Albanian Premier Suggests AI Could Run Government Ministry In Future

BERAT (Albania), July 19 (Bernama-Anadolu) -- Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama suggested Friday that artificial intelligence (AI) could soon play a key role in the country's governance, hinting at the possibility of an AI-run government ministry, reported Anadolu Ajansi (AA). Speaking at a gathering in the southern city of Berat with representatives from technology, innovation and entrepreneurship sectors, Rama said AI has the potential to significantly boost transparency and efficiency within public administration. 'Very soon, artificial intelligence could become the most efficient member of the government,' Rama said. 'One day, we might even have a ministry entirely run by AI. That way, there would be no nepotism or conflicts of interest.'

Rome Turns Off Trevi Fountain Lights In Solidarity With Gaza

ROME/ISTANBUL, July 19 (Bernama-Anadolu) -- Rome dimmed the lights of the iconic Trevi Fountain for one hour Friday night in a symbolic call for a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip, following a city council resolution last month that was titled, 'Rome will not remain silent,' reported Anadolu Ajansi (AA). 'Let's stop the war in Gaza' was also projected onto the front facade of the historic Palazzo Poli, which is behind the fountain, in a symbolic demand for a ceasefire. A group of pro-Palestinian demonstrators gathered in front of the fountain and waved Palestinian flags in protest of what they described as genocide by Israel in Gaza.

Iran says it strongly supports Syria's sovereignty amid Israeli escalation

TEHRAN (Iran) /ISTANBUL — Iran on Friday reiterated its firm support for Syria's national sovereignty and territorial integrity, while sharply criticising European countries for what it called a biased stance toward Israeli attacks in Syria, reported Anadolu Ajansi (AA). Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei (picture) made the remarks in a post on X, accusing the European Union of misrepresenting Israel's actions by referring to them merely as 'escalating strikes on Syrian territory.' 'By (mis) characterising Israel's blatant act of aggression… the EU disclaims even the pretence of moral integrity,' he wrote, calling the statement 'gaslighting at its finest' and accusing the bloc of dressing 'complicity' up as 'diplomacy.' Baghaei said Iran, with its long-standing record of opposing aggression and lawlessness, 'rejects selective indignation and double standards.' 'As always, we stand by the Syrian people and support Syria's national sovereignty and territorial integrity loud and clear,' he added. The statement came amid rising tensions in southern Syria's Suwayda province, where deadly clashes erupted last Sunday between armed Druze and Bedouin groups, prompting intervention by regime forces. Israel, under the pretext of protecting Druze communities, intensified its attacks across Syria, launching airstrikes on four provinces, including strikes on the General Staff headquarters and presidential palace in Damascus on Wednesday. On Thursday night, the Syrian presidency announced a new agreement mediated by Arab and American parties. Under the deal, regime troops began withdrawing from Suwayda to de-escalate tensions. — BERNAMA-ANADOLU

UN agency calls for lifting of Israel's ban on international media in Gaza

ISTANBUL: The head of the UN agency for Palestinian refugees on Friday called for an immediate end to Israel's ban on international media access to Gaza, warning that the information blackout is fuelling disinformation and undermining trust in eyewitness and humanitarian accounts. According to Anadolu Ajansi (AA), Philippe Lazzarini said on X that the media ban has persisted for over 650 days amid what he described as "atrocities against civilians." "The ban on the entry of international media must be lifted," Lazzarini said. He pointed out that more than 200 Palestinian journalists have been killed during the ongoing conflict. "Media ban fuels disinformation campaigns questioning firsthand data and accounts from eyewitnesses and international humanitarian organisations," he added. – Bernama-Anadolu
