(AP) BEIRUT – The Syrian president said in remarks published Friday that he is adamant his regime will not fall and he also lashed out at Gulf countries, which he accused of using their enormous oil wealth to try to drive him from power. Bashar Assad’s comments came as an opposition group, the National Coordination Body for Democratic Change in Syria, accused the regime of being behind the disappearance of two of its leaders. Abdul-Aziz al-Kheir and Ayas Ayyash were expected to take part in a conference Sunday in Damascus by some 20 Syrian groups that are calling for Assad to step down. But they disappeared Thursday along with a friend who had picked them up at Damascus International Airport, the group said. The group’s head, Hassan Abdul-Azim, 일본 파칭코 게임 하기 told The Associated Press by telephone that the regime was believed to be behind the disappearance.

With Taylor Swift exclusively releasing her new video “Delicate” on Spotify last week, it would appear that her tiff with the music streaming giant is officially over. Spotify CEO Daniel Ek told “CBS This Morning” on Tuesday that ending the feud took some time and travel by both parties. “I went to Nashville many, many times to talk to her team, spend more time directly explaining the model, why streaming mattered.

So eventually when the new album came out, she came to Stockholm and spent some time with our team there figuring out a way that made sense for her,” he said. In 2014 Swift pulled her entire catalog of music from Spotify because she felt the company wasn’t fairly compensating artists. “But look, I mean, for me, first off, like I – I should have done a much better job communicating this. So I take full ownership for doing that,” Ek said of the controversy. New video for #Delicate at midnight EST tonight.
