He added that Russia was weaponizing essentials like food and energy “not only against our country, but against all of yours as well.” The remarks come at a perilous moment for Ukraine. War fatigue appears to be growing both in the U.S. and elsewhere, and House Republicans in Washington have held up further military aid.

The discussions are central to the White House’s effort to get Saudi Arabia to normalize relations with Israel. The structure of the treaty would be modeled after the military pacts that the U.S. has with Japan and South Korea, which are considered the strongest among non-NATO allies, U.S. officials said. Any agreement, however, is likely to face strong objections in Congress, where lawmakers in both parties see the Saudis as unreliable partners who care little about U.S. interests or human rights. ~/AAAAAQA~/RgRm7J-EP0TuaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMy8wOS8xOS93b3JsZC9jYW5hZGEvdHJ1ZGVhdS1pbmRpYS1jYW5hZGEtYXNzYXNzaW5hdGlvbi5odG1sP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTU3JmVtYz1lZGl0X25lXzIwMjMwOTE5Jmluc3RhbmNlX2lkPTEwMzE1MyZubD10aGUtZXZlbmluZyZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9MTQ1MTcyJnRlPTEmdXNlcl9pZD1hYTQ5MWVmN2YxZDk2NGU0OTc5ZmI3ODRlNzRlMDFkN1cDbnl0Qgpk-oQaCmUXXjU6Uht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAM~ Prime Minister Justin Trudeau in Ottawa, today.Sean Kilpatrick/The Canadian Press, via Associated Press Tensions between Canada and India escalate over killing Since Canada’s prime minister, Justin Trudeau, accused India yesterday of being involved in the killing of a Canadian citizen in June, both sides have been in an all-out diplomatic war.

That is double what Disney has spent on parks and cruises over the past decade, during which it opened the Shanghai Disney Resort, sharply increased its cruise line capacity and added rides based on intellectual properties like “Star Wars,” “Guardians of the Galaxy” and “Avatar” to its domestic parks. The company did not say how it planned to spend the money, but the chairman of the parks division gave hints, noting that Disney movies like “Coco,” “Zootopia,” “Encanto,” “Black Panther” and others had not yet been incorporated into the company’s parks in meaningful ways. ~/AAAAAQA~/RgRm7J-EP0TkaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vaW50ZXJhY3RpdmUvMjAyMy9kaW5pbmcvYmVzdC1yZXN0YXVyYW50cy1hbWVyaWNhLmh0bWw_Y2FtcGFpZ25faWQ9NTcmZW1jPWVkaXRfbmVfMjAyMzA5MTkmaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9MTAzMTUzJm5sPXRoZS1ldmVuaW5nJnJlZ2lfaWQ9Nzc2NzQ5NTImc2VnbWVudF9pZD0xNDUxNzImdGU9MSZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3VwNueXRCCmT6hBoKZRdeNTpSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAw~~ Margaret Albaugh for The New York Times America’s 50 most exciting restaurants For our third annual New York Times Restaurant List, my colleagues scoured the nation, dining at hundreds of different locations, in search of their favorites.

Wyeth, one of the premier American illustrators of the 20th century, who is known for bringing to life classic stories like “Treasure Island,” “Robin Hood” and “Robinson Crusoe.” Once she realized what she had, the woman decided to put it up for auction.
