President-elect Trump earlier landed in Paris on his first international trip since his election win, joined later by Zelensky, with both men preparing for a day of intense diplomacy before attending the reopening ceremony from 1800 GMT for the Notre Dame cathedral restored after the 2019 fire. With some 40 heads of state and government expected in the French capital, the event provides a unique chance for leaders to brush shoulders with Trump before the tycoon turned politician takes office in January. Trump arrived at Orly airport in the south of Paris aboard a private plane just before 0700 GMT, said an airport source, asking not to be named. He is to hold talks at the Elysee Palace with President Macron at 1500 GMT. Zelensky, who is due to meet Macron an hour later at 1600 GMT, may also meet Trump, a Ukrainian official said on Friday. Such a meeting would be of huge importance given the fears in Kyiv that Trump, who once boasted he could end Russia’s war on Ukraine in 24 hours, may urge concessions to Moscow. Trump has scoffed at the billions of dollars in US military assistance to Ukraine and has spoken of forcing a quick settlement. No trilateral meeting is however awaited between Trump, Macron and Zelensky. Macron invited both Trump and outgoing President Joe Biden. Trump accepted the invite, while the current administration will be represented by First Lady Jill Biden. European allies have largely enjoyed a close working relationship with Biden on the crisis in the Middle East but Trump is likely to distance himself and ally the United States even more closely with Israel. Macron will be basking in his role as facilitator of the day of frenetic diplomacy at a time of domestic crisis after his prime minister was ousted in a no-confidence vote this week and is only staying on as a caretaker. Trump posted on his Truth Social page that Macron had “done a wonderful job ensuring that Notre Dame has been restored to its full level of glory, and even more so. It will be a very special day for all!” For Macron, the invitation to Trump marks a sense of deja vu as he tries to woo an impulsive US president with whom he has had sharp disagreements. Macron welcomed Trump in 2017, after his first election, with the glamour of dinner at the Eiffel Tower and the pomp of watching a Bastille Day military parade down the Champs-Elysees - which Trump later said he wanted to emulate in Washington. Trump’s relationship with Macron gradually soured, albeit not as quickly as it did with a number of other leaders, such as then German chancellor Angela Merkel. In 2019, Trump said the French leader was “very, very nasty” and lashed out at his economic record after Macron criticized the US level of commitment to the NATO alliance. When Trump won again a month ago, Macron was one of the first world leaders to speak to Trump by telephone to congratulate him. European Commission president Ursula von der Leyen has decided not to make the trip, after her presence was initially announced by Brussels. She is in the throes of a major spat with Macron after going to Montevideo on Friday to announce the conclusion of a free trade agreement between the EU and four South American countries, which is opposed by France and some other European countries. UK’s Prince William, the elder son of King Charles III and heir to the throne will hold meetings with Trump and Jill Biden while in Paris for the Saturday reopening of Notre Dame, his office said. The last time William met Trump was in 2019, when the then-US president was on a state visit to the UK. - AFP

US announces nearly $1 bn in new military aid for Ukraine

Kansas City Chiefs back to winning ways against Carolina PanthersElder statesman, Edwin Clark has written a letter to the Chief Justice of Nigeria (CJN), Justice Kudirat Kekere-Ekun, lauding her efforts to reform the judiciary while revisiting the controversial removal of Justice Walter Onnoghen as Chief Justice of Nigeria by former President Muhammadu Buhari in 2019. In the letter made available to the media in Abuja on Sunday, Clark described the removal as a gross injustice and a blot on Nigeria’s democratic record. Clark commended Justice Kekere-Ekun’s commitment to cleaning up the judiciary, emphasising the importance of an efficient and incorruptible judicial system. “Without an efficient and incorruptible judiciary, Nigeria will end up as a failed country,” he wrote, expressing the hope that ongoing reforms would restore public confidence in the judiciary. In revisiting the events surrounding Justice Onnoghen’s ousting, the foremost South-South leader described it as an orchestrated humiliation carried out by Buhari and his then-Attorney General, Abubakar Malami. He characterised the suspension of Onnoghen and the subsequent appointment of Justice Ibrahim Tanko Mohammed as Acting CJN as “callous, unjust, and barbaric.” The elder statesman argued that Onnoghen was unfairly targeted to ensure the judiciary aligned with Buhari’s political ambitions, particularly during the 2019 presidential election. He recounted how Onnoghen’s removal circumvented due process, as the National Judicial Council (NJC) was not consulted, and alleged that judicial tribunals established under Justice Tanko Mohammed were manipulated to favour Buhari’s re-election. Clark did not mince words in condemning the broader culture of impunity under Buhari’s administration, likening it to practices in autocratic regimes. He called for accountability, urging the administration of President Bola Tinubu to ensure that no individual or officeholder is above the law. “Sacred cows must not exist in Nigeria, no matter whose ox is gored,” Clark asserted. He criticised the tendency of former presidents to avoid scrutiny despite allegations of corruption, noting, “Today in Nigeria, we have corrupt presidents accusing their successors of corruption without reflecting on their own actions in office.” Clark also highlighted the irony in Onnoghen’s case, recalling how the former CJN had been part of the Supreme Court panel whose ruling favoured Buhari in the 2011 presidential election dispute. He suggested that Onnoghen’s principled stance and independence posed a threat to Buhari’s second-term bid, making his removal a calculated move. Clark made a broader call for reform and justice, urging the judiciary and the Tinubu administration to address past injustices to strengthen democracy and the rule of law. He also hinted at the possibility of legal redress, stating that Buhari’s actions should be brought to trial to set a precedent for accountability.

NBA memo to players urges increased vigilance regarding home security following break-ins MIAMI (AP) — The NBA is urging its players to take additional precautions to secure their homes following reports of recent high-profile burglaries of dwellings owned by Milwaukee Bucks forward Bobby Portis and Kansas City Chiefs teammates Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce. In a memo sent to team officials, a copy of which was obtained by The Associated Press, the NBA revealed that the FBI has connected some burglaries to “transnational South American Theft Groups” that are “reportedly well-organized, sophisticated rings that incorporate advanced techniques and technologies, including pre-surveillance, drones, and signal jamming devices.” Ancient meets modern as a new subway in Greece showcases archaeological treasures THESSALONIKI, Greece (AP) — Thessaloniki, Greece’s second-largest city, is opening a new subway system, blending ancient archaeological treasures with modern transit technology like driverless trains and platform screen doors.

Conor McGregor must pay $250K to woman who says he raped her, civil jury rules LONDON (AP) — A civil jury in Ireland has awarded more than $250,000 to a woman who says she was raped by mixed martial arts fighter Conor McGregor in a Dublin hotel penthouse after a night of heavy partying. The jury on Friday awarded Nikita Hand in her lawsuit that claimed McGregor “brutally raped and battered” her in 2018. The lawsuit says the assault left her heavily bruised and suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder. McGregor testified that he never forced her to do anything and that Hand fabricated her allegations after the two had consensual sex. McGregor says he will appeal the verdict. At least 19 people are sick in Minnesota from ground beef tied to E. coli recall U.S. health officials say at least 19 people in Minnesota have been sickened by E. coli poisoning tied to a national recall of more than 167,000 pounds of potentially tainted ground beef. Detroit-based Wolverine Packing Co. recalled the meat sent to restaurants nationwide. Minnesota state agriculture officials reported multiple illnesses and found that a sample of the product tested positive for E. coli, which can cause life-threatening infections. No illnesses have been reported outside of Minnesota. Symptoms of E. coli poisoning include fever, vomiting, diarrhea and signs of dehydration. Actor Jonathan Majors’ ex-girlfriend drops assault and defamation lawsuit against once-rising star NEW YORK (AP) — Jonathan Majors’ ex-girlfriend has dropped her assault and defamation lawsuit against the once-rising Hollywood star after reaching a settlement. Lawyers for Majors and Grace Jabbari agreed to dismiss the case with prejudice Thursday. Jabbari is a British dancer who had accused Majors of subjecting her to escalating incidents of physical and verbal abuse during their relationship. Representatives for Majors didn’t respond to emails seeking comment Friday. Jabbari’s lawyer said the suit was “favorably settled” and her client is moving on with “her head held high.” Majors was convicted of misdemeanor assault and harassment last December and sentenced to a yearlong counseling program.

Looking back, Rajinikanth recalls being overwhelmed by advice over his attempt to enter politicsCORVALLIS – Time to review Oregon State’s 41-38 win over Washington State from Saturday at Reser Stadium with eight takeaways: 1. The first question we have Where does Oregon State hang the Pac-12 championship banner in Reser Stadium? Does the school paint a sign on one of the end zone walls? Or perhaps a “kick me” size sign pinned to the back of Benny Beaver? 2. Best win of the season? Some on social media have rated the Beavers’ win over Washington State as its best performance of the season. Better than the historic shutout at San Diego State? The overtime win over Colorado State? Yeah, probably. None of those teams have eight wins like Washington State. None of those teams were in the College Football Playoff chase at some point in November like WSU. None of those teams had an offense statistically rated among the country’s top 10 like the Cougars. Oregon State’s offense seemed left for dead after its no-show a week ago at Air Force. But here were the Beavers, producing 484 yards and five touchdowns against Washington State. The offense, which had struggled in the red zone the past three weeks, was 4-for-4, all touchdowns. Quarterback John Mateer had a day with 250 passing yards, 75 rushing yards and a combined four touchdowns. But no one else on the Cougars went off. WSU had 384 yards offense, 77 under its season average. The OSU defense also chipped in with a timely takeaway inside the final two minutes that led to the game-winning field goal. It had six tackles for loss, the second highest total of the season. Special teams contributed two field goals, including the fourth longest in school history that won the game. Yeah, probably? No, definitely.

Oregon State football 2024 season schedule, scores Sign up for The Beavers Beat newsletter 3. Not much separates WSU and OSU Washington State came into the game as 12-point favorite, an 8-2 record and a bowl berth long ago sewed up. While Oregon State was reeling with a five-game losing streak and coming off its first shutout loss in nine years. Yet what happened Saturday night we should have seen coming. Washington State has been living on the edge all season, and it’s just now coming back to bite the Cougars. WSU has been remarkably clutch in one-score games, as it pulled out last second wins over Washington, San Jose State, Fresno State and San Diego State. The Cougars have finally come back to the middle the past two weeks, losing close games at New Mexico and OSU. The Beavers, meanwhile, were probably due to pull one out. They lost narrowly to Nevada, UNLV and San Jose State, while outlasting Colorado State. 4. Nothing to lose That seemed to be Trent Bray’s mindset. Anything close on fourth down, and Oregon State was going for it. Worked, too, as the Beavers were 4-of-5 on fourth down. Converting fourth down plays came on drives that produced three touchdowns and a field goal. The biggest fourth down gamble was the last one. The game was tied at 38-38, one minute remaining and the Beavers faced with fourth-and-six at the WSU 45. This wasn’t within Ben Gulbranson sneak range, or a short run by Anthony Hankerson. Also, misfire, and Washington State is suddenly within 20 yards of field goal range to win the game. Hardly a slam dunk decision for Bray. Punting was on the table. “We went back and forth, but the final decision was, you give them the ball back with a minute and two timeouts. That’s an eternity. We’re going to go win this thing,” Bray said. It paid off, as Ben Gulbranson threw for seven yards to Trent Walker for a first down. Four plays later, Everett Hayes kicked a 55-yard field goal for the go-ahead score. The 4-of-5 conversions on fourth down matched a season high. The Beavers are 21 of 36 on fourth down this season. 5. Suddenly, a bowl berth isn’t that far fetched Oregon State won a game as an 11-point underdog against Washington State. Who’s to say the Beavers can’t march into Boise State and keep it going Friday and achieve bowl eligibility? I know, I know, you’re saying it’s impossible. But that was the tone Saturday morning on social media, as everyone but Pat McAfee was not only picking OSU to lose to Washington State, but get its doors blown off. Winning at Boise State will be difficult. But one big factor will be worth watching this week: the health of running back Ashton Jeanty. The Boise State standout suffered a lower leg injury during the second half of Saturday’s 17-13 win at Wyoming. Jeanty eventually returned to the game after he was sidelined for a few series. But who knows if Jeanty was staving off pain with adrenaline or not. It’s the days after a such an injury that can be the worst. Jeanty or not, beating the Broncos in Boise is a tough ask. Oregon State is 1-3 at Albertsons Stadium. The Beavers have lost the last three road games to Boise State by margins of 19, 28 and 13 points. 6. What if this becomes a two-game winning streak? The Beavers now have a pulse, one that was revived Saturday after the debacle eight days ago at Air Force. One win, and Oregon State is headed to a bowl somewhere. It might be played in Shreveport or Tampa or Fort Worth, but it’s a bowl. Are we predicting an Oregon State win at Boise State? No, we are not. But it will not be surprising if the Beavers give the Broncos all they can handle. There’s also the matter of Boise State’s College Football Playoff run. Expectations are heavy, and they’re starting to weigh on the Broncos. Boise State is no longer on the winning end of blowouts. The Broncos were all out to beat Nevada and Wyoming, and even their 42-21 win over San Jose State on November 16 was dressed up with two touchdowns during the final two minutes. 7. Dual quarterbacks As is becoming a theme of late, Oregon State loves tinkering with its quarterback rotation. Saturday, the Beavers started Gulbranson , but liberally sprinkled in the use of Gabarri Johnson. The redshirt freshman took 12 of the team’s 83 offensive snaps, running six times for 47 yards and a touchdown. Johnson also completed one pass for 20 yards. Bray praised offensive coordinator Ryan Gunderson’s game plan, saying “I thought what we did with Gabarri and how we used his legs helped us move the ball. I think they did a good job of narrowing it down. Less is more. That’s what we found today.” 8. Senior Day stars, but youngsters also have a game On a day when 19 Oregon State players were honored on Senior Day, many played a starring role. Gulbranson passed for a career-high 294 yards and two touchdowns. Cornerback Jaden Robinson had the fumble recovery that led to Hayes’ game-winning kick. Tight end Jermaine Terry II caught five passes for 92 yards and a touchdown play of 43 yards. Hayes kicks field goals of 47 and 55 yards. Semisi Saluni had a sack, just OSU’s second in four games. But newcomers to the lineup also made an impact. Johnson, Darrius Clemons and Salahadin Allah scored their first touchdowns as Beavers. Safety Jaheim Patterson had his best game in an OSU uniform with four tackles, one for a loss. Andy Alfieri, recently moved to defense from tight end, had a team-high two tackles for loss. Freshman cornerback Exodus Ayers forced the fumble that Robinson recovered. -- Nick Daschel can be reached at 360-607-4824, ndaschel@oregonian.com or @nickdaschel . Our journalism needs your support.

The United States on Saturday announced a new $988 million security assistance package for Ukraine as Washington races to provide aid to Kyiv before President-elect Donald Trump takes office. Trump's November election victory has cast doubt on the future of American aid for Ukraine, providing a limited window for billions of dollars in already authorized assistance to be disbursed before he is sworn in next month. The package features drones, ammunition for precision HIMARS rocket launchers, and equipment and spare parts for artillery systems, tanks and armored vehicles, the Pentagon said in a statement. Trump met in Paris earlier Saturday with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, who said any resolution of the war with Russia should be a "just" settlement that includes "strong security guarantees for Ukraine." The meeting was of huge importance to Zelensky, given fears in Kyiv that Trump may urge Ukraine to make concessions to Moscow. The latest aid will be funded via the Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative, under which military equipment is procured from the defense industry or partners rather than drawn from American stocks, meaning it will not immediately arrive on the battlefield. It follows a $725 million package announced on Monday that included a second tranche of landmines as well as anti-air and anti-armor weapons. The outgoing administration of President Joe Biden is working to get as much aid as possible to Ukraine before Trump -- who has repeatedly criticized US assistance for Kyiv and claimed he could secure a ceasefire within hours -- takes over. Trump's comments have triggered fears in Kyiv and Europe about the future of US aid, and Ukraine's ability to withstand Russian attacks in the absence of further American support. "Our job has been to try and put Ukraine in the strongest possible position on the battlefield so that it is in the strongest possible position at the negotiating table," National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan said Saturday. In the closing weeks of Biden's term, the goal is "a massive surge of assistance and to up the economic pressure on Russia," he said. US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin on Saturday warned that failure to continue opposing Russia's actions would have dire consequences. "We can continue to stand up to the Kremlin. Or we can let (Russian President Vladimir) Putin have his way -- and condemn our children and grandchildren to live in a world of chaos and conflict," said Austin, who like Sullivan was speaking at the Reagan National Defense Forum in California. "This administration has made its choice. And so has a bipartisan coalition in Congress. The next administration must make its own choice." The defense chief also emphasized the importance of US allies and partners in his remarks -- a contrast to Trump's go-it-alone "America first" world view. "Here is the stark military fact: our allies and partners are huge force multipliers," Austin said. "Ultimately, America is weaker when it stands alone. And America is smaller when it stands apart," he said. "There is no such thing as a safe retreat from today's interwoven world." The United States has spearheaded the push for international support for Ukraine, quickly forging a coalition to back Kyiv after Russia launched its full-scale invasion in 2022 and coordinating aid from dozens of countries. Ukraine's international supporters have since then provided tens of billions of dollars in weapons, ammunition, training and other security aid that has been key to helping Kyiv resist Russian forces. wd/mlm/acb
