It is the end of an era in Germany as the West s longest serving leader was tonight d cups stanley efeated by his liberal opponent Gerhard Schroeder. CBS News Senior European Correspondent Tom Fenton reports that the mood at Helmut Kohl s Christian Democrat headquarters tonight reflects the size of his defeat. Kohl was a giant in more ways than one.As a political rival once remarked, if Kohl had been the Titanic, the iceberg would have sunk. His 300-pound frame towered over German politics through the administrations of three American presidents. He led his country through the most dramatic changes since World War Two. After the fall of the Berlin wal stanley cups l, Kohl pushed through the reunification of the two halves of Germany, and then pushed to move the capital of Germany back to Berlin. However these milestones came at a great expense to the German taxpayer. The cost to Germany was high unemployment and a stagnant economy. The cost to Kohl was ultimately his job.Today s winner, Social Democrat Gerhard Shroeder, will have to form a coalition to go stanley thermos mug vern. Germany will have a new face, but probably not new policies. Although he was once a hot headed Socialist, Shroeder these days is a friend of big business and agrees with almost all of Kohl s policies.Shroeder also ran a much slicker campaign, sticking to platitudes and avoiding specifics. Kohl ran like a politician with his eye on history. And tonight, he is history. ponent--type-recirculation .item:nth-child 5 { display: none;

President Donald Trump welcomed Thailand s junta leader af1 to the White House on Monda adidas samba y mdash; a rare instance of a military ruler being feted in Washington before even a nominal return to civilian rule.Prime Minister Prayuth Chan-o-chawas greeted at the South Portico by Trump and first lady Melania Trump as he arrived for talks and adidas samba schuhe a working lunch. The visit comes three years after Prayuth seized power in a military coup, and days after the elected leader whose government he ousted was sentenced in absentia to five years in prison.Human rights groups are outraged, but it gives a shot in the arm to U.S. relations with its oldest ally in Asia, which has moved more into China s orbit since Washington scaled back ties because of the military takeover.The Trump administration, like the Obama administration before it, maintains that relations with Thailand will only be fully restored when democracy returns. But rolling out the red carpet for Prayuth reflects a shift in U.S. foreign policy priorities. Trump espouses a doctrine of America First, prioritizing U.S. trade and strategic interests. He s more willing to engage with anti-democratic leaders and less troubled by their human rights records.That s not been lost on observers in Thailand, whose diplomatic relations with Washington date back to 1833.

It s a poignant statement coming from a man whose country still sees more than its fair share of rocket fire.Forty-eight hours of unprecedented snowfall left the entire region blanketed in white, and claimed the lives of more than 200 people.

OSLO, Norway -- In early March, a mysterious ship the size of a large passenger ferry left a Romanian wharf, glided through the narrow Bosporus that separates Europe and Asia, and plotted a course toward Scandinavia.About a month later, at the fenced-in headquarters of Norway s military intelligence service, the country s spy chief disclosed its identity. It was a $250 million spy ship, tentatively named Marjata, that will be equipped with sensors and other technology to snoop on Russia s activities in the Arctic beginning in 2016. There is a demand from our political leadership to describe what is going on in this region, Lt. Gen. Kjell Grandhagen said in an interview at the hilltop surveillance base outside Oslo.
