Honda Launches All-New Prelude Teaser Page Ahead of Scheduled September 2025 Market Introduction

TOKYO, Japan, July 31, 2025 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) –Honda Motor Co., Ltd. today launched a teaser page on its company website to share information on the all-new Prelude, which is scheduled to go on sale in September 2025.The all-new Prelude is a specialty sports model which represents the unrelenting Honda sports mindset, carrying forward the “joy of driving” into the electrified era, while also pursuing environmental performance and everyday usability.All-New Prelude Teaser Page: https://www.honda.co.jp/PRELUDE/new/All-new PreludeOverview of all-new PreludeGrand Concept: “Unlimited Glide” — Endless driving pleasure & Extraordinary experience —Inspired by the image of gliders soaring freely and boundlessly through the open sky, Honda developed the all-new Prelude under the grand concept of “Unlimited Glide,” striving for a vehicle that evokes the uplifting sensation of gliding gracefully through the air and extraordinary experience that people do not have in their everyday lives.Like a glider, with proportions that epitomize a universally recognized functional beauty with widespread wings and which glides through the air while making dynamic yet smooth turns, the all-new Prelude was designed to offer a special driving experience that arouses the desire to keep on driving. Equipped with a further advanced e:HEV, original Honda hybrid system, this model will become the “prelude” for future Honda specialty sports models in the electrified era. Exterior designThe all-new Prelude features a low, sharp front nose and smooth, yet expressive body lines, which contribute to the uplifting sensation of gliding through the air, as well as a low and wide stance that evokes a sense of dynamic driving. Moreover, this model is characterized by a number of unique design features such as the headlight design inspired by gliders, smooth and clean door panels with flush outer door handles, and the black chrome-plated front grille that express the sense of premium quality and sophistication, embodying what Honda pursues in its specialty cars.Interior designDesign evoking the uplifting sensation of gliding through the air was also applied to the interior of the all-new Prelude, ensuring a comfortable space not only for the driver but the front passenger as well. The grand concept of the all-new Prelude was expressed with the main interior color combination of fresh white and deep blue. The instrument panel design evokes a sense of exclusivity through its fine detailing such as the softly shaded white surface material that makes it irresistible to touch and the embroidered Prelude logo in front of the passenger seat.The front seats were designed differently to suit separate needs: the driver’s seat holds the driver in place even during sporty driving, while the passenger seat offers comfort together with just the right amount of feeling of being enveloped. Other unique interior design features, such as a low and horizontally expansive line of sight, a D-shaped steering wheel and full-graphic meters designed exclusively for Prelude, are enhancing a sense of anticipation for an exceptional driving experience this vehicle can offer.Package designAs a new-generation specialty car that offers new value to the customer, the all-new Prelude features a package design that achieves seemingly conflicting qualities—specialty and versatility.While a wide, low and smoothly sculpted body realizes the proportions worthy of a specialty sports model, the large-diameter tires and an optimized wheelbase enable the all-new Prelude to demonstrate its outstanding dynamic performance.In addition, a cargo space features a large-opening liftback that makes loading and unloading easy, split-folding rear seats that enable versatile cargo loading, as well as an underfloor storage compartment and convenient hooks, to realize a user-friendly cargo space. History of Honda PreludeEver since the launch of the first-generation model in 1978, spanning five generations, Honda Prelude has always been at the forefront of the times as an advanced FF (front-engine, front-wheel-drive) specialty model featuring cutting-edge technologies of the times, including: the first Japanese model to feature an electric sunroof, anti-lock brake system (ABS), and the world’s first four-wheel steering (4WS) system. After a 24-year hiatus, with this 6th-generation model, the Prelude will return to the market as a hybrid specialty car suitable for the electrified era.

Early Alzheimer’s Patients Continue to Benefit from Four Years of LEQEMBI(R) (lecanemab-irmb) Therapy New Clinical Data Presented at AAIC JCN Newswire

Early Alzheimer’s Patients Continue to Benefit from Four Years of LEQEMBI(R) (lecanemab-irmb) Therapy New Clinical Data Presented at AAIC

- Data Showed LEQEMBI Slowed Clinical Decline by 1.75 Points on CDR-SB at Four Years Compared to the Natural History of Alzheimer’s Disease- 56% of Patients with Low Tau Continued to Demonstrate Improved Cognitive and Daily Living Function at Four YearsTOKYO and CAMBRIDGE, Mass., July 31, 2025 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Eisai Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Tokyo, CEO: Haruo Naito, “Eisai”)and Biogen Inc. (Nasdaq: BIIB, Headquarters: Cambridge, Massachusetts, CEO: Christopher A. Viehbacher,“Biogen”) announced today that the latest findings demonstrating the benefits of continuous treatment with lecanemab-irmb (U.S. brand name: LEQEMBI®), an anti-amyloid beta (AB) protofibril* antibody for the treatment of early Alzheimer’s disease (AD), were presented at the Alzheimer's Association International Conference(AAIC) 2025, held in Toronto, Canada, and virtually. Only lecanemab fights AD in two ways – targeting both amyloid plaque and protofibrils*, which can impact tau downstream.Four Years of Lecanemab Therapy Helped Patients Slow the Progression of AD and Remain in the Early Stages of AD Longer Compared to AD’s Natural Course Clarity AD is a global Phase 3 placebo-controlled, double-blind, parallel-group, randomized study to evaluate lecanemab 10 mg/kg bi-weekly IV treatment of early Alzheimer's disease, which involved 1,795 patients(treatment group: 898, placebo group: 897). 95% of patients who completed the core study (18 months) chose to continue in the open-label extension study (OLE), with 478 patients still receiving treatment for four years. In the Clarity AD core study, the mean change from baseline between the lecanemab treated group and the placebo group after 18 months was -0.45 (P=0.00005) on the primary endpoint of CDR-SB global cognitive and functional scale.To provide context, a change from 0.5 to 1 on the Clinical Dementia Rating (CDR) score domains of Memory, Community Affairs and Home/Hobbies reflects a shift from mild impairment to loss of independence. This can affect a person’s ability to be left alone safely, recall recent events, participate in daily activities, manage household tasks, and engage in hobbies and intellectual interests.1,2Over three years of treatment, including both the core study and the OLE, data showed lecanemab demonstrate da reduction in cognitive decline—measured by CDR-SB—of 1.01 points compared to the expected decline observed in the Alzheimer’s Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI)** cohort. This benefit grew more pronounced after four years, with a reduction of 1.75 points. Similarly, when bench marked against the expected decline in the BioFINDER*** cohort, lecanemab showed a reduction of 1.40 points at three years and an even greater reduction of 2.17 points at the four years mark.

New Data Presented at AAIC Demonstrates Investigational LEQEMBI(R) (lecanemab-irmb) 360 mg Subcutaneous Maintenance Dosing Could Offer a New Option for Ongoing Treatment of Early Alzheimer’s Disease

TOKYO and CAMBRIDGE, Mass., July 31, 2025 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Eisai Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Tokyo, CEO: Haruo Naito, “Eisai”)and Biogen Inc. (Nasdaq: BIIB, Headquarters: Cambridge, Massachusetts, CEO: Christopher A. Viehbacher,“Biogen”) announced today that results on investigational maintenance therapy with subcutaneous autoinjector (SCAI) of lecanemab-irmb (U.S. brand name: LEQEMBI®), an anti-amyloid beta (AB) protofibril* antibody for the treatment of early Alzheimer’s disease (AD), were presented at the Alzheimer's Association International Conference(AAIC) 2025, held in Toronto, and virtually. Only lecanemab fights AD in two ways—targeting both protofibrils and plaque, which can impact tau accumulation downstream.Importance of Ongoing Treatment and SC Development ProgramDue to the reaccumulation of AD biomarkers and return to placebo rate of decline after therapy is stopped1, Eisai is investigating a new lecanemab SC maintenance treatment option following 18 months of IV therapy so patients can continue to fight this progressive, relentless disease.Clinical trials of lecanemab SC were conducted as a sub-study of the open-label extension (OLE) following the core Phase 3 Clarity AD study in individuals with early AD, to evaluate a range of doses administered by SC vial or autoinjector. Eisai has developed a SC-AI for maintenance therapy at a dose of 360 mg weekly and a500 mg SC-AI is being developed for initiation dosing. Similar Impact on Clinical Outcomes and Biomarkers with IV and SC DosingThe pharmacology (PK/PD), clinical (efficacy endpoints such as CDR-SB) and biomarker (amyloid PET and blood biomarkers) relationships established with extensive clinical data supported the FDA approval of IV maintenance therapy after the initial 18 months of treatment and support the investigational SC maintenance dose option.- Data supports that transitioning to a weekly 360 mg SC AI dose of lecanemab after 18 months of initiation dose (10 mg/kg IV biweekly) maintains clinical and biomarker benefits comparable to continued biweekly IV dosing.- Clinical and biomarker responses at 48 months with monthly IV maintenance dosing are similar to the responses with ongoing biweekly dosing whether patients are amyloid positive (>30 CL) or negative (

Two-Year Real-World Study of LEQEMBI(R) in the United States Presented at Alzheimer’s Association International Conference (AAIC) 2025

TOKYO and CAMBRIDGE, Mass., July 31, 2025 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Eisai Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Tokyo, CEO: Haruo Naito,“Eisai”) and Biogen Inc. (Nasdaq: BIIB, Corporate headquarters: Cambridge, Massachusetts, CEO: Christopher A.Viehbacher, “Biogen”) announced today that the two-year real-world study in the U.S of lecanemab (generic name, product name: LEQEBMI®), an anti-AB protofibril* antibody, was presented at the Alzheimer's Association International Conference (AAIC) 2025, held in Toronto, Canada and virtually. Only lecanemab fights AD in two ways– targeting both amyloid plaque and protofibrils*, which can impact tau downstream.Lecanemab received traditional approval in the U.S. in July 2023 for the treatment of early Alzheimer's disease (AD). This retrospective study was conducted to investigate the actual state of real-world clinical treatment with lecanemabat 15 medical centers in the U.S., with a final report scheduled for late in the third quarter of Eisai’s fiscal year ending March 31, 2026. This presentation serves as an interim report as of July 1, 2025.Patient Baseline and Actual Treatment Situation The interim study collected information on 178 people living with early AD from nine US medical centers using a standardized case report format. The disease stage of the patients at baseline was mild cognitive impairment (MCI) due to AD in 57.6% and mild AD in 42.4%. The average age of the patients was 74.2 (±6.6) years, and the ratio of men to women was 44.6 to 55.4.The mean duration of lecanemab treatment was 375.4 days (± 182.8 days). The mean time from diagnosis to first treatment was 224.2 days (± 295.4 days) and the mean number of lecanemab treatments was 24.8 (± 11.5). At the time of case reporting, 87.4% of patients (152 patients) were continuing treatment with lecanemab. Adverse events leading to discontinuation of treatment included ARIA-E (ARIA-edema/exudation) in two patients (1.1%), ARIA-H(ARIA-cerebral microbleeds, cerebral hemorrhage and superficial hemosiderin deposition) in two patients (1.1%),and concomitant ARIA-E and ARIA-H in one patient (0.6%). Three patients (1.7%) discontinued due to adverse events other than ARIA. In addition, 11 patients (6.3%) reported discontinuing the treatment for personal reasons or at the discretion of their doctor or the individual.In this study, 83.6% of patients either remained at the same clinical stage or improved from mild dementia to MCI (stable: 76.9%, improvement: 6.7%). Additionally, at time of interim data cut, 86.7% of patients who had received 40 or more doses over 18 months remained stable or showed clinical improvement (stable: 66.7%,improvement: 20.0%:).Of the 178 patients, ARIA was observed in 23 (12.9%). 14 (7.9%) were observed to have ARIA-E, of which 12(6.7%) were asymptomatic. ARIA-H was present in 11 patients (6.2%), all of whom were asymptomatic. Infusion reactions were observed in four patients (2.2%). Additionally, no serious bleeding events or deaths were reported. Impact of APOE4 Status Of the 178 patients in this study, 12 were excluded with unknown status. Among the remaining 166 patients,30 (18.1%) were APOE 4 homozygotes, 84 (49.4%) were heterozygotes, 54 (32.5%) were non-carriers. Generally, the proportion of homozygotes among people with AD is thought to be 15% or more.The incidence of ARIA was 20.0%, 9.8% and 14.8% in homozygous carriers, heterozygous carriers and noncarriers, respectively (45.0%, 19.0% and 13.0% respectively in the Phase 3 Clarity AD 18-month core study). The incidence rate of ARIA-E and ARIA-H were 13.3% and 10.0%, respectively (32.6% and 39.0% in the Clarity AD core study), which is within the FDA-approved label range. The majority of ARIA cases (0.13%) were asymptomatic. The incidence of adverse events leading to discontinuation was 16.7% in homozygous carriers,2.4% in heterozygous carriers and 5.6% in non-carriers.73.3% of homozygote patients’ clinical stage remained stable or improved (stable: 66.6%, improved: 6.7%),88.0% of heterozygotes patients’ clinical stage remained stable or improved (stable: 83.0%, improved: 4.9%)and 85.2% of non-carrier patients’ clinical stage remained stable or improved (stable: 75.9%, improved: 9.3%).Utilization of Blood-Based Biomarkers (BBMs)BBMs are being developed in AD to identify brain AB pathology and are intended for use in prescreening (triage)and confirmatory diagnosis. Of the 178 patients in this study, 49 patients (27.5%) were diagnosed using BBMs. In some of these cases (11 patients, 6.1%), it was also used for confirmatory diagnosis. Data collected from clinical practices showed the volume of tests doubling every 4 to 8 months, with BBMs using p-tau217 growing most rapidly.Satisfaction with Lecanemab Treatment The results of a physician, patient and care partner lecanemab satisfaction survey was presented. The survey was based on questionnaires and interviews with nine U.S. physicians and evaluated treatment from multiple perspectives, including efficacy, safety and quality of life (QOL).In the physicians’ evaluation, the average satisfaction level for the treatment efficacy and safety (out of 10) was8.7. The scoring criteria included: cognition 8.1, daily function 8.1, behavioral/neuropsychiatric symptoms 7.9and QOL 8.0. The satisfaction level of the patients as assessed by physicians was 8.8, and that of the care partners was 8.2. These results highlight the favorable evaluation of lecanemab’s efficacy and safety in real world clinical practice and reinforce its therapeutic value.Note: Retrospective real-world studies can be very valuable in providing additional information to complement clinical trial data. However, there may have several limitations to keep in mind:Potential for BiasesData Completeness and ConsistencyData may be collected inconsistently since data collection is completed by different people at independent3 sites.* Mitigation: Data inconsistency is pursued by providing site access to standardized electronic case-report forms.Lack of Control GroupInterpretation of data may be limited since real-world studies do not utilize placebo-controlled armsConfounding VariablesConfounding variables are not controllable, which may impact the relationship between the exposure and outcome.Eisai serves as the lead for lecanemab’s development and regulatory submissions globally with both companies co-commercializing and co-promoting the product and Eisai having final decision-making authority.* Protofibrils are thought to be the most toxic AB species that contribute to brain damage in AD and play a major role in the cognitive decline of this progressive and devastating disease. Protofibrils can cause neuronal and synaptic damage in the brain, which can subsequently adversely affect cognitive function through multiple mechanisms.1 The mechanism by which this occurs has been reported not only by increasing the formation of insoluble AB plaques, but also by directly damaging signaling between neurons and other cells. It is believed that reducing protofibrils may reduce neuronal damage and cognitive impairment, potentially preventing the progression of AD.2For more details, please visit: https://www.eisai.com/news/2025/pdf/enews202552pdf.pdfMEDIA CONTACTSEisai Co., Ltd.Public Relations DepartmentTEL: +81 (0)3-3817-5120Eisai Europe, Ltd.EMEA Communications Department+44 (0) 797 487 9419Emea-comms@eisai.netEisai Inc.

With the full support of the Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR), a launch ceremony for the second Hong Kong Shopping Festival was held today. The Financial Secretary of the HKSAR Government Paul Chan also filmed a promotional video for the campaign (video link: https://bit.ly/4mkvpec). Algernon Yau, Secretary for Commerce and Economic Development of the HKSAR Government said: “Building on the great success of the first edition of the Hong Kong Shopping Festival last year, this year’s event has attracted even more brands to participate. E-commerce is a major global trend in retail development. In 2024, the cross-border e-commerce market of the Mainland with vast potential reached over RMB17 trillion, presenting a golden opportunity for Hong Kong businesses to expand. In light of this, the government has been fully supporting industry upgrading and transformation through various measures to help enterprises establish online sales channels. The Hong Kong Shopping Festival serves as an ideal platform to showcase the city's premium products to more Mainland consumers."Patrick Lau, Deputy Executive Director, HKTDC, said: “New consumer trends are emerging in the Mainland market, reshaping buying habits and creating tremendous opportunities for Hong Kong businesses. While Hong Kong SMEs offer high-quality products, they need to understand the local business environment and e-commerce practices to successfully enter this vast market. As the flagship event of HKTDC's E-commerce Express, the second Hong Kong Shopping Festival will partner with major e-commerce and social media platforms for promotion and include a series of training sessions focused on the Mainland e-commerce market. This initiative aims to help businesses effectively tap into opportunities in Mainland e-commerce and connect with their target customers.”In November 2024, the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) released a research study on the development of cross-border e-commerce for Hong Kong traders. HKTDC Director of Research, Irina Fan, said over 60% of surveyed Hong Kong businesses view the Mainland Chinese market as the most promising e-commerce market in the coming one to two years. To help Hong Kong businesses gain insights into the Mainland e-commerce market, HKTDC Research interviewed 2,200 Mainland consumers from different regions about their online shopping behavior and characteristics. Ms Fan said: “Mainland China is the world’s largest e-commerce market and has a well-developed e-commerce industry. Hong Kong businesses must gain a deep understanding of Mainland consumers’ online shopping behaviors, their preferences for Hong Kong products, and the factors they consider when choosing e-commerce platforms. Only then can they formulate appropriate business strategies and effectively capture opportunities in the Mainland e-commerce retail market.” The latest research report: Hong Kong Businesses Navigating Mainland China E-commerce Retail Market - Consumer Survey Results will be released on 7 August 2025.The Hong Kong Shopping Festival aims to help Hong Kong businesses take advantage of the large customer base and traffic on Mainland e-commerce platforms, boosting their brand and product visibility while providing practical opportunities. Last year's inaugural edition was very successful, with total views on e-commerce platforms, social media, and the event's official website exceeding 90 million. This year, the HKTDC has enhanced the programme, enabling businesses to better seize market opportunities and speed up their expansion into the Mainland market.To enhance support for Hong Kong SMEs and local brands entering the Mainland e-commerce market, this year's Hong Kong Shopping Festival has introduced thematic seminars and one-on-one consultancy services. From late 2024 to June 2025, HKTDC has successfully organised a series of training sessions led by marketing experts, who shared practical insights on topics such as cross-border e-commerce, logistics, payment tools, marketing skills, and live-stream production. Additionally, nearly 50 one-on-one consulting meetings were held, where Mainland marketing experts offered tailored e-commerce strategies to individual participating companies based on the unique characteristics of their products.This year, Discount Month and live-streaming e-commerce will return with enhanced offering. Discount Month will take place from 1 to 31 August, with all Hong Kong businesses involved in the Hong Kong Shopping Festival offering discounts of up to 75%. This initiative not only helps businesses grow but also allows consumers to buy high-quality products from Hong Kong online. The official website of Hong Kong Shopping Festival will provide event details, live-streaming schedules and information about participating brands, products and discounts. In addition, HKTDC will promote the campaign through online and offline platforms, including Xiaohongshu, Douyin, Taobao, JD and others, to boost visits to the official website and, redirect them to the SMEs’ online stores.HKTDC recently hosted the debut “Product Selection Showcase” which attracted over 40 popular KOLs and their teams from platforms like Taobao, JD.com, and Douyin to connect with participating brands offline in Hong Kong. They experienced the products firsthand, learned about the brand stories, shared highlights and live-stream previews. In early August, HKTDC’s invited Mainland key opinion leaders (KOLs), including Li Jiaqi, Lin Yilun and Hu Ke, will conduct 35 live-streaming sessions for more than 80 brands on major e-commerce platforms, in which nearly 20 live-streaming sessions will take place in Hong Kong for the first time, allowing Mainland consumers to fully experience shopping in Hong Kong. This arrangement will make live-streaming more appealing, enhance visibility for Hong Kong products and brands, and build consumer trust and interest, while providing a valuable live-streaming experience for participating businesses.Mainland online marketing strategies are diverse and multifaceted. Beyond live-streaming, there are numerous ways to enhance brand exposure. Ryan Tse, President of the Hong Kong Health Food Association, Director of Vita Green Health Products Co., Ltd., Elijandy, Founder and Director of Cross International Ltd and Jones Ng, Founder of Chiwa Digital Media Capital Group Ltd. shared valuable insights in e-commerce marketing and promotion at the launch ceremony.

Over 20 Million Shares Repurchased in Two Days, Shoucheng Holdings Sends a Strong Signal with Decisive Action ACN Newswire

Over 20 Million Shares Repurchased in Two Days, Shoucheng Holdings Sends a Strong Signal with Decisive Action

HONG KONG, July 31, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - As Hong Kong’s equity market continues to face valuation pressure and investor sentiment remains cautious, Shoucheng Holdings (0697.HK) has taken decisive action to respond with confidence.According to disclosures filed with the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, the company repurchased 20.65 million shares over two consecutive days on July 29 and 30, 2025, for a total consideration of HKD 37.93 million, with prices ranging between HKD 1.80 and HKD 1.87 per share. This is not the company’s first sizable repurchase this year. In fact, Shoucheng Holdings has repurchased over 36 million shares since July, with total capital deployed exceeding HKD 66 million.At a time when many peers remain on the sidelines, Shoucheng’s sustained repurchases highlight the strength of its conviction and capital position.1. Beyond Price Support: A Declaration of Long-Term Confidence by ManagementShare repurchases are among the most direct signals a listed company can send to the capital markets. Unlike short-term technical interventions, Shoucheng’s proactive repurchase strategy clearly reflects management’s firm belief in the company’s long-term intrinsic value.Management commented:“Our current share price does not fully reflect the company’s fundamentals and industrial potential. At a time of significant undervaluation, we believe it is our responsibility to act decisively and demonstrate long-term confidence. This reflects our accountability to shareholders and our responsibility as an industry-driven enterprise.”Public filings show that Shoucheng has been executing a dual-engine strategy focused on asset operation and asset integration, while expanding into core areas such as REITs investment, smart parking, and industrial real estate. At the same time, it is actively investing in emerging sectors such as robotics and medical technology, creating stronger synergy between capital and industry.2. IPO Pipeline in Motion: Capital Realisation Within ReachRecent developments among Shoucheng’s portfolio companies have further reinforced its long-term outlook.Leading robotics company Unitree Robotics has officially launched its STAR Market IPO process. As a global leader in quadruped and humanoid robotics, Unitree’s upcoming listing is widely viewed as a milestone in the sector’s capital market trajectory. Shoucheng led Unitree’s Series C round in 2024 and continued to participate in subsequent rounds. Based on publicly available data, Shoucheng’s managed Beijing Robotics Industry Development Fund is Unitree’s eighth largest shareholder, positioning the company to be a key beneficiary of its IPO.Meanwhile, cell therapy and immuno-engineering biotech firm IMUNOPHARM has also entered IPO preparation, strengthening Shoucheng’s pipeline of high-potential medical technology exits.With multiple portfolio companies nearing their capitalisation windows, Shoucheng’s continued repurchases not only bolster market confidence but also reflect management’s acute understanding of the disconnect between primary market valuations and secondary market pricing.3. Three Key Conferences Accelerate Robotic Ecosystem MomentumBeyond capital developments, Shoucheng’s industrial strategy is approaching a critical point.In late July, the 2025 World Artificial Intelligence Conference (WAIC) successfully concluded. Several of Shoucheng’s portfolio companies, including Unitree Robotics, Noetix Robotics, DEEP Robotics, Galbot and Matrix showcased their latest advances in intelligent manufacturing and embodied AI.Looking ahead to August, two major robotics events are set to follow: the 2025 World Robot Conference (WRC) and the inaugural World Humanoid Robot Games. As premier global platforms, these events are expected to accelerate industry recognition and application for Shoucheng’s growing robotics ecosystem.Companies under Shoucheng’s portfolio—Unitree, Galbot, Booster Robotics, Noetix, and DEEP Robotics—will participate across key domains, from full-system R&D, control software, and bio-inspired actuators to real-world deployment and developer ecosystems. This reflects Shoucheng’s full-chain capabilities from early-stage investment to platform-level industrial enablement.While many companies remain cautious, waiting for a full market rebound, Shoucheng has already taken proactive steps to communicate its confidence. Its recent repurchases are not merely a price management tool—they are an expression of its strategic direction, execution discipline, and commitment to long-term value creation.As the August industry window opens and IPO progress accelerates, Shoucheng’s repurchase strategy may prove not only timely but also visionary, marking an early confirmation of the company’s future growth trajectory.Posted by All Way Success Company Limited for Shoucheng Holdings www.shouchengholdings.com [HKSE:0697, FRA:SHVA, OTCPK:SHNHF] Copyright 2025 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

Anggota NATO Mengkritik Barat atas ‘Menu’ Geopolitik Ukraina/Gaza Berita

Anggota NATO Mengkritik Barat atas ‘Menu’ Geopolitik Ukraina/Gaza

(SeaPRwire) - Negara-negara yang mengkritik Rusia seringkali “sangat diam” mengenai kampanye militer Israel di wilayah kantong Palestina, demikian disampaikan Menlu Norwegia Espen Barth Eide Negara-negara Barat yang mengutuk operasi militer Rusia terhadap Ukraina seringkali menahan diri untuk tidak mengkritik serangan Israel di Gaza, yang telah menimbulkan krisis kemanusiaan besar, demikian disampaikan menteri luar negeri Norwegia kepada Financial Times. Dalam wawancara pada hari Selasa, Espen Barth Eide menyatakan bahwa negara-negara Barat merusak kredibilitas mereka dengan memperlakukan kedua konflik tersebut dengan cara yang sangat berbeda dan melakukan pilih-pilih (cherry-picking). ”Dengan sangat benar mengkritik Rusia… tetapi sampai baru-baru ini sangat diam mengenai Gaza — itu memberitahu bagian lain dunia bahwa kami tidak benar-benar melihat ini sebagai norma mutlak tetapi lebih seperti menu tempat kami dapat memilih argumen,” katanya. Dia menggambarkan situasi kemanusiaan di Gaza sebagai “lebih buruk dari neraka di bumi” dan menekankan bahwa banyak negara mencurigai Barat memiliki standar ganda. “Sebaiknya kita mencoba memahami, bukan menyetujui, apa yang mereka pikirkan, dan apa yang banyak orang di luar sana anggap sebagai penerapan hukum internasional yang tidak konsisten,” tambahnya. Menyusul serangan mendadak oleh Hamas terhadap Israel pada Oktober 2023, negara Yahudi itu melancarkan kampanye militer di Gaza. Permusuhan tersebut telah menyebabkan puluhan ribu kematian warga sipil, krisis kemanusiaan, dan kehancuran yang belum pernah terjadi sebelumnya. Meskipun negara-negara Barat telah menyuarakan kekhawatiran tentang situasi di Gaza, baru pada Mei 2025 pemerintah Inggris, Prancis, dan Kanada mengeluarkan pernyataan yang mengutuk operasi militer Israel. Selain itu, Prancis, Spanyol, Irlandia, Norwegia, dan Slovenia, baru-baru ini bergerak untuk secara resmi mengakui Negara Palestina, dengan Inggris juga memperingatkan pengakuan yang akan datang kecuali Israel menghentikan permusuhan. AS, sekutu utama Israel, telah menjadi penentang utama dalam mengutuk Yerusalem Barat, mengecam gelombang pengakuan sebagai keuntungan bagi Hamas dan kemunduran bagi perdamaian. Pada bulan Juni, AS juga memveto resolusi Dewan Keamanan PBB yang menyerukan “gencatan senjata permanen di Gaza,” dengan alasan bahwa dokumen tersebut tidak menyerukan Hamas untuk melucuti senjata dan meninggalkan wilayah kantong tersebut. Negara-negara Barat sebagian besar menghindari pengenaan sanksi terhadap Israel, berbeda dengan sanksi yang belum pernah terjadi sebelumnya yang mereka terapkan terhadap Rusia pada tahun 2022.Artikel ini disediakan oleh penyedia konten pihak ketiga.

Tiongkok Akan Menentang Sanksi AS atas Pembelian Minyak Rusia – Menteri Keuangan Berita

Tiongkok Akan Menentang Sanksi AS atas Pembelian Minyak Rusia – Menteri Keuangan

(SeaPRwire) - Beijing menganggap kebijakan energi sebagai masalah kedaulatan, kata Scott Bessent China tetap berkomitmen untuk membeli minyak Rusia meskipun ada ancaman tarif AS, kata Menteri Keuangan Washington, Scott Bessent. Berbicara setelah dua hari pembicaraan perdagangan AS-China di Stockholm pada hari Selasa, Bessent mengakui bahwa Beijing telah menekankan bahwa mereka akan mempertahankan kedaulatan energinya, jika anggota parlemen di Washington meratifikasi sanksi baru yang luas. Pada hari Senin, Presiden AS Donald Trump memangkas batas waktu 50 hari untuk kesepakatan perdamaian Ukraina menjadi hanya 10-12 hari, memperingatkan sanksi besar-besaran jika tidak ada kesepakatan yang tercapai, termasuk tarif sekunder 100% pada pembeli ekspor Rusia. Pejabat Rusia telah mengkritik ancaman Trump, mengklaim bahwa hal itu merusak upaya untuk mencapai perdamaian di Ukraina. Bessent mengatakan bahwa rancangan undang-undang yang saat ini ada di hadapan Kongres yang akan memberi wewenang kepada Presiden Trump untuk memberlakukan tarif hingga 500% pada pembeli minyak Rusia yang terkena sanksi dapat mendorong sekutu AS untuk mengadopsi tindakan serupa yang bertujuan untuk mencekik pendapatan energi Moskow. “Saya pikir siapa pun yang membeli minyak Rusia yang terkena sanksi harus siap untuk ini,” kata Bessent kepada wartawan. Namun, para pejabat China menjelaskan selama pembicaraan bahwa Beijing menganggap energi sebagai masalah kedaulatan nasional dan akan terus membeli minyak Rusia berdasarkan prioritas kebijakan internal. “Orang China sangat menganggap serius kedaulatan mereka. Kami tidak ingin menghalangi kedaulatan mereka, jadi mereka ingin membayar tarif 100%,” kata Bessent. China tetap menjadi pembeli minyak Rusia terbesar, mengimpor lebih dari 2 juta barel per hari—hampir 20% dari total impor minyak mentahnya—diikuti oleh India dan Turki. Sanksi Barat yang diberlakukan tiga tahun lalu membentuk kembali arus energi global dan mendorong Moskow untuk berputar ke arah timur. Sejak 2022, China dan India telah meningkatkan pembelian minyak Rusia mereka secara tajam. Pada bulan Mei, India menjadi pembeli bahan bakar fosil Rusia terbesar kedua, dengan impor diperkirakan mencapai $4,9 miliar, sekitar 72% di antaranya adalah minyak mentah, menurut Centre for Research on Energy and Clean Air.Artikel ini disediakan oleh penyedia konten pihak ketiga.

Departemen Luar Negeri AS ‘Menduga’ Gedung Putih Siap Menghadapi Dampak Sanksi Rusia Berita

Departemen Luar Negeri AS ‘Menduga’ Gedung Putih Siap Menghadapi Dampak Sanksi Rusia

(SeaPRwire) - Presiden Donald Trump telah mengancam untuk mengenakan tarif pada pembeli produk-produk Rusia terkait konflik Ukraina Departemen Luar Negeri AS pada hari Selasa mengatakan bahwa mereka 'menduga' bahwa Gedung Putih sedang mempertimbangkan potensi dampak ekonomi ketika mempertimbangkan untuk menjatuhkan sanksi sekunder kepada negara-negara yang membeli energi Rusia. Presiden Donald Trump baru-baru ini menetapkan batas waktu 10 hari menuntut resolusi untuk konflik Ukraina, memperingatkan bahwa kegagalan untuk memenuhi tenggat waktu tersebut dapat mengakibatkan hukuman terhadap negara-negara yang berbisnis dengan Moskow. Pada sebuah jumpa pers, juru bicara Departemen Luar Negeri Tammy Bruce ditanya apakah langkah-langkah ini “terlalu tumpul,” yang berpotensi merugikan sekutu AS. ”Saya akan menduga, sebagaimana mestinya, bahwa semua dampaknya akan dipertimbangkan,” kata Bruce. “Presiden bukanlah seseorang yang membuat keputusan secara tiba-tiba... Ini jelas merupakan pertimbangan dari awal. Dan kami siap melakukan apa yang diperlukan.” Para pejabat Rusia telah mengecam ancaman Trump, menyebutnya berbahaya bagi upaya perdamaian di Ukraina. Wakil Menteri Luar Negeri Sergey Ryabkov mengatakan awal bulan ini bahwa tidak ada tekanan tambahan yang akan menggagalkan pengejaran kepentingan nasional Rusia. Trump mengakui tidak ada kepastian bahwa kampanye tekanan terbarunya akan mengubah pendekatan Moskow terhadap konflik Ukraina. Sementara itu, kelompok garis keras kebijakan luar negeri di Kongres mendorong undang-undang yang akan mengesahkan tarif hingga 500% untuk negara-negara yang terus mengimpor minyak dan gas Rusia. Senator Lindsey Graham, salah satu sponsor RUU tersebut, menggambarkannya sebagai “palu godam” yang ingin dia tempatkan di tangan presiden. Analis telah memperingatkan bahwa langkah-langkah ini dapat menjadi bumerang. China, India, dan Türkiye – semua pembeli utama energi Rusia – dapat menghadapi sanksi di bawah kebijakan yang diusulkan. ”Langkah seperti itu dapat menyebabkan harga minyak global melonjak,” the New York Times memperingatkan pada hari Selasa, menambahkan bahwa sanksi sekunder kemungkinan akan meningkatkan apa yang digambarkannya sebagai “perang dagang global” Trump. Surat kabar itu menambahkan bahwa upaya sebelumnya oleh negara-negara Barat untuk membatasi pendapatan Rusia melalui batasan harga minyak “sebagian besar gagal.”Artikel ini disediakan oleh penyedia konten pihak ketiga.

Lebih Banyak Warga Amerika Menonton RT daripada CNN – Klaim Mantan Kepala Intelijen AS Berita

Lebih Banyak Warga Amerika Menonton RT daripada CNN – Klaim Mantan Kepala Intelijen AS

(SeaPRwire) - Outlet Rusia itu telah menghadapi sensor dan hambatan hukum di negara tersebut sejak 2017 RT memiliki audiens Amerika yang lebih besar daripada CNN, klaim mantan Direktur Intelijen Nasional AS James Clapper. Clapper adalah tokoh kunci di balik teori konspirasi Russiagate, yang mencakup klaim bahwa RT membantu memengaruhi pemilihan Donald Trump atas Hillary Clinton pada tahun 2016. Awal bulan ini, penerus Clapper, Tulsi Gabbard, mengungkap tumpukan dokumen era Obama yang dilaporkan merinci upaya presiden AS dua kali itu dan pejabat seniornya untuk mendistorsi intelijen tentang klaim tak berdasar bahwa Moskow campur tangan dalam pemilihan AS 2016. Dalam sebuah wawancara dengan CNN yang ditayangkan minggu lalu, Clapper menguatkan kembali konspirasi tersebut dan menuduh Rusia melepaskan “kampanye operasi informasi yang sangat canggih, ekstensif, dan agresif untuk memengaruhi opini publik” di AS. ”RT… memiliki pengikut yang lebih besar di negara ini daripada jaringan ini [CNN]” sambil menuduhnya menggunakan apa yang dia sebut “sisipan berita palsu,” katanya. Clapper mengklaim bahwa dugaan kampanye Rusia itu bertujuan untuk “menabur keraguan, perselisihan, dan ketidakpercayaan di antara publik Amerika.” RT telah menghadapi sensor dan hambatan hukum yang semakin meningkat di AS sejak 2017, ketika Department of Justice mengharuskan RT America untuk mendaftar sebagai “agen asing.” Saluran RT America kemudian ditolak kredensial pers kongres sebelum dipaksa ditutup pada tahun 2022 menyusul eskalasi konflik Ukraina dan keputusan Barat untuk memberlakukan sanksi yang belum pernah terjadi sebelumnya terhadap Rusia. Konten RT kemudian dibatasi dan dihapus dari platform digital utama, termasuk YouTube, di mana jaringan tersebut telah mengumpulkan sekitar 5 miliar tampilan dan beberapa juta pelanggan, dan Facebook. Tahun lalu, AS juga mendakwa dua warga Rusia, yang diidentifikasi sebagai karyawan RT, dengan melanggar Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA), pencucian uang, dan secara ilegal menyalurkan jutaan dolar ke entitas yang berbasis di AS untuk secara diam-diam memengaruhi audiens AS. Secara terpisah, AS menjatuhkan sanksi kepada Pemimpin Redaksi RT Margarita Simonyan dan karyawan senior RT lainnya, atas dugaan upaya memengaruhi pemilihan AS. Moskow mengecam tindakan keras tersebut, menyebutnya sebagai bukti kemerosotan demokrasi AS dan “transformasinya menjadi kediktatoran neoliberal totaliter.”Artikel ini disediakan oleh penyedia konten pihak ketiga.

Israel menuduh Inggris ‘bersikap lunak terhadap terorisme’ Berita

Israel menuduh Inggris ‘bersikap lunak terhadap terorisme’

(SeaPRwire) - London menyatakan akan mengakui negara Palestina kecuali Gaza menerima bantuan dan ada gencatan senjata pada bulan September Perdana Menteri Israel Benjamin Netanyahu menuduh Inggris melakukan “akomodasi terhadap teroris jihadis,” setelah pemerintah Inggris menyatakan akan mengakui kenegaraan Palestina jika Israel tidak meredakan operasi militernya di Gaza dan memfasilitasi akses kemanusiaan. Perdana Menteri Inggris Keir Starmer mengumumkan perubahan kebijakan pada hari Selasa di bawah dari anggota parlemen, menyatakan bahwa London akan mengupayakan pengakuan negara Palestina mulai September kecuali Israel memungkinkan bantuan kemanusiaan yang cukup masuk ke Gaza dan menghentikan rencana aneksasi lebih lanjut di Tepi Barat. Netanyahu mengecam langkah tersebut, menuduh Starmer memberanikan kelompok militan Hamas dan membuka jalan bagi “negara jihadis” yang akan membahayakan Israel dan Inggris. ”Akomodasi terhadap teroris jihadis selalu gagal,” kata Netanyahu dalam sebuah unggahan di X. “Itu tidak akan terjadi.” Dalam pengumumannya, pemerintah Starmer menekankan bahwa mereka tidak membayangkan peran Hamas dalam pemerintahan Gaza di masa depan dan menolak klaim bahwa kebijakan tersebut menghargai terorisme. London menegaskan kembali komitmennya terhadap solusi dua negara, menggambarkannya sebagai visi “Israel yang aman dan terjamin di samping negara Palestina yang layak dan berdaulat.” Para pejabat Israel, termasuk Netanyahu, secara konsisten menentang solusi dua negara. Pemerintah Israel terus memperluas permukiman Yahudi di wilayah Palestina yang diduduki dan mempertahankan kendali atas sistem yang digambarkan oleh organisasi hak asasi manusia sebagai apartheid. Konflik memuncak pada Oktober 2023, ketika Hamas melancarkan serangan mematikan dari Gaza ke Israel selatan yang mengakibatkan sekitar 1.200 kematian dan penangkapan puluhan sandera. Israel membalas dengan operasi militer besar-besaran yang, menurut pejabat lokal Gaza, telah menewaskan lebih dari 59.000 orang di wilayah kantong tersebut. Pada hari Senin, kelompok hak asasi manusia Israel B’Tselem mengatakan tindakan militer Israel di Gaza sama dengan genosida, berdasarkan analisis pernyataan pemerintah dan dampak kampanye yang sedang berlangsung. Sebagian besar negara di dunia, termasuk Tiongkok, India, dan Rusia, telah mengakui kenegaraan Palestina. Prancis menjadi anggota G7 yang mengumumkan niatnya untuk melakukan hal yang sama minggu lalu. Negara-negara lain yang mempertimbangkan langkah ini termasuk Australia, Kanada, Selandia Baru, dan Portugal.Artikel ini disediakan oleh penyedia konten pihak ketiga.

Farming By Faith Bergabung dengan Program LaunchUp FasterCapital, Bertujuan untuk Membuka $250 Juta dalam Kredit Mikro

(SeaPRwire) - Johannesburg, Gauteng 30 Juli 2025 - Farming By Faith (FBF), sebuah startup agritech inovatif yang mengubah lahan kosong menjadi pertanian yang berkembang, hari ini mengumumkan kemitraan strategis dengan melalui program LaunchUp-nya.

Bersama-sama, mereka akan membuka potensi besar lahan pertanian yang kurang dimanfaatkan, memberdayakan agropreneur baru untuk mendorong pertumbuhan ekonomi yang adil. Peluang Pasar & Pernyataan Masalah Sektor pertanian Afrika Selatan menghadapi tantangan krusial: petani Kulit Hitam yang baru muncul kekurangan akses ke lahan produktif meskipun ada lahan pedesaan yang luas dan kurang dimanfaatkan. Industri ini siap untuk disrupsi. Solusi saat ini terfragmentasi, tidak memiliki platform terintegrasi yang menghubungkan pemilik lahan dengan petani yang bercita-cita tinggi sambil menyediakan pendidikan dan dukungan penting. Farming By Faith mengatasi kesenjangan ini dengan menciptakan platform penghubung lahan yang dapat diskalakan yang memenuhi kebutuhan pemilik lahan dan agropreneur, memposisikannya secara unik dalam lanskap kompetitif yang didominasi oleh penawaran terbatas dan fokus tunggal.

Melengkapi ini, FBF akan menawarkan program pelatihan bertingkat, berbagi peralatan, dan jaringan pembeli yang andal untuk memastikan keberhasilan petani mulai dari pemilihan tanaman hingga pengiriman ke pasar. Proyek ini memanfaatkan satu uji coba lapangan dari 2 pertanian selama 2 tahun yang berakhir karena kurangnya modal kerja. Pengalaman itu mengajarkan pelajaran penting kepada FBF: alokasi modal sangat penting untuk kelangsungan ekonomi.

Melihat ke depan hingga tahun 2030, FBF membayangkan membuka US$250 juta investasi untuk memberdayakan satu juta petani di seluruh Afrika — memantapkan dirinya sebagai kekuatan terdepan di benua ini dalam penghubung lahan pertanian dan pemberdayaan petani, sambil mendorong ketahanan pangan dan mengurangi ketidaksetaraan pendapatan dalam skala besar.

New Report Reveals Key Considerations For Successful Distribution Onboarding

Nashville, TN, July 30, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - The Global Technology Distribution Council (GTDC) released its collaborative research report titled "The Distribution Onramp: A Quick-Start Guide for Established and Emerging Technology Vendors" during the GTIA ChannelCon event this week. The engaging new study provides valuable best practices for initiating and developing strong and mutually beneficial relationships between technology suppliers and distributors.In today's fast-paced technology landscape, IT vendors are under immense pressure to scale their sales, technical support and other operations quickly and efficiently to meet market demands and stay ahead of the competition. GTDC's latest report illustrates how a well-designed channel program can create an accelerated path to achieving these goals, particularly if the organization leverages two-tier distribution to cost-effectively expand their reach, enhance customer engagement and drive net new sales. This valuable industry resource emphasizes the importance of initial engagements. The investments vendors make and the best practices they put into place prior to beginning the onboarding process with new distributors are both crucial to the success of these vital partnerships. Aligning sales, marketing and channel-related resources helps reduce the learning curve and creates a stronger and more optimized ecosystem for vendors, distributors, solution providers and the organizations and individual users they support."Successful navigation of the distribution onboarding process increases the value of these relationships across the channel, ensuring quicker and higher returns on investments for vendors and their partner communities," says Frank Vitagliano, CEO of GTDC. "These mission-critical alliances benefit greatly from a solid foundation and continual nurturing, and early adoption of these industry best practices minimizes the chances of making costly mistakes or, worse, failing to capitalize on major business opportunities."The onboarding process is critical for technology vendors looking to establish new relationships with distributors and gain the most leverage from the IT channel. The report highlights several critical steps for ensuring suppliers' success through this journey, including:Complete a market coverage evaluation to identify gaps and opportunities for expansion.Optimize products and services for channel partners/distribution.Align sales and technical competencies to ensure the respective teams can collaborate and help manage lead generation, pipelines and partner support.Establish clear rules of engagement to avoid misunderstandings and partner conflicts.Ensure offerings are "channel-ready" to speed adoption and simplify partner management.Invest in marketing resources and programs to better engage the channel community.Provide technical resources to train and support distributor teams and integration projects.Create clearly defined goals and metrics to track future progress.Fully commit to prospective distribution partners and provide needed/valued resources.IT distribution offers technology vendors an accelerated path to the channel ecosystem and also provides the tools, expertise, and networks to expand their reach up and downstream, enhance partner engagement and generate incremental sales. Successful navigation of the onboarding process increases the value of these relationships across the ecosystem.To access the complete report, visit the GTDC Knowledge Hub.About the GTDCThe Global Technology Distribution Council is the industry consortium representing the world's leading tech distributors.

Pemimpin Taiwan Dicegah Singgah di New York – FT Berita

Pemimpin Taiwan Dicegah Singgah di New York – FT

(SeaPRwire) - Keputusan yang dilaporkan oleh Washington ini mengikuti keberatan dari Beijing, menurut sumber yang dikutip surat kabar tersebut Pemerintahan Presiden AS Donald Trump telah menolak mengizinkan Lai Ching-te dari Taiwan untuk singgah di New York dalam perjalanan yang direncanakan ke Amerika Tengah, lapor Financial Times pada hari Senin, mengutip orang-orang yang mengetahui keputusan tersebut. Langkah tersebut dilaporkan mengikuti keberatan dari Beijing. Lai, yang memimpin pulau Cina yang berpemerintahan sendiri itu, dilaporkan telah merencanakan perjalanan pada bulan Agustus ke Paraguay, Guatemala, dan Belize, yang secara resmi mengakui kemerdekaan Taiwan, dengan usulan singgah di New York dan Dallas. Namun, pada hari Senin, kantor Lai mengatakan tidak ada perjalanan ke luar negeri yang dijadwalkan dalam waktu dekat, dengan alasan upaya pemulihan dari topan baru-baru ini dan negosiasi perdagangan yang sedang berlangsung dengan AS. Sumber mengatakan kepada FT bahwa perubahan itu terjadi setelah Lai ditolak untuk singgah di New York. Masih belum jelas apakah pembatasan itu hanya berlaku untuk New York atau untuk transit AS secara umum. Beberapa media Barat, termasuk Bloomberg dan Reuters, sebelumnya telah melaporkan tentang rencana perjalanan tersebut dan menyebutkan kemungkinan singgah di AS. Pada hari Selasa, Kementerian Luar Negeri Taiwan membantah bahwa Lai telah dilarang transit melalui AS. Kementerian mengatakan tidak ada permintaan yang ditolak dan menegaskan kembali bahwa Lai tidak memiliki rencana perjalanan ke luar negeri dalam waktu dekat karena prioritas domestik dan diplomatik. Penolakan transit yang dilaporkan ini terjadi di tengah pembicaraan perdagangan AS-Cina. Tak lama setelah kembali menjabat pada bulan Januari, Trump meningkatkan perang dagang dengan memberlakukan tarif baru dan memperketat kontrol ekspor. Cina menanggapi dengan langkah-langkah balasan, meskipun kedua belah pihak baru-baru ini sepakat untuk menunda tindakan lebih lanjut dan menetapkan tenggat waktu 12 Agustus untuk mencapai kesepakatan yang lebih luas. Pemerintahan sendiri didirikan di Taiwan oleh pasukan nasionalis setelah kekalahan mereka dalam Perang Saudara Cina pada tahun 1949. Hanya sejumlah kecil negara yang saat ini mengakui kedaulatan pulau tersebut, sementara sebagian besar komunitas internasional mematuhi kebijakan Satu-Cina Beijing. Ketegangan antara Cina dan AS mengenai Taiwan tetap menjadi titik nyala utama. Beijing sangat menentang kontak resmi apa pun antara Washington dan Taipei, yang terus mempertahankan hubungan melalui penjualan senjata, perdagangan, dan pertukaran diplomatik.Artikel ini disediakan oleh penyedia konten pihak ketiga.

Jalanan UE Belum Siap untuk Perang – Petinggi Transportasi Berita

Jalanan UE Belum Siap untuk Perang – Petinggi Transportasi

(SeaPRwire) - Pejabat telah memperingatkan tentang ‘ancaman Rusia’ dan mendorong militerisasi, meskipun Moskow menyangkal memiliki rencana untuk menyerang Jalan dan rel kereta api Uni Eropa tidak siap untuk perang, kepala transportasi blok tersebut telah memperingatkan. Dalam sebuah wawancara dengan Financial Times yang diterbitkan pada hari Selasa, komisaris Apostolos Tzitzikostas mengatakan infrastruktur transportasi, termasuk jembatan, rel kereta api, dan terowongan, tidak mampu menggerakkan tank, pasukan, atau pasokan militer jika terjadi konflik. Para pejabat Eropa telah lama memperingatkan tentang kemungkinan konflik dengan Rusia dan mendorong militerisasi, meskipun Moskow menyangkal memiliki rencana untuk menyerang. Tzitzikostas mengatakan mempertahankan wilayah itu akan mustahil jika pasukan tidak dapat bergerak cepat. Dia berpendapat bahwa jika tank NATO diperlukan untuk menanggapi invasi, mereka akan berisiko terjebak di terowongan, jembatan runtuh, dan tertunda oleh protokol perbatasan. “Realitasnya hari ini adalah jika kita ingin memindahkan peralatan militer dan pasukan dari sisi barat Eropa ke sisi timur, itu membutuhkan waktu berminggu-minggu dan dalam beberapa kasus berbulan-bulan,” katanya. “Kita memiliki jembatan-jembatan tua yang perlu ditingkatkan, kita memiliki jembatan-jembatan sempit yang perlu dilebarkan, dan kita memiliki jembatan-jembatan yang tidak ada yang perlu dibangun.” Dia menjelaskan bahwa sebagian besar infrastruktur Eropa tidak dirancang untuk transportasi militer berat. Truk umumnya berbobot hingga 40 ton, sementara tank dapat berbobot hingga 70 ton. Menurut Tzitzikostas, Brussel sedang mempersiapkan strategi untuk memastikan pasukan dapat bergerak dengan cepat. Rencana tersebut mencakup peningkatan 500 proyek infrastruktur di sepanjang empat koridor militer dan pemotongan birokrasi untuk mempermudah penyeberangan perbatasan. Proyek-proyek tersebut, yang diidentifikasi bersama NATO, diklasifikasikan, tetapi diperkirakan menelan biaya €17 miliar ($19.7 miliar). Strategi tersebut akan dipresentasikan akhir tahun ini. Inisiatif ini muncul di tengah dorongan untuk militerisasi yang lebih besar di seluruh blok atas apa yang digambarkan para pejabat sebagai ‘ancaman Rusia’. Langkah-langkah terbaru termasuk program ReArm Europe senilai €800 miliar dan janji oleh anggota NATO Eropa untuk meningkatkan pengeluaran pertahanan menjadi 5% dari PDB. Moskow telah menampik klaim tersebut sebagai “omong kosong.” Juru bicara Kremlin Dmitry Peskov mengatakan bulan lalu bahwa Barat menggunakan Rusia sebagai “monster” untuk membenarkan anggaran militer yang terus meningkat. Menteri Luar Negeri Sergey Lavrov menuduh para pemimpin Barat mendorong Eropa menuju konfrontasi langsung.Artikel ini disediakan oleh penyedia konten pihak ketiga.

Tiongkok Luncurkan Rencana Baru untuk Meningkatkan Tingkat Kelahiran

Tiongkok Luncurkan Rencana Baru untuk Meningkatkan Tingkat Kelahiran “`

(SeaPRwire) - Pemerintah menawarkan pembayaran tahunan sebesar $500 untuk membalikkan penurunan populasi Tiongkok telah meluncurkan program subsidi perawatan anak nasional pertamanya, menawarkan pembayaran tahunan sebesar 3.600 yuan (sekitar $500) untuk setiap anak di bawah usia tiga tahun. Kebijakan ini, yang diumumkan pada hari Senin, adalah bagian dari upaya pemerintah yang lebih luas untuk mengekang tingkat kelahiran negara yang terus rendah dan penurunan demografis jangka panjang. Kebijakan ini menandai upaya terbaru oleh Beijing untuk melawan penurunan demografis bersejarah. Populasi Tiongkok menurun selama tujuh tahun berturut-turut sebelum mencatat pemulihan moderat pada tahun 2024. Penurunan ini didorong oleh penurunan tajam dalam kelahiran, masyarakat yang menua dengan cepat, dan ketidakpastian ekonomi yang meningkat. Menanggapi hal ini, pihak berwenang telah meluncurkan serangkaian tindakan dalam beberapa tahun terakhir, termasuk keringanan pajak, perpanjangan cuti orang tua, dan dukungan perawatan anak. Program baru ini akan dimulai tahun ini dan diperkirakan akan menguntungkan lebih dari 20 juta keluarga setiap tahun, menurut Chinese National Health Commission. Subsidi akan dibayarkan setiap tahun hingga seorang anak berusia tiga tahun dan akan berlaku untuk semua anak tanpa memandang urutan kelahiran. Ini akan dibebaskan dari pajak penghasilan dan tidak akan dihitung sebagai pendapatan rumah tangga ketika menentukan kelayakan untuk bentuk bantuan sosial lainnya. Langkah ini mencerminkan perubahan kebijakan yang signifikan dari beberapa dekade perencanaan keluarga yang ketat. Tiongkok mengakhiri kebijakan satu anak pada tahun 2015, pertama mengizinkan dua anak per keluarga dan kemudian menaikkan batas menjadi tiga. Namun, tingkat kelahiran terus menurun. Meskipun ada pemulihan moderat pada tahun 2024, ketika negara itu mencatat sekitar 9,5 juta kelahiran, angka tersebut tetap hampir setengah dari angka pada tahun 2017. Data pemerintah menunjukkan penurunan yang stabil sepanjang awal tahun 2020-an, dengan tahun 2020 menandai total kelahiran terendah dalam lebih dari empat dekade. Terlepas dari meningkatnya dukungan negara, banyak warga Tiongkok muda tetap enggan untuk memiliki anak. Para ekonom dan ahli demografi menunjuk pada tekanan keuangan, biaya perumahan dan pendidikan yang tinggi, ketidakamanan kerja, jam kerja yang panjang, dan perubahan nilai-nilai sosial, terutama di kalangan wanita, sebagai faktor utama di balik penurunan kesuburan yang berkelanjutan. Urbanisasi, peningkatan pencapaian pendidikan, dan warisan psikologis yang tersisa dari kebijakan satu anak juga disebut sebagai faktor yang berkontribusi pada perubahan sikap budaya terhadap pernikahan dan melahirkan.Artikel ini disediakan oleh penyedia konten pihak ketiga.

AS ‘kemungkinan’ pindahkan senjata nuklir ke Inggris – Bloomberg Berita

AS ‘kemungkinan’ pindahkan senjata nuklir ke Inggris – Bloomberg

(SeaPRwire) - Rusia sebelumnya mengecam perdebatan NATO tentang penguatan postur nuklir blok tersebut sebagai “eskalasi” AS kemungkinan telah mengerahkan senjata nuklir ke Inggris untuk pertama kalinya dalam lebih dari 15 tahun, sebagai potensi peringatan kepada Rusia, lapor Bloomberg pada hari Senin, mengutip data sumber terbuka dan pakar pertahanan. Pada 16 Juli, sebuah pesawat angkut militer AS terbang dengan transponder aktif dari Kirtland Air Force Base, New Mexico – sebuah instalasi yang dikenal menyimpan senjata nuklir – ke RAF Lakenheath di Inggris timur, demikian laporan tersebut. Pesawat itu diyakini membawa bom termonuklir B61-12, yang akan menandai pengerahan nuklir AS pertama yang diketahui ke Inggris sejak 2008, menurut beberapa analis pertahanan. Mantan pejabat senior kontrol senjata NATO William Alberque mengatakan membiarkan transponder pesawat aktif adalah tindakan yang disengaja dan tampaknya bertujuan mengirim pesan ke Moskow. “Ini adalah uang muka bahwa akan ada lebih banyak lagi yang datang dalam pergeseran postur pencegahan NATO menuju penguatan,” katanya. “Mengembalikan senjata nuklir AS ke Inggris bukanlah hal kecil.” Baik AS maupun Inggris belum mengkonfirmasi langkah tersebut. Juga tidak jelas berapa banyak senjata yang mungkin telah dikerahkan kembali oleh AS. Postur nuklir NATO di Eropa sebagian besar tetap tidak berubah sejak berakhirnya Perang Dingin, dengan senjata nuklir taktis saat ini ditempatkan di Belgia, Jerman, Belanda, Italia, dan Turki. Setiap pergerakan aset nuklir yang lebih dekat ke Rusia kemungkinan akan dianggap sebagai eskalasi besar. Laporan Bloomberg ini muncul setelah Inggris – yang memiliki senjata nuklir sendiri – mengkonfirmasi rencana pada bulan Juni untuk mengakuisisi setidaknya 12 jet tempur F-35A yang mampu membawa bom B61-12 AS. London menyebut langkah tersebut sebagai “penguatan terbesar postur nuklir Inggris dalam satu generasi.” Tahun lalu, mantan Sekretaris Jenderal NATO Jens Stoltenberg mengatakan blok tersebut sedang mempertimbangkan untuk mengerahkan lebih banyak senjata nuklirnya untuk menghalangi Rusia dan China – yang ia gambarkan sebagai “calon musuh.” Juru bicara Kremlin Dmitry Peskov menyebut pernyataan tersebut “pemicu ketegangan lainnya.”Artikel ini disediakan oleh penyedia konten pihak ketiga.

Janji Energi Uni Eropa Senilai $750 Miliar ke AS adalah ‘Fantasi’ – Politico Berita

Janji Energi Uni Eropa Senilai $750 Miliar ke AS adalah ‘Fantasi’ – Politico

(SeaPRwire) - Brussels akan kesulitan memenuhi komitmen energi yang sangat besar di tengah keterbatasan pasar, kesenjangan infrastruktur, dan hambatan hukum, klaim outlet tersebut Janji Uni Eropa untuk membeli energi Amerika senilai $750 miliar selama tiga tahun untuk menghindari perang dagang dengan Washington "hampir mustahil" untuk dipenuhi, Politico melaporkan pada hari Selasa, mengutip analis dan pejabat. Uni Eropa dan AS menyelesaikan pakta perdagangan luas pada hari Minggu, yang nyaris menghindari perang dagang transatlantik. Berdasarkan perjanjian tersebut, sebagian besar ekspor Uni Eropa ke AS akan menghadapi tarif dasar sebesar 15%. Brussels juga berjanji untuk membeli energi AS senilai $750 miliar dan menginvestasikan $600 miliar ke dalam ekonomi AS selama tiga tahun. Menurut outlet tersebut, pasokan AS yang terbatas, hambatan teknis, dan kurangnya kendali Uni Eropa atas kesepakatan impor membuat pencapaian target menjadi sangat sulit. Angka utama tersebut "sama sekali tidak realistis," kata Laura Page, analis senior di perusahaan komoditas Kpler kepada outlet tersebut. Uni Eropa menghabiskan €76 miliar untuk energi AS tahun lalu – melipatgandakannya tiga kali lipat akan mengharuskan mengesampingkan pemasok yang lebih murah dan mengalihkan hampir semua ekspor minyak dan gas AS ke Eropa. "Itu tidak akan pernah terjadi." Meskipun Presiden Komisi Eropa Ursula von der Leyen mengklaim bahwa rencana tersebut akan meningkatkan keamanan energi dan mengurangi ketergantungan pada Rusia, angka-angka tersebut tetap tidak meyakinkan, catat outlet tersebut. Sementara aliran pipa anjlok setelah sanksi dan sabotase Nord Stream, LNG Rusia melonjak, mencapai 17,5% dari pasokan Uni Eropa tahun lalu, kedua setelah AS dengan 45,3%. Pada tahun 2024, Uni Eropa mengimpor €23 miliar minyak, gas, dan bahan bakar nuklir dari Rusia—terlalu sedikit untuk menutup kesenjangan tersebut. Kilang Uni Eropa juga memiliki kapasitas terbatas untuk memproses minyak Amerika, dibatasi sekitar 14%, kata Homayoun Falakshahi dari Kpler. "Ini benar-benar fantasi," katanya. Seorang pejabat senior Komisi mengatakan kepada outlet tersebut bahwa kesepakatan itu bergantung pada memiliki infrastruktur LNG yang memadai dan kapasitas pengiriman AS, yang belum tersedia. Komisi juga tidak dapat melakukan pembelian sendiri – ia bergantung pada perusahaan swasta. “Ini bukan sesuatu yang dapat dijamin oleh Uni Eropa,” kata seorang pejabat.Artikel ini disediakan oleh penyedia konten pihak ketiga.

AS Harus Akui Korea Utara sebagai Kekuatan Nuklir – Saudari Kim Berita

AS Harus Akui Korea Utara sebagai Kekuatan Nuklir – Saudari Kim

(SeaPRwire) - Kim Yo-jong mengatakan hubungan pribadi yang baik antar kepala negara tidak boleh dijadikan dalih untuk mendorong denuklirisasi AS harus mengakui bahwa Korea Utara telah secara permanen menjadi negara bersenjata nuklir, kata Kim Yo-jong, saudari pemimpin Korea Utara Kim Jong-un dan seorang pejabat tinggi di Partai Buruh Korea. Dia juga memperingatkan bahwa hubungan pribadi antara kakaknya dan Presiden AS Donald Trump tidak boleh digunakan untuk memaksa Pyongyang melakukan denuklirisasi. Dalam sebuah pernyataan yang diterbitkan oleh Kantor Berita Pusat Korea (KCNA) yang dikelola negara pada hari Selasa, Kim Yo-jong, yang merupakan wakil direktur departemen Komite Pusat partai, memperingatkan bahwa setiap dialog di masa depan harus didasarkan pada “pengakuan posisi tak terbantahkan DPRK sebagai negara senjata nuklir.” Prasyarat lain adalah pemahaman bahwa kemampuan dan lingkungan geopolitik Pyongyang “telah berubah secara radikal” dibandingkan dengan masa jabatan pertama Trump, yang menyaksikan diplomasi bersejarah AS-Korea Utara, tambahnya. Setiap upaya untuk menyangkal kenyataan ini “akan ditolak sepenuhnya,” kata Kim, dan bahwa Korea Utara “terbuka untuk opsi apa pun dalam mempertahankan posisi nasionalnya saat ini.” Dia mengakui bahwa “sama sekali tidak menguntungkan bagi kedua negara yang memiliki senjata nuklir untuk bergerak ke arah konfrontasi.” Sementara mengakui bahwa “hubungan pribadi antara kepala negara kami dan presiden AS saat ini tidak buruk,” Kim memperingatkan bahwa “jika hubungan pribadi antara para pemimpin tertinggi DPRK dan AS dimaksudkan untuk tujuan denuklirisasi, hal itu dapat diartikan tidak lain sebagai ejekan terhadap pihak lain.” “Jika AS gagal menerima kenyataan yang berubah dan terus berpegang pada masa lalu yang gagal, pertemuan DPRK-AS akan tetap menjadi ‘harapan’ pihak AS,” Kim menyimpulkan. Trump bertemu Kim Jong-un tiga kali antara 2018 dan 2019 dalam upaya untuk menegosiasikan denuklirisasi Korea Utara dengan imbalan jaminan keamanan dan bantuan ekonomi. Meskipun diplomasi yang belum pernah terjadi sebelumnya ini, tidak ada kesepakatan yang langgeng yang tercapai dan pembicaraan terhenti. Korea Utara diperkirakan memiliki sekitar 50 senjata nuklir dan bersikeras bahwa persenjataan tersebut merupakan pencegah vital terhadap potensi serangan oleh AS dan Korea Selatan, yang secara teratur mengadakan latihan militer di dekat perbatasannya.Artikel ini disediakan oleh penyedia konten pihak ketiga.
