Russia's Duma passes reforms allowing Putin to seek re-election

https://www.dw.com/en/russias-duma-passes-reforms-allowing-putin-to-seek-re-election/a-52718022

Russia's lower house of parliament approved a range of amendments to the constitution on Wednesday, including a law that allows President Vladimir Putin to seek reelection after his current term ends in 2024.

House Speaker Vyacheslav Volodin told reporters that 383 lawmakers voted in favor, 43 abstained, and none voted against. Putin's party dominates the lower house, called the Duma.

DW's Emily Sherwin analyzed how things unfolded on Tuesday. "This would mean a kind of reset button for President Putin," she told DW TV.

The bill now needs to be rubber-stamped by the upper house on Saturday and is all but certain to be approved. The bill includes 390 changes to the constitution.

Turkey's Erdogan vows to keep border open for migrants until EU meets demands
https://www.dw.com/en/turkeys-erdogan-vows-to-keep-border-open-for-migrants-until-eu-meets-demands/a-52718983

Greece has seen an influx of migrants and refugees since Ankara opened its borders nearly two weeks earlier. The Turkish president has compared Greece's treatment of migrants to the Nazi regime.

President Recep Tayyip Erdogan vowed Wednesday to keep Turkey's border open for migrants and refugees trying to get to Europe until the EU delivered on each of Ankara's demands over a 2016 migration deal with the bloc.

"Until all Turkey's expectations, including free movement, ... updating of the customs union and financial assistance are tangibly met, we will continue the practice on our borders," he said in a televised speech to lawmakers from his AK Party in parliament.

Coronavirus: English local elections postponed for a year

https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-politics-51876269

Local and mayoral elections in England will be postponed for a year to May 2021 due to the coronavirus outbreak.

Downing Street said it would be impractical to hold the elections as planned, as they would come during the peak of the spread of the virus.

Polls were due in 118 English councils, the London Assembly and for seven English regional mayors.

Voting was also due to take place for the London mayor and police and crime commissioners in England and Wales.

It comes after the Electoral Commission said on Thursday the elections should be delayed until the autumn to "mitigate" the impact of the virus.

Meanwhile, visitor access to Parliament will be restricted from Monday, and MPs and peers are being "strongly" discouraged from making overseas trips.

Commons Speaker Lindsay Hoyle said the "proportionate and reasonable" measures would help preserve the operation of Parliament during the outbreak.

Romanian lawmakers endorse PM Orban in vote of confidence

https://www.reuters.com/article/us-romania-politics-government/romanian-lawmakers-endorse-pm-orban-in-vote-of-confidence-idUSKBN2110SC

BUCHAREST (Reuters) - Romania’s centrist Prime Minister Ludovic Orban won a parliamentary vote of confidence by a large margin as expected, on Saturday, with all parties seeking to end a political stalemate and focus on reining in the spread of coronavirus.

President Klaus Iohannis asked the interim premier to form a government on Friday.

Cabinet ministers quarantined themselves for two weeks, after coming into contact with a coronavirus-infected lawmaker.

“It’s been 286 votes for the government out of 309 cast ballots and 23 MPs voted against it,” a senior ruling party deputy told Reuters.

Putin asks court if he can amend constitution to run again for president
https://www.reuters.com/article/us-russia-putin/putin-asks-court-if-he-can-amend-constitution-to-run-again-for-president-idUSKBN2110U2

MOSCOW (Reuters) - Russian President Vladimir Putin has formally asked the country’s constitutional court if it is legal for him to change the constitution, the Kremlin said on Saturday, a move that could allow him to remain in power until 2036.

Putin in January unveiled a major shake-up of Russian politics and a constitutional overhaul, which the Kremlin billed as a redistribution of power from the presidency to parliament.

But Putin, 67, who has dominated Russia’s political landscape for two decades as either president or prime minister, made a dramatic appearance in parliament on Tuesday to back a new amendment that would allow him to ignore a current constitutional ban on him running again in 2024.

His intervention raised the prospect of him serving another two six-year consecutive terms after 2024, though the Kremlin points out that Putin has not yet said whether he will run again in 2024.

The Kremlin said in a statement on Saturday that Putin had signed off on the constitutional changes after they were approved by both house of the country’s parliament and by regional parliaments.

G7 leaders to hold emergency coronavirus video summit

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/mar/16/g7-leaders-to-hold-emergency-coronavirus-video-summit

World leaders are to hold a G7 video summit on Monday devoted to strengthening the financial markets during the coronavirus pandemic and improving coordination on finding a vaccine.

There has so far not been a coordinated international response, in contrast to the 2008 financial crash, with many countries opting for unilateral monetary and health interventions sometimes in competition with one another.

The idea of a summit at leader level, bringing together the main western economies and Japan, was proposed last week by Emmanuel Macron, the French president. Since then the crisis has spiralled and major economic interventions by the US Federal Reserve and Japanese Central Bank in the last 24 hours have failed to reassure markets, leaving world leaders to meet amid another round of crashing stock markets and figures showing the spread of virus in Europe is now worse than in China.

Belgium hands powers to caretaker PM to fight Covid-19 after 15-month stalemate
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/mar/16/belgium-hands-powers-to-caretaker-pm-sophie-wilmes-to-fight-covid-19

After 15 months of stalemate over forming a government, Belgium’s warring political parties have agreed to hand special powers to fight coronavirus to a minority administration led by the current caretaker prime minister, Sophie Wilmès.

Wilmès saw King Philippe on Monday, who officially nominated her to form a government – the first time a woman has been given the task in Belgium’s 190-year history. The federal parliament is expected to approve the deal in a confidence vote on Thursday.

Announcing the breakthrough, Wilmès tweeted that her governmental team appreciated the great responsibility conferred on it. “The sense of duty drives us. The wish to work in the interest of all Belgians equally. This great union [Belgium] is equal to the challenges of the moment.”

Wilmès, Belgium’s first female prime minister, has been leading a caretaker administration since last October, after the previous government collapsed in December 2018.

After hours of talks over the weekend, Belgium’s political parties agreed to put aside differences that have stymied the creation of a fully fledged government since federal elections last May.

Israel election: Netanyahu rival Gantz ‘agrees emergency unity government’
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-52057177

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's main rival has reportedly agreed to join a unity government, ending a year of political deadlock.

Benny Gantz's surprise election as speaker of parliament on Thursday paved the way for the deal.

He will stay in the role until he is named foreign minister, Israeli media report, and will then take over the premiership in September 2021.

Mr Gantz had refused to serve under Mr Netanyahu because he is facing trial.

Mr Netanyahu’s Likud party won the most seats in this month’s general election - the third in less than a year - but more lawmakers recommended that Mr Gantz be given the mandate to form a government.

The rivals were subsequently urged to put politics aside to fight the new coronavirus pandemic, which has infected 2,600 people in Israel and claimed eight lives.

The Israeli leader was formally charged with bribery, fraud and breach of trust in January.
