Confetti rain on marching Filipino UN Peacekeepers as they are given a heroes welcome Wednesday, Oct.1, 2014 at Camp Aguinaldo at suburban Quezon city northeast of Manila, Philippines. In a separate ceremony at the Presidential Palace earlier, Philippine President Benigno Aquino III says his government will no longer deploy troops to security hotspots in the world where they can face unclear or impossible U.N. peacekeeping missions like in the Golan Heights, where Filipino forces came under attack by al-Qaida-linked insurgents. Aquino III said Wednesday hundreds of Filipino peacekeepers were tasked to guard a buffer zone separating Israel and Syria. But when the current Syrian conflict spilled over into the buffer zone and anti-government Islamic militants started attacking the Filipino peacekeepers, their mission became unclear.(AP Photo/Bullit Marquez)

FILE - This Thursday, April 17, 2014, file photo shows President Abdelaziz Bouteflika, centre, in a wheelchair, waving as he leaves after voting in the presidential elections in Algiers. The absence of ailing Algerian President Abdelaziz Bouteflika in the aftermath of the kidnap and murder of a French hiker has re-ignited the debate over his fitness to rule this oil-rich North African nation that is a key ally in the fight against terror. Despite suffering from a stroke last year and being largely absent from the election campaign, Bouteflika still won a fourth term in April but has been barely seen since. .
