In Hanoi and other Vietnamese cities at this time of year, potted kumquat trees fastened to motorbike seats dodge and weave through traffic in a haze of orange. Families buy them as symbols of luck and good fortune for the new Lunar New Year, which started on Wednesday.This year a typhoon and extreme heat dented the harvest, scrambling prices for kumquats and other ornamental plants associated with the holiday, which is known as Tet in Vietnam. Some people bought smaller kumquats or switched to less expensive options, like orchids or persimmon branches.Ornamental plant farmers are now stuck with unsold inventory…
Long-time leader of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko, once dubbed “Europe’s last dictator”, has been re-elected president with 86.8% of the vote.The result has been condemned as a sham by Lukashenko’s opponents and Western governments.There were four other names on the ballot – carefully chosen to present no challenge to the current leadership – and no credible contenders were allowed to take part in the election, as all opposition figures are either in jail or in exile abroad.In a mammoth four-and-a-half hour press conference on Sunday evening, the BBC’s Russia editor Steve Rosenberg asked questions about democracy and political prisoners.

Chancellor Rachel Reeves is expected to welcome Heathrow’s expansion in an announcement on Wednesday, the BBC understands.A move to encourage in principle a planning application for a third runway at the airport will mark the first stage of the process and come as part of a major speech on wider growth plans to boost the economy.The government cannot prejudge the results of a formal planning application for a specific runway scheme, and the BBC understands there will be no public money for the project announced on Wednesday.The announcement will likely anger campaigners – including within Reeves’ Labour Party – who…
The Russian invasion of Ukraine began in February 2022, and it has forced the two opposing sides to improvise weapons during the conflict. That’s why the European Union is reportedly proposing a ban on all video game console sales to Russia.As reported by Financial Times, EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas indicated that PlayStation and Xbox consoles may land on the sanctions list because Russia has used them to “operate drones.”Nintendo, Microsoft, and Sony stopped selling their consoles in Russia in March 2022, roughly a month after the Russian invasion began. However, that didn’t stop second-hand sellers from getting consoles…

Last year, it was left unchanged at…
Justin Baldoni admitted he “fell short” of Blake Lively’s expectations in an alleged “rambling” voice note, which appears to have been sent after the actors worked on the rooftoop scene for their movie “It Ends With Us.”Baldoni, 41, apologized to his co-star in a six-minute message seemingly sent after the pair met to discuss a now-infamous rooftop scene from the movie in which he claimed in legal documents that he felt pressured by Lively’s husband, Ryan Reynolds, and her friend, Taylor Swift, to use Lively’s rewritten scene for the film.Lively filed a sexual harassment suit in December against Baldoni, his…
