nessuna audizione su qualsiasi candidato scelto dal capo di stato americano.

Ho un anno davanti a me, farò del mio lavoro "ha un messaggio di Barack Obama alla oppositori politici





H Senato degli Stati Uniti ha promesso di "congelare" il processo della Corte suprema e Barack Obama colpisce ancora: il presidente degli Stati Uniti ha promesso oggi di definire "entro settimane" un giudice sollecitando i senatori a fare il loro lavoro e non stare in piedi ostacoli al processo di ratifica della sua domanda.

Il leader dei repubblicani al Senato, Mitch Makonel ribadito ieri severamente che avrà luogo nel corpo che nessuna audizione su qualsiasi candidato scelto dal capo di stato americano.

"Ho un anno prima di me (;) faccio il mio lavoro", ha detto Obama dallo Studio Ovale, in risposta agli avversari politici che minacciano di attendere il prossimo presidente degli Stati Uniti, che si insedierà a gennaio 2017 per la nomina di un giudice che riempirà il vuoto lasciato dal giudice conservatore Antonin Skalia, scomparso 11 giorni fa.

"Definirei qualcuno e io lascerò il popolo americano a decidere se sono qualificati per la posizione, e se il Senato organizzare un udito e un voto", ha detto Obama.

"Secondo quello che vedo, l'ordine del giorno senatori non è compromessa", ha detto con un umore beffardo.

"Il più semplice per (repubblicani) sarebbe quello di soccombere alle voci più estreme all'interno del loro partito e non fare nulla. Ma il nostro lavoro per tutti è quello di adempiere ai nostri obblighi costituzionali ", ha aggiunto.

La Corte Suprema degli Stati Uniti ora enumera quattro giudici conservatori e quattro giudici progressisti persistente in tal modo il rischio di un pareggio nelle prossime decisioni dovranno prendere.

"La Costituzione dà al presidente il potere di nominare i giudici della Corte Suprema. Si tratta di un obbligo che prendo sul serio ", ha spiegato Obama in un testo pubblicato oggi in SCOTUSblog, un blog con argomenti della Corte Suprema dove si scrivono i giornalisti legali e specializzati.

In particular, stresses that the European Parliament has a formal Interparliamentary Commission for the EU's relations with FYROM, which does not adopt the name of M. Petir and that "any informal group of Members will have to respect it and to ensure that no It would create confusion. "
Finally, given that the creation of such informal groups and any application for the European Parliament premises is required to support the request from a political group, stresses that, "it is for the respective political groups to decide whether to finance the activities of these informal groups and grant or deny them access to conference facilities. "
M; thereby throwing the ball in the EPP says Mr. Papadimoulis, in a written statement
Below is the entire letter from Mr. Shultz:
Thank you for your letters of 14 and 15 January 2016, expressing your opposition to an initiative of MEP Ms Marijana Petir, set up an informal friendship group in Parliament under the name "Friends of Macedonia".
As you know, the European Parliament has a formal Interparliamentary Committee for the relations with the Republic of Macedonia (FYROM), which is one of many countries in the region seeking to join the European Union. This is our official body for the European Parliament's relations with that country and any informal group of Members will have to respect it and to ensure that no confusion.
I am well aware of the sensitivities surrounding the name of the country and the dispute with Greece over the use of the term "Macedonia", which is the name of a large region in northern Greece, therefore, given the temporary reference to the country as FYROM until a solution is found. Parliament shall pay particular attention to the use of the name Macedonia for all diplomatic, political and administrative purposes, which is the internationally recognized name of this country.
Article 34 of our Rules regulation provides for the establishment of parliamentary intergroups requires the support of at least three political groups and adopted at the beginning of each parliamentary term the Conference of Presidents. The Conference of Presidents adopted on December 11, 2014, 28 intergroups for this parliamentary term, which while not an official organ of Parliament and may not represent the views of Parliament, may use its facilities, subject to certain conditions and requirements.
Article 34 of the Regulation also refers to another "other informal parliamentary groups" who have no official status, do not enjoy any institutional support and do not represent the views or positions of the Parliament, but it is simply a recognition that Members may on occasion organize ad hoc working groups for specific topics that interest them. As part of our transparency obligations, such groups should be declared in advance and with the responsibility of participating members, the Administrative Unit MEP, if receiving some support in cash or kind (eg secretarial assistance), which if offered to the European Parliament MEPs in relation to the economic interests created (;) conflicts of interest.
All these informal groups, therefore, not be granted use of Parliament's facilities (rooms, staff, interests, etc.), unless the request is made on behalf of a political group. Therefore, it is for the respective political groups to decide whether to finance the activities of these informal groups and grant or deny them access to conference facilities.
Yours sincerely

négociations se sont intensifiées sur la formation d'un gouvernement en Espagne

négociations se sont intensifiées sur la formation d'un gouvernement en Espagne


Les partis de centre-gauche et de gauche à l'Espagne hier intensifié leurs négociations dans un effort pour sortir de l'impasse politique, deux mois après les élections nationales dans lesquelles aucun gagnant clair a émergé, même si leurs dirigeants ne sont pas encore parvenus à un accord sur la formation d'un gouvernement de coalition et éviter de nouvelles élections.

Le Parti socialiste, qui a terminé deuxième, en essayant hâte de parvenir à un accord avec les autres partis pour former un gouvernement de coalition. Son chef, Pedro Sanchez, théoriquement doit demander un vote de confiance de la Chambre le 3 Mars. Dans les élections du 20 Décembre aucune partie n'a même pas venu près de la majorité des sièges à la chambre basse. Le Parti populaire de centre-droit a remporté l'élection, mais n'a pas réussi à obtenir l'appui d'un nombre suffisant de membres de la Chambre de 350 sièges pour former un gouvernement.

Une réunion de quatre heures a eu lieu hier entre les socialistes, la Podemos ( "Nous") et deux petits partis de la gauche, l'impression que des progrès sont réalisés. "Nous sommes d'accord sur les priorités, il était un bon début, mais nous avons même pas quelque chose de solide», a déclaré Inigo Erechon ladite souche de Podemos, près de cinq heures après le début des négociations. Il a dit «prudemment optimiste». Le processus sera repris cet après-midi.

Les dirigeants des socialistes a cependant noté que les quatre partis ont une majorité de sièges.

"Nous avons convenu de l'ordre du jour" de l'affaire, a simplement dit Antonio Hernandez socialiste. "Nous sommes allés aux grandes questions."

Sanchez a rencontré hier après-midi avec le chef du parti centriste Thioudadanos ( "Citizens"), en explorant une alternative à un centre-gauche-droite gouvernement de l'Alliance. Le Podemos et Thioudadanos, deux nouvelles forces politiques qui en Décembre eu aucun siège au parlement, ont gagné des millions de votes du Parti populaire et les socialistes, chargés de la crise économique.

Pour parvenir à un accord par les socialistes et le Podemos devra surmonter les différences sur des questions telles que le référendum sur l'indépendance de la Catalogne. Si, au contraire formé un gouvernement de coalition des socialistes et Thioudadanos vous en aurez besoin - peu probable dans ce crémerie- Podemos de soutien ou Parti populaire.

Albert Rivera, le chef de Thioudadanos a laissé entendre que les chances sont égales pour former un gouvernement ou de l'abandon de l'effort, dans des déclarations à la station de radio Cadena Ser. Si Sanchez ne parvient pas à former un gouvernement et ses opposants proposent aucune alternative viable, de nouvelles élections pourraient avoir lieu en Juin en Espagne.

La intensificación de las negociaciones para formar un gobierno en España

La intensificación de las negociaciones para formar un gobierno en España


Los partidos de centro-izquierda y de izquierda a España ayer intensificó sus negociaciones en un esfuerzo por romper el estancamiento político, dos meses después de las elecciones nacionales en las que surgió un claro ganador, aunque sus líderes aún no han logrado llegar a un acuerdo sobre la formación de un gobierno de coalición y evitar nuevas elecciones.

El PSOE, que quedó en segundo lugar, tratando a toda prisa para llegar a un acuerdo con otros partidos para formar un gobierno de coalición. Su líder, Pedro Sánchez, en teoría, debe solicitar un voto de confianza de la Cámara como el 3 de marzo. En las elecciones del 20 de diciembre ninguna de las partes ni siquiera se ha acercado a una mayoría de escaños en la cámara baja. El Partido Popular de centro-derecha ganó las elecciones, pero no pudo asegurar el apoyo de un número suficiente de miembros de la Cámara de 350 escaños para formar un gobierno.

Una reunión de cuatro horas celebrada ayer entre los socialistas, el de Podemos ( "Nosotros") y dos partidos más pequeños de la izquierda crea la impresión de que se está avanzando. "Estamos de acuerdo en las prioridades, que era un buen comienzo, pero no tienen incluso algo sólido", dijo dijo Iñigo Erechon cepa de Podemos, casi cinco horas después del inicio de las conversaciones. Dijo "cautelosamente optimista". El proceso se reanudará esta tarde.

Los ejecutivos de los Socialistas sin embargo señaló que las cuatro partes tienen una mayoría de escaños.

"Estamos de acuerdo en la agenda" del acuerdo, simplemente dijo Antonio Hernández Socialista. "Fuimos a los grandes problemas."

El Sánchez se reunió ayer por la tarde, junto con el líder del partido de centro Thioudadanos ( "ciudadanos"), la exploración de una alternativa a un centro-izquierda-derecha alianza de gobierno. La Podemos y Thioudadanos, dos nuevas fuerzas políticas que en diciembre no tenían asiento en el parlamento, ganaron millones de votos del PP y los socialistas, pagan la crisis económica.

Para llegar a un acuerdo por los socialistas y la de Podemos tendrá que superar las diferencias sobre cuestiones tales como el referéndum sobre la independencia de Cataluña. Si en vez formado un gobierno de coalición de socialistas y Thioudadanos que lo necesitará - poco probable en este caso- de Podemos de apoyo o Partido Popular.

Albert Rivera, el líder de Thioudadanos dio a entender que lo más probable es igual a formar un gobierno o abandono de esfuerzo, en declaraciones a la Cadena Ser. Si Sánchez no logra formar un gobierno y sus oponentes no ofrecen ninguna alternativa viable, nuevas elecciones podrían celebrarse en junio en España.

Intensified negotiations on forming a government in Spain

Intensified negotiations on forming a government in Spain


The parties of the center-left and left to Spain yesterday intensified their negotiations in an effort to break the political deadlock, two months after the national elections in which no clear winner emerged, although their leaders have not yet managed to reach agreement on the formation of a coalition government and avert new elections.

The Socialist Party, which came second, trying hurriedly to reach agreement with other parties to form a coalition government. Its leader, Pedro Sanchez, theoretically must request a vote of confidence from the House as the 3rd of March. In the elections of 20 December no party has not even come close to a majority of seats in the lower house. The center-right People's Party won the election, but failed to secure the support of a sufficient number of members of the House of 350 seats to form a government.

A four-hour meeting held yesterday between the Socialists, the Podemos ( "We") and two smaller parties of the Left created the impression that progress is being made. "We agree on priorities, it was a good start, but we have not even something solid," said Inigo Erechon said strain of Podemos, almost five hours after the start of the talks. He said "cautiously optimistic." The process will be resumed this afternoon.

Executives of Socialists however noted that the four parties have a majority of seats.

"We agreed on the agenda" of the deal, simply said Antonio Hernandez Socialist. "We walked to the big issues."

The Sanchez met yesterday afternoon along with the leader of the centrist party Thioudadanos ( "Citizens"), exploring an alternative to a government center-left-right alliance. The Podemos and Thioudadanos, two new political forces that by December had no seat in parliament, won millions of votes from the Popular Party and the Socialists, charged the economic crisis.

To reach an agreement by the Socialists and the Podemos will have to overcome differences on issues such as the referendum on the independence of Catalonia. If instead formed a coalition government of Socialists and Thioudadanos you will need it - unlikely in this case- support Podemos or the People's Party.

Albert Rivera, the leader of Thioudadanos hinted that chances are equal to form a government or abandonment of effort, in statements to the Cadena Ser radio station. If Sanchez fails to form a government and its opponents offer no viable alternative, new elections could be held in June in Spain.
