According to the India Today, at least three employees of Disney World have been arrested over an underage sex sting case in Florida in which the accused had allegedly tried to engage in sexual activity with a 13-year-old.

According to a report in The Business Insider, the Polk County Sheriff has said that the accused, Savannah McGrew (29) and Jonathan McGrew (34) had tried to engage in sexual activity with the girl.

The two had also informed the police that they worked as custodians at Disney World's Hollywood Studios. The report further says that a Disney spokesperson had confirmed that Savannah and Jonathan were on unpaid leave at the time of their arrests.

On the other hand, another Disney World employee, Kenneth Javier Aquino (26) was also arrested for trying to meet up with a minor girl to have sex, said the report.

Kenneth had informed the police that he worked as a lifeguard at Disney World's Animal Kingdom Lodge hotel, however, the company spokesperson denied his employment.

The report further states that about 17 people have been charged in similar cases after the police and investigation agencies launched an undercover probe named ‘Operation Child Protector’ in which officers posed as children to interact with suspects.

"You've got to know who your children are talking to, who they're communicating with," Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd said at a news conference while detailing the arrests.

According to The New York Post, in total, the arrests led to 49 felony and two misdemeanor charges. Those who have been arrested in the sex sting case are aged between 26 and 47 and all hail from Florida except for one.

Upon arriving to participate in the summit of the European Political Community, which includes around forty heads of state in Budapest, he said, "I look forward to sitting with the elected U.S. president and seeing how we will collectively ensure we meet challenges, including the threats from Russia and North Korea." He also noted that the strengthening of ties between Russia and North Korea poses a threat to the United States as well, according to reports from Agence France-Presse.

Before Trump's victory, Rutte expressed confidence that a united Washington would remain part of the defensive alliance, even if Trump became the 47th president of the United States. In an interview with German public broadcaster ZDF last Monday night, he stated that both Republicans and Democrats understand that NATO serves not only the security of Europe but also that of America. He added that both candidates are aware that the security of the United States is closely tied to NATO.

On Wednesday, NATO congratulated Trump on his victory but did not address the Ukrainian issue.

It is noteworthy that the relationship between the elected U.S. president and the defense alliance was not the best during his first term in the White House. Trump criticized NATO member states multiple times and even hinted at withdrawing from the alliance unless they increased their financial contributions.

Additionally, the issue of the Russian-Ukrainian war is one of the matters that complicate relations between the two sides, especially since Trump has repeatedly stated that he can end this ongoing conflict, which began in 2022, quickly. He implied that he had a peace plan between Kyiv and Moscow, while his vice president, JD Vance, revealed aspects of that plan, which stipulated Ukraine's commitment not to join NATO, thereby sending reassuring signals to the Russians.

Furthermore, many NATO member states in Europe fear that Trump might halt military aid to Ukraine after he previously criticized the U.S. for pouring funds into supporting Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.
