| Japan PM's support rebounds after difficult debate over security laws | | Monday, November 30, 2015 3:20 AM | |
|  Public support for Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe has rebounded from lows touched after the passage of controversial security laws that will allow the military to fight overseas for the first time since World War Two, media surveys showed. Voters still see no need to rush to revise the pacifist constitution, admired by many as the source of Japan's post-war peace but seen by critics as a symbol of defeat that hampers the nation's ability to defend itself, another opinion poll showed. Support for Abe's cabinet rose eight points to 49 percent in a weekend survey by the Nikkei business daily, a level not seen since debate over the security laws intensified last summer.

| Insight - On China's fringes, cyber spies raise their game | | Monday, November 30, 2015 3:16 AM | |
|  By Clare Baldwin, James Pomfret and Jeremy Wagstaff HONG KONG/SINGAPORE (Reuters) - Almost a year after students ended pro-democracy street protests in Hong Kong, they face an online battle against what Western security experts say are China-sponsored hackers using techniques rarely seen elsewhere. Hackers have expanded their attacks to parking malware on popular file-sharing services including Dropbox and Google Drive to trap victims into downloading infected files and compromising sensitive information. Security experts say such techniques are only used by sophisticated hackers from China and Russia, usually for surveillance and information extraction.

| Planned Parenthood says Colorado shooter opposed abortion | | Monday, November 30, 2015 3:16 AM | |
|  By Keith Coffman COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (Reuters) - Planned Parenthood said on Sunday that news reports that the gunman who attacked its Colorado health clinic had uttered "no more baby parts" during his arrest showed the suspect was motivated by an anti-abortion agenda. The remark attributed to suspect Robert Lewis Dear was an apparent reference to Planned Parenthood's abortion activities and its role in delivering fetal tissue to medical researchers, a hot-button issue in the 2016 race for the presidency. "We now know the man responsible for the tragic shooting at PP's health center in Colorado was motivated by opposition to safe and legal abortion," the organization said on Twitter.

| Declaring "new beginning", EU and Turkey seal migrant deal | | Monday, November 30, 2015 3:12 AM | |
|  By Francesco Guarascio and Robin Emmott BRUSSELS (Reuters) - Turkey promised to help stem the flow of migrants to Europe in return for cash, visas and renewed talks on joining the EU in a deal struck on Sunday that the Turkish prime minister called a "new beginning" for the uneasy neighbours. Leaders of the European Union met Turkish premier Ahmet Davutoglu in Brussels on Sunday to finalise an agreement hammered out by diplomats over the past month, as Europeans struggle to limit the strain on their 28-nation bloc from taking in hundreds of thousands of Syrian refugees. A key element is 3 billion euros ($3.2 billion) in EU aid for the 2.2 million Syrians now in Turkey.

| French minister condemns social exclusion of young Muslims | |  By Geert De Clercq PARIS (Reuters) - The social exclusion of young Muslims in France partly explains their radicalisation, and the government must give people from poor suburbs more hope of success to reduce the risk of more violent attacks, a cabinet minister said on Sunday. Following the Nov. 13 attacks in Paris which killed 130 people and stunned France, several senior socialist ministers as well as conservative and far-right opposition leaders have said poverty or discrimination could not excuse violence. Fellow government minister Segolene Royal, in a rebuke to Macron over previous remarks on the issue, said she strongly disagreed with comments that appeared to exonerate the killers.

| Declaring a new start, EU and Turkey set to sign migration deal | |  By Francesco Guarascio BRUSSELS (Reuters) - Leaders of the European Union and Turkey were set to sign an agreement on Sunday offering Ankara cash and closer ties in return for help in stemming the flow of migrants to Europe, draft conclusions of their summit showed. Aware of a sense of desperation in Europe for a solution to a crisis that has called into question the future of its passport-free travel zone, Ankara has been driving a hard bargain. "Both sides will ... with immediate effect, step up their active cooperation on migrants..., preventing travel to Turkey and the EU, ensuring ... readmission provisions and swiftly returning migrants who are not in need of international protection to their countries of origin," the draft said.

| Attackers wound senior Burundi army officer - witnesses | | | A senior army officer was wounded in an attack by unidentified gunmen in Burundi at the weekend on his way to the capital, witnesses said on Sunday, the latest in a series of shootings targeting top officials. Violence has racked the African nation for months since President Pierre Nkurunziza said he would run for a third term in office and then went on to win a disputed election in July. Western powers and African neighbours worry Burundi, which emerged from a civil war in 2005, could slide back into ethnic conflict. |
