citing health concerns
Brazil's top diplomat resigns
Brazilian Foreign Minister Jose Serra
SAO PAULO - ArabToday
Brazil's Foreign Minister Jose Serra resigned citing health concerns, in a new blow to Michel Temer's administration.
Serra, 74, said health problems made him unable to keep up with the rhythm of leading the foreign ministry of Latin America's biggest nation.
He did not disclose what medical problems he is addressing. A government source said it was related to his spine on which he has had surgery in the past.
Serra was a highly experienced official and former presidential candidate.
Temer has low popularity ratings amid a vast corruption scandal. He took over as president in May to replace Dilma Rousseff, who was later impeached.
Temer already had lost seven leading members of his government -- six ministers and a senior adviser.
Brazil's economy shrank 3.5 percent in 2015 and an estimated 3.6 percent last year.

to 'eternal style' of late Alaia
Paris - Emiratesvoice
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" opens 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.

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
