Pakistan will fight terrorism as its top priority but will also negotiate with militant groups ''willing to lay down their arms,'' the country's new prime minister said today.
Yousaf Raza Gilani said in his first policy speech that the government also will seek to reinstate judges ousted by President Pervez Musharraf last year -- a move that could prompt a showdown with the U.S.-backed leader.
Zimbabweans began voting today in the most crucial election since independence from Britain in 1980, with veteran President Robert Mugabe facing the biggest challenge of his 28-year-rule.
Voting began at 0706 a.m. (0506 GMT) and was scheduled to end 12 hours later. With the once-prosperous nation's economy in ruins, former guerrilla leader Mugabe must defeat a formidable two-pronged attack from veteran opposition leader Morgan Tsvangirai and ruling party defector Simba Makoni.
The weekend forecast for Heathrow Airport's Terminal 5: choppy, unsettled and likely delays.
The new terminal's opening has become a full-scale public relations disaster for British Airways, with long lines at the airport yesterday and even some scuffles breaking out between angry and exhausted passengers. BA said 27 round-trip short haul flights in and out of the terminal would be cancelled today -- slightly less than the 36 roundtrip short haul flights cancelled Friday.
