to dissolve the Palestinian Authority because there is an internal interest in maintaining it, the privileges, the international pressure and the international money," said Ali Jerbawi, a former Palestinian Cabinet minister.___WHAT DOES ISRAEL WANT?-Netanyahu has accused Abbas of fomenting violence through alleged incitement, as tensions have risen around Jerusalem's most sensitive holy site, revered by Muslims and Jews. But despite the rhetoric, Netanyahu appears to have little interest in seeing Abbas go.Netanyahu faces growing international isolation due to anger over settlement construction and stalled peace efforts. The collapse of the Oslo accords would raise pressure on Netanyahu to try to resolve the Palestinian issue. Netanyahu has called for a resumption of peace talks, but has not said what he might offer.___WHAT'S NEXT?-Abbas has lost Palestinian public opinion, according to last week's poll by the Palestinian Center for Policy and Survey Research, based on 1,270 respondents, with an error margin of 3 percentage points."Two-thirds of the public want him out, they demand that he resign," said pollster Shikaki.But there is no clear path to change.If presidential elections were held today, Abbas would lose to Ismail Haniyeh, the top Hamas leader in Gaza. However, elections are unlikely because of the political and geographic split between the West Bank and Gaza. No obvious successor to Abbas has emerged from within his inner circle.Palestinian anger is rising— in some ways reminiscent of the mood before the outbreak of the second uprising 15 years ago, Shikaki said. At the same time, Palestinians are still scarred from the harsh Israeli clampdown following the bombings and shootings of the last revolt, and there might be little appetite for renewed hardship.Mohammed Ennayah, a pharmacist in the West Bank, said Abbas failed and should resign."There is no hope to have a state, not in peace and not in war," he said. "After 25 years of the peace process, we have more settlements and more settlers. Where would we build the state?"___Laub reported from Jericho, West Bank.

World leaders at UN lay out sharply different views on Syria-Associated Press By CARA ANNA-SEPT 28,15-YAHOONEWS
UNITED NATIONS (AP) — Vladimir Putin played it cool, Barack Obama was earnest but firm and Iran's president walked in smiling. World leaders glided through the opening day of a U.N. gathering Monday that aims to wrestle with the globe's biggest crises — a historic flood of refugees, the rise of threats like the Islamic State group and the conflict in Syria.The U.N. secretary-general for the first time called for the civil war in Syria to be referred to the International Criminal Court, while Iranian President Hassan Rouhani said Iran's recent nuclear deal with world powers had a broader goal: "We want to suggest a new and constructive way to recreate the international order."Chinese President Xi Jinping made a $1 billion pledge for U.N. peace efforts.And Jordan's King Abdullah II made a heartfelt defense of the kinder side of the Muslim world in the face of "the outlaws of Islam that operate globally today.""When and how did fear and intimidation creep so insidiously into our conversation when there is so much more to be said about the love of God?" he asked, also quoting the Quran on mercy.The king has called the rise of extremist groups like the Islamic State, and the crises they have caused, "a third world war, and I believe we must respond with equal intensity." Jordan borders both Syria and Iraq, and Syrian refugees now make up 20 percent of Jordan's population. Iraq and Turkey also groan under the strain of millions of refugees.In his state of the world address to leaders from the U.N.'s 193 member states, Ban Ki-Moon called for a political solution to the conflict in Syria, now well into its fifth year with more than a quarter of a million people killed.Ban said five countries "hold the key" to a political solution to Syria: Russia, the U.S., Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Iran. Obama and Putin, hours ahead of their first face-to-face meeting in nearly a year, gave no sign of closing their deep divide on the Syrian crisis.Obama said of Syrian President Bashar Assad, "when a dictator slaughters tens of thousands of his own people, that is not a matter of a nation's internal affairs." The U.S. is prepared to work with any country, including Russia and Iran, to resolve Syria's conflict, Obama said.The U.S. president also took jabs at Russia and China, without naming names. "The strong men of today become the spark of revolution tomorrow," Obama warned. And he added in a critique of restrictions on speech, "You can control access to information ... but you cannot turn a lie into truth."Putin, who showed up at the U.N. gathering for the first time in a decade and was not at Russia's seat in the chamber when Obama spoke, called for the creation of a broad international coalition against terror, following his country's surprising moves in recent weeks to increase its military presence in Syria and to share intelligence on the Islamic State group with Iran, Iraq and Syria.The Russian leader dismissed the West's concerns about his country's ambitions in Syria and called it "an enormous mistake to refuse to cooperate" with the Syrian government.Ukraine's table just in front of the speaker's stand was empty as Putin spoke. The country struggles against pro-Russia separatists in its east, while Russia denies supporting them.Rouhani appeared to align with Putin's call for a U.N. Security Council resolution consolidating the fight against terror, saying "we propose that the fight against terrorism be incorporated into a binding international document and no country be allowed to use terrorism for the purpose of intervention in the affairs of other countries."Meanwhile, Obama announced that more than 30,000 new troops and police have been pledged to U.N. peacekeeping missions from more than 50 countries. He spoke at a high-level meeting chaired by the U.S. to strengthen and modernize peacekeeping, which increasingly faces threats from extremist groups while being severely stretched in personnel and equipment.Other issues at the center of this week's discussions include the refugee and migrant crisis, the largest since the upheaval of World War II.Ban warned that resources to address them are dangerously low. "The global humanitarian system is not broken; it is broke," he said. The U.N. has just half of what it needs to help people in Iraq, South Sudan and Yemen, and just a third of what's needed for Syria.The U.N. chief, in unusually hard-hitting words, also blamed "proxy battles of others" for driving the fighting in Yemen, and he warned against "the dangerous drift" in resolving the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, saying it is essential for the international community to pressure both sides to re-engage.Others speaking Monday included French President Francois Hollande, who again declared that Assad "cannot be part of the solution" to the Syrian conflict, and Cuban President Raul Castro, who also has a meeting planned with Obama.Some, including Obama, Xi and Hollande, already addressed the General Assembly over the weekend during a separate global summit on sweeping new U.N. development goals for the next 15 years.___Associated Press writers Edith M.

Hurricane Marty closes in on western Mexico-AFP-SEPT 28,15-YAHOONEWS
Acapulco (Mexico) (AFP) - Hurricane Marty was churning Monday in the Pacific Ocean off the coast of Mexican resort town Acapulco, causing authorities to shutter schools and send 200,000 students home.The storm was "almost stalled off the coast" which could make it more dangerous since that could increase the volume of rain, said National Weather Service chief Alberto Hernandez."It is already generating a huge amount of rain" in Guerrero state, he added. Authorities there scrambled to get students from primary to university level home to safety.At 2100 GMT, Marty was packing top sustained winds of 80 miles per hour (130 kilometers per hour), and was located 145 miles west of Acapulco, the US National Hurricane Center said.The Category One storm was moving northeast at 6 miles per hour. Forecasters believe it could stay just off the coast but will be so close that a slight turn could see its center -- and high winds -- slam inland.In either case, the hurricane will create driving rains, they warned.Two years ago, mountainous Guerrero state was simultaneously hammered by hurricanes Ingrid and Manuel, killing 157 people.

KAZAKHSTAN AT UN CALLS FOR A NEW SUPERNATIONAL GLOBAL CURRENCY. ABBAS OUT OF TOUCH WITH BALLESTINIANS-SINCE PALESTINIANS DO NOT EXIST-ITS JUST A MADE UP NAME FOR THE BUNCH OF ARAB ISRAEL HATERS.
Address by His Excellency Nursultan Nazarbayev,President of the Republic of Kazakhstan-at the opening debate of the 70th session of the UN General Assembly-New York, September 28, 2015
First, I propose to transform the kiN Economic and Social Council into the Global Development Council. Along with UN member states elected by the General Assembly, it could consist of the heads of all UN Specialized agencies, including the International Monetary Fund.The Council should be tasked to become a global economic regulator. Global projects carried out by this Council are to promote economic growth world-wide.This will help decrease considerably the risks of global crises and ensure responsible behavior by the states in maintaining their national economic and social policies.We consider the idea of a World Anti-crisis Plan, the draft of which is being actively discussed on the margins of Astana Economic Forum, timely.The most pressing and serious global challenges - terrorism, demolition of the states,migration and other negative issues - are the result of the economic crisis, poverty, illiteracy and unemployment.To tackle this global crisis, we need to start with clear rules for the emission and trade of the world reserve currencies as they do not now meet the criteria of justice, democracy,competitiveness, effectiveness and international control.In the 21 st century, our world needs qualitatively new instruments.The UN member states need to combine their efforts to create a new supranational currency, which should be relevant to the targets and tasks of global sustainable development and prosperity.Second, in the year of the 70th anniversary of the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, I would urge that a world without nuclear weapons should be the main goal of humanity in the twenty-first century. I propose that we adopt the Universal Declaration of the United Nations to achieve a world free of nuclear weapons.Kazakhstan was the first ever country to close a nuclear test site, renounced the world's fourth largest nuclear arsenal and has contributed to the creation of a nuclear weapon free zone in Central Asia. There is an acute need to establish nuclear-free zones in other regions of the world,particularly the Middle East. The nuclear powers must provide guarantees of the non-use of force for all countries that renounce possession of nuclear weapons.
MEPs keen to harmonise EU election rules By Eszter Zalan-sept 28,15-euobserver
BRUSSELS, Today, 19:22-The European Parliament is pushing for minimum standards, including an electoral threshold of between 3 and 5 percent in member states, for the 2019 EU elections.MEPs in the constitutional affairs committee on Monday (28 September) backed a report that would “strengthen the European dimension” of the 2019 vote if member states agree in the EU Council.The report calls for thresholds - a minimum of 3 percent and a maximum of 5 percent - for parties in member states to post deputies to Brussels.The draft law, that would amend the 1976 Election Act, also proposes that European political parties should nominate their candidates for the position of European Commission President - something which de facto happened in the 2014 election.The report introduces the right to vote for EU citizens living outside the EU, the possibility of electronic and internet voting, as well as voting by post.It would also introduce a 12-week deadline for finalisation of electoral lists to avoid last-minute changes to nominations of candidates, and calls for lists of candidates to be gender-balanced.It says the provisional outcome of results should be communicated simultaneously in all member states.“The last European Parliamentary elections were a trauma for all of us, because it didn’t manage to be fully European, and it was visible in the turnout. We wanted to make the EP elections more European and less national,” Danuta Huebner, a Polish centre-right MEP who co-wrote the report, told EUobserver after the committee vote.Given how jealously EU capitals guard their national rules, Huebner and Jo Leinen, a German centre- left MEP, the other co-rapporteur, said they went for “realistic” proposals.The report will go before the EP plenary at the end of October, and will need the unanimous support of member states to go through.“We had to be practical and realistic,” said Huebner, who admits that thresholds are a difficult issue, but who also recalled that 15 member states have obligatory thresholds already.Doru Frantescu, the director and co-founder of Votewatch Europe, a British-based NGO, described the draft new rules as a “big leap forward towards ‘Europeanisation of the European elections’,” if they’re adopted.“It is precisely because these elections are seen as secondary that the new rules may actually get some traction in the Council, as the national politicians may feel that they don’t give away too much”, he told EUobserver.Besides the sensitive issue of nominating the Commission president, Frantescu thinks the electoral thresholds will be the most tricky.“It will be disputed in countries such as Germany, where the Constitutional Court has abolished the threshold for the European elections. However, if the new rules will be stated in an EU law, the position of the Court is likely to be different”, he said.“We have a lot of hurdles, but we made the first step,” Huebner added, highlighting that the report had the support of both of the EP’s biggest political groups.Huebner said she’s already in contact with the Luxembourg EU presidency and hopes to have it on the Council agenda before the end of the year.“We want to start moving on this,” she added.
French minister: 'TTIP talks are not transparent' By Eric Maurice-sept 28,15-euobserver
BRUSSELS, Today, 08:45-Negotiations for an EU-US free trade agreement "are not transparent" and could end if no progress is made, French trade minister Mathias Fekl said.Talks between the European Commission and US authorities are going on "in a complete lack of transparency and a big opacity, and this poses a democratic problem," Fekl said in an interview with French regional newspaper Sud Ouest published Monday (28 September)."US parliamentarians have access to many more documents than European parliamentarians," he said, adding that Europeans can have access to the documents only in a secured room at the US embassy.Negotiations for the so-called Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) started in July 2013 and will not be completed this year, as previously expected by the EU."Europe made multiple offers, on all issues, and in return got no serious offer for the Americans, neither on access to their public procurements, nor on access to agricultural and food-processing markets, which remain closed," Fekl detailed."There is too much asymmetry, not enough reciprocity," between the EU and the US, he said, adding that the US does not show interest in EU demands on public services and the arbitration system.On 16 September, EU trade commissioner Cecilia Malmstrom presented plans for an "investment court system" that would replace the ISDS (investor-to-state dispute settlement) mechanism that has been planned so far in the TTIP.ISDS, which is a private arbitration system, has been opposed by NGOs, MEPs and some countries including France."If nothing changes, that will show that there is no will to achieve mutually beneficial negotiations," Fekl said."France is considering all options, including an outright end of negotiations".

8 After many days thou shalt be visited: in the latter years thou shalt come into the land that is brought back from the sword, and is gathered out of many people, against the mountains of Israel, which have been always waste: but it is brought forth out of the nations, and they shall dwell safely all of them.
9 Thou shalt ascend and come like a storm, thou shalt be like a cloud to cover the land, thou, and all thy bands, and many people with thee.(RUSSIA-EGYPT AND MUSLIMS)

Russia and Iran buddy up at fraught UN summit-AFP-SEPT 28,15-YAHOONEWS
United Nations (United States) (AFP) - Russian President Vladimir Putin and his Iranian counterpart Hassan Rouhani on Monday talked up ties between their two nations at a UN summit dominated by Moscow's push on the conflict in Syria.Russia and Iran both back the regime of President Bashar al-Assad and the Kremlin is pressing the West to side with him and Tehran in its fight against jihadists from the Islamic State group."I would like to note that our relations are developing quite actively," Putin told Rouhani at a meeting on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly meeting."As for our cooperation, we are satisfied with it, including in the international arena, in the fight against terrorism."Rouhani likewise lavished praise on the "good consensus" between Tehran and Moscow on the instability in the Middle East and said the two countries "play a very important role" in ensuring security of the region."All in the world now understand that without solving the problems of the Middle East those problems will spill into other regions and engulf the entire world," he said.Both men were among the star turns on a day of frantic diplomacy in New York as they tried to tilt the situation over Syria in their favor.Putin -- who was set to meet US leader Barack Obama later Monday for the first time in two years -- has thrust himself back into the international spotlight with a lighting charge on the Syrian conflict after over 18 months of isolation by the West over Ukraine.Rouhani, meanwhile, gave a speech to the UN for the first time since Tehran edged in from the cold after signing a landmark deal with world powers over its nuclear program.
House leader calls for beefed-up US response to IS, Russia-Associated Press By DEB RIECHMANN-SEPT 28,15-YAHOONEWS
WASHINGTON (AP) — The front-runner to become the next leader of the U.S. House of Representatives denounced President Barack Obama's foreign policy on Monday, saying the U.S. has "lost the respect of allies and adversaries alike."Republican Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy, who spoke after the president addressed the United Nations, said the U.S. should consider putting some special forces on the ground in Iraq to help coordinate airstrikes against Islamic State militants.He also backed a no-fly zone in northern Syria to stem the flow of refugees, and provide a space for Syrian rebels to fight the militants — steps the White House has so far opposed."We must wage this war against radical Islam as if our life depended on it. Because it does," said McCarthy, who also reiterated his criticism of the international nuclear deal with Iran."We have lost the respect of allies and adversaries alike. We have isolated Israel while emboldening nations like Iran. We let North Korea threaten South Korea, Russia encroach on Ukraine and now China is asserting a greater sphere of influence," McCarthy said. "Wherever we look, the world is less safe and less secure because America is less engaged."McCarthy is a heavy favorite to replace John Boehner in one of the most powerful jobs in Washington and become second in line to succeed the president.The speaker announced his resignation Friday amid growing discontent among some of the most conservative members of the House Republican conference. Reporters rushed McCarthy after his speech, but he wouldn't confirm that he was going to run for the speakership, even though it's widely expected that he will.

Obama-Putin handshake unlikely to end Western sanctions By Andrew Rettman-sept 28,15-euobserver
BRUSSELS, Today, 13:59-Ukraine is concerned that Putin's intervention in Syria could see the EU and US end Russia sanctions as part of a new alliance to fight the Islamic State (IS) group.But Western diplomats and analysts say it is not so simple.Russian leader Vladimir Putin will on Monday (28 September), in a speech at the UN assembly in New York, propose the creation of a new “co-ordinating structure” to fight IS and to mitigate the refugee crisis.He will, the same day, meet US leader Barack Obama for the first time since Russia invaded Ukraine.They will, diplomats predict, shake hands in front of cameras.It comes after Russia sent ground troops and fighter jets to Syria in the past month.It also comes before EU economic sanctions on Russia expire in January unless all member states agree to prolong them.Putin’s idea - that Russia and the West fight alongside Russia’s ally, Syrian leader Bashar Al-Assad - is gaining traction. Germany and the UK have said that, while Assad must go in a future Syria deal, they might let him stay in place until conditions improve for a political transition.The German vice-chancellor, Sigmar Gabriel, from the centre-left SPD party in the German coalition, went further."Everyone should be smart enough to know you can't stick to sanctions permanently on the one hand and ask for co-operation [in Syria] on the other hand”, he told press on Friday.His remarks met with criticism in Berlin.“We don't want to mix things [Syria and Ukraine] up”, German foreign minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier told ARD, a TV broadcaster.“ We won't let ourselves be blackmailed”, Peter Altmaier, German Chancellor Angela Merkel’s chief of staff, told Der Tagesspiegel, a newspaper.US diplomats are also saying they're ready to increase Russia sanctions if need be.But the chatter has done little to reassure Kiev.“We’ll be watching Obama’s body language, the tone of his statement, very carefully”, a Ukrainian diplomat told EUobserver.“We also have concerns whether Merkel will stay firm ... We don’t want Syria to lead to another Yalta”, the diplomat added, referring to a post-WWII pact between the West and Russia on the division of Europe.Russia’s status-For EU diplomats, Putin’s Syria gambit is more about rebuilding Russia's reputation in the long term than about a quick fix on sanctions, however.“He wants to change the narrative and to deflect attention from Ukraine”, a senior EU diplomat told this website.“He wants to ride into New York on a golden horse and to say: ‘America was wrong and I was right from the start. You can’t defeat IS without Assad'.”A second EU diplomat said: “It’s not about getting carte blanche on Ukraine. It’s about Putin's ambition to restore Russia as a great power at the centre of the global security architecture, to show that it’s indispensible to the solution of any important crisis”.Marc Pierini, a former EU ambassador to Turkey, who now works for the Carnegie Europe think tank, agreed.“Things don’t happen so neatly: You give me this and I give you that”, he told this website on the sanctions theory.“Putin wants to show: ‘We’re here and we matter. You [the West] don’t get to decide whether Assad stays or goes’," he added.“Putin annexed Crimea and Obama did nothing. He invaded east Ukraine and Obama still did almost nothing. Now he wants to show that he’s calling the shots in Syria whether Obama likes it or not”.-Symbolism-Analysts also note that Russia’s intervention in Syria is more “symbolic” than decisive.Pierini said it has deployed some 200 soldiers and 24 fighter jets and attack helicopters in Latakia, on Syria’s Mediterranean coast.He said it may be enough to keep Assad in power a bit longer, but not to defeat IS.Mark Galeotti, a Russia expert at New York University, said Latakia’s barracks can house 2,000 soldiers.He said it is enough for a small force to protect the base and to house the air crews and their ground support staff, but little more.He noted it is too risky for Putin to “surge” his best troops into Syria because it would leave him vulnerable in Ukraine.He also noted it takes 10 days for a round-trip for Russian ships - carrying the petrol, spare parts, and ammunition that would be needed to sustain a military campaign - from Russia's Black Sea base to Syria.Beyond Ukraine-For his part, Germany’s Steinmeier, speaking to ARD, also said: “I hope that co-operation [with Russia] in the matter of Syria can help us to move forward in Ukraine”.For some Polish diplomats Steinmeier’s aside also indicates that Germany is wobbly on sanctions.But for Galeotti, the idea is that a Syria coalition could help Putin to make a peace deal on Ukraine and save face.There’s little sign he is preparing to let go easily.Ukraine says Russia has 9,000 soldiers on its territory. Its puppet regimes in east Ukraine are also consolidating power with “elections” in October and November.But Galeotti said Russia’s hybrid force isn’t strong enough to conquer more ground.“There’s a sense [in Russia] that, until now, there’s been no point in talking to the US - that the West just wants Russia to capitulate on Ukraine. And it can’t do that”, he told EUobserver.“But co-operation in the Middle East could allow Putin to extricate himself from Ukraine", he added.“Even my most optimistic contacts in the [Russian] foreign ministry don't expect a swift end to sanctions. They’re looking for cracks in the diplomatic wall around Russia ... they think there's genuine scope for co-operation [on IS] and they're looking for a statement that Russia can be part of a solution, not just a problem".

Abbas out of options, out of synch with angry Palestinians-Associated Press By KARIN LAUB and MOHAMMED DARAGHMEH-SEPT 28,15-YAHOONEWS
RAMALLAH, West Bank (AP) — Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas has threatened to drop a "bombshell" in a speech to the United Nations this week — prompting speculation that he will sever ties with Israel over its settlement expansion and other hard-line policies.The warning reflects desperation, but may not signal action.Abbas' hopes of setting up a Palestinian state through negotiations with Israel have been derailed, and a new poll shows that a majority of Palestinians want the 80-year-old to resign and dissolve his self-rule government, the Palestinian Authority. Many no longer believe a two-state solution is realistic and support political violence.Abbas could try to align himself with a frustrated public by shifting to a more confrontational policy, including ending security cooperation with Israeli troops against a shared foe, the Islamic militant Hamas group.It's a risky move that could cost him vital foreign aid, trigger chaos and end his 10-year rule. Abbas aides have suggested in recent days that despite his threats, he will make do with a general warning to Israel at the U.N.Yet more indecision could further turn Palestinians against him. The mood in the West Bank is explosive, with anger mounting over Palestinian Authority mismanagement, perceived Israeli threats to a major holy site in Jerusalem and a sense of having been abandoned by the Arab world, said veteran pollster Khalil Shikaki."If a spark comes along, there is absolutely no doubt that the Palestinian situation today is very, very fertile for a major eruption," he said.Here is a look at what lies ahead.___ON THE SIDELINES?-Just three years ago, Abbas was the center of attention at the annual U.N. gathering of world leaders. He asked for, and later received, General Assembly recognition of Palestine as a non-member observer state in the West Bank, Gaza and east Jerusalem, the lands Israel captured in 1967.But when Abbas addresses the General Assembly on Wednesday other regional conflicts, including the war against the Islamic State group and the migration crisis in Europe, are likely to take the spotlight. President Barack Obama made no mention of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict in his speech to the General Assembly on Monday, drawing rare public Palestinian criticism."Does Obama believe that he can defeat Islamic State and terrorism or achieve security and stability in the Middle East by ignoring the continued Israeli occupation...?" Abbas aide Saeb Erekat said in a statement published by the official Palestinian news agency WAFA.Washington appears to have little interest in mounting another major push for peace. A nine-month effort by Secretary of State John Kerry collapsed last year because Abbas and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu couldn't even agree on the ground rules. Netanyahu, unlike some predecessors, refuses to recognize Israel's pre-1967 frontier as a starting point for border talks.____WHAT CAN ABBAS DO?-Statehood through negotiations has been his sole strategy for decades and he opposes violence. With those options off the table, Abbas tried to gain leverage by courting further international recognition, including by joining institutions such as the International Criminal Court.But any possible ICC war crimes case against Israel for settling on occupied lands is years away, if it's possible at all. And symbolic victories, such as the right to raise the Palestinian flag outside U.N. headquarters this year, mean little to Palestinians struggling with unemployment, rising prices and Israeli movement restrictions.In recent weeks, Abbas resorted to threats to remind the world that the Israeli-Palestinian conflict must not fester. He warned he is fast-tracking his retirement, hinted at dramatic changes in dealings with Israel and said he would "throw a bombshell" at the end of his U.N. speech. But he has not elaborated.____WHAT'S IN THE SPEECH?- Abbas will make his decision only after talks with Kerry and other Arab and European mediators in New York, aides said.In a weekend meeting, Kerry did not offer Abbas sufficient guarantees if he gives peace efforts another chance, Abbas adviser Ahmed Majdalani told Voice of Palestine radio.Palestinian U.N. ambassador Riyad Mansour told the station that Abbas' speech is to "present steps to create facts on the ground toward setting up statehood, the statehood how we see it, how the international community sees it, not how the occupation (Israel) sees it."Abbas will likely complain about Israeli actions, including settlement expansion and army incursions into autonomous Palestinian areas, said Majdalani and another aide, Nabil Shaath.They suggested the Palestinian leader will not go beyond general warnings, but Shaath cautioned that last-minute changes are possible.Some senior Palestinians raised the idea that Abbas request U.N. trusteeship, but the option was dropped on legal grounds, officials said.____HOW DURABLE IS THE STATUS QUO?-The Oslo Accords that set up Palestinian autonomy in the mid-1990s were meant as a stepping stone toward Palestinian statehood. Instead, a temporary arrangement has largely remained in place despite wars, uprisings and political crises. Hamas seized Gaza in 2007, but Abbas still administers 38 percent of the West Bank, with the rest of that territory and Israeli-annexed east Jerusalem under sole Israeli control.The arrangement serves both sides to some extent. Israel has given itself free rein on security, while successfully subcontracting some security tasks to Abbas' forces. The Palestinian Authority, supported by millions of dollars in foreign aid, provides public services, relieving Israel of its costly burden as military occupier.The Palestinian Authority has become the largest employer in the West Bank, while the political class enjoys many perks, such as preferential access to housing and jobs."Abbas is not going to dissolve the Palestinian Authority because there is an internal interest in maintaining it, the privileges, the international pressure and the international money," said Ali Jerbawi, a former Palestinian Cabinet minister.___WHAT DOES ISRAEL WANT?-Netanyahu has accused Abbas of fomenting violence through alleged incitement, as tensions have risen around Jerusalem's most sensitive holy site, revered by Muslims and Jews. But despite the rhetoric, Netanyahu appears to have little interest in seeing Abbas go.Netanyahu faces growing international isolation due to anger over settlement construction and stalled peace efforts. The collapse of the Oslo accords would raise pressure on Netanyahu to try to resolve the Palestinian issue. Netanyahu has called for a resumption of peace talks, but has not said what he might offer.___WHAT'S NEXT?-Abbas has lost Palestinian public opinion, according to last week's poll by the Palestinian Center for Policy and Survey Research, based on 1,270 respondents, with an error margin of 3 percentage points."Two-thirds of the public want him out, they demand that he resign," said pollster Shikaki.But there is no clear path to change.If presidential elections were held today, Abbas would lose to Ismail Haniyeh, the top Hamas leader in Gaza. However, elections are unlikely because of the political and geographic split between the West Bank and Gaza. No obvious successor to Abbas has emerged from within his inner circle.Palestinian anger is rising— in some ways reminiscent of the mood before the outbreak of the second uprising 15 years ago, Shikaki said. At the same time, Palestinians are still scarred from the harsh Israeli clampdown following the bombings and shootings of the last revolt, and there might be little appetite for renewed hardship.Mohammed Ennayah, a pharmacist in the West Bank, said Abbas failed and should resign."There is no hope to have a state, not in peace and not in war," he said. "After 25 years of the peace process, we have more settlements and more settlers. Where would we build the state?"___Laub reported from Jericho, West Bank.

World leaders at UN lay out sharply different views on Syria-Associated Press By CARA ANNA-SEPT 28,15-YAHOONEWS
UNITED NATIONS (AP) — Vladimir Putin played it cool, Barack Obama was earnest but firm and Iran's president walked in smiling. World leaders glided through the opening day of a U.N. gathering Monday that aims to wrestle with the globe's biggest crises — a historic flood of refugees, the rise of threats like the Islamic State group and the conflict in Syria.The U.N. secretary-general for the first time called for the civil war in Syria to be referred to the International Criminal Court, while Iranian President Hassan Rouhani said Iran's recent nuclear deal with world powers had a broader goal: "We want to suggest a new and constructive way to recreate the international order."Chinese President Xi Jinping made a $1 billion pledge for U.N. peace efforts.And Jordan's King Abdullah II made a heartfelt defense of the kinder side of the Muslim world in the face of "the outlaws of Islam that operate globally today.""When and how did fear and intimidation creep so insidiously into our conversation when there is so much more to be said about the love of God?" he asked, also quoting the Quran on mercy.The king has called the rise of extremist groups like the Islamic State, and the crises they have caused, "a third world war, and I believe we must respond with equal intensity." Jordan borders both Syria and Iraq, and Syrian refugees now make up 20 percent of Jordan's population. Iraq and Turkey also groan under the strain of millions of refugees.In his state of the world address to leaders from the U.N.'s 193 member states, Ban Ki-Moon called for a political solution to the conflict in Syria, now well into its fifth year with more than a quarter of a million people killed.Ban said five countries "hold the key" to a political solution to Syria: Russia, the U.S., Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Iran. Obama and Putin, hours ahead of their first face-to-face meeting in nearly a year, gave no sign of closing their deep divide on the Syrian crisis.Obama said of Syrian President Bashar Assad, "when a dictator slaughters tens of thousands of his own people, that is not a matter of a nation's internal affairs." The U.S. is prepared to work with any country, including Russia and Iran, to resolve Syria's conflict, Obama said.The U.S. president also took jabs at Russia and China, without naming names. "The strong men of today become the spark of revolution tomorrow," Obama warned. And he added in a critique of restrictions on speech, "You can control access to information ... but you cannot turn a lie into truth."Putin, who showed up at the U.N. gathering for the first time in a decade and was not at Russia's seat in the chamber when Obama spoke, called for the creation of a broad international coalition against terror, following his country's surprising moves in recent weeks to increase its military presence in Syria and to share intelligence on the Islamic State group with Iran, Iraq and Syria.The Russian leader dismissed the West's concerns about his country's ambitions in Syria and called it "an enormous mistake to refuse to cooperate" with the Syrian government.Ukraine's table just in front of the speaker's stand was empty as Putin spoke. The country struggles against pro-Russia separatists in its east, while Russia denies supporting them.Rouhani appeared to align with Putin's call for a U.N. Security Council resolution consolidating the fight against terror, saying "we propose that the fight against terrorism be incorporated into a binding international document and no country be allowed to use terrorism for the purpose of intervention in the affairs of other countries."Meanwhile, Obama announced that more than 30,000 new troops and police have been pledged to U.N. peacekeeping missions from more than 50 countries. He spoke at a high-level meeting chaired by the U.S. to strengthen and modernize peacekeeping, which increasingly faces threats from extremist groups while being severely stretched in personnel and equipment.Other issues at the center of this week's discussions include the refugee and migrant crisis, the largest since the upheaval of World War II.Ban warned that resources to address them are dangerously low. "The global humanitarian system is not broken; it is broke," he said. The U.N. has just half of what it needs to help people in Iraq, South Sudan and Yemen, and just a third of what's needed for Syria.The U.N. chief, in unusually hard-hitting words, also blamed "proxy battles of others" for driving the fighting in Yemen, and he warned against "the dangerous drift" in resolving the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, saying it is essential for the international community to pressure both sides to re-engage.Others speaking Monday included French President Francois Hollande, who again declared that Assad "cannot be part of the solution" to the Syrian conflict, and Cuban President Raul Castro, who also has a meeting planned with Obama.Some, including Obama, Xi and Hollande, already addressed the General Assembly over the weekend during a separate global summit on sweeping new U.N. development goals for the next 15 years.___Associated Press writers Edith M.

Hurricane Marty closes in on western Mexico-AFP-SEPT 28,15-YAHOONEWS
Acapulco (Mexico) (AFP) - Hurricane Marty was churning Monday in the Pacific Ocean off the coast of Mexican resort town Acapulco, causing authorities to shutter schools and send 200,000 students home.The storm was "almost stalled off the coast" which could make it more dangerous since that could increase the volume of rain, said National Weather Service chief Alberto Hernandez."It is already generating a huge amount of rain" in Guerrero state, he added. Authorities there scrambled to get students from primary to university level home to safety.At 2100 GMT, Marty was packing top sustained winds of 80 miles per hour (130 kilometers per hour), and was located 145 miles west of Acapulco, the US National Hurricane Center said.The Category One storm was moving northeast at 6 miles per hour. Forecasters believe it could stay just off the coast but will be so close that a slight turn could see its center -- and high winds -- slam inland.In either case, the hurricane will create driving rains, they warned.Two years ago, mountainous Guerrero state was simultaneously hammered by hurricanes Ingrid and Manuel, killing 157 people.
