WWW.FOXNEWS.COMChristie Brinkley admits she and 27-year old daughter matched with the exact same men on dating appsChristie Brinkley and her daughter Sailor Brinkley-Cook have plenty in common despite their 44-year difference.The supermodel, 71, recently appeared on Kristin Davis "Are You a Charlotte?" podcast, where she described how her "mischievous" youngest child, 27, put her on a dating app for an hour without her knowing.Both women were shocked by the results."[Sailor] said, Mom, youre right not to go on [dating apps] because the same guys that, you know, said yes to me are saying yes to you," the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model revealed.CHRISTIE BRINKLEY REVEALS BILLY JOELS THREE FINAL WORDS TO HER BEFORE SHE LEFT HIMA stunned Davis, 60, replied, "I love this experiment! Smart Sailor.""That is a really fascinating, fascinating little experiment," the "Sex & the City" alum gushed.Brinkley then shared what she had learned about the dating world at her age."I find that what men like to do is sort of be able to find somebody that'll be impressed by every little thing that they do," said Brinkley. "Like, Oh really? Oh, you're taking me to that restaurant? Ooh!"Brinkley recently opened up about her many loves and heartaches in the memoir "Uptown Girl." She admitted to Davis that she was initially hesitant to bare all for readers."I really have had a lot of adventures," Brinkley explained. "And whenever I tell my adventure stories, people always say, 'Youve got to write a book. So, I started writing the book, and I quickly discovered some chapters I really didnt want to write about. But those are the chapters I think that my publishers were most interested in."CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR THE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSLETTER"Theyre like, People will relate because people go through divorces and people go through all of that it has to be relatable," said Brinkley. "And if youre going to give the fun adventures and some of the stuff that modeling has afforded me, you also have to say its not always the good stuff."These days, Brinkley is more interested in staying active and pursuing her passions, with or without a special someone in her life. She hopes it will inspire others, no matter their age."I just feel like age is sort of that last frontier in America that does need addressing, but we have to be kinder about it They say that the key is not to have to live to be 150, but to be healthy every day until the day you just fall asleep and dont wake up peacefully."WATCH: CHRISTIE BRINKLEY OPENS UP IN NEW MEMOIR UPTOWN GIRLBrinkley and her lookalike daughter have been sharing twinning moments lately.On Aug. 4, the pair sported the same summery orange wrap outfits by Donna Karan at the Solving Kids Cancer Annual Hamptons Luncheon in New York. The mother and daughter have also been active on social media together, where they showcase their personal style.Their appearances together came shortly after Brinkley spoke out about her new tell-all, which is available in bookstores now.In her memoir "Uptown Girl," Brinkley wrote about how her romantic relationships impacted her over the years, including her nearly 10-year marriage to Billy Joel. Brinkley described how alcohol was "the other woman" in their marriage."To be clear, I never wanted to end things with Billy. I read every self-help book I could find while, together, we went to see a string of psychiatrists, psychologists, and other medical doctors," Brinkley wrote in an excerpt obtained by Fox News Digital."I did everything for our marriage, constantly working to make myself, our home, and everything around us into whatever he could possibly want or hope for. I continually told him how much I loved him, making sure he always felt adored and appreciated, because he was.LIKE WHAT YOURE READING? CLICK HERE FOR MORE ENTERTAINMENT NEWS"But his drinking was bigger than the both of us booze was the other woman, and it was beginning to seem that he preferred to be with her rather than with me," Brinkley wrote.Brinkley and Joel were married from 1985 until the model filed for divorce in 1994. They share a daughter, singer/songwriter Alexa Ray Joel.Brinkley recently told Fox News Digital that it wasn't easy to end her marriage to Joel."When you have a child involved, you may get those thoughts, but to walk away isn't easy," she explained. "And to walk away from Billy was not easy. So, it took time, but at a certain point, there's one incident too many, and you just have to have a little self-preservation."Both the model and the musician have since moved on. Brinkley was briefly married to Richard Taubman from 1994 to 1995. She was married toPeter Cook from 1996 to 2008. They share a daughter, Sailor. Cook also adopted Jack Brinkley-Cook from her previous marriage to Taubman.Joel married Katie Lee in 2004, only to split in 2009. He is now married to Alexis Roderick. The couple has two daughters.Brinkley also detailed how her fourth husband, Cook, wasunfaithful after eight years of marriage.In 2006, Brinkley was at a graduation ceremony to give a commencement speech. A man, who happened to be a police officer, approached her and said that Cook was involved with his 18-year-old daughter."I know from Peters face that he was guilty," Brinkley wrote in her book. "When your whole world falls apart, and you realize in a heartbeat youve suddenly become the clich middle-aged woman whose husband is having an affair with a much (much) younger woman, what do you do?"That night, Cook was out of the house, and friends urged Brinkley to search the family computer. They even came over to help, an operation Brinkley said looked like something out of "Charlies Angels." There, she found a "creepy labyrinth of files and photos I never knew existed.""I was good at guessing passwords, and soon enough, a panoply of frightening email exchanges, incriminating photos, and porn accounts populated the screen like fireworks,"Brinkley wrote. "It was so insane that it was almost funny, and soon enough, the three of us were doubled over in laughter, as printouts of girls in X-rated poses began piling up on the floor faster than trash outside a greasy takeaway."Brinkley and Cook's split resulted in a highly publicized court battle.In 2023, at age 64, Cook said "I do" once more to Alba Jancou, who was 24 at the time.Brinkley previously told Fox News Digital she dares to love again.CHRISTIE BRINKLEY RECOUNTS THE DEVASTATING PERSONAL MOMENT THAT NEARLY BROKE HER"I find that love is the strongest thing in the whole world, and we are surrounded by love," she said. "There are so many kinds of love and love for our friends, love for our families, love for nature and love for people that protect nature. I love love I feel like my life is so full of love.""I think if theresa romantic love that comes along, it would be wonderful," she shared. "But I also feel very content and happy with the life that I have right now. I consider my life to be very full of love."0 Reacties 0 aandelen 5 Views 0 voorbeeld

WWW.FOXNEWS.COMGhislaine Maxwell prison transfer called 'highly unusual' by former federal prison officialThe former assistant director at the Federal Bureau of Prisons says that Jeffrey Epstein's accomplice's move to a minimum security prison is "highly unusual."Ghislaine Maxwell was transferred from a federal prison facility in Tallahassee, Florida, to a Federal Prison Camp in Bryan, Texas, her attorney previously told Fox News Digital. Neither the Bureau of Prisons nor Maxwell's attorney gave a reason for the move.Others at the female-only faculty, FPC Bryan, include Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes and celebrity housewife Jen Shah. The prison primarily houses white-collar criminals convicted of non-violent crimes.The move sparked criticism from the family of Virginia Giuffre, who said in a statement to Fox News they oppose the treatment Maxwell has been given.JUSTICE DEPARTMENT WEIGHS RELEASE OF GHISLAINE MAXWELL INTERVIEW"It is with horror and outrage that we object to the preferential treatment convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell has received," Giuffre's family wrote in a statement. "Ghislaine Maxwell is a sexual predator who physically assaulted minor children on multiple occasions, and she should never be shown any leniency. Yet, without any notification to the Maxwell victims, the government overnight has moved Maxwell to a minimum security luxury prison in Texas. This is the justice system failing victims right before our eyes."Judi Garrett, former assistant director at the Federal Bureau of Prisons, told Fox News Digital the transfer of Maxwell to FCP Bryan is "highly unusual."Garrett said it's "very rare" for a sex offender to be transferred to a minimum security facility like FCP Bryan, adding that traditionally, individuals designated as a sex offender cannot be placed inside a camp.ELIZABETH HOLMES SPOTTED AT TEXAS PRISON WHERE GHISLAINE MAXWELL WAS TRANSFERRED"I am sure there were more than one, but it was very rare, and it required a tremendous amount of work to convince us at the Bureau of Prisons that that information initially contained in the pre-sentencing investigation report was somehow inaccurate, mischaracterized, etc," Garrett said.At federal prison camps like FPC Bryan, Garrett said that there's no fence, and prisoners aren't watched constantly."Being that camps are minimum security, the notion is we don't have fear that the people are going to run off because they are unrestricted essentially," Garrett said. "You could leave whenever you want, there's no fence. We don't fear that you are gonna harm one another, and we don't have fear that you are going pose any kind of risk to the community. Minimal staffing so that people are not watching you all the time, supervising you all time."Since Maxwell is at a minimum-security prison camp, Garrett said it's not likely prison guards will be able to keep a closer eye on Maxwell versus other inmates."Really hard to do in a camp, you just don't have staff there," she said. "I don't know, honestly, that there's a lot they can do, and I think that's probably what is giving them some heartburn, given her connection to Jeffrey Epstein."Dave Aronberg, former Palm Beach County State Attorney, previously told Fox News Digital Maxwell's new facility is more of a "dorm-style housing situation, rather than a cell."Maxwell's move to FCP Bryan comes a week after she met with Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche at a courthouse in Florida to discuss her involvement with Epstein, whom she helped procure underage girls for him to abuse.A senior administration official previously told Fox News that "Any false assertion this individual was given preferential treatment is absurd. Prisoners are routinely moved in some instances due to significant safety and danger concerns."Fox News' Julia Bonavita and David Spunt contributed to this report.0 Reacties 0 aandelen 5 Views 0 voorbeeld

WWW.FOXNEWS.COMFood feud: Woman 'blew up' at boyfriend over his reaction to her home-cooked mealsA woman received an outpouring of support after revealing that her boyfriend of five years rarely compliments her home-cooked meals yet gushes over takeout and leftovers from work.It caused a huge blowout between them, she said on Reddit, and sparked a debate online, too."Yesterday, I made a meal from scratch and, as usual, he ate it silently and only said it was good after I asked," the woman wrote on the platform recently. "Then, today, we had a meal he brought from work and immediately reacted with an enthusiastic, 'Mmm.'"MAN STRAINS GIRLFRIEND'S MOTHER'S HOMEMADE SOUP TO REMOVE GINGER: 'WHERE ARE YOUR MANNERS?'"That hit a nerve," she admitted. "I blew up."In the midst of the argument, the boyfriend claimed he tries to compliment her cooking but often forgets. That only made her more upset, the woman shared."Why does he have to try so hard?" she wrote. "I don't want forced compliments. I just want him to be honest."The 25-year-old woman, who also shared that she is Slavic, described herself as an accomplished home cook."Everything you can name, I can cook," she said in the comments section, adding that she prepares dishes from their shared cultural background, as well as Chinese, Thai and more.FED-UP WOMAN REFUSES TO BE BREAKFAST CHEF FOR SISTER'S CHILDREN: 'GO ASK YOUR MOM'Her boyfriend, she noted, grew up in a household in which home-cooked meals were the norm and takeout was a treat."Now I'm wondering if I overreacted," she wrote.Most users sided with her."Cooking is a labor of love," one commenter wrote. "Your guy doesn't understand that, but he needs to learn."Said another person, "My [significant other] thanks me and compliments me even if it doesn't turn out that great. He's not just complimenting the food, he's grateful for my time and effort."WOMAN GOES VIRAL ON REDDIT FOR CALLING OUT HUSBAND'S LAST-MINUTE PARTY DEMANDSMelanie Williams, a Baltimore-based psychotherapist, said it boils down to one of the most common relationship problems she sees."It's entitlement," she told Fox News Digital."She was right to speak up because if she didn't address it now, his entitlement would likely have continued and worsened."But not everyone agreed.One person said the girlfriend was being too "touchy."CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR OUR LIFESTYLE NEWSLETTERAnother said, "Cook for him either because you enjoy it or because you've mutually determined it's your fair share of the household labor. Not something to start a fight over."Other people said compliments can't be forced."Otherwise it's performative and what's the point of that?" one person wrote.For more Lifestyle articles, visitfoxnews.com/lifestyleBut certified life and parenting coach Randi Crawford of California said it's all about being seen."She's pouring energy into this relationship, and he's acting like dinner magically appears from the kitchen staff," Crawford said.The woman should sit her boyfriend down and tell him she is hurt, Crawford said."Say, 'I don't need a production every night, but I do need you to notice me, not just the DoorDash guy,'" she advised."And if he can't do that? Stop bending over backwards and let him know: 'Appreciation isn't optional in this relationship it's the bare minimum,'" Crawford added."And if he still doesn't get it? Let's see how quiet he gets when your kitchen is closed for business."0 Reacties 0 aandelen 5 Views 0 voorbeeld

WWW.FOXNEWS.COMInside NASA's fast-track plans for lunar nuclear power and new space stations to outpace global rivalsAmid significant budget cuts, NASA is fast-tracking the development of nuclear reactors on the moon and next-generation space stations with one clear objective: beating U.S. adversaries in the new space race.Two new memos signed by interim NASA chief and Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy outline a bold strategy to secure strategic ground on the moon. The centerpiece of this effort is a lunar nuclear reactor, a renewable and stable power source to support long-term exploration."The goal is to power everything," a senior NASA official told Fox News Digital. "Our systems, habitats, rovers, robotic equipment, even future mining operations everything we want to do on the moon depends on this."The moons environment makes this a necessity. Its month-long day cycle two weeks of daylight followed by two weeks of darknessc renders solar power unreliable. A reactor would allow missions to function around the clock.TRANSPORTATION SECRETARY DUFFY TO ANNOUNCE NUCLEAR REACTOR DEVELOPMENT PLAN FOR THE MOONNASA officials warn that China and Russia have publicly announced plans for a joint lunar nuclear project by the mid-2030s. If they succeed first, they could establish exclusive control over the moons most valuable areas, locations with the most light and access to water and ice."They could set up a keep-out zone in the prime locations," the NASA official cautioned.Despite financial constraints, Duffys leadership signals a renewed priority to lunar and Martian exploration."China has already landed on the far side of the moon. We never have," the official added. "Theyre moving on a steady path to dominate this domain."The new directive solicits proposals for a 100-kilowatt nuclear reactor enough to power about 80 homes with a target launch date of 2030. It also requires NASA to appoint a dedicated program leader.Today, many robotic spacecraft operate at just a few watts, the equivalent of a couple of light bulbs, which severely limits scientific capabilities. While the ISS uses solar panels, that model doesnt work on the moon or Mars, where sunlight is too weak or unreliable.The second memo shifts focus to replacing the aging and leaking International Space Station (ISS), which is scheduled to be retired in 2030. Without a successor, China would become the only country with a permanently crewed station in orbit.NASA now plans to select two commercial partners within six months of issuing new requests for proposals. Under Duffys direction, the agency is moving away from traditional fixed-price contracts and will instead use flexible Space Act Agreements, which give companies more freedom in how they build stations while saving time and money.CHINESE SATELLITES COMPLETE GROUNDBREAKING MISSION 22,000 MILES ABOVE EARTH"Were telling companies what we need," a senior NASA official said. "But were not prescribing how they must do it. That flexibility saves us both time and resources."NASA wants the new station to be cheaper and easier to maintain than the ISS. Originally, it envisioned a platform that could host two astronauts for six months. But, under the revised plan, the minimum requirement is four astronauts for just one month.NASAs Commercial Low Earth Orbit Destination (CLD) initiative, launched in 2021, was structured in two phases:Duffys directive calls for skipping fixed-price contracts in Phase 2 and continuing with Space Act Agreements, in line with tightening budget constraints.According to the Trump administrations fiscal 2026 budget proposal, NASAs overall budget would drop from $24.8 billion to $18.8 billion, a 25% cut. The Science Mission Directorate, which oversees research in planetary science, astrophysics, Earth observation and heliophysics, would face a nearly 50% reduction. However, human spaceflight programs are slated for increased funding.NASA has also confirmed that nearly 4,000 employees about 20% of its workforce have taken voluntary buyouts in recent months.Despite these setbacks, agency officials remain optimistic."Multiple companies tell us they can deliver a station within two years," one senior official said. "Timelines are always challenging, but we believe we can meet these goals even on a leaner budget."0 Reacties 0 aandelen 22 Views 0 voorbeeld

WWW.FOXNEWS.COMMan caught on video attacking pro-life protesters gets slap on wrist by judgeA 28-year-old man who was caught on video attacking two pro-life activists outside a Planned Parenthood clinic in Baltimore was sentenced this week to a year of home detention and three years of probation.Baltimore Circuit Judge Yvette M. Bryant rebuffed prosecutors calls for a 10-year sentence against Patrick Brice, 28, after he was found guilty of two counts of second-degree assault and reckless endangerment in relation to the May 2023 incident, according to The Baltimore Banner."What about my rights and my well-being?" one of the victims in the attack, Mark Crosby -- who was 73 years old at the time -- reportedly shouted at Bryant on Thursday as she left the bench.Brice said on May 26, 2023, he intended to debate Richard Schaefer the other victim, who was 84 about the concept of sin outside the Planned Parenthood facility, but then lost it after Schaefer made what he perceived to be a racial remark, The Baltimore Banner reported. Surveillance video showed Brice shoving Schaefer into a flowerpot and then assaulting Crosby when he rushed to his aid.FLASHBACK: BALTIMORE POLICE INVESTIGATING REPORTED VICIOUS ASSAULT ON PRO-LIFE ACTIVISTS OUTSIDE PLANNED PARENTHOOD"I just snapped one day," Brice was quoted by The Baltimore Banner as saying in court Thursday before apologizing to both men.As part of his sentence, Brice must complete anger management classes, undergo drug and alcohol screening and remain in therapy, the website added.It also said Crosby suffered permanent damage to his right eye as a result of the assault."This was not a minor altercation between two parties with differing views on abortion. It was a vicious, targeted assault on two senior citizens whose only offense was praying for expectant mothers and offering life-affirming alternatives to abortion," Tom Brejcha, the President and Chief Counsel of the conservative law firm Thomas More Society, said in a statement."One of the victims was knocked unconscious. The other suffered broken facial bones and a lifelong eye impairment. This was an act of cowardice and cruelty, and sheer mayhem. This crime deserves far more serious consequences than a get out of jail free card and a one-year home detention that amounts to nothing more than a slap on the wrist," he added.In May 2023, images posted on the Facebook page of Jay Walton, the president of the Baltimore County Right to Life chapter,purportedly showed Crosby wearing a shirt with the message "Pro Life," with swelling over his eye and blood covering his face following the attack. "One of our volunteers, Mark Crosby, was brutally beaten on May 26, 2023, while he was praying in front of the Planned Parenthood in Baltimore City," Walton wrote on a GoFundMe page at the time. "Mark is currently in the hospital being treated for the serious injuries he sustained." "For years, Mark has prayed in front of the Planned Parenthood in Baltimore City to let the scared, young abortion-minded women know that they are loved, that their baby is loved," Walton added. PRO-LIFE ALLY: PRO-ABORTION ASSAULT RESPONSE 'TROUBLING'; TRUMP'S PLANNED PARENTHOOD FUNDING CUT 'GREAT STEP'In a redacted police report, a Baltimore police officer said one of the victims, later identified as Crosby, told investigators he was standing outside the Planned Parenthood clinic "in support of Pro-life ideals when an unidentified [white male] attacked another member of the same beliefs as [him]." The individual "stated that he immediately went to assist and was struck by the suspect and fell to the ground where he was struck in the face," the report said. Police say the other victim, later identified as Schaefer, "advised the suspect had approached volunteer members of the Planned Parenthood and spoke with them before directing his attention to him. That victim said "the suspect spoke with him in an aggressive manner, opposing [his] pro-life ideals and without warning tackled him into a large flowerpot," the report added.It also noted that several witnesses saw the assault unfold, with one telling investigators that the "conversation between the suspect and [victim] was a debate over their ideas about pro-life and pro-choice viewpoints." Crosbys attorney Terrell Roberts read a statement in court on behalf his client, saying that the incident demonstrated a "gross disregard for the law and human decency.""We were in no position to defend ourselves," Crosby wrote, according to The Baltimore Banner. "To treat elderly folks with that kind of brutality is shocking."0 Reacties 0 aandelen 20 Views 0 voorbeeld

Sobbing, crying his heart out, withering away, tortured, starved to death, shouting for help, and you cant do anything. Absolutely nothing.How would you feel? What would you do? How could you sleep?I can tell you firsthand, the feeling is unbearable. It drives you crazy. It drives you mad. That fierce sense of helplessness, witnessing this horror unfold before your eyes, and yet theres nothing you can do.My son is a hostage. His name is Rom Braslavski. He is 22 years old, and as I write these words, he has been held captive by Islamic Jihad in Gaza for 670 days. Rom is in hell. I am a father in hell.FREED AMERICAN-ISRAELI HOSTAGE DETAILS STARVATION AND ABUSE BY HAMAS AS FAMILIES PUSH TRUMP FOR DEALOn October 7, 2023, the darkest day in Israels history, Rom was working as a security guard at the Nova music festival. When the terrorists attacked, Rom could have fled to save himself. Instead, he chose to stay. He stayed to treat the wounded, evacuate the injured, shelter the terrified, and did his best to somehow preserve dignity amid chaos.Last Thursday, Islamic Jihad released a horrifying propaganda video. What I saw shattered me: my sonon the verge of death, visibly suffering, crying and begging for his life. I didnt recognize him. He was so weak, so emaciated. His voice was frail, and his eyes were hollow and empty as if he was about to give up. I know its hard to believe, but this was the first time I ever saw my son cry. Really cry.Four months ago, Islamic Jihad released another video of Rom. He looked terrible even then but at least there was still something in his eyes. A glimmer of hope. A belief that he might still get out. In this latest harrowing footage, that spark is gone. His eyes are turned off. He looks like he is waiting for death. This is not a metaphor. Its a father watching his child die in real time.CLICK HERE FOR MORE FOX NEWS OPINIONRom was always strong - the kind of kid who made people feel safe. Now, he is barely recognizable, a victim of psychological and physical torture. This is not the son I raised. This is a boy who has been broken.Those terrorists who hold my son and so many others claim they give hostages the same food their own fighters receive. But in the video, you can clearly see the captors are well fed, and they are deliberately starving my boy. This hunger is on purpose you can see that.Mr. President Trump, I turn to you - not as a diplomat or a politician, but as a father desperate for action.You know what it means to protect your family. Youve shown strength where others waver. You have spoken of truth without compromise. You understand that moral clarity comes above all. You know what evil looks like and youve never hesitated to name it. I ask you:Use your power, your influence, and your leadership to demand the immediate release of all 50 hostages still held in Gaza.SIGN UP FOR ANTISEMITISM EXPOSED NEWSLETTERThis is not only an Israeli tragedy it is a global test of conscience. What Hamas did on October7 through mass murder, rape and abduction was more than terror it was an assault on civilization itself.President Trump, my son does not have time. Every day that nothing changes is another day he may not survive. We are out of time. We need to get him food and medical attention, and we need to get him out of hell.We need to get them all out of hell. One deal. No phases. No conditions. No silence.Please dont let the light in Roms eyes go out forever.0 Reacties 0 aandelen 7 Views 0 voorbeeld

WWW.FOXNEWS.COMTrump to host Armenia, Azerbaijan leaders ahead of peace pledge as White House eyes Nobel Peace PrizePresident Donald Trump will host the leaders of Armenia and Azerbaijan on Friday as he looks to secure one more peace deal under his belt following fighting that reignited in 2020."I look forward to hosting the President of Azerbaijan, Ilham Aliyev, and the Prime Minister of Armenia, Nikol Pashinyan, at the White House tomorrow for a Historic Peace Summit," Trump said in a Thursday night social media post."President Aliyev AND Prime Minister Pashinyan will join me at the White House for an official Peace Signing Ceremony," he added. "The United States will also sign Bilateral Agreements with both Countries to pursue Economic opportunities together, so we can fully unlock the potential of the South Caucasus Region."ARMENIA AND AZERBAIJAN MOVE TOWARD NORMALIZED RELATIONS AS THE FIRST BORDER MARKER IS PLACEDDespite the president's comments, experts familiar with the ongoing negotiations have told Fox News Digital that the leaders are not expected to sign a formalized peace agreement, but rather a letter of intent following more than a year of negotiations.However, even as an official peace agreement is not expected to be signed, the meeting is still viewed as a major win for not only regional stability, but for Trump as well."I believe they've had a significant position in this whole process," Matias Perttula, director of Save Armenia, told Fox News Digital. "We just returned fromArmeniaover the last week [where] we had several government meetings, including with the national security advisor, the president ofArmeniaand a couple other ministries, and from what we can tell the engagement from the Trump administration has been a lot more robust than the Biden administration."Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev and Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan are each expected to meet with Trump prior to signing a pledge for peace between the two nations, which have been embroiled in, at times, brutal conflict since the late 1980s.The conflict largely centered around the status of the Nagorno-Karabakhregion, a mountainous area in Azerbaijan with a majority-Armenian population, but which declared independence in 1991.While Armenia, along with the international community, never formally recognized the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic as an independent state, it became its chief financial and military backer.The territory assumed a de facto role in Armenia until Azerbaijani forces overwhelmed the republic in a swift campaign in September 2023, prompting mass evacuations of ethnic Armenians before it was then dissolved on Jan. 1, 2024.This region is expected to remain a major issue in the ongoing negotiations.ARMENIA'S PRIME MINISTER URGES SWIFT BORDER AGREEMENT TO AVOID CONFLICT WITH AZERBAIJANThough both nations announced in March that they had reached a consensus on finalizing a peace deal, several factors surrounding the mountainous area have prevented a finalized agreement from being reached, as witnessed in the July meeting between the leaders when they met in the UAE but failed to find a resolution.Chief among Azerbaijans demands is that Armenia should amend its constitution and remove all references to the Nagorno-Karabakh territory. Though this demand is not a simple request that just Pashinyan can agree to as it would require a national referendum."There's no legal consequence whatsoever," Perttula told Fox News Digital, explaining that both Armenian and American legal experts have refuted the demand as inconsequential, and therefore should not serve as a precursor to reaching a formalized peace deal."There needs to be a real consideration for the right of return for the 120,000Armenian Christians that were forced off the lands of Nagorno-Karabakh that has been their ancestral homeland for centuries," Perttula added. "I think that needs to be a key point in terms of formalizing this whole peace agreement.""We want peace at the end of the day," he added. "We want peace and normalization."NETANYAHU SURPRISES TRUMP WITH FORMAL NOBEL PEACE PRIZE NOMINATION DURING HISTORIC WHITE HOUSE MEETINGTrump, while on the campaign trail, highlighted the Armenia-Azerbaijan conflict and accused then-Vice President Kamala Harris of doing "NOTHING as 120,000 Armenian Christians were horrifically persecuted and forcibly displaced."Trump said he would "work to stop the violence and ethnic cleansing, and we will restore PEACE between Armenia and Azerbaijan."Trump has repeatedly championed his push to end conflict across the globe and in June celebrated a peace agreement that the U.S. helped broker between the Democratic Republic of Congo and Rwanda with an Oval Office signing."In a few short months, weve now achieved peace between India and Pakistan, India and Iran, and the DRC and Rwanda, and a couple of others, also,"Trump said during the event.The president who has been nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, as well as leaders from Pakistan and Cambodia has on several occasions argued his credentials should be recognized under the international award that has been granted to four other U.S. presidents.In a February meeting with Netanyahu, Trump said, "They will never give me a Nobel Peace Prize. Its too bad. I deserve it, but they will never give it to me."The White House last week lobbied for the president to win the award come December when White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said, "Its well past time that President Trump was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize."0 Reacties 0 aandelen 7 Views 0 voorbeeld

WWW.FOXNEWS.COMJohn Cena's hair transplant changed his life years after he was 'run out' of HollywoodBefore John Cena was a movie star, he was a WWE star, but his rise to movie stardom wasn't easy."I was run out of the movie business in 2009 for doing bad movies where I wasnt present," Cena, 48, told People magazine. "I thought that just because I wore a golden leather belt on Monday and Friday, theyd come see whatever Im doing.
