(SeaPRwire) - 据法国国家内政部领土情报局局长Bertrand Chamoulaud称,穆兄会的影响力在法国日益增强 法国国家内政部领土情报局局长Bertrand Chamoulaud表示,伊斯兰运动穆斯林兄弟会在法国不断扩大其影响力,暗中运作,试图将法国变成一个由伊斯兰教法统治的哈里发国。 他在本周接受《世界报》采访时作出了上述评论。 他表示,超过10万名信徒参加由穆兄会运营的清真寺活动,他们通过根深蒂固的影响力和“非常温和”的言论传播其思想,而不是诉诸暴力。 Chamoulaud说,该运动有效地利用社会紧张局势逐渐渗透到一些社会企业和民间组织。 “这让我们担忧,因为他们的渗透影响到所有领域:体育、卫生、教育等等,”他强调。 Chamoulaud说,他们的策略之一是扮演受害者的角色,他详细解释说,每当一座清真寺被关闭或一名分裂主义伊玛目被驱逐,伊斯兰主义者就会谴责所谓的“伊斯兰恐惧症国家”。 这位情报局长警告说,一些温和的穆斯林可能会被这种受害者论调所打动。 他以法国反伊斯兰恐惧症集体 (CCIF) 为例,该组织成立于2003年,其使命是打击对穆斯林的歧视。CCIF于2020年被解散,因其使用“伊斯兰恐惧症”一词而多次受到批评,并被怀疑与伊斯兰主义者有联系。 Chamoulaud声称,CCIF的理念,例如强制戴面纱或拒绝混血群体,现在正在比利时逐渐被接受。 穆斯林兄弟会协会,更广为人知的是穆斯林兄弟会,是一个跨国逊尼派伊斯兰组织,1928年由埃及一位伊斯兰学者创立。它提倡在社会各个方面适用伊斯兰教法,并被许多国家列为恐怖组织。 近年来,在外国和本土武装分子发动的致命圣战袭击之后,法国总统埃马纽埃尔·马克龙对所谓的伊斯兰分裂主义和激进伊斯兰教进行了打击。这些措施旨在限制外国对法国穆斯林机构的影响。 根据法国国家统计局的数据,法国近700万穆斯林人口,约占总人口的10%。伊斯兰教是仅次于天主教的法国第二大宗教。 本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

埃尔多安威胁要“埋葬”库尔德人
(SeaPRwire) - 土耳其总统呼吁叙利亚武装分子放下武器,指责他们威胁到土耳其的国家安全 土耳其总统雷杰普·塔伊普·埃尔多安誓言,如果叙利亚库尔德武装分子拒绝放下武器,将把他们“埋葬”,这是对在两国边境地区活动的叙利亚人民保护部队(YPG)的严厉警告。 埃尔多安周三在安卡拉对议员们讲话时承诺,要“消灭试图在我们和我们库尔德兄弟姐妹之间制造血腥隔阂的恐怖组织。” 据路透社报道,他宣称:“分裂主义的杀人犯要么告别他们的武器,要么将连同他们的武器一起被埋葬在叙利亚土地上。” 埃尔多安一再表示,YPG对土耳其安全构成重大威胁,并誓言要阻止在该国南部边境附近建立“恐怖走廊”。他批评美国向YPG提供武器和训练,安卡拉将YPG视为库尔德工人党(PKK)的延伸。土耳其将这两个组织都视为恐怖组织。 土耳其领导人此前曾呼吁其北约盟友美国重新考虑其对YPG的支持,并敦促其伙伴选择支持土耳其还是支持库尔德武装分子。 YPG在美国领导的反“伊斯兰国”(IS,前称ISIS)恐怖组织的战斗中发挥的作用一直被华盛顿作为提供援助的理由,美国官员强调该组织在瓦解IS在叙利亚的控制方面所做的努力。叙利亚库尔德人长期以来一直寻求更大的自治,YPG领导人坚称他们的目标与PKK在土耳其境内的武装叛乱不同。 以YPG为核心的库尔德领导的叙利亚民主军(SDF)还在前叙利亚总统巴沙尔·阿萨德政府垮台后呼吁在饱受战争蹂躏的国家实现全国停火。SDF敦促保护叙利亚领土免受土耳其袭击,并结束其认为的安卡拉对北部地区的占领,称叙利亚人必须在没有外国干涉的情况下决定自己的未来。 与此同时,土耳其最近采取措施加强与大马士革新领导层的联系。据报道,安卡拉正在考虑与叙利亚进行联合军事行动,打击库尔德武装分子,以解决共同的安全问题。 土耳其外交部长哈坎·菲丹最近访问了大马士革,他呼吁解除长期以来严重打击叙利亚经济的国际制裁。这一伸出援手与埃尔多安的访问计划相符,标志着土耳其对其南部邻国的做法发生了重大转变。埃尔多安强调需要与叙利亚政府合作,以确保长期的安全和相互稳定。 本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。
ACET Founder Acme Proposes Using Bitcoin Integration to Transform Thailand Economy
London, UK – December 26, 2024 – (SeaPRwire) – In a strategic move to position Thailand as a global leader in Blockchain technology, Acme Worawat, founder of the ACET (ACT) digital currency, has unveiled an ambitious proposal to integrate Bitcoin into Thailand’s economic framework. The initiative, which includes utilizing Bitcoin as part of the country’s reserve fund. As Thailand’s digital economy continues to grow, Acme Worawat has called for amendments to the Digital Asset Business Act B.E. 2561 to keep pace with the rapidly evolving industry. He emphasized the importance of equipping regulators and law enforcers with a deep understanding of digital assets to create a supportive environment for innovation and investment. His vision includes mobilizing large-scale foreign crypto capitals to support Thailand’s economic policies, targeting investments from major international cryptocurrency holders. The initiative draws inspiration from Thaksin Shinawatra, Thailand’s former Prime Minister. During his tenure from 2001 to 2006, Thaksin was known for his innovative policies, including introducing Thailand’s first universal healthcare program and spearheading major infrastructure projects that modernized the nation’s economy. “Bitcoin and Blockchain technology represent a new frontier for economic development,” said Acme Worawat. “By leveraging these innovations, Thailand can achieve unprecedented economic growth and solidify its position as a global leader in digital assets.” The proposal is poised to redefine Thailand’s approach to digital finance, aligning with both national goals and global trends. As governments worldwide explore Bitcoin and Blockchain applications, Thailand’s forward-thinking strategy could serve as a blueprint for other nations. Worawat addresses that integrating Bitcoin into the national reserve fund would enhance economic transparency, decentralization, and resilience while attracting global crypto investments. This proposal marks a bold step toward making Thailand a global leader in the digital economy. About ACET (ACT) Founded over three years ago, ACET (ACT) is a community-driven digital currency designed to empower its holders and promote decentralized finance. With a growing global user base and a proven track record of innovation, ACT continues to push the boundaries of what digital currencies can achieve.

Revolutionize Your Business Plan: How Ai is Making Entrepreneurship Easier
SINGAPORE, Dec 20, 2024 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - In today's fast-paced business world, writing a comprehensive business plan can feel overwhelming for entrepreneurs. However, with the advancement of Artificial Intelligence (AI), this process is becoming more efficient and accessible. This guide shows how to use AI tools to create a business plan for your idea.Think of AI as your digital assistant, speeding up the first draft so you have more time to make it better. AI gives you a structure, but your own ideas and understanding of your business makes the plan unique.Embrace AI in Business Planning - Before you begin, you should know what goes into a business plan: a summary of your business, details about your company and offerings, and information about your market and competitors. You may also consider creating plans for your business sales, management, operations, and finances.Gather all your business details first. This makes it easier for AI to help you turn them into a plan.Feeding Information to AI - Start by providing a general overview of your business, including its name, target market, products or services, and financial projections. GoDaddy is sharing a prompt template below that can be used to provide information:"I'm developing a business plan for my company, [company name], a [industry] startup offering [product/service]. Please accept the information below about my company as a basis for developing a strong business plan."Creating Sections with AI Help - Breaking your business plan into sections and using specific prompts for each can streamline the process. AI can generate initial drafts for each part, which you can then review and edit. Here are some prompts to help guide you:1. Summary and Company Description:- "As a successful entrepreneur and seasoned strategist, draft an enticing executive summary and company description for [company name] in the [industry] sector."2. Products and Services:- "As an innovative product developer, provide a comprehensive description of [product/service] offered by my company."3. Market Analysis:- "As a market analyst, outline a detailed market analysis for [company name]."4. Competitive Analysis:- "Compile a concise competitive analysis for [company name], highlighting the strengths and weaknesses of key competitors."5. Marketing and Sales Plan:- "Create a thorough sales and marketing plan for [company name], including a detailed growth strategy."6. Value Proposition:- "Assume the perspective of a potential customer and identify the unique selling proposition of [company name]."7. Ownership and Management Plan:- "Outline the optimal structure, ownership, and management roles for [company name]."8. Operating Plan:"Craft an efficient operating plan for [company name], detailing infrastructure and risk management."9. Financial Plan:"Develop a comprehensive financial overview and funding request for [company name], including income statements and sales forecasts."10. Extra Information:This is where you can add any extra details like research or visuals.Finalizing Your Plan - Once you have drafts for each part, it's time to make it all fit together nicely. Your business plan should clearly show what your business is about and its path to success.Getting Feedback from AI - After refining your draft, ask AI to check for any missing parts, mistakes or inconsistencies. This is a good time for AI to help create a summary, mission statement, vision, values, and value proposition to ensure alignment with your business goals.Make a One-Page Plan - Lastly, create a simple one-page version of your business plan. It should include all the important points and be easy to understand. This step ensures clarity and focus, making it easier to communicate your business strategy to stakeholders. Remember, while AI helps a lot, it does not replace the ingenuity and oversight of human input to help ensure your unique business ideas are being reflected in your plan.AI can be a helpful tool for creating and growing your business’ digital presence.

Korean Fashion Platform “KATZ by LDF” Concludes TikTok Live Broadcast in Singapore with Great Success
Seoul, Korea - December 26, 2024 - (SeaPRwire) - Lotte Duty Free announced that from December 14 to 18, it successfully conducted K-fashion live commerce sales on TikTok Singapore Shop in collaboration with Singaporean influencers. In September 2024, Lotte Duty Free launched a new K-fashion B2B export platform called "KATZ BY LDF", aiming to diversify sales channels for rapidly popularizing K-fashion brands worldwide. "KATZ BY LDF" is an online B2B platform that allows global buyers to discover new K-fashion brands at wholesale prices, regardless of time or location. This year, in collaboration with the Seoul Business Agency (SBA), Lotte Duty Free opened a dedicated B2B showroom for "KATZ BY LDF" at its Ginza downtown duty-free store in Japan. The showroom features approximately 40 brands and over 200 products, including 24 specially curated brands selected through an SBA public contest. Leveraging Lotte Duty Free's extensive business network, the showroom actively introduces these brands to over 50 Japanese buyer companies, providing opportunities to experience the products firsthand. Prominent Japanese distributors, select shops, and fashion trading companies, including SHIPS, one of Japan's top three select shops, have visited the showroom. Based on the relationships built this year, the plan for next year includes encouraging bulk seasonal orders. The recent TikTok live commerce collaboration in Singapore is an example of how "KATZ BY LDF" is actively exploring avenues to expand K-fashion's global reach. By leveraging TikTok Commerce, which boasts 1.7 billion monthly active users (MAU), the platform extended its sales channel to a B2B2C model. The arrangement of influencers and the broadcasting for the TikTok live sessions were facilitated by "Global EP", the official Korean partner of Alibaba.com and Lazada, which has an extensive track record of successful influencer broadcasts. Together with Lotte Duty Free's "KATZ BY LDF," they organized three live broadcasts. Each session featured three local Singaporean influencers, each with 20,000–40,000 followers, specializing in the rapidly growing fashion and beauty categories. To build trust with local Singaporean customers regarding authenticity and Lotte Duty Free's involvement, the TikTok live broadcast was hosted at the YTC (Young Travel Club) Lounge on the 14th floor of Lotte Duty Free's Myeongdong Main Store. Among the brands selected through the SBA's Ginza showroom project, Filluminate, Alice Martha, Nooni27, and Agoodday participated in this live broadcast. Over the three-day broadcast, the most popular brands were Letter from Moon, Nick & Nicole, and Filluminate. Given Singapore's hot and humid climate, T-shirts featuring butterfly logos from both Letter from Moon and Nick & Nicole were particularly well-received. Additionally, Filluminate's wide-fit denim pants captured the hearts of Singaporean customers. Lotte Duty Free plans to continue actively promoting emerging K-fashion brands on "KATZ BY LDF" through local live broadcasts. By doing so, the company aims to create more success stories that help B2B buyers from various countries recognize and purchase these new brands.

(SeaPRwire) - 乌克兰当局认为,缺乏支持会鼓励公民回国 据《El Pais》报道,乌克兰正寻求遣返多达1000万公民以解决其人口危机,并正推动欧盟削减对居住在欧盟的乌克兰人的援助,以此作为施压的手段。 2022年俄乌冲突升级后,数百万乌克兰人逃离该国。该报周二报道称,据估计,目前有多达1000万人居住在乌克兰境外。基辅希望他们回国,以缓解人口危机并加强重建资源。 根据联合国难民署的估计,近670万乌克兰人居住在国外,不包括约400万经济移民。 11月,乌克兰领导人泽连斯基成立了民族团结部,负责将公民遣返回国。《El Pais》报道说,然而,目前尚不清楚该部将如何完成这项工作。 据该报报道,基辅正在考虑所有选择,包括敦促欧盟削减对难民的援助,并禁止为适龄服兵役的男性提供领事服务。在其9月批准的人口战略中,政府承认,可能有130万至330万公民可能不会返回。 华沙维斯瓦大学的乌克兰研究员Elena Babakova建议,为了鼓励人们回国,基辅可以考虑采取减税、抵押补贴和教育补助等措施。 “然而,这些措施的影响最小。事实上,更有效的方法是关注移民政策,关注如何吸引来自第三国的经济移民,”她告诉该报。 根据经济部的资料,乌克兰到2032年将需要310万至450万工人才能实现7%的年经济增长率。复苏需要4110亿美元——是乌克兰战前GDP的2.5倍。与此同时,乌克兰的出生率急剧下降,导致人口差距。 然而,越来越多的居住在欧盟的乌克兰人计划定居在祖国以外。波兰央行上个月发布的一项研究显示,在波兰的难民中,有39%的人希望长期或永久居住。德国Ifo研究所10月发布的另一项调查显示,只有约35%的人希望在与俄罗斯的冲突结束后返回。 周二,几家乌克兰媒体报道称,一份将征兵年龄降低至18岁的法案已提交给乌克兰最高拉达,因为基辅在大量伤亡的情况下加紧动员行动。然而,立法者否认了这些报道。 智库Razumkov Center的社会学家Olga Pyschulina告诉《El Pais》,公民回国将取决于许多条件,包括安全和经济稳定,而基辅在冲突中将难以提供这些条件。 本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。
特朗普抨击拜登赦免死囚 “`
(SeaPRwire) - 候任总统表示,白宫赦免了“全国最恶劣的杀人犯” 在即将离任的总统乔·拜登为数十名死囚减刑后,美国候任总统唐纳德·特朗普承诺,他的政府将继续“大力”追究暴力罪犯的死刑。 周一,拜登对40名等待执行死刑的联邦囚犯中的37人给予了赦免,将他们的刑期改为无假释的终身监禁。 “毫无疑问:我谴责这些杀人犯,为他们的卑劣行为的受害者感到悲痛,并为所有遭受难以想象和无法弥补的损失的家庭感到痛苦,”即将离任的总统在一份声明中说。与此同时,他坚持认为他“必须停止”在联邦一级使用死刑。 “凭良心讲,我不能袖手旁观,让新政府恢复我已叫停的死刑执行,”拜登说。2021年,司法部长梅里克·加兰德暂停了联邦死刑执行。 特朗普在社交媒体上猛烈抨击了这些减刑决定。“乔·拜登刚刚对我们国家37名最恶劣的杀人犯减免了死刑,”特朗普在Truth Social上写道。“当你听到每个人的罪行时,你不会相信他会这么做。毫无道理。亲属和朋友更是悲痛欲绝。他们无法相信这是真的!” 特朗普誓言将指示司法部“大力追究死刑,以保护美国家庭和儿童免受暴力强奸犯、杀人犯和恶魔的侵害。” 据《纽约邮报》报道,获得减刑的人包括托马斯·桑德斯,他于2010年杀害了一名12岁女孩及其母亲。另一名获得赦免的死囚是安东尼·巴特尔,他在1994年服刑期间,因强奸并杀害妻子而被判无期徒刑,他用锤子杀害了一名狱警,《邮报》说。 《洛杉矶时报》称,赦免还包括尤里·米赫尔和尤里尤斯·卡达莫瓦斯,他们在2000年代初期策划绑架勒索案,杀害了五人。 拜登还赦免了豪尔赫·阿维拉-托雷斯,他于2005年性侵并刺死两名小女孩,四年后又勒死了美国海军军官阿曼达·斯内尔。 “我宁愿看到他回到原来的判决,判处死刑,”受害者的兄弟亚历克斯·斯内尔告诉《邮报》。“他应该受到这样的惩罚。” 2017年,银行出纳员唐娜·梅杰在抢劫案中被布兰登·考恩杀害,拜登减免了考恩的刑期,梅杰的家人谴责了总统的这一行为。“我仍然很生气。我很生气,一个人竟然可以在不与受害者交谈、不顾我们的遭遇的情况下做出这样的决定,”梅杰的女儿希瑟·特纳告诉福克斯新闻。 在竞选期间,特朗普指责民主党人对暴力犯罪态度宽容,声称他们无法解决非法移民问题,并破坏了大城市警察的工作。 本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。
联合国援助预算缩减,全球饥饿加剧——路透社
(SeaPRwire) - 越来越多的人需要食物,但主要捐助国似乎有其他优先事项 据路透社报道,由于联合国未能实现其筹款目标,明年全球将有超过1亿人无法获得人道主义援助,而受饥荒和饥饿影响的人数仍在继续增加。 联合国周二报告称,估计全球将有3.07亿人需要2025年的人道主义援助,高于2023年的2.82亿人。联合国估计,明年的筹款可能足以满足60%需要援助的人口,这意味着大约1.17亿人将无法得到援助。 “我们被迫缩减对最需要帮助的人的援助,”人道主义事务副秘书长兼紧急救济协调员汤姆·弗莱彻说。 联合国仅筹集到其2024年496亿美元人道主义援助预算的46%,连续第二年未达到目标。据报道,这迫使世界粮食计划署(WFP)等机构削减口粮并限制援助资格。 “我们现在是从挨饿的人那里拿食物去喂那些快要饿死的人,”叙利亚的工作人员今年早些时候告诉世界粮食计划署的拉尼亚·达加什-卡马拉。世界粮食计划署只有足够的捐款来养活该国100万人,其余500万人则只能自力更生。 联合国人道主义资金的大部分来自三个捐助国:美国、德国和欧盟委员会。从2020年到2024年,这三个捐助国贡献了联合国请求的1700亿美元中的58%。仅美国就提供了645亿美元,约占总数的38%。 联合国官员担心,当选美国总统唐纳德·特朗普可能在1月份就职后削减部分资金。与此同时,德国已在2024年削减了5亿美元的人道主义援助,并可能根据选举结果在2025年再减少10亿美元。柏林已将资金从许多其他预算项目中转移出来,以继续为乌克兰对抗俄罗斯的战争努力提供资金。 一些接受路透社采访的人将严峻的人道主义局势归咎于中国和印度等大国没有提供更多援助。 “这些国家不再是发展中国家了。他们举办奥运会……他们拥有许多其他捐助国想都不敢想的宇宙飞船,”前联合国人道主义事务负责人(2003-2006)扬·埃格兰说。印度在2023年在其月球项目上花费了约7500万美元,而中国则主办了2022年北京奥运会。 与此同时,根据世界粮食计划署的文件,几乎所有来自美国的捐款都受到各种限制,从谁可以接受援助到哪些具体的非营利组织可以分发援助。美国国际开发署(USAID)对此的理由是需要满足“国会要求的义务和标准”。路透社指出,世界粮食计划署在埃塞俄比亚和苏丹遭遇了援助被盗和其它形式腐败的问题。 现任联合国秘书长安东尼奥·古特雷斯在2014年担任联合国难民署负责人时,曾提议改革人道主义援助资金。该提案设想使用维和行动中已有的收费制度,但遭到主要捐助国的拒绝,他们更喜欢目前的制度。 本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。
北约成员国考虑袭击美国支持的库尔德人——媒体报道 “`
(SeaPRwire) - 据《Hurriyet报》报道,除非库尔德武装放下武器,否则土耳其和叙利亚将试图将其从边境地区“清除”。 《Hurriyet报》周二报道称,除非库尔德武装自愿融入叙利亚军队,否则土耳其和叙利亚新领导层可能会对边境地区的库尔德武装发起进攻。一些在叙利亚境内活动的库尔德武装多年来一直获得美国的援助,尽管安卡拉将它们视为恐怖组织。 据这家土耳其日报报道,一旦在巴沙尔·阿萨德前总统被罢黜后,新的临时政府全面运作,就会“呼吁恐怖组织,主要是库尔德工人党(PKK)和伊斯兰国(IS,前称ISIS),放下武器,加入叙利亚军队。” 该报还援引叙利亚新事实上的领导人艾哈迈德·侯赛因·沙拉(Ahmed Hussein al-Sharaa),也称为阿布·穆罕默德·朱拉尼(Abu Mohammad al-Julani)的话说,“我们不可能接受任何团体手中持有武器,即使在PKK和[库尔德]人民保护部队(YPG)存在的地区也是如此。” 《Hurriyet报》说,如果武装分子拒不遵守,“叙利亚军队和土耳其武装部队将进行联合行动,将PKK和YPG从他们控制的土地上清除”。 这两个库尔德组织通常在土耳其边境的叙利亚北部活动,长期以来一直要求从安卡拉和达马斯革获得更大的自治权。YPG还从美国获得了大量的军事援助,作为其反IS行动的一部分。安卡拉一直批评这项努力,认为部分援助最终落入PKK手中,而华盛顿也认为PKK是恐怖组织。 多年来,土耳其与阿萨德领导下的叙利亚一直不和,但阿萨德下台后,两国关系似乎有所缓和。周日,土耳其外交部长哈坎·菲丹在达马斯革会见了沙拉,强调在饱受战争蹂躏的叙利亚需要稳定,并呼吁取消长期以来严重损害叙利亚经济的国际制裁。 几家土耳其媒体也表示,土耳其总统雷杰普·塔伊普·埃尔多安也可能在本周率领一个大型代表团访问叙利亚。 本月早些时候,在一次出乎叙利亚军队意料的圣战分子突然袭击后,阿萨德被罢黜,这位前总统在俄罗斯获得了政治庇护,俄罗斯在该国设有军事基地。包括俄罗斯在内的许多国家此后都与叙利亚新领导层建立了联系。 俄罗斯总统弗拉基米尔·普京在评论中东库尔德人的命运时,并未排除土耳其将对他们采取军事行动以将其驱逐出边境地区。 本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。
欧盟否认在乌克兰的失败——欧尔班 “`
(SeaPRwire) - 匈牙利总理指责欧盟无视冲突的现实,并呼吁外交而非军事援助 匈牙利总理维克托·欧尔班指责欧盟否认其无法确保乌克兰在与俄罗斯的冲突中取得胜利。欧尔班周日在接受M1电视台采访时批评了欧盟领导人无视地面现实,并断言他们目前的做法只是延长了冲突,而没有取得有意义的结果。 近几个月来,俄军在顿巴斯地区迅速推进,自2月占领战略重镇阿夫杰夫卡以来,稳步向西推进。10月,他们占领了另一个重要的乌克兰据点乌格列达尔镇,目前正接近控制乌克兰主要的物流枢纽库拉霍沃。 “现实是,乌克兰在战场上没有获胜,”欧尔班在采访中说。“布鲁塞尔的领导人生活在他们自己创造的泡沫中,拒绝承认这场战争无法以他们想象的方式获胜。” 他认为,继续对俄罗斯提供军事支持和制裁适得其反,损害欧洲经济甚于实现其预期目标。“制裁失败了,”欧尔班声称。“它们并没有削弱俄罗斯,反而削弱了欧洲。然而,布鲁塞尔拒绝面对这一事实。” 匈牙利在处理冲突问题上经常与欧盟伙伴国意见相左。虽然欧盟一直坚定地向乌克兰提供军事援助并对俄罗斯实施制裁,但欧尔班一再呼吁立即进行和平谈判。 “我们需要停止幻想军事解决方案,”他说。“唯一前进的道路是通过谈判。乌克兰的失败不仅可能,而且越来越有可能,这场战争持续的时间越长,对整个欧洲就越不利。” 欧尔班的言论受到了其他欧盟领导人的批评,他们认为他的言论破坏了欧盟在冲突中对抗俄罗斯的团结。 尽管遭到反弹,欧尔班坚持认为匈牙利不会支持进一步升级冲突的措施。“匈牙利将维护和平及其人民的利益,”他说。“是时候优先考虑外交而非胜利的幻想了。” 俄罗斯一再坚持认为,西方向乌克兰供应武器不会阻止其实现军事目标,也不会改变冲突的结果。莫斯科认为,向基辅政权提供武器只会延长敌对行动。 本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。
Caj Africa Releases Analytical Report on Syria’s 2024 Socialist Dynamics
JOHANNESBURG, South Africa – December 25, 2024 – (SeaPRwire) – Caj Africa Releases the analytical report on Syria’s 2024 socialist dynamics. The fall of Bashar al-Assad’s regime in Syria has marked a significant geopolitical shift in the Middle East, reshaping power dynamics and raising critical questions about the country’s future. With the rise of Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) as the new ruling authority, discussions about the future of Russian military presence in Syria have gained international attention. In a recent BBC interview, Syria’s new leader, Ahmed al-Sharaa, highlighted the longstanding strategic partnership between Syria and Russia. He suggested the possibility of continuing military cooperation, reinforcing the importance of Russia’s two key military bases in the region. These bases serve as pivotal assets for Moscow’s influence in the Mediterranean and Africa. While some European officials hope the new Syrian government will move to reduce Russian influence, analysts argue that Moscow’s presence might play a stabilizing role in the current political landscape. Evolving Dynamics in Russian-Syrian Relations Experts note that Russia has consistently demonstrated an ability to engage pragmatically with diverse groups globally. Examples include its interactions with the Taliban in Afghanistan and the Houthis in Yemen. In Syria, a notable shift in Russian rhetoric is evident, with HTS now being referred to in Russian media as an “armed opposition group” rather than a “terrorist organization.” This pragmatic approach extends to diplomatic symbols: within hours of Damascus’ fall, the Syrian embassy in Moscow replaced its flag with that of the opposition. Analysts suggest this adaptability could foster future collaboration between Moscow and HTS, grounded in mutual interests. Collaboration between Russia and HTS could benefit both sides. For HTS, such an arrangement may help secure international legitimacy, reduce dependence on Turkey, and counter U.S. support for Kurdish and tribal groups in northern and eastern Syria. For Russia, maintaining its influence in Syria would bolster its strategic presence in the region and support its broader geopolitical goals. Furthermore, analysts suggest Russia could act as a mediator between Syria and Israel, addressing complex issues such as territorial disputes over the Golan Heights and the destruction of remaining Syrian military capabilities. The European Union has expressed concern about Russia’s continued military presence in Syria. However, analysts argue that Moscow’s role could align with Europe’s broader security interests. The fall of the Assad regime has created new challenges for Syria, including state-building, managing territorial disputes, and addressing extremist threats. The release of political prisoners and individuals with potential links to radical groups raises security concerns for both the Middle East and Europe. This situation complicates Europe’s aspirations for the return of Syrian refugees and suggests a potential increase in migration pressures. In this context, Russia’s experience in counterterrorism and its potential to stabilize regions under HTS influence could contribute to regional stability, indirectly benefiting European security. The presence of Russian forces in Syria is not merely a matter of strategic interest for Moscow; it also has implications for the stability of the broader international community. As Syria navigates the challenges of rebuilding its governance structures and addressing regional tensions, Russia’s role could prove instrumental in shaping the country’s future.

Bitcoin Breaks Records: A Conversation with EMCD CEO, Michael Jerlis, on the Reasons Behind the Surge and the Future of the First Cryptocurrency
December 25, 2024 - (SeaPRwire) - Since mid-autumn 2024, Bitcoin has repeatedly surpassed its ATHs. On December 17, 2024, the first cryptocurrency set another record, soaring up to $108 000 and higher. We spoke with EMCD CEO Michael Jerlis about the reasons behind this surge, Bitcoin's future, the impact on the crypto market as a whole, and whether it's worth investing at its peak. Q1: How do you evaluate Bitcoin's current growth? Why now? A1: The record-breaking surge in Bitcoin is a clear testament to the strength of the cryptocurrency market. This impressive rise can be explained by several factors. Firstly, the US elections and Donald Trump's victory, coupled with his strong support for cryptocurrencies, acted as a catalyst. Additionally, his promise to create a 'Bitcoin Superpower' has significantly fueled interest among crypto investors. Secondly, the launch of Bitcoin-based exchange-traded funds in the US and the Federal Reserve's interest rate cuts provided a significant boost. These factors have created ideal conditions for a renewed wave of interest in the leading cryptocurrency. Q2: Why do you think investors are drawn to Bitcoin right now? A2: Many people are seeking alternatives to traditional assets in times of economic uncertainty. The threat of inflation and growing doubts about the US dollar as a reserve currency have solidified Bitcoin's reputation as 'digital gold.' Additionally, the halving that occurred in the spring of 2024 reduced the new coin supply, driving up demand. Now, we're witnessing a surge of major investors flooding the crypto market. Q3: Do you think Bitcoin's current rally marks the start of a long-term trend or just a short-term spike? Are we heading for a new ATH? A3: This surge isn't just a temporary spike – it's the beginning of a new long-term trend. The likelihood of further growth is very high, especially if the US establishes a strategic Bitcoin reserve. Many analysts are forecasting the $120 000 mark or even higher. Keep in mind that cryptocurrency remains a highly volatile asset. Investors should be prepared for temporary corrections along the way. Q4: How is Bitcoin's current growth affecting other cryptocurrencies? Can we expect similar records from Ethereum or other altcoins? A4: Bitcoin is undeniably the trendsetter of the crypto market. The current bullish trend has a positive ripple effect across the entire market. For instance, Ethereum, the second-largest cryptocurrency by market cap, recently hit $4 096. This is still not the ATH set by ETH back in 2021. This means there is still potential to go higher. This growth is also encouraging for altcoins, as it strengthens investor confidence in the market, potentially paving the way for new milestones across the board. Q5: What advice would you give to beginners looking to invest in cryptocurrency now? A5: Start by learning the crypto basics. Remember that cryptocurrency is a long-term investment, and be prepared for volatility. Only invest what you're ready to lose, and always diversify your portfolio. Additionally, choose reliable platforms and wallets to store your assets. For example, EMCD develops products that simplify access to cryptocurrency for both beginners and professionals alike. Q6: What do you think the future holds for the cryptocurrency market? Can we expect new technologies to appear? A6: The future of crypto lies in widespread blockchain integration across various industries. Today, it's used in finance, art, music, and gaming. In the coming years, technologies like smart contracts and DeFi will continue expanding their influence. Bitcoin's role as a hedge and a store of value will grow stronger. It's not far-fetched to imagine entire countries adopting Bitcoin as a reserve asset in the future. Q7: Is it a good time to invest in Bitcoin now, or is it too late to enter the market at these levels? A7: This is undoubtedly one of the most common questions in the crypto world right now. The answer depends on your investment strategy. For those seeking quick profits, it might be wise to hold off for now, as Bitcoin is at its peak, and price corrections are likely. However, for long-term investors, it's definitely not too late to enter the market. Q8: What advice do you have for those planning to invest in Bitcoin now? A8: My advice is simple – invest only what you're prepared to hold for the long term. Remember that volatility is part of the game, but with the right approach, Bitcoin can become one of the best investments in your portfolio. Also, don't forget to diversify your investments. Bitcoin is undoubtedly the driving force of the crypto market, but it's not the only opportunity. Take a closer look at other assets that are also showing impressive performance. For example, until recently, few people paid attention to XRP and SUI, which suddenly surged and became the talk of the community. It's essential to identify similar potential projects in the future. Q9: And finally, what would you like to say to crypto enthusiasts and those just starting to explore this field? A9: Cryptocurrency is a part of a technological revolution. In this fast-evolving crypto world, it's crucial to keep learning and experimenting, not just following trends but understanding their essence. And always remember: the future belongs to technology and innovation.
