“This cooperation will get stronger, because at a time when the West is blatantly undermining all the foundations on which the international system is based, of course we – as two great powers – need to think how to carry on in this world,” Lavrov was quoted as saying.

Trump says he’s thinking of putting Republican Senator Ted Cruz on Supreme Court

  • Trump, ⁠introducing ​Cruz at ⁠a rally in Corpus Christi, called the Texas Republican ‘an amazing guy’

CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas: President Donald Trump on Friday said ​he was considering nominating Republican Senator Ted Cruz for a future seat on the US Supreme Court, although Cruz last ‌month said ‌he ​was ‌not interested.
Trump, ⁠introducing ​Cruz at ⁠a rally in Corpus Christi, called the Texas Republican “an amazing guy,” joking that he would easily win ⁠confirmation from Democrats ‌and ‌Republicans in Congress alike ​because ‌they wanted to ‌get him out of the Senate.
“He’s the only guy I know, he’ll ‌get 100 percent of the Democrat vote, 100 percent ⁠of ⁠the Republican vote. They want to get him out of there. He is such a pain in the ass, but he’s so good and so talented.”
