 abercrombie outletUS President Barack Obama has said there is an "emerging consensus" that European countries must now focus on jobs and growth.Speaking after the G8 summit of some of the world's leading economies, he said the US was confident that Europe can meet its challenges.President Obama said leaders had made good progress on a range of issues.In addition the eurozone crisis, they discussed Iran, Afghanistan and global energy supply. The leaders of France, Germany, the US, the UK, Italy, Japan, Canada and Russia met at Camp David in the US state of Maryland. In an earlier communique, G8 leaders committed themselves to promoting growth alongside fiscal responsibility and affirmed that they wanted Greece to stay in the eurozone.The BBC's Paul Adams at Camp David says both that communique and Mr Obama's speech showed the US and French position had won out over Germany and Britain's pro-austerity stance.Energy worries Leaders attending the summit addressed a number of issues, including energy security, climate change and the situation in Iran, Afghanistan and North Korea. There was discussion of a broad release of national oil reserves to steady shaky energy markets when tough new sanctions on Iran's oil exports kick in. President Obama also announced that they had formed a new alliance to focus on food security with African leaders and the private sector.The focus, however, remained on the crisis in the eurozone. Speaking to reporters at the end of the summit, President Obama said: "As all of the leaders here today agree, growth and jobs must be our top priority."Emphasising that the United States had taken this approach to its own financial crisis, he said he was "confident" that European countries were moving in the right direction.But he acknowledged that the European situation was "more complicated" than America's. Earlier, the G8 leaders said "the right measures are not the same for each of us".

abercrombie saleAt its summit in Chicago this weekend, Nato is set to announce its new ballistic missile defence system has reached what it calls "interim operational capability".This means that the first phase of the controversial scheme to defend Nato territory against ballistic missile attack will be operational.But Nato's plans have many critics. Some wonder if the system will work - and question whether there really is a missile threat to Nato territory at all. Others fear it will poison relations between Russia and the West, delivering little real strategic benefit. Nato has watched the spread of ballistic missile technology with growing unease. If there is a potential ballistic missile threat to Nato countries then it can be summed up in one word - Iran.However, a leading expert on missile defence technology, Professor Theodore Postol of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, believes that this potential threat has been much overstated."The fundamental long-term threat from Iran is from nuclear weapons. But for now Iran does not have the bomb. A ballistic missile without a nuclear weapon," he says, "is like a terrorist bomber without an explosive vest." For this reason, he believes, "there is no realistic threat to troops, cities, oil refineries, and the like from Iranian ballistic missiles. They can simply not carry large enough conventional munitions to do extensive damage on impact, and they lack the accuracy to hit prescribed targets with reliability". More hardware But Nato leaders and planners look at Iran's continuing nuclear programme - and the steady improvement it has made to the range and capabilities of its missile forces - and are convinced that missile defence is, at the very least, a prudent insurance policy.The initial defensive screen being unveiled by Nato this weekend rests upon: a network of US early-warning satellites; a new high-powered X-Band radar based in Turkey; and at least one A... <a href="https://www.tulugarfavorito.com/social/m/events/view/Nato-s-missile-defence-shield-up-and-running">Read more</a>]]></description><pubDate>Mon, 21 May 2012 07:34:44 +0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
