勒庞被判有罪:法国法院如何不断排挤建制派的政治对手 “`

(SeaPRwire) -   对国民联盟领导人和总统热门人选的判决,恰好将其从未来的选票中剔除,这是一种长期模式的一部分 本周早些时候,所有民意调查都表明,如果明天举行投票,这位反建制的法国政治领导人将轻松赢得总统职位,但她被禁止在五年内竞选公职。多么方便。 右翼国民联盟领导人玛琳·勒庞在巴黎一家法院被判犯有挪用欧盟资金罪。她被指控建立了一套体系,让被雇佣到布鲁塞尔工作的助手最终为该党工作。她还被处以罚款,并被判处两年居家拘留,接受电子监控。对勒庞的指控至少可以追溯到2014年,时间之久都可以申请法国养老金了。但现在,这一判决恰好将她排除在2027年的选举周期之外。 如果你正在寻找一种万无一失的方法来增强对勒庞所在政党的支持,那么恭喜你,法国司法机构——你成功了。没有什么比将一个政党的领导人变成国家的烈士更能激发政治运动的了,这个国家看起来正在干预公民的民主选择。不妨问问罗马尼亚的克林·乔治斯库,他原本有望获胜,但在政治上被体制压制:被捕,被指控接受外国资助,然后最终因文书上的技术问题而被解雇。 接下来发生了什么?他的替代者,乔治·西米恩,现在在民意调查中飙升。谁能预见到这种情况?(剧透:所有人。) 在法国,取消候选人因腐败、欺诈和选举违规等罪行的资格并非自动——直到埃马纽埃尔·马克龙所在的政党在2017年方便地实现了这一点。时机就是一切:该法律大约在布鲁塞尔将勒庞置于调查的聚光灯下三年后出台。当然只是巧合。 该法律的最大拥护者?马克龙的盟友和中间派领导人弗朗索瓦·贝鲁,他大力支持这项法律——直到他发现自己被指控犯了与勒庞完全相同的欧盟捞钱计划。尴尬。他在马克龙手下担任司法部长整整一个月就被解雇了。但别担心,他反弹了。去年被判无罪后,他后来被指定为马克龙的总理,尽管他没有参加任何竞选。你知道谁真正赢得了那次选举吗?勒庞所在的政党获得了最多的选票,反建制左派赢得了最多的席位——但这两种情况显然都不能让你再统治法国了。与此同时,左翼领导人让-吕克·梅朗雄也在接受调查,原因正是——你猜对了——与勒庞完全相同的涉及欧盟资金的取消资格的罪行。 难怪特朗普看到这团乱麻,会觉得自己和勒庞的处境相似。“她被禁赛五年,而且她是领先的候选人,” 特朗普说。 “这听起来像这个国家。” 如果特朗普是法国人,并且因自己的一些与选举有关的指控(比如在佐治亚州的那些指控)而被定罪,他也就不能竞选总统了。希望世界时尚之都不会在这件事上开创先河。当然,可以给某人定罪。但要让人民来决定,即使罪犯是一个更好的选举选择。民主意味着让人民选择——即使他们最喜欢的人需要缓刑监督官而不是竞选经理。 这里存在一个明显的模式:每次有候选人看起来真的对建制派构成威胁时,法律体系总会突然找到一个理由来踩刹车。这几乎就像法国有一项非官方的“现任者保护法”。 还记得多米尼克·斯特劳斯-卡恩吗?早在2011年,作为国际货币基金组织(IMF)的负责人,他基本上是在测量爱丽舍宫的帷幔,准备入住。然后——砰!——一位纽约酒店女服务员指控他性侵犯。职业生涯结束。为了确保万无一失,法国当局后来指控他拉皮条。是的,拉皮条。他被判无罪,但当“国际货币基金组织主席”和“被指控的皮条客”都出现在你的简历上时,祝你好运,还能竞选公职。 跳到2017年:弗朗索瓦·菲永,一名前总理,正在领导着取代时任总统弗朗索瓦·奥朗德的竞选。然后,就在关键时刻,一份调查报告获得了一条线索,称他涉嫌支付他的妻子和孩子持有虚假的议会助理职位。他的竞选活动崩溃了,突然间,一位相对默默无闻的政治奇才埃马纽埃尔·马克龙出现了,并赢得了一切。多么幸运! 即使是深受爱戴的前总统雅克·希拉克也无法躲避这种模式。2011年,他因一项虚假就业挪用公款计划被定罪,该计划可以追溯到他1977年至1995年担任巴黎市长期间。他们没有早点抓住他的唯一原因?他拥有总统豁免权,直到2007年。他们像收债员一样等着他,直到他的长期死敌尼古拉·萨科齐上任。为了说明两位总统世界观的对比,希拉克让法国远离了山姆大叔在伊拉克的政权更迭行动,而萨科齐入侵了利比亚,并一手负责将法国重新纳入北约指挥体系,此前总统夏尔·戴高乐为了国家主权拒绝这样做。当希拉克最终被定罪时,他不再对萨科齐的团队构成任何选举威胁,因为那时他否认患有阿尔茨海默氏症的次数比否认政治不当行为的次数还多。 勒庞的定罪立即引起了她的政治盟友的反应。匈牙利总理维克多·欧尔班在推特上写道,“Je suis Marine”,这是对圣战分子枪击了“查理周刊”讽刺杂志巴黎新闻编辑室后出现的“Je Suis Charlie”口号的致敬。荷兰右翼人士海尔特·维尔德斯称这一判决“极其严厉”,并预测她将在上诉中获胜并赢得法国总统职位。如果她真的在上诉中获胜。如果那发生在2027年之前。如果法国法律体系没有突然“发现”另一个障碍,在欧盟的帮助下,就像经常发生的那样。因为如果历史告诉我们什么,那就是法国的选举不仅仅是在投票箱中赢得或失去的——它们也是在法庭上决定的。而且不知何故,执政党似乎永远不是受审的一方。 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。

伊朗在联合国安理会谴责特朗普的轰炸威胁 “`

` tags. (SeaPRwire) -   德黑兰敦促国际社会对美国总统“鲁莽和好战”的言论采取行动 伊朗已就美国总统Donald Trump的军事行动威胁向联合国安理会提出正式申诉,称他的言论“鲁莽和好战”。 Trump最近威胁伊朗,如果伊朗不接受核协议,将对其进行“前所未见的”轰炸打击。伊朗领导人谴责了这一声明,并誓言如果受到攻击将进行报复。 伊朗常驻联合国大使Amir Saeid Iravani周一在给安理会的信中指责美国犯下了“公然违反国际法”的行为。 信中写道,德黑兰“强烈警告不要进行任何军事冒险主义,并将迅速而果断地回应美国或其代理人以色列政权对伊朗主权、领土完整或国家利益的任何侵略或攻击。” 该文件还敦促国际机构“履行《联合国宪章》规定的维护国际和平与安全的责任”,并“明确谴责”美国的威胁。 在周日接受NBC News采访时,Trump威胁说,如果伊朗不接受一项结束其核计划的协议,将攻击伊朗。 他被引述说:“如果他们不达成协议,就会有轰炸。这将是他们从未见过的轰炸。” 在言辞升级之前,德黑兰的核计划已经持续紧张多年。在他第一个总统任期内,Trump单方面退出了2015年的Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA),这是一项旨在缩减伊朗核计划以换取放松国际制裁的国际协议。在美国退出并恢复制裁后,据报道,伊朗减少了对该协议的遵守。 国际原子能机构负责人Rafael Grossi在12月表示,伊朗正在将其铀浓缩至60%的纯度,并表示担忧。该材料需要浓缩至90%左右才能被认为是武器级。 伊朗长期以来一直坚称其核计划是和平的,并且在“国际框架”下是合法的。 3月初,Trump表示,他已致信伊朗最高领袖Ayatollah Ali Khamenei,建议恢复有关该协议的会谈,并明确表示他给予伊朗两个月的时间来遵守。 伊朗总统Masoud Pezeshkian回应说,呼吁华盛顿首先重建与德黑兰的信任。在周日的内阁会议上,Pezeshkian拒绝直接会谈,但表示“间接谈判的途径是开放的。” 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。

欧盟高级外交官:北约将“挺过”特朗普 “`

(SeaPRwire) -   美国总统此前威胁称,除非北约大幅增加国防开支,否则他不会保护该联盟 欧盟外交政策负责人卡娅·卡拉斯表示,尽管面临美国总统唐纳德·特朗普的压力,北约仍将保持完整。但她警告说,一些成员国必须准备好做出艰难的选择,才能达到所需的国防开支水平。 在周一接受西班牙《世界报》采访时,卡拉斯被问及“北约能否在特朗普任期内幸存下来”。她回答说:“我确信。这是一个强大且充满活力的联盟”,并补充说,成员国已承诺到2024年将至少2%的国内生产总值用于国防——但该集团的很大一部分成员尚未达到这一门槛。 “我听到了某些国家遇到的问题,但我也认为,如果不做出艰难且不受欢迎的决定,就无法摆脱这种局面,这是一种幻想,”她说,并引用了她担任爱沙尼亚总理期间该国提高税收的例子。 当被问及欧盟为何不向那些国防开支落后的国家提供直接补贴时,卡拉斯表示,欧盟必须平衡高负债国家和那些为欧盟预算贡献最多的国家的利益。为了解决这个问题,欧盟已经制定了“财政规则中的救济措施,为成员国提供更大的操作空间”,这可以为各国提供多种增加支出的选择,她补充说。 自从他的第一个任期以来,特朗普一直在敦促欧洲北约成员国增加自己的国防开支。虽然该集团的成员同意达到2%的门槛,但在2月份,美国总统建议北约成员国应考虑将高达5%的国内生产总值用于国防。上个月,他警告说:“如果他们不付钱,我就不会保护他们。” 北约秘书长马克·吕特表示,特朗普要求欧洲成员国增加国防开支是正确的。 北约领导人坚称,军费开支的增加旨在威慑俄罗斯,因为乌克兰冲突。一些官员暗示,莫斯科可能会在几年内对美国领导的北约发动全面攻击。 俄罗斯总统弗拉基米尔·普京驳斥了这种猜测,称其为“无稽之谈”,并辩称莫斯科对此没有兴趣。 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。

NEC has developed technologies that enable a secure workflow for personalized cancer vaccines and has proven their capabilities

TOKYO, Apr 1, 2025 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - NEC Corporation (NEC; TSE: 6701) has developed and successfully demonstrated a technology that enables face recognition without storing patients' facial information and ensures traceability through the entire workflow process for personalized cancer vaccine. Moreover, NEC has developed and successfully demonstrated a new technology that requires minimal validation data to effectively manage sensitive information.This initiative marks a world-first accomplishment that is aligned with the practical workflow expected for personalized cancer vaccine therapies (1).Personalized cancer vaccines are developed by analyzing genomic data on a patient's tissue and blood samples, making accurate administration crucial since each vaccine is tailored to the individual. The workflow for these vaccines is more complex than that of conventional vaccines and is expected to expand as the number of patients increases. Therefore, integrating ICT into the workflow is essential to enhance safety and efficiency, facilitating the realization and widespread adoption of personalized cancer vaccine therapies.In addition to advancing personalized cancer vaccines through AI, NEC has also developed technologies to enhance vaccine manufacturing management. Furthermore, NEC has been actively involved in comprehensive ICT-based activities to produce personalized cancer vaccine therapies, including the publication of a white paper (2).NEC has now developed and demonstrated the following technologies for in-house PoCs.Workflow for Personalized Cancer Vaccines1. Biometric based digital signature that enables face recognition and ensures traceability without storing facial information (3)Since personalized cancer vaccines are developed based on patients' genomic data, they must be administered to the correct patient without any mix-ups, requiring highly reliable identification. In addition to verifying patients’ names and IDs, biometric recognition can further enhance identification reliability when collecting samples or administering vaccines. However, the use of biometric recognition requires the secure management of biometric information.NEC has developed a proprietary digital signature technology that enables face recognition without storing facial information. This is accomplished by converting the feature information of facial images into key information. This technology enables authentication using key information, enhancing the reliability of vaccine administration without the risk of misuse or leakage of sensitive facial information. In addition, the digital signature generated by this technology can be used to verify and trace the correct patient identification at the time of vaccine administration, without using facial information.Identification utilizing a biometric based digital signature2. Tampering detection technology that reduces the amount of validation data required to securely store sensitive informationSince personalized cancer vaccines are developed based on a patient's genomic data, ensuring the authenticity of the data is important. One solution is to use a tampering detection technology that attaches validation tag data to verify the genomic data. However, a large amount of genomic data and an enormous amount of tag data are required when large amounts of patient data need to be managed. Therefore, conventional tampering detection technologies face difficulties with tag data verification time and storage cost.NEC has developed a tampering detection technology that reduces the amount of validation tag data by grouping genomic data and assigning validation tags accordingly. This technology reduces the amount of tag data by 90% while maintaining the same level of tamper detection accuracy as the conventional methods of assigning tag data to each genomic data. Consequently, it lowers the storage cost of tag data while ensuring the authenticity of patient genomic data.Tampering detection for the genomic and vaccine data with minimal validation dataTo verify the capabilities of these technologies, NEC built an environment that simulates the actual workflow for personalized cancer vaccines. In tests that simulated mix-ups of patients or samples, it was confirmed that the biometric based digital signature technology can correctly detect a mix-up before a vaccine is administered, and that the tampering detection technology can detect if genomic data has been tampered with.Looking ahead, NEC will continue to approach the production of personalized cancer vaccine therapies from various perspectives, including further research and development based on these results.(1) According to an NEC survey as of April 1, 2025(2) NEC white paper proposes a comprehensive process workflow for the application of AI-driven personalized cancer vaccines: www.nec.com/en/press/202404/global_20240408_01.html(3) NEC develops biometric based digital signature technology that enables face recognition without storing facial information: www.nec.com/en/press/202502/global_20250226_03.html About NEC CorporationNEC Corporation has established itself as a leader in the integration of IT and network technologies while promoting the brand statement of “Orchestrating a brighter world.” NEC enables businesses and communities to adapt to rapid changes taking place in both society and the market as it provides for the social values of safety, security, fairness and efficiency to promote a more sustainable world where everyone has the chance to reach their full potential.
