議会がFBIに学生抗議者のスパイを要請
On May 10, the Chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee sent a letter to FBI Director Christopher Wray asking “whether the FBI had any related undercover employees, online covert employees, or confidential human sources” among what it called “pro-Hamas protests on college campuses.”
By sending the letter, Congress is in effect pressuring the FBI to penetrate the protests with both on-the-ground and online informants (if it hasn’t already). An obvious threat to the freedom of speech and association enshrined in the Constitution, the letter tries to circu… 続きを読む

北朝鮮は、米国のサブクリティカルテストに対応して核抑止力を強化すると誓う。
In a move that has escalated tensions on the international stage, North Korea has announced its intention to strengthen its nuclear deterrence capabilities. This declaration comes as a direct response to the United States' recent subcritical nuclear test conducted in Nevada, as announced by the U.S.'s National Nuclear Security Administration. The test, which did not involve a nuclear explosion but rather was designed to examine the behavior of nuclear materials under certain conditions, has nonetheless sparked a significant reaction from Pyongyang. North Korea views the U.S. action… 続きを読む

台湾の新しい大統領、賴清徳氏は中国に威圧的な手法を停止するよう求めます。
In a bold move that marks a significant moment in Taiwan's political landscape, the newly inaugurated President Lai Ching-te has openly called on China to cease its political and military intimidation of the island. This plea comes at a time when tensions between Taiwan and China are notably high, with Beijing viewing Taiwan as part of its territory, despite the island's self-governance and democratic system. Lai's inauguration not only signifies the start of a historic third consecutive term for Taiwan's ruling Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) but also sets a defiant… 続きを読む

イランは喪に服し、そして祝う:大統領エブラヒム・ライシの複雑な遺産
The sudden death of Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi in a helicopter crash has sent shockwaves through Iran and the international community. Known for his brutal crackdowns against political opposition, Raisi's passing at the age of 63 marks the end of a controversial chapter in Iran's history. His tenure was marked by a harsh stance against dissent, earning him the moniker 'Butcher of Tehran' and making him a polarizing figure both within and outside of Iran.
In the wake of his death, reactions within Iran have been mixed. While some mourn the loss of their leader, others… 続きを読む

バイデン氏は、イスラエルの指導者に対する逮捕状申請を「信じられない」と非難した。
US President Joe Biden has strongly denounced the decision by the prosecutor of the International Criminal Court to seek arrest warrants against Israeli leaders, calling it “outrageous.”“
Let me be clear: whatever this prosecutor might imply, there is no equivalence — none — between Israel and Hamas,” the president wrote. “We will always stand with Israel against threats to its security.”

国々が大統領の死を受けてイランに祈りを捧げます
Several leaders in Asia and Europe offered their support and prayers to Iran as the country continues rescue operations for a helicopter that crashed while carrying Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi on Sunday.

共和党の上院議員が、全国的に体外受精治療を合法化する法案を提出しました。
Republican Sens. Ted Cruz (Texas) and Katie Britt (Ala.) announced Monday that they are introducing legislation to protect legal access to in vitro fertilization (IVF) nationwide in the wake of an Alabama Supreme Court ruling that embryos created by the treatment are children.
Cruz and Britt said they will unveil the bill to clear up the “confusion and misinformation” spread by the ruling, which has alarmed prospective parents who worry they may lose access to the procedure and the chance to have children.

中国、台湾への武器販売をめぐり米防衛企業に制裁を課す
In a significant escalation of tensions between China and the United States, China has announced sanctions against three major US defense companies over their involvement in arms sales to Taiwan. The Chinese Ministry of Commerce revealed that Boeing Defense, General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, and General Dynamics Land Systems have been added to its list of 'unreliable companies'. This move comes as a direct response to the firms' participation in supplying military equipment to Taiwan, an island that China claims as part of its territory despite Taiwan's self-governance… 続きを読む
The sanctions mark a new chapter in the complex relationship between China, the United States, and Taiwan. China has long opposed any form of military assistance to Taiwan from other countries, viewing it as a challenge to its sovereignty claims. The inclusion of these companies on China's blacklist signifies Beijing's readiness to take concrete actions against entities that support Taiwan's military capabilities.

ポープ・フランシスは、南部国境を閉鎖しようとする試みを「狂気」と非難します。
During the April 24 interview with "60 Minutes" that aired Sunday, Francis was asked his thoughts on the conservative backlash against his papacy, with many of his critics being American clergy members.
Francis responded by saying a conservative is someone who "clings to something and does not want to see beyond that."
"It is a suicidal attitude," the pontiff said.
"Because one thing is to take tradition into account, to consider situations from the past, but quite another is to be closed up inside a dogmatic box."

米国、ガザ戦争の政治的解決を要請
Jake Sullivan, the US national security adviser, sought to increase pressure on Benjamin Netanyahu to accept a political solution to the war in Gaza and a regional deal with Saudi Arabia in talks with the Israeli prime minister.
Sullivan’s push came during a whirlwind trip to the Middle East which included talks on Saturday in Saudi Arabia with Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and a stop in Israel on Sunday for meetings with Netanyahu and other top officials.
The visit came as the White House has grown increasingly frustrated with Israel over its plans to launch a ground offensive in the… 続きを読む

バイデンはタイトルIXを女性や女の子に対する武器に変える
The Biden administration’s Title IX rule, which the Education Department published on April 29, is a looming disaster for women and girls.
Virtually every school in the nation that takes federal money will now have to allow boys who identify as girls to enter girls’ physical-education classes, locker rooms, showers and bathrooms.
Schools will be compelled to disregard the rights of women and girls in favor of a male’s subjective and sometimes temporary feelings.
It demands that students, teachers and administrators go along with the lies of gender ideology, which are harmin… 続きを読む

A congressional investigation found that BMW, Jaguar Land Rover and Volkswagen purchased parts that originated from a Chinese supplier flagged by the United States for participating in forced labor programs in Xinjiang, a far western region of China where the local population is subject to mass surveillance and detentions.
Both BMW and Jaguar Land Rover continued to import components made by the Chinese company into the United States in violation of American law, even after they were informed in writing about the presence of banned products in their supply chain, the report said.

アサンジは米国への引き渡しに異議を申し立てることができる
A London court ruled on Monday that Julian Assange, the embattled WikiLeaks founder, could appeal his extradition to the United States, a move that opens a new chapter in his prolonged fight against the order in Britain’s courts.
Two High Court judges said they would allow an appeal to be heard on a limited number of issues.
In March, the judges said that the court would grant a request to appeal unless the American government gave “a satisfactory assurance” that Mr. Assange would be afforded protections under the U.S. Constitution, would not be “prejudiced by reason of… 続きを読む
