DAILY ALERT HEADLINES
FROM TODAY'S DAILY ALERT
  Thursday, June 20, 2013
News Resources - North America, Europe, and Asia:
  • Iran's Rowhani Rules Out Halt to Uranium Enrichment
    Hassan Rowhani, Iran's president-elect, on Monday ruled out a halt to Iran's controversial uranium enrichment program. He also said the U.S. must recognize Iran's nuclear rights if it wanted to hold nuclear talks. (AFP-Telegraph-UK)
        See also Russia: Iran Ready to Stop 20-Percent Enrichment - Jim Heintz
    Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said Tuesday that Iran has confirmed that it is ready to halt production of uranium enriched to 20%. "The international community should respond appropriately to the constructive moves by the Iranian side, including step-by-step halting and cancellation of sanctions," Lavrov said.
        Any halt in 20% enrichment would not necessarily mean any drawdown in enrichment capabilities; the labs could concentrate on producing more lower-grade enriched uranium. (AP-TIME)
  • Israel: Kerry's Efforts Helped Calm the West Bank
    Maj.-Gen. Nitzan Alon, who heads the IDF Central Command, said Tuesday that U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry's efforts helped calm the situation in the West Bank. "The last couple of months of very intensive American involvement also had some positive influence on the ground," Alon told the Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs. (AP-Washington Post)
  • A-List Celebration for Israeli President's 90th Birthday - Jodi Rudoren and Isabel Kershner
    At a gala in honor of Israeli President Shimon Peres, the world's oldest leader who turns 90 in August, there were former statesmen (Bill Clinton, Mikhail Gorbachev), celebrities (Robert DeNiro, Sharon Stone), scholars and scions (five Nobel laureates and authors of 1,412 books, all with a collective net worth topping $24 billion, according to organizers), gathered Tuesday at Jerusalem's convention center to fete Mr. Peres, whose public life has paralleled that of the modern State of Israel.
        "We, in Britain, have our queen, and you have your Shimon," declared former British prime minister and Middle East envoy Tony Blair. Clinton cracked that Peres was "the last living Israeli who knew King David." A protege of David Ben-Gurion, Israel's first prime minister, after helping establish early Jewish settlements in the heart of the West Bank, Peres shared the Nobel Peace Prize for the Oslo accords with the Palestinians.
