U.S. Reaches Nuclear Deal With Armenia As Vance Pushes Peace Dividend

Armenia and the United States agreed on Monday to cooperate in the civil nuclear sector as Washington sought to bolster ties with a former close ally of Russia, months after Washington brokered a peace agreement in the South Caucasus. A statement on the nuclear sector deal was signed by Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan and U.S. Vice President JD Vance, who is on a two-day visit to the country. The two said they had completed negotiations on what is known as a 123 Agreement, which allows the U.S. to legally license nuclear technology and equipment to other countries. The agreement will allow up to $5 billion in initial U.S. exports to Armenia, plus an additional $4 billion in longer-term fuel and maintenance contracts, Vance said. "This agreement will open a new chapter in the deepening energy partnership between Armenia and the United States," Pashinyan said at a joint press conference with Vance. Long heavily dependent on Russia and Iran for its energy supplies, Armenia is now reviewing proposals from U.S., Russian, Chinese, French and South Korean companies to construct a new nuclear reactor to replace its sole, ageing Russian-built nuclear power plant, Metsamor. No choice has yet been made, but Monday's announcement paves the way for an American project to be selected. That would deal a blow to Russia, which traditionally has viewed the South Caucasus as its sphere of influence but whose clout there has diminished as a result of its invasion of Ukraine. "Considering Armenia's multiplicity of dependencies on Russia, it is a political priority to diversify partners when it comes to nuclear cooperation," said Narek Sukiasyan, a political scientist in Yerevan. "The United States seems to be the preference now." Vance's visit comes just six months after the Armenian and Azerbaijani leaders signed an agreement at the White House seen as the first step towards peace after nearly 40 years of war. Vance was also seeking to advance the "Trump Route for International Peace and Prosperity (TRIPP)", a proposed 43-kilometre (27-mile) corridor that would run across southern Armenia and give Azerbaijan a direct route to its exclave of Nakhchivan and in turn to Turkey, Baku's close ally. The route would better connect Asia to Europe while - crucially for Washington - bypassing Russia and Iran at a time when Western countries are keen on diversifying energy and trade routes away from Russia due to the Ukraine conflict. The TRIPP corridor, which envisages new or updated rail infrastructure, oil and gas pipelines and fibre-optic cables, would transform the South Caucasus, a region riven by closed borders and longstanding ethnic conflicts. "We're not just making peace for Armenia," Vance said. "We're also creating real prosperity for Armenia and the United States together." He is set to visit Azerbaijan on Wednesday and Thursday, according to the White House.

U.S. Forces Board Venezuela-Linked Oil Tanker In Indian Ocean Without Incident

U.S. military forces boarded a crude oil tanker in the Indian Ocean after pursuing it from the Caribbean, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said on Monday, accusing the vessel of breaching Washington's blockade on sanctioned vessels traveling to or from Venezuela. "Overnight, U.S. military forces conducted a right-of-visit, maritime interdiction and boarding on the Aquila II without incident " Hegseth wrote in a post on X. "It ran, and we followed." After capturing Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro in a military raid last month in Caracas, the U.S. has escalated its blockade on vessels that are under sanctions and going to and from the South American country, a member of the OPEC oil producers group. Suezmax tanker Aquila II departed from Venezuelan waters in early January as part of a flotilla of vessels. It was carrying about 700,000 barrels of Venezuelan heavy crude bound for China, according to schedules from state company PDVSA. Most tankers in the flotilla have returned to Venezuela or have been seized by the U.S. Hegseth said the Aquila II was operating in defiance of the U.S. "quarantine of sanctioned vessels in the Caribbean." "The Department of War tracked and hunted this vessel from the Caribbean to the Indian Ocean. ..You will run out of fuel long before you will outrun us," he wrote. It was unclear where the Aquila II was registered, according to shipping databases.

Ghislaine Maxwell pleads the Fifth Amendment at House deposition

House lawmakers tried to interview Ghislaine Maxwell, but the former girlfriend and confidant of Jeffrey Epstein invoked her Fifth Amendment rights to avoid answering questions that would be incriminating. Maxwell was to be questioned Monday during a video call to the federal prison camp in Texas where she’s serving a 20-year sentence for sex trafficking. An attorney for Maxwell also told lawmakers that if President Donald Trump ended her prison sentence, she would be willing to testify that neither Trump nor former President Bill Clinton were culpable for wrongdoing in their relationships with Epstein, according to both Democratic and Republican lawmakers who exited the closed-door meeting.

Democrats Once Championed Border Security as Common Sense—Don't Believe It? Watch!

Democrats once championed secure borders, strict law enforcement, and no amnesty as plain common sense—until they flipped the script, eyeing open borders for endless votes and ironclad control. Nothing changed but their power hunger, as proven in this damning video montage of Obama, Clinton, Schumer, Sanders, and others demanding tough immigration measures.

Anti-ICE protesters rally in Milan at Olympics

Hundreds of protesters chanted slogans, blew whistles and set off flares at a rally on Friday to oppose the presence in Italy of U.S. immigration agents and the closure of streets ahead of the Milano Cortina Winter Games' opening ceremony. The reported presence of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officials to protect Americans around the Olympics has galvanized protests given their front-line role in U.S. President Donald Trump's aggressive deportation push at home. "ICE OUT" and "ICE should be in my drinks not my city" read some of the banners held by the student-led demonstrators. Blowing plastic whistles, which have become a symbol of anti-ICE rallies in the U.S., the demonstrators in Milan also urged visiting U.S. Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio to go home. "I thought that this was a good opportunity to show that the rest of the world is not okay with what's happening in Minnesota," said Katie Legare, a protester from Minnesota currently studying in Europe, in reference to ICE agents' killing of two U.S. citizens in her home city. "It's not okay to just acquiesce and go with the status quo. But to say there's something wrong that's happening and to speak out." Italy's government has said the controversy is unfounded, with ICE personnel not on the streets during the Olympics and only operatives from its Homeland Security Investigations in Italy working out of U.S. diplomatic missions. The U.S. Olympic and Paralympic Committee has also said no agents from ICE were providing security for Team USA. MORE PROTESTS With the opening ceremony due on Friday evening, Italian authorities ordered schools in central Milan to remain shut and blocked access to some areas to bolster security and ease traffic disruptions. In the afternoon, a separate demonstration was held in a square near the San Siro stadium, where the opening ceremony will take place. A few hundred people - including a committee of public-housing tenants protesting against the high cost of living, and the Unsustainable Olympics Committee, which accuses the government of funneling public funds rather than supporting lower-income residents - marched against what they see as the social and economic impact of the Games. Protesters say the Olympics are a waste of money and resources while housing prices are unaffordable and public meeting places scarce. Some demonstrators also chanted slogans criticizing Israel and expressing support for Palestinians. On Thursday, environmental group Greenpeace staged a protest in front of Milan's cathedral, protesting the role of Italian oil major Eni as a sponsor of the Games. Later on Friday a torchlit march organized by a protest movement against the Games is expected in an area close to the site of the opening ceremony.
