Italy orders N. Korea's envoy to leave
In July, North Korea nominated Mun Jong-nam as top envoy to Rome
Seoul - Muslimchronicle
Italy has ordered North Korea's newly-appointed ambassador to leave the country in an apparent bid to join the global drive to punish the North for its continued missile and nuclear provocations, a local media report showed Sunday.
According to South Korea’s News Agency (Yonhap), Italian Foreign Minister Angelino Alfano unveiled the decision in an interview with a local daily.
In July, North Korea nominated Mun Jong-nam as top envoy to Rome. He was to fill the post which had been vacant for about 20 months.
The minister was quoted as saying that the decision was made to stop the accreditation procedure for the ambassador, adding he will leave the country. He, however, noted that it does not mean cutting diplomatic ties with the North.
Italy is the second European country, following Spain, that has ordered the North Korean ambassador to leave. Mexico, Peru and Kuwait have also joined those countries in making the same decision.

Paris - Muslimchronicle
Two months after legendary designer Azzedine Alaia's sudden death plunged the fashion world into mourning, an exhibition in homage to the "King of Cling" opened Monday in his studios in Paris. The Tunisian-born designer, renowned for the way his clothes hugged the body, died suddenly in November aged 82, reportedly of heart failure after falling down the stairs at his home. The diminutive maverick, who ignored fashion week convention by showing when and where he wanted, in July produced his first couture collection in six years to rapturous reviews. Now some of his most iconic dresses are going on display in the glass-roofed gallery next to his studio and home in the Marais district where he used to show his creations. It includes the dress worn by supermodel Naomi Campbell, his longtime friend and muse, when she led his
