The man convicted of the bomb attack on the Boston Marathon has apologised to the victims. Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, a 21-year-old ethnic1 Chechen, was speaking in court before he was formally sentenced to death. Gary O'Donoghue reports.
This is the first time Dzhokhar Tsarnaev has said anything since the 2013 attack. And what he offered was an unalloyed apology. Throughout the trial, he said he'd learned the names, the faces, the ages of the victims of, what he called, a horrendous2 attack. He praised their patience and dignity, and asked Allah to forgive him and his brother, Tamerlan. Tsarnaev is expected to appeal against his death sentence, which means he could stand death roll for years to come.
Late-night talks between the Greek Prime Minister, Alexis Tsipras, and his country's international creditors3 have ended in Brussels, with sharp differences remaining over how to resolve the debt crisis. Earlier, Euro Zone finance ministers cut short a meeting that had been meant to finalise a deal. It's thought the International Monetary4 Fund wants the Greek government, which proposed new austerity measures and tax rises on Monday, to go further.
President Obama has raised ongoing5 U.S. concerns over China's cyber activities with a visiting high-ranking delegation6 from Beijing. He called on China to lower tensions. After the talks, the U.S. Secretary of State, John Kerry, said America had made its views very clear. There was an honest discussion about, without accusations7, without any finger-pointing, about the problem of cyber attack, and whether or not it was sanctioned by government, or whether it was hackers8 and individuals that the government has the ability to prosecute9. Washington has previously10 accused elements in the Chinese establishment of having an aggressive policy of hacking11 U.S. government and commercial computer systems. Beijing repudiates12 the allegations.
Buckingham Palace has insisted that Queen Elizabeth would never make a political point, following comments she made at a state banquet in Berlin about Europe. The Queen told guests "We know that division in Europe is dangerous, and we must guard against it in the west, as well as in the east, of our continent." Our correspondent, Ben Wright, is in Brussels.
Buckingham Palace officials denied that the Queen's warning about the dangers of a divided Europe was a reference to David Cameroon's E.U. reforms or referendum. This is not about the E.U., one aide said. Later today, David Cameroon takes his case for a reformed EU to Brussels. It is a big moment. The Prime Minister has already sketched13 out his plans to European leaders, hearing where they agree and where they don't. In the evening, he will set out his proposals during dinner. And this summit is likely to give the green light to the first stage of the formal renegotiation.

The French Parliament has adopted a controversial surveillance law, despite an outcry over WikiLeaks revelations that the United States spied on the last three French Presidents. The law would allow the French Intelligence Services to bug14 suspects' homes and put tracking beacons15 on their cars without judicial16 authorisation. It would also compel telecommunications firms to let the spy agencies record information about Internet communications, but not the contents of messages.
NATO defence ministers have agreed to bolster17 the organisation's response to, what the Secretary-General, Jens Stoltenberg, called, aggressive actions by Russia. Jonathan Marcus reports from NATO headquarters in Brussels.
Faced with a resurge of Russian threat that especially alarms many of NATO's Central and Eastern European members, alliance defence ministers have added air, naval18 and special forces elements to the planned Rapid Reaction Force, bringing it up to an overall strength of some forty thousand. Military planning has been overhauled19 along with the way that NATO takes decisions. The hope is to provide more immediate20, appropriate and flexible response to any future crisis.
Human Rights Watch says it's seen evidence suggesting high-ranking Army officers in Columbia knew about the murders of hundreds of civilians21 between 2002 and 2008. Most of the victims were poor farm workers, who were killed and then falsely identified as left-wing rebels or paramilitaries killed in combat. Members of the Army units involved earned promotions22 and decorations for their apparent success. Most of the soldiers convicted so far are of low rank.
And the daughter of the late singer, Whitney Houston, has been moved to a hospice, after months of treatment in hospital. Bobbi Kristina Brown, who is twenty-two, was found unresponsive in a bathtub in her home in Atlanta in January. Whitney Houston was found in similar circumstances in 2012, and later died.
波士顿马拉松爆炸袭击罪犯向遇难者致歉。车臣公民，21岁的焦哈尔·察尔纳耶夫(Dzhokhar Tsarnaev)被正式判处死刑之前在法庭讲话。Gary O'Donoghue报道。
这是自2013年爆炸袭击以来焦哈尔·察尔纳耶夫(Dzhokhar Tsarnaev)首次开口讲话。他做出了诚挚的道歉。在审判过程中，他表示自己了解了这场可怕的袭击中受害者的名字，面孔和年龄。他赞扬了他们的耐心和正直，祈求真主安拉宽恕他和他的哥哥塔梅尔兰(Tamerlan Tsarnaev)。察尔纳耶夫预期将会对死刑判决提起上诉，这意味着未来几年他都将位于死亡名单上。
希腊总理齐普拉斯(Alexis Tsipras)和国际债主之间的深夜会谈在布鲁塞尔结束，关于如何解决这场债务危机各方之间仍然存在严重的分歧。早些时候，欧元区财政部长中断了旨在完成一份协议的会议。周一，希腊政府提议实施新的紧缩措施，并提高税收，而国际货币基金组织希望他们能够更进一步。

白金汉宫坚持称，伊丽莎白女王永远不会发表政治观点。此前，她在柏林的国宴上发表了关于欧洲的言论。女王告诉宾客们“我们知道欧洲的分歧非常危险，我们必须保卫整个欧洲大陆的东方和西方。”我们的通讯员Ben Wright在布鲁塞尔报道。
白金汉宫官员否认女王警告的关于欧洲分裂的危险指的是大卫·卡梅伦提出的欧盟改革或公投。一位助手表示，女王的评论不是关于欧盟的。当天晚些时候，大卫·卡梅伦在布鲁塞尔提出了欧盟改革提案。这是非常重大的时刻。英国首相已经起草了递交给欧洲领导人的计划，听取了他们赞同和不赞同的地方。当天晚上，他将在晚宴上陈述自己的提议。这次峰会可能会为正式谈判的第一阶段开通道路。
