This decision comes amidst growing concerns over an anticipated Israeli military offensive in the Gaza Strip, particularly in Rafah, a region that has been a focal point of conflict between Israel and Hamas. Despite public expressions of concern from Washington regarding the potential escalation of violence, the Biden administration has proceeded with the significant military aid package, which includes more than 1,80… 続きを読む

ラジオ・フリー・アジア、国家安全法への懸念で香港支局を閉鎖
In a significant move reflecting the tightening grip on press freedom in Hong Kong, the U.S.-funded news organization Radio Free Asia (RFA) has announced the closure of its bureau in the city. The decision comes in response to the enactment of a controversial new national security law, which has raised serious concerns over the safety and freedom of journalists operating within the territory. RFA, known for its critical coverage of Asian governments, cited fears for staff safety as the primary reason for its withdrawal, marking a chilling moment for media freedom in Hong Kong.

死者数が増加する中、ドイツはガザ戦争に対する態度を変える
Days after Hamas launched its Oct. 7 attacks on Israel, Germany’s chancellor, Olaf Scholz, was one of the first Western leaders to arrive in Tel Aviv.
Standing beside the Israeli prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, he declared that Germany had “only one place — and it is alongside Israel.”That place now feels increasingly awkward for Germany, Israel’s second-largest arms supplier, and a nation whose leadership calls support for the country a “Staatsraison,” a national reason for existence, as a way of atoning for the Holocaust.
Last week, with Israel&r… 続きを読む

ポーランド首相、欧州は「戦争に備える」必要があると発言。
Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk warned that Europe is in a “pre-war era” but still has a “long way to go” before it's ready to face the threat ahead.
“I don't want to scare anyone, but war is no longer a concept from the past,” Tusk said in an interview with several European media outlets. "It is real, in fact it already started more than two years ago."
Tusk said what’s most worrying right now is that “literally any scenario is possible," adding that Europe has not faced a situation like this since 1945.

米国、パレスチナ人との「殺しの代償」プログラム終了に向けた合意に近づく
The U.S. is near a deal with the Palestinian Authority to end its contentious “martyr payments” for people who commit acts of violence against Israel, two Biden administration officials said.
That would be a key win for the multifaceted U.S. push to reform the PA — from instituting anti-corruption measures to improving basic services — so that it can take over governance of the Gaza Strip whenever the Israel-Hamas war ends.
The PA oversees parts of the West Bank, and it is seen by the Biden administration as the best option for governing Gaza in the future. But the PA… 続きを読む

バージニア州知事、マリファナ法案に拒否権を発動
A push to establish a legal marijuana market in Virginia is officially dead after Republican Gov. Glenn Youngkin vetoed legislation on Thursday.
Virginia has allowed adults over 21 to possess and cultivate cannabis at home since the Legislature passed legalization legislation in 2021. But the law required another vote to implement commercial sales, which failed after Republicans won the House of Delegates later that year.
“The proposed legalization of retail marijuana in the Commonwealth endangers Virginians’ health and safety,” Youngkin said in his veto statement. “It… 続きを読む

The meeting between the two leaders is anticipated to cover a broad spectrum of topics, including geopolitical tensions, economic partnerships, and regional security… 続きを読む

民間航空会社、航空機の「GPS妨害」でロシアを非難
Airplanes flying over the Baltic region are reporting an increasing number of missing or fake GPS signals — and Russia is seen as the likeliest culprit.
The blackout episodes — known as GPS jamming — have been occurring regularly since the start of the war in Ukraine in 2022. The jamming seems to be concentrated around Russia's Kaliningrad exclave — a key military area for Moscow.
“Russia is regularly attacking the aircraft, passengers, and sovereign territory of NATO countries,” said Dana Goward, president of the U.S.-based Resilient Navigation and Timi… 続きを読む

イスラエルはハマスの殲滅と人質解放に着手したが、両方を実現できないのではないかと懸念
Israeli society is divided over how to give priority to the country’s two main war aims—destroying Hamas and freeing 130 hostages, including over 30 dead hostages, abducted almost six months ago. While Israel is seeking wartime unity, many see the goals as currently irreconcilable, since most hostages—hidden deep in tunnels—can’t be freed by force and Hamas is demanding that Israel allow the militant group to survive in order to release them.
“The two aims are clashing with each other, and both can’t happen,” said Mitchell Barak, a political anal… 続きを読む

In a move that has drawn international criticism, Russia has effectively shut down a United Nations panel responsible for monitoring sanctions against North Korea.

米国、戦後ガザへの軍隊派遣を計画
Biden administration officials are in preliminary “conversations” about options for stabilizing post-war Gaza, including a proposal for the Pentagon to help fund either a multinational force or a Palestinian peacekeeping team.
The options being considered would not involve U.S. troops on the ground, according to two Defense Department officials and two other U.S. officials, all granted anonymity to discuss the closed-door diplomatic and military negotiations. Instead, DOD funding would go toward the needs of the security force and complement assistance from other countries.

中国、「アメリカン・ドリーム」を嘲笑するAI動画を公開
As storm clouds gather over an urban landscape resembling New York City, the words “AMERICAN DREAM” hang in a darkening sky as the video ends.
The message is clear: Despite its promises of a better life for all, the United States is in terminal decline.
The video, titled American Dream or American Mirage, is one of a number of segments aired by Chinese state broadcaster CGTN – and shared far and wide on social media – as part of its A Fractured America animated series.
Other videos in the series contain similar titles that invoke images of a dystopian society, such as Ame… 続きを読む
