Gates of Vienna News Feed 4/23/2010

Gates of Vienna News Feed 4/23/2010The political situation in Belgium has become quite unstable, thanks to the withdrawal of Flemish Conservatives from the coalition government. Prime Minister Yves Leterme resigned, but King Albert II refused to accept his resignation. There will be more negotiations, more delay, and more uncertainty before Belgium gets a fully functional government.

In other news, according to South Korean military sources, the South Korean Navy corvette that sank on the 26th of March was hit by a torpedo from a North Korean submarine. This finding is based on evidence gathered by American and South Korean intelligence.
