Japan Training Squadron ships arrive in Seychelles as part of worldwide tour

The Japan Training Squadron, JS Kashima and JS Shimakaze of the Japan Maritime Self-Defence Force (JMSDF) arrived in Seychelles' Port Victoria on Monday for a friendly port call. Onboard the two ships are approximately 570 officers and crew members, including 200 newly commissioned officers who recently graduated from the Maritime Officer Candidate School. The visit is part of an almost six-month training cruise, where they expect to visit 13 ports around the world. The purpose of the Overseas Training Cruise is to develop the seamanship of the newly commissioned officers through various trainings at sea, as they foster their international perspectives, while at the same time promoting friendly relationships with port of call countries. At the arrival of the ships were representatives of the Seychelles Defence Forces, the Embassy of Japan, the Seychelles Japan Alumni Association as well as the School for the Deaf in Seychelles.   The Seychelles Japan Alumni Association is a group of people from the island nation who have studied in Japan.  The Chief of Staff of the Seychelles Defence Forces, Jean Attala, greeted the officers from the squadron. (Embassy of Japan in Seychelles) Photo License: All Rights Reserved   Speaking to SNA, the Chief of Staff of the Seychelles Defence Forces (SDF), Jean Attala said, «These courtesy visits are an opportune moment to exchange best practices on both sides. This is especially helpful during the times when several countries are participating in certain operations and everyone is aware of how each side usually operates.» He added that during their visit to Seychelles, the cadets from the Japanese Training Squadron will also be participating in this kind of exchange. «There will be visits organised for the cadets on board in which they will have the opportunity to observe different facilities such as the Coast Guard at Perseverance and the Airforce base at Pointe Larue. There will, of course, be interactions between the senior officers on board and high officials from Seychelles,» said Attala. As part of the activities during their visit, there will be an open day on Tuesday, June 18, the day on which Seychelles celebrates its Constitution Day, for an hour and a half starting from 10 am. Members of the public will be able to visit the ships. As a special treat, on Monday morning, the group welcoming the ship into port got a chance to go aboard.  Part of the group, Dolores Savy, the secretary of the Seychelles Japan Alumni Association said, «This visit is nice, the boat was very interesting.»

African Union condemns rebel 'massacres' in DR Congo

The African Union on Monday condemned «massacres» in the east of the Democratic Republic of Congo that killed 150 people in June. African Union Commission chief Moussa Faki Mahamat said he had learned with «dismay of the increasing massacres of innocent civilians» by the Allied Democratic Forces (ADF), in Beni and Lubero in North Kivu province. «The Chairman of the Commission strongly condemns these attacks, which have claimed the lives of 150 people since the beginning of June,» the statement said. Mahamat encouraged «Congolese authorities, in collaboration with the countries of the region, to intensify their efforts to curb the spread of the terrorist threat in the Great Lakes region». He also reiterated the African Union's «ongoing commitment to the countries of the Great Lakes region in their fight against terrorism». The attacks are attributed to the ADF, which originated in neighbouring Uganda. The group has operated in eastern DR Congo for decades and in 2019 it pledged allegiance to the Islamic State group, which portrays the ADF as its central African branch. Since the end of 2021, the Congolese and Ugandan armies have conducted joint operations against the ADF in North Kivu and neighbouring Ituri province, but have so far failed to stop the deadly attacks on civilians. The east of the country has been plagued by violence from armed groups for decades. © Agence France-Presse

Lull in Gaza fighting despite blasts in south

Israel struck Gaza on Monday and witnesses reported blasts in the besieged territory's south, but fighting has largely subsided after a day of relative calm and as Muslims marked Eid al-Adha. Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu dissolved his war cabinet, a government spokesman said, reflecting fractures at the top of the country's politics. David Mencer, spokesman for the prime minister's office, said the body had been disbanded following the resignation earlier this month of centrist leader Benny Gantz, who had required a war cabinet's formation in order to join a unity government. «So with Mr Gantz leaving government, there is no need for the cabinet,» whose duties Mencer said will be taken over by the pre-existing security cabinet. The security cabinet had finalised decisions proposed by the war cabinet. Israeli media said the move, which was not expected to trigger any major policy shift, was meant to counter pressure from far-right politicians seeking a greater say in decision-making. A daytime «pause» for aid deliveries around a southern Gaza route, announced at the weekend by Israel's military, appeared to be holding on Monday. But witnesses told AFP they could hear blasts in the centre and west of the southernmost city of Rafah on Monday morning. Elsewhere in the Palestinian territory an AFP correspondent said strikes and shelling have decreased. In Gaza City, medics at Al-Ahli hospital said at least five people were killed in two separate air strikes, and witnesses reported tank shelling in the southern neighbourhood of Zeitun. At least one strike hit Bureij refugee camp in the central Gaza Strip, residents said. Palestinian officials in Rafah reported tank shelling early on Monday, before the start of the daily «local, tactical pause of military activity» announced by the army. It said the pause «for humanitarian purposes will take place from 8:00 am (0500 GMT) until 7:00 pm (1600 GMT) every day until further notice along the road that leads from the Kerem Shalom crossing to the Salah al-Din road and then northwards». Earlier, an Israeli official, speaking on condition of anonymity, told AFP «there was no change» in the military's policy and stressed fighting «continues as planned». - 'Catastrophic hunger' - An army spokesperson told AFP the pause was in effect on Monday, and the military in a statement said troops were still operating in Rafah and central Gaza, reporting «close-quarters combat» that killed several militants. A map released by the army showed the declared humanitarian route extending up to Rafah's European Hospital, about 10 kilometres (six miles) from Kerem Shalom. Mahmud Basal, spokesman for the civil defence agency in the Hamas-ruled territory, said that apart from the deadly Gaza City strikes overnight, «the other areas of the Gaza Strip are somewhat calm». He reported military movements and gunfire in parts of Rafah as well as Bureij camp in central Gaza. On Sunday, the first day of Eid al-Adha, or the Muslim feast of the sacrifice, the spokesman said «calm has prevailed across all of Gaza». The Gaza health ministry said on Monday it had recorded 10 deaths over the past 24 hours, in one of the lowest daily tolls since the war began. The United Nations welcomed the Israeli announcement of the pause, although «this has yet to translate into more aid reaching people in need», said Jens Laerke, spokesman for the UN humanitarian agency OCHA. He called for «further concrete measures by Israel to address longstanding issues» on humanitarian needs. Gazans «urgently need food, water, sanitation, shelter, and health care, with many living near piles of solid waste, heightening health risks,» Laerke said. Dire shortages of food and other essentials in the Gaza Strip have been exacerbated by overland access restrictions and the closure of the key Rafah crossing with Egypt since Israeli forces seized its Palestinian side in early May. After discussion with US President Joe Biden that month, Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi agreed to temporarily divert aid from Rafah by sending it into Gaza via Israel's nearby Kerem Shalom crossing. Israel's military said the pause was in effect as part of efforts to «increase the volumes of humanitarian aid» following discussions with the United Nations and other organisations. The head of the World Health Organization said last week that much of Gaza's population faces «catastrophic hunger and famine-like conditions.» - 'End the war' - The pause was announced a day after eight Israeli soldiers were killed in a blast near Rafah and three more troops died elsewhere, in one of the heaviest losses for the army in more than eight months of war against Hamas Palestinian militants. The war was triggered by Hamas's unprecedented October 7 attack on southern Israel that resulted in the deaths of 1,194 people, mostly civilians, according to an AFP tally based on Israeli official figures. The militants also seized 251 hostages. Of these, 116 remain in Gaza, although the army says 41 are dead. Israel's retaliatory offensive aimed at eliminating Hamas has killed at least 37,347 people in Gaza, also mostly civilians, according to the territory's health ministry. In an Eid message late Sunday, US President Joe Biden called for the implementation of a ceasefire plan he outlined last month, saying it was «the best way to end the violence in Gaza» and to help civilians suffering «the horrors of the war between Hamas and Israel». Egyptian, Qatari and US mediators have been pushing for a new Gaza truce, so far without success. Biden's truce plan would bring an initial six-week pause to fighting. «I strongly believe that the three-phase ceasefire proposal Israel has made to Hamas and that the UN Security Council has endorsed is the best way to end the violence in Gaza and ultimately end the war,» the US president said. Hamas has insisted on the complete withdrawal of Israeli forces from Gaza and a permanent ceasefire -- demands Israel has repeatedly rejected. © Agence France-Presse

Briefing - The European Parliament's role in concluding international agreements - 17-06-2024

The roles of the EU institutions in negotiating and concluding international agreements, and the procedural steps, are set out in the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union. The European Parliament's role corresponds to its law-making competences under the Treaties. If an international agreement falls exclusively within common and foreign security policy (CFSP), Parliament has no active role, but must still be informed at all stages by the Council, the European Commission or the High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy. If an international agreement does not fall exclusively within the CFSP, Parliament's specific powers depend on whether the agreement's substantive legal basis corresponds to an area of competence covered by the ordinary legislative procedure or special legislative procedure (SLP) with consent; if so, Parliament has the power to give or refuse consent to the conclusion of the agreement. If the agreement falls within the scope of an SLP where Parliament does not need to give consent, its role is limited to giving an opinion. Parliament is also entitled to call on the Court of Justice to verify ex ante whether an envisaged agreement is compatible with the EU Treaties. The 2010 framework agreement on relations between the European Parliament and the European Commission was a key step in developing Parliament's role in the negotiation and conclusion of international agreements. The agreement provides for Parliament to be informed from an early stage of negotiations on an international agreement, and for Members of Parliament to participate as observers in negotiations. The Commission undertook to keep Parliament informed on the entire negotiation process, with particular emphasis on agreements that fall within Parliament's power of consent. Parliament's Rules of Procedure lay down detailed procedural arrangements for the exercise of Parliament's competences in concluding international agreements, in particular for verification of the legal basis of an envisaged agreement that impacts Parliament's powers.
