加沙停火在致命破坏后动摇
2025-10-20
| Israel carried out a wave of strikes in southern Gaza in what it said was retaliation for a Hamas attack on its troops. The breach in the barely week-old ceasefire left two Israeli soldiers and 44 Palestinians dead. Both sides said they were resuming the ceasefire after the flare-up of violence that each blamed on the other. The ceasefire was already on knife-edge with two of its key provisions -- release of deceased hostages by Hamas and entry of humanitarian aid into the enclave – proceeding much slower than expected and no progress on the next steps of President Donald Trump's peace plan, which include a transitional outside body to administer Gaza. | |

中国驻美大使呼吁“回归理性”
2025-10-17
| Chinese Ambassador to the US Xie Feng urged Washington to "return to reason" and "stop applying maximum pressure" on China, warning that "a trade war serves no one's interest in the end." He said China is not looking for a fight but won't stand by idly if its national interests are threatened, and he called on the US to resolve differences through negotiation and not go down the "old path" of escalating tensions.
Meanwhile, the Trump administration said it will urge allies in Europe and Asia to decouple their supply chains from China as quickly as possible, with US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent calling Beijing an "unreliable" trading partner. The rhetoric is the latest US salvo against China's announced tightening of export controls on rare earth minerals critical to industrial production. "China's actions have once again demonstrated the risk of being dependent on them," Bessent said. "This is China versus the world." |

特朗普将赴匈牙利会晤普京
2025-10-17
| US President Donald Trump said he will meet Vladimir Putin in Budapest to discuss the war in Ukraine after a more than two-hour phone call initiated by the Russian president, but no date was given. The announcement came a day before Trump is due to meet Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky at the White House. Plans for the meeting in Hungary come two months after a summit between Trump and Putin in Alaska produced no momentum toward a negotiated end to the war. Trump, fresh from success brokering a ceasefire in Gaza, has recently hinted the US may supply Ukraine with Tomahawk long-range missiles, which have the capability of striking Moscow.
US efforts to force Russia to the negotiating table by curtailing global purchases of its oil and gas that it says finance the war gained support after the UK added Chinese refiner Yulong Petrochemical and Shandong port operators Jingang, Baogang International and Haixin to its sanctions list. In China, the world's largest buyer of Russian energy, the Foreign Ministry condemned London's action, saying Beijing "firmly opposes unilateral sanctions." The US earlier this year slapped a punitive tariff on India, the second-largest buyer of Russian oil. On Thursday, Trump said Indian Prime Minister Narenda Modi told him oil purchases will cease, but New Delhi said it isn't aware of the conversation. |

中美就船舶与大豆问题交锋
2025-10-15
| China added five US subsidiaries of South Korean shipbuilder Hanwha Ocean to its sanctions list over their alleged involvement in Washington's probe into the Chinese shipping industry, the Commerce Ministry said in a statement.
The sanctions took effect on Tuesday, the same day as Washington and China rolled out tit-for-tat port fees on one another's owned, operated or built ships docking at their ports. President Donald Trump has stated his ambition to curb China's global dominance in shipping. China holds a 53 percent market share in shipbuilding, followed by South Korea. The US accounts for only about 0.1 percent. Bilateral quarrels also extended to agriculture on Tuesday as Trump lashed out again at China's shift in soybean purchases this year to South American from US farmers, calling the snub "economically hostile." In turn, Trump said, the US may terminate all imports of cooking oil from China. |

裂缝危及加沙脆弱停火
2025-10-15
| Israel said it will restrict flow of humanitarian aid into Gaza until all 28 bodies of hostages who died in captivity there are returned. So far, eight remains have been returned, along with all 20 living hostages. Hamas, which earlier said some hostage bodies may be buried under rubble from Israeli bombing, has requested heavy machinery to help in search and recovery efforts. The White House also ramped up pressure on Hamas, with President Donald Trump saying, "If they don't disarm, we will disarm them." Since Israeli troops began withdrawing from Gaza City under the ceasefire agreement, Hamas has killed at least 33 members of rival gangs and suspected Israeli collaborators, Reuters reported. | |

Nexperia遭出口禁令打击，股价持续下挫
2025-10-15
| Netherland-based chipmaker Nexperia, a subsidiary of China's Wingtech, said on Tuesday that the Chinese government banned it from exporting goods from China four days after Dutch authorities seized temporary control of the company, citing management concerns. In its first statement since the Dutch takeover on September 30, Nexperia said it is seeking an exemption from China's countermeasure. The Dutch complaint against Nexperia apparently revolves around alleged improprieties by Zhang Xuezheng, Wingtech founder and Nexperia executive director. But analysts said the Dutch action may also be related to the parent company's presence on a US trade blacklist in a long-arm extension of the US-China trade war. Once part of Dutch electronics firm Philips, Nexperia was acquired by Wingtech in 2018 for US$3.6 billion. Wingtech's Shanghai-listed shares have plunged 10 percent each of the past two days. | |
