EU parliament elects youngest ever president

JAN 19: Ms. Metsola, 43, has a record of being anti-abortion but has billed herself as pro-LGBT rights. The Maltese national takes over the role of David Sassoli, 65, who died last week after a serious illness. She is one of three women in the top EU jobs, along with the heads of the European Commission and Central Bank. But taking questions from journalists on Tuesday, she was asked more than once about her views on women's reproductive rights. She's been criticized for her voting record on the issue and, in 2015, joined other Maltese MEPs in saying they were "categorically against abortion". A predominantly Catholic country, Malta is the only EU member state to have a complete ban on abortion. However, Ms. Metsola has insisted she will represent the European Parliament's view on sexual and reproductive health, rather than her own. The parliament has, she said, "repeatedly called for these rights to be better protected". "My position is that of the European Parliament." A member of the center-right European People's Party, she is a lawyer by training. She's long been part of the Brussels bubble although addressing MEPs she urged the EU to "burst through it". Her previous jobs have included acting as legal adviser to British politician Baroness Ashton, who was then the EU's top diplomat. But it is her Maltese roots that were of more interest immediately after her election by MEPs. Malta has a population of just over 500,000 people and is the EU's smallest member state. "We've never had so many Maltese in the room!" she exclaimed with pleasure as she noted the number of her fellow countrymen and women in the Strasbourg press pack. The warmth was reciprocated: "Congratulations," said one journalist. "As Maltese, we're very proud that you were elected for such a prestigious position." Malta has historic ties with the UK, securing independence in 1964.

2nd LD Writethru: Ex-S.Korean president Park Geun-hye set free

Former South Korean President Park Geun-hye was set free Friday under a special pardon granted by the incumbent President Moon Jae-in, according to the Yonhap news agency. Park, who had been imprisoned for 57 months over corruption charges, reportedly received the certificate of pardon at a hospital in Seoul, where she has been treated for over one month due to her chronic shoulder and waist pain. The 69-year-old, after receiving shoulder surgery in 2019, allegedly planned to get treatment at the hospital until Feb. 2 next year. A week earlier, the justice ministry announced that Park was included in the list of Moon's special amnesty for the new year. Park was sentenced to a combined 22-year prison term and had served the sentence since 2017 after being impeached and removed from office over corruption charges. According to the presidential Blue House, Park's deteriorating health was considered to make the pardon decision. Park will be protected by the presidential security service, but she will not be subject to other privileges as a former president, including the provision of special pensions and personal secretaries, for her conviction.

Biden says to run for president in 2024 if in good health

U.S. President Joe Biden said Wednesday that he will run for reelection in 2024 if he is in good health at the time. "Yes," he said when asked by host David Muir if he plans to run for reelection, in an interview aired Wednesday on ABC's World News Tonight. "But look, I'm a great respecter of fate. Fate has intervened in my life many, many times. If I'm in the health I'm in now, if I'm in good health, then in fact, I would run again," he said. Muir asked Biden whether he still wants to run if his opponent turns out to be former President Donald Trump again. "You're trying to tempt me now," Biden answered with a laughter. "Sure. Why would I not run against Donald Trump for the nominee? That'll increase the prospect of running."
