Finding someone who speaks the same language as you, especially in a foreign land, leads to an instant connection. In a heartwarming incident, an American YouTuber, Arieh Smith, was offered free food at a Gujarati eatery as he placed the order in Gujarati. In the video, Smith who runs the popular YouTube channel Xiaomanyc, is seen visiting a Gujarati restaurant and surprising its Indian owner by asking for a Gujarati meal. Hearing Smith speak Gujarati, the owner fills up with joy and greets the YouTuber with a smile. As Smith triggers the man’s curiosity, he begins to ask him about where he learned the language and if he had ever tasted Gujarati food.

Five Chinese state-owned companies, including oil giant Sinopec and China Life Insurance, said on Friday they would delist from the New York Stock Exchange, amid economic and diplomatic tensions with the United States. The companies, which also include Aluminium Corporation of China (Chalco), PetroChina and Sinopec Shanghai Petrochemical Co, each said that they would apply to delist their American Depository Shares this month. The five, which in May were flagged by the U.S. securities regulator as failing to meet its auditing standards, will keep their listings in Hong Kong and mainland Chinese markets.

Nagasaki paid tribute to the victims of the U. S. atomic bombing 77 years ago on August 9, with the mayor saying Russia's war on Ukraine showed the world that another nuclear attack is not just a worry but “a tangible and present crisis.” Mayor Tomihisa Taue, in his speech on August 9 at the Nagasaki Peace Park, said nuclear weapons can be used as long as they exist and their elimination is the only way to save the future of humankind. Russia's invasion of Ukraine and threat of nuclear weapons use came only a month after it and four other nuclear powers pledged in a statement that nuclear war should never be fought, Mr. Taue noted. United Nations chief urges nuclear powers to abide by no-first-use pledge “This has shown the world that the use of nuclear weapons is not a groundless fear but a tangible and present crisis,” he said. The belief that nuclear weapons can be possessed not for actual use but for deterrence “is a fantasy, nothing more than a mere hope." The … [Read more...] about Nagasaki marks atomic bombing anniversary amid nuclear war fears

It marked the first time that Russia said that the talks concerned exchanging Viktor Bout, known as the “Merchant of Death,” for two-time Olympian Brittney Griner. “The discussions on the very sensitive topic of an exchange are proceeding via the channels chosen by our presidents,” Alexander Datchiev, the head the North America department at the Russian foreign ministry, was quoted as saying by the state news agency TASS. “Silent diplomacy continues and should bear fruit if Washington, of course, is careful not to fall into propaganda,” he said. Griner was arrested at a Moscow airport in February for possessing vape cartridges with a small amount of cannabis oil.

Deep State types such as Susan Rice are likely behind the FBI’s raid of former President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home, Carl Paladino, a Republican upstate New York businessman who is running for Congress in New York’s 23rd Congressional District, told Breitbart News Saturday .

Former FBI special agent and attorney Asha Rangappa rejected former President Donald Trump 's contention that the documents sought by the FBI at his Florida home were "declassified," describing the defense as "idiotic" and "dumb" on Friday.

"He had a standing order that documents removed from the Oval Office and taken into the residence were deemed to be declassified," the statement said. "The power to classify and declassify documents rests solely with the President of the United States.
