Pigeons have to be one of the most unloved animals that humans ever drew to our side. The birds that flock European squares descended from domesticated rock doves some 10,000 years ago, and so are unusually relaxed around humans. The feeling isn’t mutual, however. These gregarious birds tend to bring out irritation and disgust in people - as well as more nurturing instincts in those willing to share their crumbs. But the pigeon-human relationship has taken a more drastic turn in one German town. Limburg an der Lahn, in the western German state of Hesse, has just voted to exterminate its 700-st...

Tauben gehören wohl zu den unbeliebtesten Tieren. Die Vögel, die europäische Plätze bevölkern, stammen von domestizierten Felsentauben ab, die vor etwa 10.000 Jahren domestiziert wurden. Sie sind ungewöhnlich "entspannt" gegenüber Menschen. Das Gefühl beruht jedoch nicht auf Gegenseitigkeit. Diese geselligen Vögel rufen bei den Menschen eher Irritation und Ekel hervor - und bei denen, die bereit sind, ihre Krümel mit ihnen zu teilen, eher Fürsorgeinstinkte. Doch in einer deutschen Stadt hat die Beziehung zwischen Tauben und Menschen eine drastische Wendung genommen. Die westhessische Stadt Lim...

A French minister has accused Azerbaijan of interfering in the politics of New Caledonia, the French Overseas territory that has seen a startling outbreak of fresh political violence. In a TV interview, Interior Minister Gérald Darmanin said it was "not a fantasy, but a reality" that certain pro-independence leaders in New Caledonia had "made a deal" with Azerbaijan.

France is sovereign on its own territory, and so much the be...

Joseph (United States) (AFP) - From the sun-dappled, tree-lined village of Joseph, Debbie Price can see the distant snowy peaks of the Seven Devils, a series of mountains in the Rockies that mark Oregon's border with Idaho. But for many eastern Oregonians like Price, that frontier no longer feels relevant. The 64-year-old retiree is part of a local movement that wants to redraw the region's map so that they can secede to join the neighboring, more conservative state of Idaho. "There's a lot more freedom in Idaho than there is here," said the former legal assistant, who traveled across the sta...

United Nations (United States) (AFP) - The United Nations General Assembly on Wednesday overwhelmingly voted to condemn Russia's annexation of parts of Ukraine, a move US President Joe Biden said sent a "clear message" to Moscow.

The resolution "condemns the organization by the Russian Federation of so-called referendums within the internationally recognized border...

Kyiv (Ukraine) (AFP) - Kremlin-installed authorities in four Ukrainian regions under Russian control claimed victory Tuesday in annexation votes, drawing global outrage, as Moscow warned it could use nuclear weapons to defend the territories. Ukraine and its allies have denounced the so-called referendums as a sham, saying the West would never recognise the results of the ballots, which have dramatically ratcheted up the stakes of Russia's seven-month invasion. Pro-Russian authorities in Zaporizhzhia said 93.11 percent of voters backed joining Russia, according to preliminary results on Tuesda...
