HANOI, April 8 (Reuters) - U.S.
Secretary of State Antony Blinken will visit Vietnam next week, Senator Jeff Merkley told a news conference in Hanoi on Saturday, as part of Washington's efforts to move diplomatic relations with Hanoi on to a higher level this year.
Last year, Hardin called the claims against Watson 'meritless' and alleged they were made following a failed attempt to blackmail his client for $30,000. He previously accused the plaintiffs of being motivated by financial gain, saying that massage therapist Ashley Solis originally sought a $100,000 settlement from his client.
'He basically didn't want the rest of his body massaged, he wanted his groin area massaged and his butt only,' Lewis told Tasha K., echoing accusations from other female massage therapists against Watson. 'He kept saying ''Do you want to put in your mouth?'' It was just very very uncomfortable.'
Former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev on Friday wrote a fierce criticism of foreign social media firms, mentioning by name both Meta and YouTube, but he hinted that the door leading to their possible return to the Russian market would be left ajar.
The regulator, Roskomnadzor, said adverts on the platform were calling for the communications systems of Russia and Belarus' railway networks to be suspended and that their dissemination was evidence of the U.S.
Outraged that Meta Platforms was allowing social media users in Ukraine to post messages such as "Death to the Russian invaders," Moscow blocked Instagram this week, having already stopped access to Facebook because of what it said were restrictions by the platform on Russian media.
'But there was this one pivotal moment where I'd gone and got loads of filler and I posted a YouTube video and I hadn't let the filler settle and it was really swollen and a screenshot from that video, it trended on Twitter for weeks.
March 18 (Reuters) - Russia on Friday demanded that Alphabet Inc's Google stop spreading what it called threats against Russian citizens on its YouTube video-sharing platform, a move that could presage an outright block of the service on Russian territory.
"The 'guardians' of free speech have in all seriousness allowed users of their social media to wish death upon the Russian military," Medvedev, who served as president from 2008 to 2012 and teacher english as second language is now deputy secretary of Russia's Security Council, wrote on the messaging app Telegram.
Anton Gorelkin, a member of Russia's State Duma committee on information and communications, pointed Russians to services that would help them move videos from YouTube to the domestic equivalent, RuTube.

The grand jury's decision came about a year after the women first filed their suits, which have now been consolidated into one, accusing Watson of exposing himself, touching them with his penis or kissing them against their will during massage appointments.
The grand private tutor hourly rate jury considered criminal complaints from nine of Watson's accusers before it decided not to move forward with charges last Friday. The complaints all involved allegations of sexual harassment or sexual assault.
The three-time Pro Bowler suddenly became a hot commodity on the NFL trade market last week when a grand jury declined to indict Watson on nine criminal complaints, after 22 women accused him of harassment and sexual assault in civil lawsuits last year
The confidential agreement also stipulated that the accuser agreed to dismiss the lawsuit with prejudice 'within 24 hours of the Execution Date,' comply with a non-disparagement clause that bars her from criticizing Watson publicly, and forbid her from disclosing the amount of the settlement.
Earlier this week, the QB-hungry Carolina Panthers, New Orleans Saints and Cleveland Browns met with Watson, according to multiple reports, and he purportedly was set to visit with Atlanta on Wednesday before choosing a team. The Dolphins were supposedly interested in trading for him before the November deadline.
Watson still faces civil lawsuits and he was questioned at his lawyer's office for four hours last week before his meeting with Cleveland. And he also might face disciplinary action from the NFL under the personal conduct policy.
He is accused of forcing women to perform oral sex on him, disrobing and forcibly touching massage therapists and other women, among several allegations. He has denied these claims and, through his attorney, insisted that any sexual interaction with the women was entirely consensual.
In a press conference in April 2021, accuser Ashley Solis says she can no longer do her job as a massage therapist 'without shaking during the session' after Watson allegedly forced his erect penis into her hand during a session
