Negotiators have reached a formal agreement, with the ceasefire between Israel and Hamas set to take effect this Sunday, January 19, as announced by Qatari Prime Minister Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani in Doha and U.S. President Joe Biden in Washington. Now that a significant breakthrough in peace has been accomplished, UFC star Conor McGregor has put forward a new proposal to bring an end to the conflict between Russia and Ukraine.
The deal was finally reached after over a year of negotiations with Egypt, Qatar, and the US serving as mediators, just days before Donald Trump was set to become the President of the United States on January 20.
Years after being a rival of Khabib Nurmagomedov and playing a key role in the ongoing debate between Dagestan and Ireland in the world of MMA, Conor McGregor now urges the citizens of Russia to finally find peace after a decades-long conflict sparked in 1991 when Ukraine gained independence. It’s worth noting that recently, US Senate appointee Marco Rubio suggested that the US pursue “bold diplomacy” to resolve Russia’s ongoing conflict with Ukraine. In his Senate hearing, Rubio stated that while he disagreed with Vladimir Putin’s decision to invade, there’s no doubt that the conflict must be brought to an end.
Rubio strongly suggested that Moscow and Kiev need to make concessions, emphasizing that Ukraine’s main issue isn’t a lack of money but a lack of resources. He jokingly wondered if, in a few months, Conor McGregor might finally make his forecast come true. Nevertheless, it’s worth noting that McGregor also has a good relationship with Vladimir Putin.
I couldn’t find any information about Conor McGregor’s bond with the Russian President.
Here is the paraphrased text:
Conor McGregor has had a surprising friendship with Vladimir Putin since the Russian president invited him to the 2018 World Cup final in Russia. This unusual relationship has actually become a reality. Following their initial meeting in 2018, Ken “The Notorious” McGregor publicly expressed admiration for Putin.
A year later, McGregor announced that he also gave Putin a gift on the same occasion.
During a news conference in Moscow, the Irishman stated that the first bottle of “Proper Twelve” whiskey, which his company produces, was sent to the president as a gift. The president’s security team inspected the bottle to ensure it wasn’t a threat, but it’s unlikely the president views McGregor as a threat. Now that the Irishman has a direct line to the president, he might be able to help ease tensions between their countries in the coming days. Do you think the Irishman will succeed in convincing President Putin to end the conflict? Share your thoughts in the comments.
