In her first public meeting after a summer break in the tiny village of Brachay in northeaste France, Le Pen portrayed herself as the sole credible defender of law and order and national unity, saying the best way to combat terrorism was the ballot paper. "This referendum on France belonging to the European Union, I will do it. Yes it is possible to change things. Look at the Brits, they chose their destiny, they chose independence ... We can again be a free, proud and independent people," she said, Reuters reported. The National Front was the only major French political party to call for Britons to vote to leave the European Union, hoping Brexit would boost its own euroskeptic agenda at home. Le Pen's increasingly popular party thrives on anti-Europe and anti-immigration sentiment and opinion polls see her making it to an early May run-off in France's presidential election, but losing that second round to a mainstream candidate, as a majority of voters do not want her as president. ,france,francescas,france flag,france map,frances bean cobain,france news,france 24,france national team,francesca eastwood,francesca battistelli ...ادامه مطلب

In a message to his Vietnamese counterpart, Tran Dai Quang, on Friday, President Rouhani congratulated him on the occasion, which is celebrated on September 2 every year. He further expressed the hope that through efforts made by the officials of the Islamic Republic and the Socialist Republic of Vietnam, bilateral ties would expand in all political, cultural and economic areas. Vietnam’s National Day is a national holiday which commemorates the Vietnam Declaration of Independence from France on September 2, 1945. Japan occupied Vietnam during World War II but allowed the French to remain and exert some influence. At the war’s end in August 1945, a power vacuum was created in Vietnam. Capitalizing on this, the Viet Minh launched the “August Revolution” across the country to seize govement offices. Emperor Bao Dai abdicated on August 25, 1945, ending the Nguyen Dynasty. On September 2, 1945, at Ba Dinh Square, Ho Chi Minh, leader of the communist Viet Minh organization, declar, ...ادامه مطلب

"Today is a national day of shame, a day on which senators started to rip apart the country's constitution and a day on which they begin to debate punishing an innocent woman, whose only crime was being honest," he said on Thursday. According to Lula, the senators are not trying to depose Rousseff, but instead cancelling the votes of the 54 million citizens who re-elected her in 2014. Lula also criticized the administration of interim President Michel Temer, which he sees as trampling the Constitution to grab power, Xinhua reported. "They found a way to get to power without having to run in an election, via a coup in the Congress. I have nothing personal against Temer. I just wish he knew that it would be dignified if he, as an expert in constitutional law, did not accept to come to power through a coup. He should say he is going to run in 2018, to find out whether he would be elected by the vote of the Brazilian people," he said. The former president also criticized measures taken by , ...ادامه مطلب

Iran lost to defending Olympic champion Russia in straight sets (25-23, 25-16, 25-20) in Pool B of the men’s volleyball touament at Rio 2016 Olympic Games. “It is very important for Iran to move into the second round since it is its first time in the Olympics.

If they play under their level and we play above ours, we can surprise them." "We will go out to give a good try and who knows what can happen.

Four firefighters were injured, three of them seriously, by one of the fires, in the nearby Herault region, he said.

Vitrolles officials told NBC News that more residents were likely to be evacuated as fire crews ramped up efforts to keep the flames out of Marseille, the third-largest city in France and capital of the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region.

Speaking at a television talk show on Monday night, Head of Iran's Hajj and Pilgrimage Organization Saeed Ohadi said the country’s Foreign Ministry has been assigned the task of handling the Mina tragedy case via legal and political channels, adding that a legal committee has been formed to deal with the issue. He noted that the Foreign Ministry’s consular department is going to release the results of its efforts to restore the rights of the “Mina martyrs.” Ohadi added that a delegation from the ministry will visit France to pursue the case as France is playing the role of a mediator. He once again took a swipe at the Saudis for lack of cooperation, saying the families of the victims or those injured in the crush have not yet received any compensation from the Riyadh regime.

The effort to plant the seeds of white nationalism in the political mainstream, where they might blossom into pro-white political coalitions that appeal to a broader swath of white voters, will not be easy, according to the chairman of the American Nazi Party. But Rocky Suhayda thinks there is one political figure who presents a “real opportunity” to lessen the load. Who is it? Donald Trump, the Republican nominee for president. “Now, if Trump does win, okay, it’s going to be a real opportunity for people like white nationalists, acting intelligently to build upon that, and to go and start — you know how you have the black political caucus and what not in Congress and everything — to start building on something like that,” Mr Suhayda declared on his radio program last month, the Independent reported on Monday. “It doesn’t have to be anti-, like the movement’s been for decades, so much as it has to be pro-white,” he added. “You know what I’m saying? It’s kind of hard to go and call us bigots if we don’t go around and act like a bigot. That’s what the movement should contemplate. All right.” Audio from the radio program was posted by BuzzFeed’s Andrew Kaczynski, who noted that Suhayda has in the past avoided making statements about Mr. Trump out of conce that he might harm the businessman’s candidacy. Yet, Mr. Kaczynski reported, in an American Nazi Party report from September, the chairman argued that Mr. Trump’s rhetoric revealed the secret popularity of the party’s messages. “We have a wonderful OPPORTUNITY here folks, that may never come again, at the RIGHT time,” Mr. Suhayda wrote, according to BuzzFeed. “Donald Trump’s campaign statements, if nothing else, have SHOWN that ‘our views’ are NOT so ‘unpopular’ as the Political Correctness crowd have told everyone they are!”Mr. Suhayda is far from the first avowed white supremacist to publicize his support and enthusiasm for Trump. Earlier this year, Rachel Pendergraft — the national organizer for the Knights Party, , ...ادامه مطلب

Powered by boosts in support from women, Catholics and the college-educated, Clinton leads the presidential race by 50 percent to 42 percent in the latest Washington Post/ABC News poll of registered voters -- up from 4 percentage points in mid-July, the Politico reported. Among likely voters, Clinton bests Trump 51 to 44 percent. When Libertarian Gary Johnson and Green Party nominee Jill Stein are included, Clinton leads Trump 45 to 37 with registered voters, followed by 8 percent for Johnson and 4 percent for Stein. Seventy-three percent of those surveyed, including 59 percent of Republicans, said they disapprove of Trump's recent feud with the Khans, parents of a Muslim-American Army captain killed in Iraq in 2004. Clinton has opened a wide lead among women in particular -- 58 percent to his 35 percent. Among college-educated women, she leads Trump by 19 percentage points, 57 percent to 38 percent. Trump leads Clinton by 10 points among men, 51 percent to 41 percent. But Clinton is leading by 6 points among college-educated whites, a group typically won by Republicans. She also has picked up support among Catholics, a key swing vote in recent elections, 51 percent to 45 percent. The poll also highlight's Trump's struggles in consolidating the GOP behind his candidacy -- he has the support of just 83 percent of Republicans, compared with 92 percent of Democrats for Clinton. Among Democrats and Democratic-leaning independents who backed Beie Sanders in the Democratic primary, 86 percent now support Clinton; Trump, in contrast, has the backing of only 74 percent of Republicans and leaners who preferred another candidate in the GOP primary. Clinton has also seen a modest uptick in favorability since the previous survey, moving from 42 percent to 48 percent. Her unfavorability rating, while still high, is now 50 percent, down from a peak of 55 percent in June. The poll was conducted by landline and cell phones from Aug. 1-4 in English and Spanish, using a random nation, ...ادامه مطلب

The week-long stoppage began Tuesday and Friday saw Paris' other main airport Orly cancel 20 percent of the carrier's flights with further medium-haul cancellations likely later in the day, the sources said, AFP reported. Roissy was maintaining more than nine out of ten long-haul and three quarters of medium-haul flights. Management said in a statement the carrier would maintain 80 percent of Saturday flights -- the same figure forecast across Friday. Unions representing around half of the strikers called the stoppage after marathon talks failed to reach a breakthrough on renewing a collective labor accord on rules, pay and promotions that expires in October. Management want to limit the extension of the agreement to 17 months, whereas unions want between three and five years. The new CEO of the Air France-KLM group, Jean-Marc Janaillac, told daily Le Figaro Thursday that the strike was "regrettable and aggressive", coming at the height of the holiday travel period. Unions retorted that management was being "obstinate" in insisting on a shorter accord time frame. Air France flights operated by low-cost airlines HOP! and Transavia, as well as KLM and Delta codeshares, were not affected by a stoppage which affected some 30,000 passengers Thursday. The pilots' last strike, which grounded around 20 percent of flights on June 11-14 right at the start of Euro 2016, hit France as it was gripped by social unrest over the Socialist govement's labor reforms.

The assailant has been named as 19-year-old Abdel Malik Petitjean, who was listed in June on France's "Fiche S" system of people posing a potential threat to national security after he tried to reach Syria from Turkey, AFP reported. Petitjean threatened France and directly addressed President Francois Hollande and Prime Minister Manuel Valls in the footage released by Daesh (also known as ISIL and ISIS). Dressed in a striped t-shirt, Petitjean speaks mostly in French but uses some Arabic phrases, and appears to be filming in a home. Petitjean, whose face was disfigured when he was shot dead by police, had been harder to identify than his accomplice Adel Kermiche, also 19. Investigators confirmed his identity after a DNA match with his mother. The pair pledged allegiance to Daesh in a video made before they stormed a church in the Normandy town of Saint-Etienne-du-Rouvray Tuesday and slit the throat of 86-year-old priest Jacques Hamel at the altar. The president of the Conference of Bishops in France Georges Pontier called on all Catholics in the country to observe a day of national prayers and fasting Friday "for our country and for peace in the world". The church attack came as the govement was already facing a firestorm of criticism over alleged security failings after the Bastille Day truck massacre in Nice that left 84 people dead two weeks ago.
