(CNN) — El expresidente Donald Trump demandó a Michael Cohen por US$ 500 millones en concepto de daños y perjuicios por el supuesto incumplimiento de su contrato como exabogado personal de Trump.La demanda, presentada en un tribunal federal de Florida este miércoles, acusa a Cohen de difundir información falsa sobre Trump e incumplir sus obligaciones contractuales con el expresidente en las declaraciones públicas de Cohen, los libros publicados, las series de podcasts y otras apariciones en los medios.Cohen, el otrora “arreglador [de problemas]” de Trump, volvió a entrar recientemente en el centro de atención nacional después de que Trump se declarara inocente la semana pasada de 34 cargos de falsificación de registros comerciales a raíz de una investigación sobre supuestos pagos de dinero por silencio realizados a la estrella de cine para adultos Stormy Daniels. Los pagos fueron coordinados por Cohen en los días previos a las elecciones de 2016, y la cooperación d...Ukraine’s GDP crashed by 29.1 percent in year of Russian invasion

Ukraine’s economy plummeted in the year that Russia started its war in Ukraine, with the gross domestic product (GDP) falling by 29.1 percent in 2022, data from the state statistics service published late on Wednesday shows.Ukraine’s export-led economy has been battered by the consequences of Moscow’s full-scale invasion in February 2022, with the highly restricted access to Black Sea ports hindering crucial metal and grain shipments and the infrastructure industry dramatically weakened.In peacetime, Ukraine’s farmers supplied a tenth of the wheat and half the sunflower oil sold on world markets. Its shipments of grains and oilseeds through the Black Sea fell to zero last March, from 5.7 million metric tons in the previous month.The Ukrainian government has predicted a slightly harder drop of 30 percent drop in earlier forecasts, with risks and uncertainties remaining high. It expects the economy to grow by 1 percent this year, expecting the situation in the transp...Ukraine’s Naftogaz declares victory over Russia in $5B court battle

A court in The Hague has ordered Russia to pay $5 billion in compensation for seizing assets from Ukraine’s state energy firm following Moscow’s 2014 illegal annexation of Crimea.In a statement issued Thursday, Kyiv’s Naftogaz group announced that the Permanent Court of Arbitration had ruled in the company’s favor in the case the day before.“Despite Russia’s efforts to obstruct justice, the Arbitration Tribunal obliged the Russian Federation to compensate Naftogaz for losses in the amount of $5 billion,” the statement reads, confirming the compensation relates to “the consequences of Russia’s confiscation of our assets in Crimea in 2014.”Moscow had previously threatened to levy sanctions against Naftogaz if the Ukrainian firm pursued the case in court, and has not yet responded to the decision. However, given Russia has previously refused to comply with other international court decisions affecting Naftogaz, securing restitution may prove challenging.

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — A federal appeals court preserved access to the abortion pill mifepristone for now but reduced the period of pregnancy when the drug can be used and said it could not be dispensed by mail.The ruling late Wednesday temporarily narrowed a decision by a lower court judge in Texas that had completely blocked the Food and Drug Administration’s approval of the nation’s most commonly used method of abortion. The Texas order unsettled abortion providers less than a year after the reversal of Roe v. Wade already dramatically curtailed abortion access.The case may now be headed to the U.S. Supreme Court.Mifepristone was approved for use by the FDA more than two decades ago and is used in combination with a second drug, misoprostol.In a far-reaching ruling last week, a federal judge blocked the FDA’s approval of the pill following a lawsuit by the drug’s opponents. There is virtually no precedent for a lone judge overturning the regulato...Mother and toddler rushed to hospital after fire at Danvers apartment building

A mother and her young child were rushed to a hospital after a fire at an apartment building in Danvers Wednesday. The town’s fire chief told 7NEWS the pair were taken to the hospital for possible smoke inhalation after crews were called to the scene on River Drive Wednesday night. Firefighters didn’t see fire coming out of the building when they arrived at the scene, the chief said. Instead, once crews were in the building, the chief said a neighbor told them the fire was in an apartment toward the back of the structure.Firefighters had to rush in to save the pair when a neighbor says the mother collapsed right outside the door, likely from smoke inhalation. The chief said firefighters were able to rescue the mother and her child, estimated to be around two years old, and get them into an ambulance to be taken to the hospital. At last check, the chief said, the pair were in stable condition and expected to be okay. While the chief said the fire may have started in a ...Guregian: Patriots pre-draft roster projection

Given their additions in free agency, the Patriots could play a game tomorrow and field a fairly competitive team.With 11 picks in the upcoming NFL draft, a three-day event that kicks off in two weeks on April 27, Bill Belichick should be able to fortify the Patriots roster with the hope of adding a few plug-and-play players.If they prove to be difference-makers, players that other teams fear or have to game-plan around on either side of the ball, all the better.But before the Pats start adding to the mix, it’s important to take a look at what the current group looks like, which players figure to have jobs, and who’s on the bubble fighting for a spot.So without further ado, our pre-draft roster projection.QUARTERBACK (2)MAKING THE TEAMMac JonesBailey ZappeFALLING SHORTNoneBreakdown: If you listen to Robert Kraft, Jones will be the starter, but with Bill Belichick refusing to publicly acknowledge him as the No. 1, much less say his name in front of reporters, he’s left open the...Latest news
