France's Justice Minister Christiane Taubira has resigned over a "major political disagreement" with the government's harsh anti-terrorism proposals - which include stripping the French citizenship of dual-nationals convicted of terrorism offenses.  "I am choosing to be true to myself, to my commitments, my battles and my relationships with other people," Ms. Taubira said on social media.  The proposal would allow the government to strip French nationality from dual nationals, even if they were born in France.  Her replacement, Jean-Jacques Urvoas, and Prime Minister Manuel Valls plan to support it when it comes up for debate next month.

A French court is ordering the app-based ride service Uber to compensate a Paris cab company, because Uber drivers have been picking up passengers signalling from the streets.  Only Taxi drivers who pay more for their licenses are allowed to do that in France.

US scientists are warning that a vaccine for the Zika Virus could be ten years away, once development, testing, and government approvals are completed.  Researchers at the University of Texas Medical Branch in Galveston are analyzing samples that they collected in Brazil, where the Zika virus is blamed for causing nearly 4,000 cases of a birth defect called microcephaly, which is an abnormally small skull.  The Zika crisis in Brazil is threatening to impact Carnival next month, and the summer Olympics later in the year.

Sierra Leone police clashed with protesters upset over the closing of a market in Barmoi town, where someone died of Ebola earlier this month.  Three people were shot and taken to hospital.  Cops denied firing, and claimed they only used tear gas after their station was attacked.  Market day is the mainstay over the local economy, but vendors agreed to shut down until 43 people who had contact with the patient could be found and quarantined.  More than 11,300 people died in the West African Ebola Epidemic, 3,955 in Sierra Leone.

Suspected Boko Haram bombers killed at least 13 people in Chibok, the northeastern Nigerian town where the terrorists kidnapped more than 200 schoolgirls in 2014.  Witnesses say the first of three bombers struck at a police checkpoint, and the other two attacked a market.  President Muhammadu Buhari was in Kenya at the memorial for scores of Kenyan soldiers killed by Africa's other major Islamist group Al Shabaab.  "We must rise against the culture of intolerance, hatred, and extremist ideologies, which drive terrorism," President Buhari told those gathered.

Turkish prosecutors sent shock waves with their demand for life sentences for two journalists over a story showing the Turkish government was arming Islamist militants in Syria.  Cumhuriyet newspaper's editor-in-chief Can Dundar and its Ankara representative Erdem Gul are charged with espionage.  EU Commissioner Johannes Hahn said he was "shocked" at the draconian move, and Human Rights Watch said the two "were doing their job as journalists and no more than that".  US Vice President Joe Biden visited with Mr. Dundar's wife last week in a show of support.  Journalistic freedom is rapidly evaporating in Turkey, and the country ranks 149th among the 180 countries in the Reporters Without Borders' World Press Freedom Index 2015.

US President Barack Obama bypassed the surly Republican Congress and issued new guidelines to ease up trading restrictions with Cuba. American companies are now allowed to lend money to Cuban entrepreneurs, invest in infrastructure projects, and US studios have fewer hurdles to clear to shoot films in Cuba.  The two nations normalized relations last year after more than five decades of Cold War.
