French President Macron regrets Belgium choosing Lockheed jetsBRATISLAVA/PARIS (Reuters) - French President Emmanuel Macron said on Friday that he regretted Belgium's decision to choose Lockheed Martin's F-35 stealth jets over the Eurofighter Typhoon planes. "It's a decision that was the result of a process which I greatly respect and which was linked to political constraints specific to Belgium, which are not for me to comment upon, but strategically it goes against European interests," said Macron at a news conference held with Slovakia President Andrej Kiska. "For my part, I regret the choice that was made." On Thursday, Belgium announced its decision to go with the Lockheed Martin planes to replace its ageing F-16s in a 4 billion euro ($4.5 billion) deal, saying the decision came down to price.

The probe, which has been underway since earlier this year, concerns whether the automaker told investors it was on track with targets for the closely-watched build-out of the Model 3 car despite knowing it could not meet such goals, The Wall Street Journal reported Friday.

Maisie Williams just gave us the Stark reunion we didn't know we neededThe last time Arya Stark saw her older brother Robb on Game of Thrones, it was a pretty horrendous scene. You might recall Robb's headless body was being marched through the streets with the head of his direwolf Grey Wind attached to a mocking chant of "King in the North!"  SEE ALSO: Maisie Williams filmed her final 'Game of Thrones' scene alone But thankfully, Maisie Williams just gave us the wholesome Stark reunion we so desperately needed. Williams posted a photo on her Instagram along with her Game of Thrones co-star Richard Madden, who played Robb Stark. Oh how satisfying it is to see the King in the North reunited with his little sister again.  View this post on Instagram ��‍♀️ A post shared by Maisie Williams (@maisie_williams) on Oct 26, 2018 at 3:06am PDT Madden also shared the photo, which was apparently taken at the Hampstead Theatre, where Williams is currently starring in the play "I And You." Madden captioned the photo "Last night watching @maisie_williams being brilliant in her new play." Such a supportive big brother! Seriously, can't the Lord of Light bring Robb back or something already?  WATCH: How that epic 'GoT' Arya-Brienne showdown was shot
