[EX Q]: The announcement came after eurozone ministers approved a Greek request for a two-month extension to its bailout programme, due to end later this month. The presidential vote on 17 December will be a vital test for embattled Prime Minister Antonis Samaras. His decision prompted the stock market in Athens to plummet 9.5% on Tuesday. Analysts said the markets had been spooked by the risk of snap elections, which will take place if the conservative-led government's nomination is not approved by parliament. President Karolos Papoulias's five-year term ends in March, and a vote had been expected in February. Mr Samaras's conservative-led coalition needs the support of other parties if its candidate is to obtain the backing of MPs. But the left-wing anti-bailout Syriza party is leading in the opinion polls and the government faces widespread public discontent after a six-year recession. Risky vote Hours after saying he would bring forward the presidential vote, Mr Samaras gave a televised address announcing that his coalition was nominating former European Commissioner Stavros Dimas as its candidate. "When the current parliament elects a president at the end of the month the clouds will be gone and the country will be ready to officially enter the post-bailout era," the prime minister said, linking the vote in parliament to the end of the unpopular programme of support from the EU and IMF. Since 2010 Greece has received almost €240bn (£190bn; $295bn) in rescue funds, which are due to be replaced next year by a new eurozone credit line that can be accessed in an emergency. Syriza's leader Alexis Tsipras accused the government of rushing it through in a "desperate attempt" to hide new austerity measures. He has pledged to end austerity cuts and any co-operation with either EU or IMF lenders. Mr Samaras's government narrowly pushed through its 2015 budget in the early hours of Monday, securing 155 votes in the 300-seat parliament. But if it is to convince MPs to back its presidential candidate it will need far greater support from the chamber. Two hundred MPs are needed to back a candidate in the first or second vote, and 180 for the third vote. The second and third rounds of the vote are scheduled for 23 and 29 December. Mr Samaras will have to secure the backing of 25 opposition lawmakers to reach 180 votes. Monday's move to extend the bailout and advance the date of the presidential vote came a day after violent protests in Athens, with more than 300 demonstrators arrested. The demonstration was held to mark six years since police shot dead an unarmed teenager during protests fuelled by anger over the country's economic crisis. "The coming period is essential to find an agreement [with the eurozone] to settle issues like the debt, and Greece has to have the full capacity to mobilise its forces in a climate of national unity and political stability," the government said in its statement. Some investors are worried about a return to the days of financial crisis as the presidential vote looms.
[EX A]: Greece has brought forward to this month the date of its next presidential election, which is conducted by the country's parliament.

[EX Q]: By Imogen FoulkesBBC News, Bern Had they said yes, it would have been the first step towards full membership of the European Union, and by now Switzerland would probably be one of the more longstanding members of the EU. But in a result which surprised many, and which is still the closest ever vote in Switzerland's post-war history, 49.7% of those voting said yes to membership, but 50.3% said no. Switzerland's economy minister at the time, the late Jean-Pascal Delamuraz, called it "Black Sunday", warning of damage to the Swiss jobs market, and a young generation of Swiss who would be "deprived". And 20 years on many Swiss, like political scientist Georg Lutz at the University of Lausanne, still remember the disappointment of that day very clearly. "It was a big surprise, it was one of the first times I was allowed to vote and I voted in favour," he remembers. "And suddenly there was a no, which hardly anybody expected, because we were in the times when it was the end of the Cold War, there was this liberal movement towards Europe. And suddenly it was almost the reverse dynamic." Success in isolation But two decades later the disappointment has eased, and the dire warnings of Mr Delamuraz have not come true. Quite the contrary in fact. Switzerland's economy is doing very well - its unemployment rate, at less than 3%, is the envy of its European neighbours. Christoph Blocher of the right-wing Swiss People's Party (SVP) was the key figure in the No campaign 20 years ago. He appealed to a traditional image of Switzerland, his rallies were determinedly nationalistic, he even often appeared carrying large cow bells. Also, as one of Switzerland's leading businessmen, he spent 2m francs (£1.3m; $2.2m) of his personal fortune on the campaign. Looking at Switzerland today, he is as convinced as ever that his go-it-alone policy is the only right one. "Twenty years ago I heard the same thing all the time: there's no alternative to European Union membership, there's no alternative to those colonial agreements (with Brussels)," he told parliament earlier this year. "But look at the alternatives the Swiss people have voted for, and compare them with the intellectual bankruptcy outside our borders. The alternative is to stay true to Switzerland, to represent our strengths, our financial sector, our jobs, our well-being and our freedom. The alternative is to say no [to agreements with Europe]." Accepting EU policies Analysts of Switzerland's relationship with Europe, however, say it is not quite as simple as that. The Swiss No vote coincided with a downturn in Switzerland's economy - both the public deficit and unemployment were rising. Swiss political and business leaders viewed the prospect of being shut out of the European market with horror, and just weeks after the No vote Swiss diplomats were in Brussels, nervously presenting a request to negotiate bilaterally. They knew that in order to preserve their access to Europe's lucrative trade markets, they would have to sign up to the very policies the Swiss voters had rejected. And since 1992 Switzerland has concluded more than 100 agreements with the EU, among them the key elements of EU policy. "Although Switzerland turned down membership, in the years afterwards all the major issues like free movement of people have been agreed with the EU," says Georg Lutz. "So the situation isn't so different these days, especially with regard to migration." Magnet for EU workers Switzerland's agreement to free movement of people is a particular irony: in 1992 opinion polls showed that one of the key factors in the No vote was a fear of immigration, and of Switzerland being forced to let in too many foreign workers. At that point foreigners in Switzerland made up 20% of the population. Today the figure is 25%, and the increase is due almost entirely to the arrival of EU citizens. Switzerland has in fact seen much higher numbers of EU workers coming in than many of its neighbours who are full members of the EU. So is Switzerland better off outside the EU? "No one will ever know," says Mr Lutz. "Yes the economy is healthy, unemployment is low, but nobody will ever know if Switzerland might have been even more successful if the country had joined the European Union." Unsurprisingly, given the crisis in the eurozone, opinion polls today show the Swiss have little enthusiasm for Brussels: barely 11% say they would consider membership. And now a new era of agonised decision-making may be approaching, because Brussels has told the Swiss government the EU is no longer interested in pursuing bilateral agreements. Instead Brussels wants Switzerland to automatically adopt EU law - a suggestion which is already causing Swiss hackles to rise. Bilateral stalemate Meanwhile various unsigned bilateral agreements, including a crucial one on energy, are gathering dust in Brussels. A deal with Europe is fundamental to the Swiss economy, so the current stalemate is not an option. But when one Swiss politician recently proposed going back to square one, and voting again on joining the European Economic Area, he was ridiculed, with colleagues suggesting he "drink a glass of Swiss wine to clear his head". Any suggestion that Switzerland should officially join Europe is still, it seems, political dynamite, and very few in the political establishment dare touch it. A pity, says Georg Lutz, since, he believes, both sides might have benefited over the last 20 years from a closer relationship. The EU in particular, he suggests, might have learned something from Switzerland's prudence - in particular its legal limits on public debt. "(If Switzerland had been a member) I guess we would have pushed for fiscal conservatism throughout the entire time, because that's the tradition in our country as well. "But whether Switzerland would have succeeded with that, I have some doubts."
[EX A]: Twenty years ago this week Swiss voters said no, by the tiniest of margins, to membership of what was then the European Economic Area.

[EX Q]: The carmaker said it will build the first new assembly plant in Detroit for nearly three decades. It is a boost to the area after General Motors announced it would shut two Michigan sites as part of a wider restructuring plan costing 14,000 jobs. GM's decision late last year drew fire from US President Donald Trump. The US President has put pressure on the car industry to build vehicles inside the US. GM blamed the move on a shift in consumer preference from sedan cars to larger SUVs. Bigger vehicles such as SUVs and trucks now make up nearly 70% of car purchases in North America, Fiat Chrysler said its investment in Michigan was part of its strategy expand its Jeep SUV and Ram truck brands. The company will convert two of its plants, one of which has been idle since 2012, into the assembly site for its new Jeep Grand Cherokee as well as a new three row Jeep SUV. It will also be equipped to build plug-in electric hybrid vehicles. Fiat Chrysler said that the new facility will be the first assembly plant to be built in the city of Detroit since 1991 when its Jefferson North site was constructed. As a result of the investment across five of its plants in Michigan, Fiat Chrysler said it would now no longer move production of its Ram Heavy Duty truck from Saltillo, in Mexico, to the US. Trump trade talks The company had promised to shift production of the model to its Warren plant, near Detroit, by 2020, a move which had won praise from Mr Trump. Meanwhile, the President threatened to "tariff the hell out of" the European Union as part of trade talks which could see the US lift duties on European car imports from 10% to 25%. The US wants to include agriculture as part of the trade talks, but Brussels has refused. The EU wants to negotiate lower car tariffs. In a meeting with US governors on Monday, Mr Trump said: "The European Union is very, very tough. Very, very tough. They don't allow our products in. They don't allow our farming goods in."
[EX A]:
Fiat Chrysler Automobiles has announced plans to pump $4.5bn (£3.4bn) into the Michigan vehicle industry which will create 6,500 new jobs.
