The American Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney has said the United States has a solemn duty to prevent Iran from developing nuclear weapons. Addressing an audience in Jerusalem, he said the US recognized Irael's right to defend itself and that the two countries should employ any and all measures to prevent Iran from achieving its aims.
"When Iran's leaders deny the Holocaust, or speak of wiping this nation off the map, only the naive – or worse – will dismiss it as an excess of rhetoric . Make no mistake: the ayatollahs in Tehran are testing our moral defenses. They want to know who will object, and who will look the other way. My message to the people of Israel and the leaders of Iran is one and the same: we will not look away.”
Government forces in Syria have again been using heavy weapons to pound opposition strongholds in Aleppo. Troops are trying to push into rebel-held neighborhoods and there has been fierce fighting. Ian Pannell reports from Aleppo.
We are getting reports again, but cannot verify them. A very heavy fighting near the old fort, this is pretty much in the central part of Aleppo. State media are certainly saying that there has been a quoted major breakthrough in the area, not sure what they think that is and lots of rumors that they are nothing stronger in there that perhaps the military do not launch an offense in the countryside as well because of cost. Many of the fighters came from the countryside and may be attacking and take them out.
There's increasing speculation that the European Central Bank may intervene to ease the financial plight of Spain. It follows several statements from the German Chancellor Angela Merkel. From Berlin, Steve Evans.
When Mario Draghi said last week that the ECB would do whatever it takes to preserve the euro, stock market jumped because they read the words as a signal that the bank would start buying Spanish government bonds. In effect, it would take on some Spanish debts. Today, Chancellor Merkel echoed the words in a joint statement with the Italian prime minister. On Friday, she said the same in a joint statement with President Hollande of France. It's led to speculation that she signaled her approval of the buying of Spanish bonds by the ECB. The difficulty is that if turns out that the signals have been misread, stock markets might react badly.

Polls have closed in Romania where voters have been deciding whether to impeach their center-right President Traian Basescu. Three hours before voting ended, turnout was well short of the 50% needed to make the vote valid. The center-left government accuses Mr Basescu of undermining democracy as Nick Thorpe reports.
The Romanian public were actually asked two questions in this referendum. One was on the ballot paper: "Do you want to remove Traian Basescu from office?"; the other question was not written, but was on everyone's minds: do you care enough about it to actually go out and vote? Temperatures of 39°C on Romania's Black Sea coast are not much less in the capital, plus the growing distrust of the population in the whole political elite appeared to be keeping numbers down. But it's beginning to look as though President Traian Basescu has survived yet another attempt to unseat him.
Six people have been arrested in Kenya in connection with the murder of the most senior Venezuelan diplomat in the country. On Friday, Venezuela's acting ambassador to Kenya, Olga Fonseca, was found strangled to death in her official residence in Nairobi. Kenyan officials said staff of the residence had complained about being fired by Ms Fonseca after they refused to retract allegations about her predecessor who left Nairobi two months ago.
An Italian embassy security official has been kidnapped in Yemen. The man was seized in a street and forced into a car close to the Italian embassy in the Capital Sanaa. He was taken to an unknown destination. There are no reports of any demands by his abductors.
The Chilean miners who were trapped underground for 69 days in 2010 are launching a range of products under the name "The 33 of the miracle". They will be selling T-shirts, mugs and commemorative medals. One of the miners, Jose Ojeda, said that the items would be on sale at airports.

美国共和党总统候选人米特·罗姆尼说，美国负有阻止伊朗研制核武器的严肃责任。罗姆尼在耶路撒冷对听众发表讲话，说美国认可以色列捍卫自我的权利，两国应该采取一切措施来阻止伊朗实现这个目的。

“当伊朗的领导人否认大屠杀，或讲到要将这个国家从地图上消灭掉，只有幼稚的人或无知的人才将之视为花言巧语。别再犯错了，德黑兰的阿亚图拉在考验我们的道德防线。他们想知道谁会反对，谁会支持。我要向以色列人们和伊朗领导人表达的是一样的：我们不会转移视线的。”

叙利亚政府军使用重型武器炮轰阿勒颇的反对派阵地。军队试图冲进叛军占领的地区，战斗非常激烈。伊恩·潘内尔在阿勒颇报道。

我们得到新的报道，但无法证实其真实性。一处旧堡垒附近的战斗非常激烈，大约就在阿勒颇中心。国家媒体当 然会说，已在该地区取得了所谓的重大突破，不确定他们是怎么想的。大量传闻称，政府军没有那么强大，或许由于成本问题，军队还不曾发起攻势。许多武装人员 都来自乡下，或许在发动袭击将他们赶走。

越来越多的猜测称，欧洲央行可能干预进来，缓解西班牙的财政困境。此前，德国总理安吉拉·默克尔已发表了数份声明。史蒂夫·埃文斯在柏林报道。

当马里奥·德拉吉上周称欧洲央行将尽一切努力来维护欧元时，股市就下跌了，因为股民读懂了这样的信号，即 央行会购买西班牙政府债券。事实上，欧洲央行会购买一些西班牙债券。今天，总理默克尔在与意大利总理的声明中回应了这点。周五她在与法国总统奥朗德的声明 中也表达了同样的观点。这样使得人们猜测她是在表示赞成欧洲央行购买西班牙债券。难点在于，如果事实证明这些信号是误导的，那么股市的反应更糟糕。

在伦敦奥运会游泳池中，法国赢得男子4*100米自由泳接力决赛。他们打败著名的美国队，其中包括14次夺得奥运金牌的迈克尔·菲尔普斯和新星瑞安·洛赫特。另一件令人难过的事是，夺冠热门队西班牙在输给洪都拉斯后被淘汰出男子足球。

罗马尼亚选民投票决定是否弹劾中右派总统特拉扬·伯塞斯库。投票结束前的三个小时，投票率低于50%，达不到有效的比例。中左派政府谴责伯塞斯库危害了民主。尼克·索普报道。

罗马尼亚民众事实上在这次公投中问了两个问题，一个在选票上写着：“你想让特拉扬·伯塞斯库下台吗?”另 一个问题没有写在书面，但却在每个人的心中：你非常关心这件事并出来投票吗?罗马尼亚黑海海岸的温度达到39°，首都也差不多，越来越多的民众对整个政党 精英的不信任也使得参加投票的人数量不多。但这样看来，总统特拉扬·伯塞斯库又在另一场试图弹劾他的行动中幸存了下来。
