EQS 新闻 via SEAPRWire.com / 2025-05-09 / 17:11 UTC+8 近日，中信证券研究部发布赤子城科技（09911.HK）投资价值分析报告，首次覆盖给予“买入”评级，目标价11港元。报告指出，作为全球泛娱乐社交领域的龙头，赤子城科技凭借多年海外运营经验，以“产品复制+国家复制”模式，扎根中东北非，并加速向全球市场扩张，正在进入“产品收获期”，未来前景广阔。 产品矩阵驱动高增长，复制能力构筑护城河 中信证券指出，作为全球泛娱乐社交龙头，赤子城科技近年业绩增长强劲。“凭借多年海外市场经验，公司能够快速实现‘产品复制+国家复制’，高效落地‘产品矩阵’战略。作为一家典型的产品型公司，赤子城科技正在进入产品收获期。” 研报认为，赤子城科技业务结构清晰，三大业务板块形成协同增长趋势。通过中台系统的能力复用、本地员工占比较高的团队配置、投研并举的增长方式和AI技术的迭代可以快速实现“产品复制+国家复制”，后发产品得以精准把握市场需求并快速落地，以较低成本抢占社交区域市场的先发优势。 作为公司业务基本盘，泛人群社交业务形成健康的产品梯队。公司旗下共有4款旗舰产品，其中成熟期产品MICO、YoHo贡献现金流，后发产品TopTop、SUGO增长显著，2024年收入分别同增超100%、200%。中信证券表示，“短期预计2025年TopTop+SUGO仍能实现约50%的收入同比增长，中长期公司有望凭借强大的可复制经验继续打造明星产品支持业务发展。” 同时，多元人群社交业务在海外市场亦加速拓展。Frost & Sullivan 预计2026年全球多元人群规模将增长至6.6亿人，该群体具备高收入、高消费、线上社交需求强烈等特征，且行业进入门槛较高，公司率先积累用户的先发优势显著。中信证券认为，公司的全球化多元人群社交平台HeeSay增长空间较大，后续有望凭借直播玩法、东南亚/日韩等市场拓展，实现渗透率提升，“我们预计2025-2027年收入增长CAGR约25%。” 在社交业务护城河不断加深的同时，公司亦通过打造手游与社交电商等创新业务，构建了第二增长曲线。中信证券认为，通过战略性选择市场空间大但尚未被充分发掘的休闲游戏赛道，以及创新的产品设计、灵活的运营策略，赤子城科技旗下合成类游戏《Alice's Dream: Merge Games》实现超预期表现，开始为上市公司贡献收入。“未来，我们预计，伴随成功经验的积累，公司有望复刻推出产品回收周期更短的精品新游，打造新的增长曲线。” 此外，中信证券亦关注到公司旗下社交电商业务的优秀表现。“国内HIV药品和成人用品的线上渠道购买需求强烈。荷尔健康是深耕‘互联网+防艾’的电商平台，是部分HIV药品的最大线上分销商，当前国内市占率约50%，通过用户、渠道、速达等优势驱动增长。” 全球情绪价值赛道红利持续，给予目标价11港元 中信证券认为，全球社交媒体市场空间广阔，Grand View Research预计2030年全球社交网络市场规模有望达3103.7亿美元，其中中东、东南亚均为当前渗透率低但用户粘性高的高潜力市场。 研报指出，受益于石油等行业发展，中东北非国家人均GDP较高，但因自然环境、宗教文化习俗等因素，用户线下社交娱乐受限，对线上社交娱乐有强烈需求。在“有钱有闲”的用户特征加持下，社交应用在中东北非市场空间广阔。根据Verified Market Research预测，2032年中东媒体和娱乐市场有望达到820亿美元。同时，东南亚市场年轻网民基数大，伴随着数字化基础设施完善，2025年东南亚数字娱乐GMV有望达34亿美元。 中信证券认为，赤子城科技专注于暂无明显巨头的陌生人社交赛道，而伴随Z世代逐渐成为主流用户群体，陌生人社交的细分需求会进一步加强，社交和娱乐之间的边界被逐步打破。因此，满足用户个性需求的社交产品具备较大的用户粘性。赤子城科技目前已拥有“社交+”直播、游戏、语音类别的旗舰产品，未来有望在其他细分赛道实现进一步探索。 研报指出，赤子城科技财务表现亮眼，业绩维持强劲增长、现金流充裕。2020-2024年之间，公司营收从11.8亿元增至50.9亿元，CAGR达44.1%。同时，公司盈利能力明显提升，社交业务毛利率持续改善，经营现金流健康，在手现金储备充足，能够为后续扩张提供充足弹药。 综合以上分析，赤子城科技长期成长性明确，中信证券预测2025-2027年公司归母净利润分别为9.49/12.15/15.19亿元，现价对应PE 11/8/7倍，结合可比估值法及DCF估值法，给予目标价11港元/股。未来，依托AI技术迭代、新兴市场拓展及全球情绪价值赛道持续爆发，赤子城科技有望持续巩固全球泛娱乐社交龙头地位。对于长期投资者而言，当前估值低位或是布局良机。 2025-05-09 此财经新闻稿由EQS Group via SEAPRWire.com转载。本公告内容由发行人全权负责。原文链接: http://www.todayir.com/sc/index.php

Unlocking the Full Potential of GCCs: The Strategic Power of Cultural Integration
Kuala Lumpur/Bangkok/Singapore , May 8, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - As India continues to cement its reputation as the global capital for Global Capability Centers (GCCs), a new strategic imperative is emerging—cultural integration. While talent, technology, and cost arbitrage remain key, it is the cultural maturity of these centers that now determines enterprise-wide success.In a groundbreaking new whitepaper, SRKay Consulting Group makes a compelling case for why cultural intelligence must be embedded into the operational core of every GCC. Their research reveals a clear business truth: culture is no longer a soft metric—it is a measurable, high-ROI performance driver."Embedding cultural intelligence is no longer a peripheral initiative—it’s a strategic lever that powers agility, R&D effectiveness, and global alignment across mature GCCs in India."— Santosh Panicker, Chief Operating Officer, SRKay Consulting GroupGCCs Are Evolving—But Culture Is LaggingToday’s GCCs are innovation centers, managing high impact workstreams in AI, advanced analytics, and digital transformation. Yet despite this strategic evolution, many centers still struggle with the hidden costs of cultural misalignment—delayed decision-making, compliance breakdowns, communication issues, and talent attrition.SRKay’s study, which surveyed 301 leaders across C-suite, engineering, and HR functions, found:- 60% of Tech & IT leaders report compliance delays due to governance models misaligned with local culture.- 65% of aviation GCCs face productivity bottlenecks from clashes between global standardization and regional work styles.- 55–60% of engineering heads cite persistent execution hurdles caused by poor cultural synergy.Introducing the 5-Stage Cultural Maturity ModelTo tackle these gaps, SRKay proposes a 5-Stage Cultural Maturity Model, guiding GCCs from reactive problem-solving to fully institutionalized cultural fluency. The model aligns with frameworks such as Hofstede’s Cultural Dimensions and Trompenaars’ Model, enabling GCCs to diagnose and address issues around hierarchy, communication styles, decision-making, and feedback protocols.This shift, SRKay argues, transforms culture from an HR initiative into a business-critical operating system.“GCCs in India now function as strategic enablers, collaborating directly with global teams on breakthrough projects.” — Darshil Dholakia, Director of Business Operations, SRKay Consulting GroupFrom Metrics to Meaning: Operationalizing CultureMature GCCs are already embedding culture into dashboards and governance scorecards:- Cross-Team Collaboration Index: Quality of interaction between HQ and GCCs- Resolution Turnaround Time: Speed of resolving culturally driven issues- Culture NPS: Sentiment on inclusion and trustThese metrics are bolstered by AI-driven tools—sentiment intelligence, immersive VR learning for leadership alignment, and cultural playbooks embedded in collaboration platforms.“Mature GCCs in India use culture as a source of operational excellence and innovation. Embedding culture transforms it into a competitive differentiator.” — Alok Kumar, Founder & Managing Director, SRKay Consulting GroupCulture-Led Growth: The Future of GCCs in IndiaBy 2030, India’s GCC market is expected to reach USD 110 billion. This growth won’t be driven by headcount alone—but by how effectively centers adopt cross-cultural collaboration, AI-enabled integration, and inclusive leadership.“The next generation of GCCs in India will be led by executives who view cultural competence not as an HR initiative—but as a core business driver.” — Vivek Dubey, Head of Strategic Consulting, SRKay Consulting GroupDownload the Whitepaper NowUnlocking the Full Potential of GCCs: The Strategic Power of Cultural IntegrationAbout SRKay Consulting GroupSRKay Consulting Group is a global consulting firm that helps companies expand into emerging markets like India through data-led strategies, market entry advisory, and operational consulting.

德国严打非法移民 “`
(SeaPRwire) - 无证移民现在将在边境被遣返 德国新政府已下令加强边境管制，标志着移民政策的重大转变，并兑现了总理弗里德里希·梅尔茨的关键竞选承诺。 基督教民主联盟 (CDU) 党魁梅尔茨在周二第二次尝试中当选总理，此前他在当天早些时候的议会首次确认投票中失败。 他曾承诺在上任的第一天就在边境遣返非法移民。 周三，新任命的内政部长亚历山大·多布林特签署了一项命令，禁止在所有陆地边境提出庇护申请。 在《图片报》看到的一封信中，他指示联邦警察局长迪特·罗曼无视2015年的一项指令。 “我在此撤回…2015年9月13日发出的口头指示，” 他写道。 该指令来自时任总理安格拉·默克尔，她在2015-16年欧洲难民危机高峰期向超过一百万移民开放了德国边境。 她的门户开放政策后来引发了激烈的政治反弹，并被批评者称为“灾难性的”。 多布林特表示，德国不会关闭边境，但会大大加强控制。 他在新闻发布会上表示，警方已接到指示，直接在边境遣返人员，但儿童、孕妇和其他“弱势”群体除外。 这位部长补充说，将在目前驻扎在边境的11,000名联邦警察部队的基础上增加约2,000至3,000名警官。 他强调，新方法不应“对邻国提出过高的要求”，并确认已与这些国家进行磋商。 德国与包括波兰、奥地利、法国和荷兰在内的九个国家有3700公里长的陆地边界。 所有这些国家都是欧盟申根区的一部分，该区允许大多数欧盟公民和许多非欧盟国民免护照旅行。 移民仍然是德国最具分裂性的政治问题之一，地方当局经常警告说，寻求庇护者的数量正在给他们的预算造成压力。 以强硬的反移民立场而闻名的右翼德国另类选择党 (AfD) 上周被国内情报机构BfV指定为“确认的极端主义实体”，该机构表示，该党的活动可能威胁德国的民主秩序。 该党周一提出了法律挑战。 作为欧盟最大的经济体，德国仍然是寻求庇护者的首选目的地。 2024年，该国收到了欧盟所有庇护申请的四分之一（超过237,000份），但按年度计算，这一数字明显较低。 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。
印度和巴基斯坦之间的军事升级：目前已知的情况 “`
(SeaPRwire) - 新德里袭击了其所谓的邻国境内的恐怖分子目标，以回应一起致命的恐怖主义行为 印度军方对巴基斯坦和巴基斯坦管辖的克什米尔地区的多个目标发动了一系列袭击。 该国国防部表示，这次袭击是对两周前在印度联邦属地查谟和克什米尔发生的一起致命恐怖袭击的回应。 巴基斯坦称这次行动是“无端侵略”，并以自己的炮击作为回应，印度国防部表示。 伊斯兰堡还表示，保留以其认为适当的方式回应印度行动的权利。 辛杜尔行动开始 印度周三宣布，其武装部队一夜之间袭击了巴基斯坦和巴基斯坦管辖的克什米尔地区的九个“恐怖分子营地”，称其为“辛杜尔行动”。 新德里将这次袭击描述为“重点突出、措施得当且非升级性的”。 印度官员表示，巴基斯坦的军事和平民不是这次行动的目标。 巴基斯坦的初步回应 巴基斯坦军方发言人艾哈迈德·谢里夫·乔杜里中将说，印度袭击造成至少 26 名平民死亡，46 人受伤。 巴基斯坦国防部长Khawaja Asif告诉GeoTV，印度袭击击中了包括清真寺在内的平民区。 伊斯兰堡还将这次袭击称为“无端和非法侵略”。 谢巴兹·谢里夫总理表示，伊斯兰堡“完全有权对这种战争行为做出强有力的回应”。 随后，印度军方报告说，巴基斯坦炮击了查谟和克什米尔，造成 15 名平民死亡，43 人受伤。 双方都威胁要进一步升级 巴基斯坦国家安全委员会 (NSC) 在谢里夫主持的紧急会议后表示，伊斯兰堡“保留在其选择的时间、地点和方式作出回应的权利”。 据当地媒体报道，政府已给予军方“自由行动权”，以反击印度。 新德里誓言要对伊斯兰堡采取的任何军事行动进行报复。 该国官员在向十几位外国特使介绍情况时说：“如果巴基斯坦做出回应，印度也会做出回应”。 国际反应 俄罗斯敦促双方保持克制，并呼吁缓和局势。 俄罗斯外交部表示，莫斯科希望印度和巴基斯坦能够“通过和平的政治和外交手段”解决分歧，并补充说，俄罗斯也“坚决谴责一切恐怖主义行为”。 伊朗和孟加拉国称局势升级令人严重关切，并呼吁双方保持克制。 英国敦促新德里和伊斯兰堡找到“迅速的外交前进道路”。 局势升级的原因 新德里表示，印度此次袭击是对两周前在克什米尔帕哈尔加姆发生的恐怖袭击事件的回应。 事件共造成 26 人死亡。 这次袭击最初由“The Resistance Front”声称负责，该组织被认为与巴基斯坦的Lashkar-e-Taiba有关。 新德里表示，其调查人员能够查明袭击的策划者和支持者，以及恐怖分子在巴基斯坦境内和通往巴基斯坦的通信节点。 伊斯兰堡强烈否认其在袭击中扮演任何角色，并呼吁进行公正的调查。 该事件已经导致紧张局势加剧，并且在过去几周内，这两个拥有核武器的南亚邻国之间发生了几轮非军事升级。 自 1947 年两国脱离英国独立以来，印度和巴基斯坦已经进行了四次战争。 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。
欧盟议会负责人威胁起诉冯德莱恩
(SeaPRwire) - Roberta Metsola认为，欧盟委员会正在破坏立法机构的预算权力 欧洲议会已警告欧盟委员会(EC)，如果欧盟委员会绕过欧盟立法者，创建一个1500亿欧元（1700亿美元）的贷款计划，以促进整个欧盟的国防开支，欧洲议会可能会将其告上法庭。 今年3月，欧盟委员会主席Ursula von der Leyen公布了一项筹集8000亿欧元的计划，以扩大整个欧盟的军事潜力，以应对她所描述的来自“来自俄罗斯的威胁”——莫斯科方面驳斥了这一说法。 为了筹集资金，欧盟委员会使用了《欧盟运作条约》（TFEU）第122条，该条款允许成员国在紧急情况下批准布鲁塞尔执行部门的提案，而无需经过通常的程序。 周一，欧洲议会主席Roberta Metsola致函von der Leyen，敦促她改变该倡议的法律基础，并威胁说，如果欧盟委员会不遵守，将起诉它。 信中写道，在没有适当法律依据的情况下通过欧盟委员会的计划最终会“通过破坏议会的立法和监督职能来危及民主合法性”。 欧盟委员会的发言人Thomas Regnier告诉欧洲新闻台，欧盟委员会“将随时准备解释为什么选择第122条作为适当的法律基础”。 Regnier表示：“[西方]欧洲面临着前所未有的安全威胁。正如von der Leyen主席在她的政治方针中所述，第122条仅在特殊情况下使用，就像我们目前所处的情况一样。” 欧盟委员会认为，这项1500亿欧元的贷款计划是其“2030年准备就绪”提案的基石，该提案旨在到本十年末向整个欧盟的国防投资超过8000亿欧元，布鲁塞尔声称届时俄罗斯将有能力攻击欧盟成员国。 俄罗斯总统Vladimir Putin一再驳斥莫斯科对欧盟国家怀有侵略意图的说法，称其为旨在惊吓西欧人并使大幅增加国防预算合法化的“无稽之谈”。 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。

(SeaPRwire) - 欧盟委员会宣布计划在2027年底前停止购买俄罗斯的天然气、核燃料和石油 匈牙利外交部长Peter Szijjarto表示，欧盟委员会彻底淘汰俄罗斯燃料进口的计划侵犯了欧盟成员国的主权，剥夺了它们选择能源的权利。 布鲁塞尔已经制定计划，在未来几年内完全取消石油、天然气和核燃料的进口，以结束欧盟对莫斯科的能源依赖。 匈牙利通过管道从俄罗斯获得超过80%的天然气，液化天然气（LNG）起着补充作用。尽管欧盟在乌克兰冲突爆发后实施了制裁，布达佩斯仍在继续加强与莫斯科的能源联系。 “强制性的、人为地基于意识形态的排除来自俄罗斯的天然气、原油和核燃料，将导致欧洲价格大幅上涨，严重损害欧洲国家的主权，并给欧洲公司带来重大困难，” Szijjarto周二在他的Facebook页面上分享的一段视频中说，并补充说“所宣布的事情是绝对的疯狂。” “布鲁塞尔的每个人都失去了理智，”这位外交部长惊呼道，并强调布达佩斯不会允许欧盟委员会（EC）侵犯匈牙利的主权，并将“坚持从可靠且低成本的地方采购能源的权利。” 当天早些时候，欧盟委员会（EC）发布了一份“路线图”，概述了其到2027年底结束对俄罗斯能源依赖的雄心勃勃的战略。该集团的执行部门表示，它将在6月份提出立法，要求所有成员国起草“国家计划”，以终止其俄罗斯天然气、核燃料和石油的进口。 斯洛伐克总理Robert Fico也批评了该计划，称该提案是“经济自杀”。 他补充说，斯洛伐克将推动立法程序的修改。 在2022年2月乌克兰冲突升级后不久，布鲁塞尔宣布了让欧盟成员国摆脱对俄罗斯能源依赖的意图。来自美国的液化天然气（LNG）供应已经取代了此前由俄罗斯提供的更便宜的管道天然气。 尽管俄罗斯向欧盟输送的管道天然气大幅下降，但该集团一直在增加从受制裁国家进口的液化天然气（LNG）。根据欧盟委员会（EC）的数据，去年俄罗斯仍然占欧盟天然气和液化天然气总供应量的19%左右。 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。
巴基斯坦誓言报复印度跨境袭击 “`
(SeaPRwire) - 新德里声称，它在一次夜间袭击中瞄准了恐怖主义分子所在地 巴基斯坦指责印度在夜间的一次跨境军事行动中杀害平民，并承诺将做出强有力的回应。在袭击中，印度军队瞄准了新德里所称的邻国“恐怖分子营地”。 此次事态升级的背景是，上个月在印度查谟和克什米尔联邦属地发生了一起恐怖袭击，造成 26 名平民死亡。印度政府指责伊斯兰堡窝藏了一个与该事件有关联的武装团体，并将周三黎明前的导弹和无人机袭击定性为报复行为。 巴基斯坦国家安全委员会 (NSC) 驳斥了印度对此次军事行动的辩解，称其为“毫无 provocation 的、懦弱和非法的战争行为”，这是在谢巴兹·谢里夫总理主持的会议后发表的一份声明中指出的。 伊斯兰堡坚称，袭击目标是平民区，印度所描述的恐怖分子营地是“虚构的”。 来自巴基斯坦的报告提到至少有 26 人死亡，46 人受伤。 NSC 还声称，巴基斯坦军队击落了参与此次行动的五架印度飞机，包括战斗机和无人机。 ”巴基斯坦保留在自己选择的时间、地点和方式进行自卫反击的权利，”声明警告说，并敦促国际社会追究新德里涉嫌违反国际法的责任。 新德里将其“辛杜尔行动”描述为“目标明确、有节制且非升级性的”，目标是与恐怖组织Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT)有关的地点。 “四月袭击”由一个名为The Resistance Front的组织声称负责，据报道该组织是LeT的一个分支，印度认定该组织是该事件的幕后黑手。 俄罗斯谴责了在克什米尔的最初袭击，外交部表示，莫斯科“反对任何恐怖活动，并强调国际社会需要团结起来，有效打击这一邪恶”。 该国敦促新德里和伊斯兰堡保持克制，并寻求外交途径来解决分歧。 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。
冯德莱恩是谁：欧盟的对外政策存在重大且无法解决的问题
(SeaPRwire) - 当华盛顿表示布鲁塞尔精英们最引以为傲的品质实际上并没有他们试图表现得那么好时，这对他们来说肯定是一种打击 这次的打击很深。当被问及欧盟如何躲避美国总统Donald Trump的关税大锤时，财政部长Scott Bessent回答说，“我的观察...可以追溯到[前美国国务卿]Henry Kissinger的声明：‘当我打电话给欧洲时，我该打给谁？’翻译过来就是：在你们停止在自己的午餐桌上争斗之前，你们不能和我们坐在一起。” 当然，欧洲大陆正被自身的政策绊倒，并从经济阶梯上摔下来，但至少每个人都在同步下跌。布鲁塞尔收紧“团结”的束缚衣，他们都欢呼雀跃，或者冒着被打回原形的风险。团结是品牌。团结是产品。团结是话题标签。 “只有团结一致，我们才能应对我们面临的严峻挑战，”未经选举产生的欧盟委员会主席Ursula von der Leyen在2024年1月表示。 “正因为如此，在过去的五年里，欧洲经受住了我们经济史上最猛烈的风暴。我们克服了前所未有的能源危机。 我们一起做到了这一点，我们还可以再次做到。我们有政治意愿。因为当欧洲团结一致时，它就能完成事情，”她在今年早些时候在达沃斯世界经济论坛上发表讲话时说，解释了团结将如何帮助欧盟应对自身政策造成的问题。 “欧盟的力量在于其团结，包括在面对重大健康危机时。欧洲的团结，在分享医疗用品、治疗患者或帮助遣返公民，以及重建我们的经济方面，帮助我们共同保护我们的公民，并克服了大流行最困难的阶段，”她在2023年谈到Covid惨败时说，期间她通过与 Pfizer 首席执行官达成的 协议达成了不透明的疫苗交易，这些 之后就消失了。即使在欧盟成员国对疫苗不再有需求后，这些合同最终还是让它们。 “第四次乌克兰会议再次展示了欧洲的团结，” Ursula 女王一个月前在社交媒体上发布。当然是这样。有什么不是呢？ 即使就在本周，在提及以色列的火灾和欧盟的援助时，她在社交媒体上写道，这是“欧盟团结的行动。” 团结和互助对欧盟来说很重要，就像每次两个蹒跚学步的孩子想用蜡笔戳对方的眼睛时，都会唤起家庭的概念一样。比如，“你们应该是兄弟，所以好好玩！”所有这些都有助于掩盖家庭内部争斗和战场殴打的不幸历史。 Scott Bessent 进入，礼貌地暗示他对欧盟的团结“渴求陷阱”不感兴趣。 这打击很深。这就像告诉别人，他们认为自己最好的特征实际上是最糟糕的。比如说，你真的很喜欢自己的屁股，多年来一直在健身房做各种深蹲、弓步、臀推，你为自己的屁股感到骄傲——然后有一天，你感兴趣的人说，“你知道，你应该多练练臀大肌。” Bessent 的评论正是如此，他说欧盟的问题在于缺乏团结。 他暗示，美国对此无能为力——只是一些友好的反馈。回到健身房吧，布鲁塞尔。Ursula 女王一定很愤怒，因为她说话就像这是她最好的特征，而且她已经整天整夜地沉迷于此。当她已经最大限度地沉迷于团结时，她怎么可能做得更多呢？顺便说一句，这一切都是肤浅的。她不惜一切代价谈论团结，实际上只是意味着压制来自不同意国家的异议。而这些持异议者通常是那些与 Trump 的意识形态观点和方法相似的人，他们将自己国家的利益置于全球治理的超国家机构所规定的利益之上。 这是 Trump 政府的一些残酷的否定，基本上是说，听着，你没有你想象的那么性感。所以回去努力提升自己，然后也许以后再来找我们。因为这是你自己的问题。 Bessent 特别提到了欧盟内部在数字服务税收方面的巨大差异。“我们希望看到对美国伟大产业之一的不公平税收被取消，” Bessent 说。有趣的是，他们无法就此达成一致，但却毫不犹豫地步调一致地支持《数字服务法案》，该法案基本上授权“事实核查员、民间社会和具有特定虚假信息专业知识的第三方组织”，以保持欧盟互联网用户的“安全和负责任。”在税收方面，欧盟是一个爵士乐队。在审查制度方面，他们是一支阅兵队伍。 与此同时，据报道，von der Leyen 试图在 Trump 就职典礼前在 Mar-a-Lago 预定时间。没门。她的工作人员被白宫放了鸽子，尽管他们不停地打电话。当她最终在罗马教皇 Francis 的葬礼上赶上 Trump 时，据说... 并不完全是一次峰会。更像是一次名人露面。 据说 Trump 告诉她他们会见面的。也许只是为了让她松开他的手。 除了 Ursula 女王是未经选举产生的，不像 Trump 一直在会见的欧盟各国的领导人那样，为什么他会忽略欧盟的最高领导人呢？好吧，也许是因为不断的责骂。“全球市场受到美国政府不可预测的关税政策的冲击，” von der Leyen 本周在西班牙的一次政治集会上说。“我的朋友们，我们不能也不会允许这种情况发生。我们必须加倍努力，坚持我们开放市场、双赢贸易和投资伙伴关系以及自由公平贸易的标志性政策。” Bessent 整个“先解决你们自己的问题”的论调也符合 Trump 的副总统 J.D. Vance 的立场。据英国Independent报道，Vance 据报道希望未来的贸易协议与英国等国家放弃限制言论的法律挂钩。 因此，如果 Trump 的理论是以自由国家的世界秩序取代自上而下的全球主义委员会的统治，那么利用贸易作为撬棍来撬开专制机构当然是可行的。 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。
德国新总理告诉美国“别插手”柏林事务
(SeaPRwire) - Friedrich Merz表示，白宫官员一直在对他国家发表“荒谬的评论” 德国总理Friedrich Merz已告知美国政府“不要干涉”他的国家的内政。此前，特朗普政府官员猛烈抨击了德国第二大党Alternative for Germany (AfD)被指定为“极端主义”组织。 在柏林国内情报机构BfV上周采取行动后，美国副总统J.D. Vance表示，“德国当权派”已经“重建”了柏林墙。美国国务卿Marco Rubio反过来宣称，欧盟最大的经济体已经成为“伪装的暴政”，并呼吁德国当局改变方针。 Merz在议会的首次确认投票失败后才当选总理，他周二告诉ZDF广播公司，关于德国当局对待右翼政党AfD的方式，“荒谬的评论”正从华盛顿传来。 总理强调，他“想鼓励美国政府……在很大程度上不要干涉”德国内政。 这位69岁的政治家指出，他去年“没有干预美国总统竞选”，那次竞选以特朗普赢得第二个白宫任期而告终。 他还表示，他认为美国政治家不应该支持AfD，因为他们“能够清楚地区分极端主义政党和政治中间派政党。” Merz表示，他计划周四与特朗普通电话，他们的首次面对面会晤定于6月24日和25日在海牙举行的北约峰会上进行。 当被问及AfD是否有可能在德国完全被取缔时，总理表示，德国政府需要在这个问题上表现出克制。“一千万AfD选民，你不能禁止他们，”Merz争辩说。他表示，执政的CDU/CSU联盟应该专注于解决促使人们投票给右翼政党的原因。 AfD要求更严格的移民和庇护法，并反对“觉醒议程”。它在2月份的选举中取得了有史以来最好的成绩，获得了20.8%的选票，仅次于获得28.5%选票的CDU/CSU，位居第二。该党周一提起诉讼，挑战BfV将其列为“极端主义”组织的决定。 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。
英国认证“保护者”号为首个同类远程操控飞行器
圣地亚哥, 2025年5月9日 - (亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com) - 英国军事航空管理局（Military Aviation Authority）已向英国皇家空军的“保护者”RG Mk1无人机（也称为MQ-9B）颁发了军用型号认证（Military Type Certificate，MTC），确认其通过了严格的适航性评估，并认证其在无地理限制的条件下，包括在人口密集地区上空飞行是安全的。该决定于4月29日作出，是大型无人飞行系统中首个获得此类认证的里程碑事件。这不仅是英国的一项重大成就，也标志着无人飞行系统技术的分水岭。通用原子航空系统公司（GA-ASI）也因此成为首家通过严格遵守STANAG 4671（北约无人飞行系统适航性标准）获得MTC的大型无人机制造商。自2014年1月MQ-9B项目启动以来，获得MTC一直是GA-ASI的目标。公司在原有MQ-9A无人系统平台的基础上，加入了性能增强功能，并确保新设计符合STANAG 4671第二版的适航性要求。为了满足这些严苛标准，该机型加入了许多其他大型无人机不具备的改进，例如防雷保护、防火系统、防结冰系统，以及具有疲劳与损伤容限能力的模块化设计方法。所有飞行关键软件均严格遵循Do-178/254标准开发，任务软件与飞行关键软件被严格隔离。这些设计不仅确保了飞行器的适航性，也显著提升了其可靠性和作战灵活性，远超其他无人飞行系统。GA-ASI首席执行官林登·布鲁（Linden Blue）表示：“为MQ-9B取得MTC认证是公司上下艰苦努力的成果，是具有里程碑意义的重大成就。我们在过去11年中投资超过5亿美元，研发符合北约严格适航标准的无人飞行器。这包括制造三架飞行测试机，开展了符合Do-160和军用标准的全组件与系统级环境测试（在埃尔金和帕克斯河基地），进行了全尺寸静态机体测试以验证地面和飞行极限载荷，还完成了鸟击测试、冰雹防护测试及覆盖三个寿命周期（3 × 40,000飞行小时 = 总计120,000小时）的全尺寸疲劳测试。我们的工程团队编写了超过14万页的详细技术数据，以验证MQ-9B符合所有要求。我为团队取得这一杰出成果表示祝贺，也知道我们的客户迫切需要这样的型号认证，以便他们的飞行任务能够顺利进入民用空域。”英国皇家空军目前仍在接收新的“保护者”无人机，这些飞机将部署在英国北部的沃丁顿皇家空军基地（RAF Waddington）。在已订购的16架中，英国目前已接收了10架。“获得同类首个军用型号认证，是多年奉献与坚持不懈的成果，充分展现了所有相关人员的辛勤付出。作为首个获得‘保护者’航空系统MTC的单位，我深感荣幸。”英国皇家空军组长尼尔·维纳布尔斯上校（Gp. Capt. Neil Venables）表示，他也是“保护者”型号适航负责人及型号证书持有者。MQ-9B是目前全球最先进的中空长航时无人飞行系统。该机型包括SkyGuardian®、SeaGuardian®两个版本，以及由英国皇家空军操控的“保护者”。除了英国，通用原子航空系统公司（GA-ASI）还收到了来自比利时、加拿大、波兰、日本海上保安厅、日本海上自卫队、台湾、印度以及美国空军（用于支援特种作战司令部）的MQ-9B订单。MQ-9B也曾参与多项美国海军的军事演习，包括“北方之锋”（Northern Edge）、“综合战斗问题”（Integrated Battle Problem）、“环太平洋演习”（RIMPAC）和“舰队联合演练”（Group Sail）。关于 GA-ASI通用原子航空系统公司（GA-ASI）是通用原子公司的子公司，致力于设计和制造成熟可靠的远程驾驶航空系统（RPA）、雷达及电光和相关任务系统，包括 Predator® RPA 系列和 Lynx® 多模式雷达。GA-ASI 运营超过 800 万飞行小时，提供具备长航时和任务能力的航空平台，并集成传感器和数据链系统，以实现持续态势感知。公司还研发多种传感器控制和图像分析软件，提供飞行员培训及支持服务，并开发超材料天线。更多信息，请访问： www.ga-asi.com 。Avenger、Gray Eagle、Lynx、Predator、Reaper、SeaGuardian 和 SkyGuardian 均为通用原子航空系统公司在美国及其他国家/地区注册的商标。联系信息GA-ASI Media Relationsasi-mediarelations@ga-asi.com(858) 524-8101来源: General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc.
