The conflict over whether it should be an independent nation or a facet of greater Russia “goes back hundreds of years,” Cohen said. “It’s not going to end with the current conflict. “It’s similar to the relationship between Quebec and Canada.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The world’s largest aircraft carrier, the USS Gerald R. Ford, broke the U.S. record Wednesday for the longest post-Vietnam War deployment, a nearly 10-month span that saw it take part in both the military raid in Venezuela and the Iran war. The ship’s 295th day at sea surpassed the previous longest deployment by an aircraft carrier in the past 50 years, when the USS Abraham Lincoln was sent out for 294 days in 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic, according to data compiled by U.S. Naval Institute News, a news outlet run by the U.S. Naval Institute, a
