s Executive Board

By Paul Gordon

European Central Bank President Mario Draghi is convening his Governing Council on Sunday for an extraordinary meeting to discuss Greece.

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdo?an has slammed a recent New York Times editorial as ?shameless,? calling on the U.S. daily to ?know its place.?

One of the issues people have wondered the most about ahead of the June elections is how much the ratio of women deputies in parliament will increase. It is being calculated that the current 14.4 percent ratio of women deputies in parliament will, most probably, increase to around 18 percent. 

Members of the International Press Institute (IPI)?s Executive Board called on Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdo?an and his supporters in the ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP) to ?immediately halt a disingenuous campaign of vilification against the Do?an Media Group and its daily newspaper Hürriyet? that has raged this week, the IPI said in a statement on May 22.

The European Central Bank kept interest rates unchanged at record lows and said President Mario Draghi will announce further policy measures at a media briefing later.
