“This may not be my favorite policy to have to implement, but I think as a Legislature we have a responsibility to do this,” Yeager told his colleagues.

That all changed Wednesday night.The former governor’s opponents had him in their sights throughout the debate, working in criticisms of Cuomo in their responses to questions or interjecting at points to get in another quick dig at the former governor of New York. The cross talk was heavy on a stage that hosted nine candidates.

In one exchange, Cuomo deflected on a question about whether he had any regrets from his time in politics, saying that if he regretted anything, it was “that the Democratic Party got to a point that we allowed Mr. Trump to be elected, that we got to a point where rhetoric has no connection to reality.”The other candidates pounced.Adrienne Adams, the speaker of the New York City Council, spoke up, asking Cuomo if he had regrets about his record on health care, child care and more.

“Really, no regrets,” she said as she shook her head at Cuomo.As Cuomo moved to respond, Jessica Ramos, a state senator, tried to get a point in, but was drowned out by a moderator who directed the former governor to answer Adams’ critique.

“It is just not accurate,” Cuomo said.

Incumbent Mayor Eric Adams, a Democrat who pulled out of the primary to instead run for a second term on an independent ballot line, did not participate in the debate.Also, a new prisoner exchange with Russia could take place over the weekend, Zelenskyy said.

He described the latest negotiations as “a political performance” and “artificial diplomacy” designed to stall for time, delay sanctions and convince the United States that Russia is engaged in dialogue.In tandem with the talks, both sides have kept up military actions along the roughly 1,000-kilometer (620-mile) front line.

Ukraine’s Security Service gave more details Wednesday about itson Russian air bases, which it claimed destroyed or damaged 41 aircraft, including strategic bombers.
