The Egyptian President Mohammed Morsi has appeared on national television to justify his recent decision to use force against anti-government demonstrators. Mr Morsi heavily criticised for his recent expansion of powers to rule by a decree, said a dialogue was needed to solve the crisis and he invited all major political factions to a meeting on Saturday. Mr Morsi said he hadn't intended to stop judiciary from doing its work.
My role is to protect the country and to see that its stability and security is guaranteed. And the security and stabilities of all the citizens that was pushed me to issue that decree. My responsibility as a defend is to look after sovereign matters that protect this state institution. So that it won't be harmed or devoid of its meanings.
The party of Italy's Former Minister Silvio Berlusconi says he's given a stronger indication yet that he will attempt to return to power. The People of Freedom party which was founded by Mr Berlusconi said it had called off a planned primary to choose a candidate for next year's presidential election. Alan Johnston reports from Rome.
For months, Mr Berlusconi has kept Italy's guessing. At times he seems to be on the verge of announcing a return to frontline politics but then backed off. Now though the most senior figure in the party he founded - the People of Freedom party - has said the former prime minister will indeed be returning to take direct control of it, that he will lead it into the elections. Mr Berlusconi, however still hasn't made any formal announcement himself confirming this.
The American Defence Secretary Leon Panetta says his administration has intelligence which raises serious concerns that the Syrian government is considering the use of the chemical weapons.

The head of Afghanistan intelligence services Asadullah Khalid has been injured in a suicide bombing in the capital Kabul. The Taliban say they targeted Mr Khalid, a close ally of President Karzai. Orla Guerin reports from Kabul.
The bomber struck as Afghanistan's intelligence chief, Asadullah Khalid was meeting officials in a Kabul guesthouse. It's unclear how the Taliban manage to get so close to one of the biggest targets in the country, and one of their biggest enemies. Mr Khalid took over the intelligence agency just a few months ago. Sources say he has been changing location regularly to reduce the risk of attack. The controversial spy chief has survived several assassination attempts in recent years.

She denies this and her supporters say the impeachment charges are politically motivated.
Russia says it will be forced to retaliate against a new American law imposing sanctions on Russian officials accused of human rights violations.

European football's governing body, UEFA has decided to spread the marches for its championship finals in 2020 throughout the continent rather than holding them in just one or two countries. Alex Capsticks reports.
The idea of spreading Euro 2020 to various cities around continents was first mooted by UEFA's Preisent, Michel Platini. It was partly to avoid the financial burden on signal or joint hosts in a time of economic difficulty. The only objections came from Turkey which was one of the bidding candidates. It's unclear how many cities will be chosen, but Michel Platini has privately spoken of around a dozen with semi-finals and final possibly held in the same country.

我的職責是保護國家，確保國家安定和安全。我正是出于確保所有公民安全和安定的目的才頒布這條法令的。我作為保護者的職責就是維護確保國家制度的主權(quán)問題。因此這么做是無害的，也不是無意義的。

幾個月來，意大利人對貝盧斯科尼的猜想不斷。他多次似乎要宣布重返政治前沿，但都放棄了。如今，他所創(chuàng)立的自由人民黨最資深人物稱前總理確實要卷土重來，并領(lǐng)導該黨參加選舉。但貝盧斯科尼本人尚未對此做任何正式聲明。

歐洲足球官方機構(gòu)歐洲足聯(lián)決定將2020年錦標賽擴大到整個歐洲，而不是僅由一兩個國家舉辦。Alex Capsticks報道。
將歐洲2020錦標賽推廣到歐洲各國這一想法最初是歐洲足聯(lián)主席米歇爾·普拉蒂尼提出的，這部分是為了在經(jīng)濟困難時由一個或多國國家獨自承擔費用。只有申請國之一的土耳其表示反對，尚不清楚如何挑選城市，但米歇爾·普拉蒂尼已私下提到一些半決賽或決賽在同一個國家舉行。
