Norway's police has launched an investigation into an alleged breach of COVID-19 restrictions by Prime Minister Erna Solberg, public media reported Friday.

According to Norwegian Broadcasting, Solberg held a birthday celebration with 13 people in a restaurant at the Geilo Ski Center and then continued the celebrations with 14 people in an indoor space.
People in Norway are allowed to gather indoors with a maximum of 10 people.
The prime minister's action has drawn harsh criticism from the public for flouting those rules.
Speaking to NRK, Solberg said: -I warned people every day to abide by the restrictions. I should have followed those myself.-The Nordic country has reported 84,553 virus cases and 648 deaths since the beginning of the pandemic.

The World Health Organization (WHO) exhorted the world to keep administering AstraZeneca’s COVID-19 shots on Friday, adding its endorsement to that of European and British regulators after concerns over blood clotting.

-We urge countries to continue using this important COVID-19 vaccine- WHO Director General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus told a news conference in Geneva.
He was speaking after the global health body’s vaccine safety panel said available data about the AstraZeneca shot did not point to any overall increase in clotting conditions.
European and British regulators also said this week that the benefits of AstraZeneca’s shot outweighed the risks, prompting various nations to lift their suspensions.
-The AstraZeneca vaccine is especially important because it accounts for more than 90% of the vaccines being distributed through COVAX- Tedros added, referring to a WHO-led global vaccine-sharing scheme.
-There is no question. COVID-19 is a deadly disease, and the Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine can prevent it. It’s also important to remember that COVID-19 itself can cause blood clots and low platelets.-The WHO’s global advisory committee on vaccine safety said in a statement that the AstraZeneca vaccine had a “positive benefit-risk profile” and “tremendous potential” to prevent infections and reduce deaths.
The WHO panel of 12 independent experts, who met virtually on Tuesday and on Thursday, reviewed safety data from Europe, the United Kingdom, India, and WHO’s global database.
-While very rare and unique thromboembolic events in combination with thrombocytopenia, such as cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST), have also been reported following vaccination with the AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine in Europe, it is not certain that they have been caused by vaccination- it said.

Turkish officials on Friday accused Greek coast guards of handcuffing seven migrants and throwing them into the Aegean Sea without life jackets, resulting in at least three deaths.

In the latest dispute about so-called "pushbacks" of people seeking refuge in Europe, Turkish Interior Minister Suleyman Soylu tweeted images that he said showed Turkey's rescue of two of the migrants.
-Greek coast guards battered seven migrants, took their belongings, tied their hands in plastic cuffs and threw them in the sea without life jackets- Soylu tweeted.
The Turkish coast guard later issued a statement saying they had rescued three people and found the bodies of two others, while a third died in hospital.
-The search for the last missing person continues- the Turkish coast guards said.
The images tweeted by Soylu showed one of the apparent survivors saying in rudimentary Turkish that his group was arrested on the Greek island of Chios on Thursday.
-They took our phones and our money, then beat us- the man says in the clip.
Greece denies violating the law while protecting its coasts.
A probe into allegations of illegal migrant pushbacks on the Greece-Turkey maritime border concluded this month that the EU's border agency Frontex needed to make "urgent improvements" in its transparency.
The final report said poor reporting practises meant that investigators could not clearly determine if pushbacks had occurred in five of the cases under review.
Pushbacks prevent asylum-seekers from making claims for protected status, and if practised indiscriminately can constitute a violation of core EU human rights laws and the 1951 Geneva Convention.
Greek Migration Minister Notis Mitarachi told AFP this week that his country protects its borders "in accordance to European regulations and international law."
-We haven't returned boats. We have prevented boats from entering European and Greek territory, but this is something allowed by the regulations- Mitarachi said.

Finnish authorities said Friday they had traced a cyber attack against the country's parliament last year to a hacker group associated with the Chinese government.

The Finnish parliament announced in December that it had been the target of a cyber espionage operation.
The attack -- which speaker of the house Anu Vehvilainen dubbed "a serious threat against our democracy and Finnish society" -- had been carried out at an unspecified date "during the autumn."
Finland's security service SUPO traced the attack to an actor which US security firm FireEye has designated APT31, believed to be acting at the behest of China's government.
-We are quite sure of the conclusion, but unfortunately we can't comment on the methodology- a spokeswoman for SUPO told AFP in an email.
SUPO also couldn't comment on what sort of information may have been compromised, as the matter was still the subject of an investigation.
-We can state that the operation targeted the very heart of Finnish decision-making and is considered a very serious matter- the spokeswoman said.
According to FireEye, APT31 focuses on "obtaining information that can provide the Chinese government and state-owned enterprises with political, economic, and military advantages."

There is no causal link between the death of a 43-year-old woman and the AstraZeneca virus vaccine she was given, Spanish health authorities said on Friday.

The AstraZeneca jab has been in the spotlight over a possible link to blood clots, but the European Medical agency has given it the all-clear and several EU countries resumed vaccinations with it on Friday.-There exists no cause/effect relationship between the administering of the AstraZeneca vaccine and the death of this woman- said Jess Aguirre, health official for the southern region of Andalusia.
The person who died was a 43-year-old maths teacher in the southern city of Marbella with no pre-existing health conditions.
She suffered a cerebral haemorrhage and had complained of headaches after having the jab, but doctors had attributed the headaches to the normal side effects associated with the vaccine, Diario Sur newspaper reported.
Spain halted use of the AstraZeneca vaccine in mid-March, along with several other countries but, following the EMA all-clear, announced on Thursday that it will resume administering the jabs next week.
The Andalusian health authority confirmed to AFP that no "causal link" had been found between the vaccine and the woman's death, according to the preliminary autopsy report.
Her case is one of three investigations underway concerning people who suffered from thrombosis after receiving the AstraZeneca vaccine.
Health Minister Carolina Darias told a news conference on Wednesday that she "understood the concerns", but stressed that Spain has so far recorded just those three cases of thrombosis out of the 975,661 people who have received the AstraZeneca vaccine.
Spain has been hit hard by the coronavirus pandemic, with more than 3.2 million cases registered and over 72,900 deaths.

India's wealthiest state Maharashtra and its capital Mumbai recorded on Friday the most daily coronavirus cases since the pandemic began, stoking a new nationwide wave.

The Asian nation of 1.3 billion people was this month overtaken by Brazil as the country with the second most infections after cases dipped in December and January.
But recent weeks have seen an uptick, particularly in Maharashtra which on Friday reported a record 25,833 new cases, with financial capital and megacity Mumbai logging 2,877.
In total India recorded almost 40,000 new cases -- almost double the rate of a week earlier -- although still less than half the peak of almost 100,000 seen in September.
Several badly hit states including Maharashtra, Gujarat and Madhya Pradesh have imposed fresh restrictions such as curbs on movement and public gatherings in some cities.
However, major nationwide restrictions imposed during a months-long lockdown last year have mostly been lifted, with immense religious and political gatherings taking place.
-There is going to be no lockdown in the state- Gujarat chief minister Vijay Rupani said on Thursday.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi told regional leaders earlier this week to step up efforts to contain the pandemic and to ramp up testing.
-We have to stop the emerging second peak of the pandemic through quick and decisive steps- Modi told the virtual meeting.
-In recent weeks, some 70 districts have witnessed a more than 150 percent increase in the number of cases and if we do not stop the pandemic right now, it could lead to a nationwide outbreak.-India has so far administered almost 40 million vaccines, with the aim of inoculating 300 million people by the end of July.
In total the country has recorded more than 11.5 million cases and almost 160,000 deaths.

Chairman of the Delegation of the Parliamentary Assembly of Bosnia and Herzegovina (B&amp;H PA) to the NATO Parliamentary Assembly (PA NATO) Asim Sarajlić said that the statement of the Embassy of the Russian Federation was an act of inappropriate and undiplomatic pressure on B&amp;H and its institutions.

-However, that statement comes by approximately 15 years too late, because B&amp;H defined the commitment to join the NATO in 2006 with the Law on Defense- Sarajlić reminded.
After that, the decisions and strategies followed, joining the MAP, Sarajlić notes, which is why it is clear that B&amp;H is moving towards NATO membership.
-It is especially important to emphasize that all previous decisions have been made by consensus. Such an open Russian pressure on B&amp;H is not only a question for us in B&amp;H, but also for our partners in Brussels and Washington, so I expect to hear clear messages from that side- concluded Sarajlić.
The Russian Embassy in B&amp;H stated that in the event of a practical approximation between Bosnia and Herzegovina and NATO, they will have to react to what they said would be a hostile step.
-We call our friends in B&amp;H to think carefully, to weigh all the pros and cons, to take into account the opinion of all residents of the country who are far from having a consensus on this issue- said in a press release the Russian Embassy in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
The announcement of the Embassy of Russia in B&amp;H came a day after the Commission of Bosnia and Herzegovina for Cooperation with NATO was constituted, based on the decision of the Council of Ministers of February 24, 2021.

We have a state, we keep saying we love it, but we don't make that state function normally, they argue over whether we will procure, how we will procure, who will procure, and people are dying, it is painful and we cannot understand that, the Archbishop of Vrhbosna, Cardinal Vinko Puljić, pointed out today in Mostar.

According to him, chaos in the state is not the responsibility of the Catholic Church.
-Chaos in the country is not our responsibility, we live with the people and what they experience. We have personal cases where, for example, we send a letter to the individual ministry and we do not receive a response for two years. I can't say that there is something controversial here, but simply, it is not being done. It turns out that I am attacking them here, but it is not so, we only say that what should have been done was not done, and I don't know what the point is, whether it is the politicization of some interest- said Puljić after the session of the Bishops' Conference B&amp;H held on Friday in the premises of the Episcopal Ordinariate in Mostar.
He also added that the coronavirus pandemic is blocking the work of the Bishops' Conference of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
-In a way, we often cannot monitor situations in the world, such as migration, but we want to do what is ecclesiastical on our part, which is why we gave our pastoral instructions on how to act at that time. I am thankful to God that we did this session with dignity and the way we were supposed to do. I would also like to say that the medical staff should be commended for the effort they put into rescuing people, especially during a pandemic, but also otherwise- said Puljić.
Bishop of Mostar-Duvno and Apostolic Administrator of Trebinje-Mrkan Msgr. Petar Palić pointed out that, in addition to the above, the topic of migrants was also discussed, as well as the way of pastoral and liturgical life in the current living conditions.
The Apostolic Nuncio to B&amp;H, Msgr. Luigi Pezzuto, who spoke during the session about the importance of the ministerial priesthood and the need for priests to regularly and persistently feed the faithful entrusted to the Eucharist and the word of God.
Discussing the growing influx of migrants to Bosnia and Herzegovina, the bishops expressed their support for the efforts of all charitable, humanitarian and other organizations that seek to help take care of these people during their stay in B&amp;H.

The B&amp;H Presidency member Željko Komšić reacted to yesterday's statement from the Embassy of the Russian Federation on the Commission for Cooperation and Relations between B&amp;H and NATO.

-First of all, we need to draw attention to a number of facts to the Embassy of the Russian Federation based on the decisions of the institutions of Bosnia and Herzegovina, decisions that the Embassy of the Russian Federation should respect, especially when we have a long-standing position of Russia on respecting the decisions of Bosnia and Herzegovina.-Therefore, he recalls, Bosnia and Herzegovina submitted an official request for participation in the MAP or NATO Membership Action Plan in 2009, in accordance with the decision of the then convocation of the Presidency of Bosnia and Herzegovina, signed by B&amp;H Presidency member Nebojša Radmanović.
-As for the statement from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Russia, it is certainly the continuity of their activities towards all aspiring countries for NATO membership and, unfortunately, most often, such activities are manifested through causing greater and lesser difficulties. This was the case with Montenegro, and later in North Macedonia, during their path towards NATO membership. This is obviously a geopolitical game of Russia, which aims to stop the expansion of NATO in Europe- Komšić asserted. 
However, he adds that this is not only a message to Bosnia and Herzegovina, but also to our allies within the NATO alliance, such as the United States, Great Britain, Canada, Germany and others.
-A political speech that abounds in nuanced threats is certainly not acceptable to them, nor to us in Bosnia and Herzegovina- concluded the member of the Presidency of B&amp;H Željko Komšić.

The Office of the Disciplinary Prosecutor of the High Judicial and Prosecutorial Council (HJPC) of B&amp;H, headed by Alena Kurspahić-Nadarević, has been investigating for exactly one year whether Ranko Debevec, President of the Court of B&amp;H, committed a disciplinary offense related to allegations of abuse of office and corruption.&nbsp;

We remind you that several disciplinary cases have been filed against the head of the Court of B&amp;H, and the report that he committed the criminal offense of abuse of position or authority under Article 220 of the B&amp;H Criminal law and several corrupt acts was submitted to the Prosecutor's Office of B&amp;H on March 18th last year.
Immediately after the report that he abused his official position by not declaring property in Spain and dual citizenship, the Prosecutor's Office of B&amp;H was officially informed about it by the Office of the Disciplinary Prosecutor. Debevec was later reported for inappropriate contact with the accused ISA director Osman Mehmedagić, who was tried in the Court of B&amp;H, as well as a number of other abuses of office.
However, the question is why, given all the evidence that the Office received in November last year, and which was obtained by the Prosecutor's Office through international legal assistance, no disciplinary action and procedure have been initiated.
In addition to the lawsuit, as we have already stated, Debevec is threatened with temporary removal from the position of President of the Court, which is also stated in Article 77 of the Law on the HJPC of B&amp;H.
The law clearly states that a judge or prosecutor may be temporarily removed from office "if disciplinary proceedings have been instituted for a disciplinary offense."
However, there is growing speculation that individuals in the Office of the Disciplinary Prosecutor, although they informally announced the lawsuit last week, want to save Debevec from disciplinary responsibility at all costs, seeking additional time for investigation.

Namely, the Law on the HJPC states that the procedure for determining disciplinary responsibility must be completed within one year from the day of filing the report.
That deadline officially expired yesterday. Therefore, the Office of the Disciplinary HJPC would have to file a lawsuit, if nothing else, by the end of the week. When we asked what happened to the disciplinary investigation, we were answered as in previous months - "disciplinary proceedings have not been initiated." Although numerous pieces of evidence published in the media have confirmed that Debevec committed numerous disciplinary offenses, the Office is silent about it for now.

<h2>He hid the information when applying for the position of judge</h2>

- The Prosecutor's Office of B&amp;H, by inspecting the personal file, determined that Debevec provided incomplete and inaccurate information when applying for the position of Prosecutor, Judge and President of the Court of B&amp;H and filling in the application form for the position of Judge, Prosecutor and Expert Associate, in which he did not state the fact that he also uses the name Ranko Debevec Kaveson, and that, in addition to Bi&amp; citizenship, he also has another citizenship – Spainish one, which indicates that he committed a disciplinary offense prescribed by Article 56, item 19 of the Law on High Court and the Prosecutorial Council of B&amp;H - Prosecutor's Office of B&amp;H stated.

Charges against the President of the Court, alleging that he abused his official position, was filed on March 18th last year

The Prosecutor's Office of Bosnia and Herzegovina is sending a resolute denial to the writing of the journalist Dženana Karup-Druško, who is trying to impute the case, which according to media allegations is being processed in the District Prosecutor's Office in Doboj, to the Prosecutor's Office of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
- The Prosecutor's Office of Bosnia and Herzegovina has good, active and partnership relations with all domestic and international institutions in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Such malicious constructions originate from persons who are very close or employed in the offices of officials prosecuted in the Prosecutor's Office of B&amp;H, and represent another in the series of pressures on the Chief Prosecutor, prosecutors and employees of the Prosecutor's Office of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Regardless of all pressures, the Prosecutor's Office of B&amp;H will continue its work in accordance with the law and in the interest of the citizens of Bosnia and Herzegovina, and such inappropriate pressures will not stop us from prosecuting illegalities in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The Prosecutor's Office of B&amp;H does not lead, nor has it led, nor does it have the authority to conduct any investigation or proceedings against NATO structures - it was announced from this institution.

<h2>Novalić's adviser attacks the Prosecutor's Office </h2>

For years, it has been a public secret that "journalist" Dženana Karup-Druško works according to the instructions and under the auspices of the director of the B&amp;H Intelligence and Security Agency, Osman Mehmedagić Osmica. A few months ago, she publicly complained to Bakir Izetbegović that, despite all the "good services" she did for him and the SDA, she found herself without income and literally on the road.
It is not known what Izetbegović answered her, but it is symptomatic that, in the end, as the media writes, she ended up as an advisor in the Office of the Federal Prime Minister Fadil Novalić.
We remind you that the Prosecutor's Office of B&amp;H has filed an indictment, which was confirmed by the Court of B&amp;H, against Novalić and others in the "Respirators" case, and that Novalić and others are on trial before the Court of B&amp;H.

Two weeks after being convicted for corruption, former French President Nicolas Sarkozy went on trial on Wednesday in the Bygmalion case relating to forgery and overspending during his failed 2012 presidential campaign.

Sarkozy, who served as president from 2007 to 2012, did not attend the hearing and was represented by his lawyer, Thierry Herzog.
The 66-year-old is accused along with 14 others, including former officials of public relations agency Bygmalion and his political party, accountants, and campaign managers.
They face charges of forgery, use of forgery, breach of trust, and complicity in illegal financing of Sarkozy’s election bid.
Prosecutors say he spent more than €43 million ($51 million) on the failed re-election campaign, well over the authorized limit of €22.5 million ($26.8 million).
The illegal electoral expenses were covered up through false invoices by Bygmalion to Sarkozy’s party, known at the time as the Union for a Popular Movement (UMP).
Sarkozy has denied any wrongdoing, but a former campaign deputy director, Jerome Lavrilleux, admitted in a TV interview in 2014 that the allegations were true.
The trial is expected to last until April 15 and, if convicted, Sarkozy could be sentenced to a year in prison and a fine of €3,750 ($4,470).

Aspirin may reduce the risk of severe coronavirus symptoms, according to a study by George Washington University on Thursday.

The study, published in the monthly peer-reviewed medical journal Anesthesia &amp; Analgesia, found that low doses of the low-cost and commonly used drug may have lung-protective effects and lower the risk of going to intensive care units (ICU), or even death, from the coronavirus.
Patients with the virus who used aspirin had a 40% less chance of needing a mechanical ventilator in the ICU, according to the study conducted with 400 patients from March to July 2020.
Aspirin use decreased the risk of mechanical ventilation by 44% and lowered ICU admissions by 43%, while in-hospital mortality fell 47%, the study showed.
"As we learned about the connection between blood clots and COVID-19, we knew that aspirin -- used to prevent stroke and heart attack -- could be important for COVID-19 patients,” said Dr. Jonathan Chow who teaches anesthesiology and critical care medicine and is the director of the Critical Care Anesthesiology Fellowship at the School of Medicine and Health Sciences.
