The President of Sudan Omar al-Bashir has been declared the winner of this month's presidential election, the country's first multi-party poll for nearly a quarter of a century. In the semi-autonomous south, Salva Kiir won the presidency. The election paves the way for a referendum in the south next January on its independence. James Copnall has more.

President Omar al-Bashir's 68% share of the vote was sizable rather than crushing, considering his two main challengers boycott it. His party sees the victory as a popular rebuke to the International Criminal Court which indicted President Bashir for alleged crimes against humanity committed in Darfur. But opposition parties and some local observers had said the polls were massively fraud and rejected the results. Now the focus turns at next January's referendum in which southerners will vote on possible independence.

German Chancellor Angela Merkel has warned Greece that it has to be prepared to accept tough economic measures for several years to come if it's to get its finances back in order. However, she said Germany felt an enormous obligation to the stability of the euro and would help.

European foreign ministers have reached agreement on setting up a diplomatic service for the European Union.

The governor said the sign will continue to welcome dreamers, artists and like him Austrian body-builders for generations to come.

德国总理安格拉·默克尔警告希腊，如果希腊想要其财政状况重回正轨，必须做好准备连续几年实施严厉的经济措施。然而，她表示，德国感到自己有义务维持欧元的稳定，所以会提供帮助。然而也有人担忧，她的政府可能会阻碍经济援助，因为5月9日德国将举行一场关键的区域性选举。Steve Rosenberg报道。
