FILE - This Tuesday, March 15, 2011 file photo shows the newly elected Maronite Patriarch Bechara Rai shortly after his election at the church's seat in Bkirki, northeast of Beirut, Lebanon. A planned visit by the leader of Lebanon's largest church to Jerusalem later this month has led to a controversy in this tiny Arab country that Israel invaded in the past and occupied parts of it for more than a decade. Rai, head of the Maronite Catholic church throughout the region, will be the first leader of the Middle Eastern church to visit the Holy Land since Israel was created in 1948. Rai says he is going to welcome Pope Francis who is scheduled to visit Jordan, the West Bank and Israel from May 24 to 26, 2014. Lebanon bans its citizens from visiting Israel or having contact with Israelis. (AP Photo/Bilal Hussein, File)

Bosnian women are comforted in front of a police cordon during a protest in the Bosnian capital of Sarajevo on Friday, May 9, 2014. A few hundred people from different parts of Bosnia have been protesting in Sarajevo over the high unemployment rate in the country and alleged government corruption. Protesters walked to the Sarajevo Library - a landmark destroyed during the Bosnian war - which is to be officially reopened today after reconstruction that has taken 18 years at the cost of over 16 million euros. They said they will continue the protest during the official ceremony to reopen the 19th century pseudo-Moorish construction that is expected to be attended by all top government officials as well as numerous international dignitaries.
