特朗普質疑北約是否會保衛美國
(SeaPRwire) - 儘管華盛頓為該聯盟「花費了巨額資金」，美國總統仍對集體防禦條款表示擔憂 美國總統唐納·川普質疑，如果美國遭受攻擊，北約成員國是否會前來援助，同時強調華盛頓仍將保衛其在該聯盟中的盟友。 川普週二在一場簡報會上發言，將自己譽為北約的主要資助者，並回憶起在他任內，聯盟成員國承諾將國防開支提高到國內生產總值的5%。他聲稱：「我為北約所做的貢獻比任何在世或已故的人都多。」 然而，川普對北約的防禦承諾表示擔憂。「我看到了所有情況，但北約也必須公平對待我們。我對北約最大的擔憂是，我們在北約身上花費了巨額資金，我知道我們會去救援他們，但我真的非常懷疑他們是否會來救援我們。」 北約創始條約第5條規定，對一個成員國的武裝攻擊被視為對所有成員國的攻擊，但它讓每個國家採取「其認為必要的行動」，包括使用武力。該條款僅被援引過一次，即在2001年9月11日美國遭受襲擊後，當時聯盟支持了美國的反恐行動。如果一個北約成員國遭到另一個成員國的攻擊，則不適用此集體防禦條款。 川普發表此番言論之際，正與歐洲北約成員國因他推動收購丹麥自治領土格陵蘭島，以及他威脅以關稅施壓支持丹麥的北約國家而陷入僵局。儘管川普聲稱美國出於國家安全原因需要該島，但歐洲國家已予以抵制，並警告這可能導致「危險的螺旋式下降」並侵蝕聯盟的團結。 《每日郵報》本月稍早報導，川普已下令制定一項潛在入侵格陵蘭島的計劃，消息人士警告這可能導致「北約從內部被摧毀」。本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈，覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者，以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

時隔47年，這部你從未聽過的最硬核科幻劇集即將重啟
BBC(SeaPRwire) - 當有人提起1970年代關於一群反抗者對抗邪惡、極權太空政權的科幻作品時，你的腦海幾乎肯定會立刻浮現原版的《星際大戰》。如果沒有，你可能會想到《星艦迷航記》，甚至是電視和電影版的《攔截時空禁區》。但1970年代最奇特、最不為人知的科幻反抗劇，無疑是《Blake's 7》。該劇由泰瑞·內森（賜予我們「戴立克」的人）創作，於1978年首播時可謂領先時代。而現在，在將近五十年後，它終於要回歸了。《Blake's 7》的重啟正在進行中，而且就像原版劇集一樣，它與《超時空博士》有所關聯。以下是我們目前所知，以及為何這對渴望看到類似《安道爾》那種顛覆性新型太空歌劇的粉絲來說，是個絕佳的消息。根據 Deadline 報導，曾執導兩集廣受好評的《最後生還者》和三集《超時空博士》的彼得·霍爾，將與製片人馬修·鮑許和傑森·海格-埃勒里一同重啟《Blake's 7》。該劇將由 Multitude Productions 製作，Deadline 報導稱這是一家「以類型劇為基礎」的製作公司，暗示未來可能會有更多新的科幻劇集來自這個團隊。對於不熟悉的人來說，《Blake's 7》講述了布雷克（最初由加雷斯·托馬斯飾演）領導「解放者號」船員對抗壓迫性的「聯邦」的故事。「7」指的是船上的其他成員，儘管他們在劇集四季的過程中有所更迭。事實上，布雷克本人在第二季之後就不再是常駐角色。原版《Blake's 7》的兩名船員。| Radio Times/Radio Times/Getty Images該劇始於一個太空越獄故事，隨後演變成一集接一集的系列劇，講述我們的英雄們對抗聯邦地球管理局的暴政及其他相關惡勢力的零星戰鬥。儘管《Blake's 7》的製作價值即使以當時的標準來看也很簡陋，但其前提設定和氛圍感卻非常超前。以現代感重啟這個概念，霍爾和他的合作者們手中可能握有一部熱門作品。當羅納德·D·摩爾和大衛·艾克在2003年重啟《星際大爭霸》時，那還是一個奇特、不受重視的科幻系列。時至今日，那次重啟可以說已經超越了原版，並成為21世紀偉大科幻作品的代名詞。同樣的事情會發生在《Blake's 7》身上嗎？距離上一次有英國邪典科幻劇被重啟，已經超過二十年了，那要追溯到《超時空博士》在2005年回歸的時候。雖然更為冷門，但《Blake's 7》很可能處於相同境地：擁有足夠堅實的系列基礎讓老派粉絲關心，同時又有充足的空間以新想法、新角色，當然還有現代化的預算來重塑這個系列。如果新的《Blake's 7》能夠成功整合並發揮原版劇集的潛力，我們可能正在見證下一部具有社會相關性的科幻劇的開端，而且希望它能比《安道爾》持續更久。本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈，覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者，以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。 原版《Blake's 7》現已推出藍光版，並可在 Apple TV、Prime Video 及其他平台租借觀看。
8年後，一位被低估的守護者可能首次亮相MCU
Netflix(SeaPRwire) - Netflix的漫威影集是否屬於漫威電影宇宙的正典，這個問題仍然模糊不清，但如果《夜魔俠：重生》證明了什麼，那就是粉絲們其實並不在意。查理·考克斯（Charlie Cox）能夠……這本身就是一項大多數人認為永遠不會發生的壯舉，而《重生》重新定義了夜魔俠及其……的可能性。克里斯滕·麗特（Krysten Ritter）現在確定將在《重生》第二季中再次飾演潔西卡·瓊斯（Jessica Jones），據報導，漫威電視正在……真正的《捍衛者聯盟》重聚。隨著《重生》已經讓這支街頭超級團隊的一半成員重聚，這是否意味著邁克·柯爾特（Mike Colter）飾演的盧克·凱奇（Luke Cage）和芬·瓊斯（Finn Jones）飾演的鐵拳正在待命呢？瓊斯已經表達了濃厚的回歸意願，但柯爾特一直含糊其辭。「之前我沒給任何人希望，」他最近在……節目上露面時說。然而，隨著一個有希望的進展，我們可能更接近看到他重新回到漫威電影宇宙（MCU）了。離開近十年後，盧克·凱奇會添置一些新的連帽衫嗎？ | Netflix「我進行了一些討論，就說到這裡吧，」柯爾特說。他沒有透露這些討論的具體性質，但這位演員看起來確實對在近10年後有可能重返這個角色感到興奮。柯爾特告訴斯托克曼（Stockman），八年前《盧克·凱奇》被取消時，他很滿意地離開了這部影集。「拍完的時候……我喜歡飾演盧克·凱奇，但我也喜歡做其他事情，」他透露。從那以後，他確實一直很忙，主演了……以及像《機密航班》（Plane）這樣的電影。然而，在離開了那段時間後，柯爾特似乎終於準備好回歸這個角色了。「現在我覺得我已經到了一個階段，我會想，『有些事情還沒完成，』」柯爾特說。「而且，你知道的，夜魔俠回來了。潔西卡回來了。所以我會說，我們現在處於一個更好的位置，能讓這件事比我們預想的更快實現。拭目以待吧。」盧克·凱奇會在《重生》第二季中出現嗎？也許不會。但隨著……的傳言甚囂塵上，我們可能很快也會看到柯爾特飾演的這位刀槍不入的英雄回歸。本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈，覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者，以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

Capable of connecting to the large cruise ships that dock at Osanbashi, this is MHI-TC's first delivery of a mobile MMB.The MMB protects passengers from inclement weather and temperature, ensuring safe, secure, and comfortable passenger movement. In addition, passengers do not need to descend to the wharf, enhancing security and making more effective use of wharf space. The autonomous driving function of the mobile MMB was designed by MHI-TC by applying technology developed for the company's fully automated docking system for airport passenger boarding bridges (PBBs). The main characteristics are as follows.Features of the Mobile MMB Developed by MHI-TC1. 16-wheel independent steering control Mobility is made possible by eight-wheeled, independently controlled steering units at the front and rear of the MMB. These steering controls allow the bridge to turn at the end of the pier, so it can potentially operate on both the Shinko side and Yamashita side of the wharf.2. GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) automated drivingThe mobile MMB is equipped with an automated driving function utilizing GNSS. This autonomous driving function is based on technology developed for the fully automated docking system for airport PBBs.3. Flexible docking systemThe flexible docking system is adaptable to different docking positions on the terminal side, and different passenger access door positions on the ship side.4. Self-generated powerThe front and rear driving units on the MMB are each equipped with generators, making an external power supply unnecessary. As an environmental feature, it is possible to switch to a land-based power supply when in use as a bridge.5. Trackless drivingSince the MMB does not need rails or other tracks, the wharf can be used efficiently for cargo handling and the passage of related vehicles.6. Move/Standby functionWhen not in use, the MMB can move to a position where it will not be in the way.7. Universal DesignFollowing the design philosophy of passenger boarding bridges, the mobile MMB has a gently sloping ramp for passengers to move between the terminal and the ship.The Port of Yokohama opened in 1859, and the current Osanbashi Yokohama International Passenger Terminal was completed in 2002. It is the port of registry for the cruise ships ASUKAⅡ and ASUKAⅢ, and one of the top ports in Japan for the number of cruise ship visits. Osanbashi Yokohama International Passenger Terminal is also a tourist attraction, visited by more than three million people annually.MHI-TC will continue to contribute to the safe and smooth operation of ships through the manufacture and delivery of mobile MMBs.About MHI GroupMitsubishi Heavy Industries (MHI) Group is one of the world’s leading industrial groups, spanning energy, smart infrastructure, industrial machinery, aerospace and defense.

From Computing Chips to Physical AI: Nobel Laureate Hassabis’ Trillion-Dollar Paradigm Forecast and 51WORLD’s (6651.HK) Industry Breakthrough
HONG KONG, January 21, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – In 2026, the artificial intelligence (AI) industry reached another critical turning point. Demis Hassabis, Nobel Prize winner and CEO of Google DeepMind, made a pivotal assertion: the true trillion-dollar opportunity in AI lies not in computing chips, but in “Physical AI” - systems capable of perceiving, understanding, and transforming the real world. Having earned a Nobel Prize for his breakthrough work on AlphaFold, which validated AI’s scientific value, Hassabis’ latest outlook has attracted widespread attention in capital markets. It has also brought 51WORLD (6651.HK), a Hong Kong-listed company focused on Physical AI, into the spotlight.Hassabis pointed out that current AI faces a bottleneck of "intelligence fragmentation": while excelling at digital tasks such as text generation, it struggles to grasp basic physical laws like gravity and spatial continuity. The missing "world model" stands as the final barrier to achieving Artificial General Intelligence (AGI). More critically, the poor adaptability of existing data formats leads to computing power waste and low energy efficiency, making energy supply a potential core variable in future AI competition. Physical AI, by constructing a digital environment that closely mirrors reality, holds the key to resolving this series of challenges.As China's first listed company specializing in Physical AI, 51WORLD's strategic layout aligns perfectly with this trend. Deeply rooted in the fields of digital twin and simulation, the company has independently developed the AES Digital Twin Base and 51Sim Simulation Platform, establishing the core infrastructure for Physical AI. The implementation of Physical AI requires breaking through three key elements: synthetic data, spatial intelligence models, and simulation training platforms. Leveraging its massive 3D asset library and 3DGS/4DGS reconstruction technology, 51WORLD has achieved 90% authenticity and 100% scene controllability for synthetic data, providing AI with data support that adheres to physical laws.Its AES Base enables full-scale replication—from micro-components to macro-cities—endowing AI with "physical intuition." Combined with the Clonova Interaction Platform and Aperdata Implementation Platform, it has created a closed loop from digital cognition to physical execution. In embodied intelligence, the ultimate application of Physical AI, 51WORLD has delivered tangible results: it empowers over 100 global intelligent driving original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), Tier 1 suppliers, testing institutions, universities, and research institutes with closed-loop simulation training solutions, helping clients build safe, efficient, and mass-producible verification systems for intelligent driving systems.51WORLD's resilience stems from its commitment to underlying technologies. During the previous R&D cycle, the company established a leading position in China's Physical AI market. With a new round of large-scale R&D investment in synthetic data, spatial intelligence models, and simulation training platforms, it has solved the cross-scenario generalization challenge of Physical AI—aligning seamlessly with Hassabis' vision of a universal world model. Financial data shows sustained strong revenue growth for the company, and the explosive demand for the 51Sim Platform underscores the industry's urgent need for high-reliability Physical AI simulation technology.Hassabis predicts that over the next five years, AI will enter the era of automated experimentation, requiring digital environments that accurately simulate physical parameters. This aligns closely with 51WORLD's direction of evolving toward a "universal world model" and integrating generative AI. Amid the wave of AI transitioning from the digital world to the physical world, 51WORLD—equipped with technical accumulation and scenario implementation capabilities—is emerging as a core participant and leader in this trillion-dollar track.Beijing 51WORLD Digital Twin Technology Co., Ltd., [HKSE:6651], https://www.51world.com.cn Copyright 2026 JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

90年後，一位恐怖傳奇最被忽略的科幻驚悚片值得被記起
Snap/Shutterstock(SeaPRwire) - 波利斯·卡洛夫（Boris Karloff）是電影史上最具代表性且受尊崇的恐怖明星/生物演員之一，負責創造出一些史上最令人難忘的怪物。當然必須提到科學怪人怪物和木乃伊，但卡洛夫在近50年的電影生涯中，驚人地參演了1974部電影。他的角色從1919年連續劇《閃電騎士》（Lightning Rider）中的臨時演員，到他的最後一部美國電影，彼得·博丹諾維奇（Peter Bogdanovich）1968年的驚悚片《目標》（Targets）。卡洛夫擁有令人印象深刻的情感範圍和令人難忘的強烈表現力，他的讚譽廣為傳頌，但他其中一部最佳電影卻可惜被他知名度更高的作品所掩蓋。是時候重新回顧1936年那部極為被忽略的環球出品電影《The Invisible Ray》的遺產了。這部電影以天文學家亞諾什·魯克博士（卡洛夫飾演）為中心，他研發了一台據稱可以遠遠望向深空光線的望遠鏡，甚至可以窺見地球的過去。他邀請持懷疑態度的同事貝內特博士（贝拉·卢戈西（Bela Lugosi）飾）、弗朗西斯·史蒂文斯爵士（華特·金福德（Walter Kingsford）飾）及其妻子阿拉貝拉夫人（比尤拉·邦迪（Beulah Bondi）飾），以及她的侄子羅納德·德雷克（弗兰克·勞頓（Frank Lawton）飾）來見證他對望遠鏡和可以「讀取」光線記錄信息的裝置的測試。測試成功，這引發貝內特博士和弗朗西斯·史蒂文斯爵士邀請魯克博士參加一次探險，在那裡他們發現了一塊古老的隕石。魯克暴露在它未被發現的輻射「X輻射」下，這導致他發光並擁有致命的破壞性觸摸。貝內特博士研製出一種血清，可以減緩輻射的毒性影響，但暴露仍然扭曲了魯克的心智。他同時發現貝內特博士和史蒂文斯爵士已將隕石樣本帶到國際會議上，以防被壟斷，而且他的妻子戴安娜（弗朗西絲·德雷克（Frances Drake）飾）與羅納德私奔了。被輻射逼瘋的他展開報復任務，要殺死探險隊成員，而懷疑的貝內特博士緊追不捨。雖然卡洛夫仍以他對一些電影中最持久的怪物的傑出演繹而聞名，但他飾演魯克博士的表現也應被納入討論。在這部電影中，他從一個 bitter 的科學家轉變為受傷的丈夫，然後變成一個單狂殺人機器，為這個需要他在黑暗中發光的角色注入驚人的細節。卡洛夫的台詞演繹在此表現卓越（「我可以毀滅一個國家，所有國家」，他反思自己新獲得的力量時說），並以真正悲劇性的大結局而顯著，因為魯克最愛的人正是置他於死地的人。盧戈西和卡洛夫第三次也是最後一次對峙。 | Universal/Kobal/Shutterstock《The Invisible Ray》本身基於各種原因在電影史上佔有獨特的地位。在卡洛夫和盧戈西因《科學怪人》、《德古拉》和其他怪物經典而成為全國名人後，環球將這對搭檔配對拍攝了另外三部電影：恐怖喜劇《黑貓》（1934）、受愛倫·坡啟發的《渡鴉》（The Raven），以及《The Invisible Ray》。作為這三部的最後一次合作，《Ray》是他們傑出職業生涯中的里程碑，他們有著出色的互動。隨著魯克在殺戮狂潮中變得更具威脅性，贝拉·卢戈西飾演的貝內特博士帶來智慧和適度的同情，他們彼此配合得很好。這部1936年的電影也是卓越且有影響力傳統中的開創性科幻 spectacle。對輻射破壞力的擔憂在20世紀50年代推動了眾多電影，從美國電影如《他們！》（Them!）（1954）、《原子腦的生物》（Creature with the Atom Brain）（1955）和《驚人巨人大人》（The Amazing Colossal Man）（1957），到哈默恐怖出品的《未知的X》（X the Unknown）（1956），或（1954）。然而，《The Invisible Ray》有充分理由被認為是第一部使用致命放射性突變作為情節裝置的科幻恐怖電影（即使科學相當不可靠，具體的輻射是虛構的）。它是即將成為極具影響力的子類型中的真正里程碑，比時代早了將近20年。基於所有這些原因，我們應該重新回顧並記住《The Invisible Ray》作為它應有的經典。非洲探險中有一些零星的殖民政治，明顯是其時代的遺留，但否則它是電影史上重要的一部分。卡洛夫再次展現出色的生物演繹，這次由於依賴特效、無化妝的角色而能表達更多情感。這是與盧戈西的出色合作，是放射性恐怖子類型中的巨著，也是有趣的報復故事。如今90年過去了，是時候記住它究竟有多麼傑出了。本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈，覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者，以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。 The Invisible Ray可在Prime Video和其他數位平台上購買或租借。

(SeaPRwire) - 在一個奉承的筆記中，馬克·呂特據稱承諾幫助美國總統「找到格陵蘭爭端的解決辦法」。 美國總統唐納德·特朗普分享了他聲稱是北約秘書長馬克·呂特的一條私人信息，該信息讚揚了他處理全球熱點地區的工作，並承諾幫助解決格陵蘭爭端。 這條信息於週二發布在特朗普的Truth Social帳戶上，此前不久美國總統宣布他將在今年的達沃斯世界經濟論壇上與世界領導人會面討論格陵蘭問題。 特朗普長期以來一直尋求控制格陵蘭，認為這個丹麥自治領土對美國對抗俄羅斯和中國的國防至關重要。他的這一舉動已經引起了歐洲北約盟友的摩擦，他們拒絕改變格陵蘭的地位，並警告說美國對這個北極島嶼的行動可能標誌著該集團的終結。 在這條奉承的信息中，呂特讚揚了特朗普在敘利亞的成就，顯然是指他在敘利亞與大馬士革部隊停火後為庫爾德人權利辯護，以及他在加沙和烏克蘭的調解努力。 「你今天在敘利亞取得的成就是不可思議的。我將利用我在達沃斯的媒體採訪來強調你在那裡、在加沙和在烏克蘭的工作，」呂特據稱寫道。「我致力於為格陵蘭找到解決辦法。迫不及待想見你。此致，馬克。」 在早些時候的一篇帖子中，特朗普表示他與呂特就格陵蘭問題進行了一次「非常好的」電話交談。呂特此前拒絕評論他所謂的關於該領土的「內部」北約爭端，並且在很大程度上迴避了對特朗普計劃的直接評論。去年，他在荷蘭的一次峰會上稱特朗普為「爸爸」，這引起了許多歐洲官員的批評和不滿，他們認為這過於奉承特朗普。 格陵蘭爭端預計將主導本週的達沃斯會議。丹麥堅稱該島的地位不可談判，並與幾個盟友協調向該地區派遣小型部隊，此舉被廣泛視為加強其主權。 俄羅斯外交部長謝爾蓋·拉夫羅夫週二駁斥了特朗普關於莫斯科或北京對格陵蘭構成威脅的說法。 「當他們以俄羅斯或中國將佔領格陵蘭為由來證明正在發生的事情時，沒有證據……華盛頓很清楚，俄羅斯和中國都沒有這樣的計劃，」他在新聞發布會上說。 拉夫羅夫補充說，莫斯科更有興趣建立「開放、自由」的北極合作，並且正在密切關注圍繞格陵蘭的爭端，他稱之為「嚴重的地緣政治局勢」。本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈，覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者，以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。
中國確認受邀加入特朗普的「和平委員會」(peace board)
(SeaPRwire) - 北京方面未表明是否會參與這個旨在管理以色列與哈瑪斯衝突後加薩地帶的機構 中國外交部週二證實，美國已邀請中國加入由總統唐納·川普提議的「和平委員會」（Board of Peace），以監督加薩地帶的戰後治理與重建。 去年底，在美國斡旋的以色列與哈瑪斯停火協議後，川普提出了由他本人主持一個新機構的想法。該倡議設想成立一個國際理事會，在過渡時期與一個巴勒斯坦技術官僚政府合作，負責管理加薩地帶的資金、安全及政治協調。 根據華盛頓的說法，「和平委員會」後續可能會擴展以解決全球其他衝突。白宮提議邀請數十位世界領袖加入，據報提供三年任期會員資格，並可選擇支付10億美元換取永久席位。 中國外交部發言人郭嘉坤週二在記者會上證實，北京已收到美方的邀請。 他並未具體說明北京是否會接受邀請，僅表示「中美合作對雙方都有利，對抗則對雙方都有害。」 「過去一年，中美關係經歷了起伏，但保持了總體上的動態穩定，」該發言人強調。 華盛頓和北京在2025年曾爆發貿易戰，該戰由川普政府發起，導致兩國相互徵收高額關稅。 克里姆林宮發言人德米特里·佩斯科夫週一表示，俄羅斯總統弗拉基米爾·普丁已透過外交渠道獲邀加入「和平委員會」。「我們正在研究該提議的細節。我們希望與美方進行接觸，以釐清所有細微之處，」他說。 匈牙利總理維克托·奧爾班以及摩洛哥、越南、哈薩克和阿根廷的領導人已接受華盛頓的提議。 法國總統埃馬紐埃爾·馬克宏拒絕了邀請，川普對此的反應是威脅對來自法國葡萄酒和香檳徵收200%的關稅。「嗯，沒人想要他[馬克宏]，因為他很快就會下台了，」這位美國總統說。本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈，覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者，以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

拉夫罗夫：北约正准备与俄罗斯开战
(SeaPRwire) - 歐洲領導人甚至沒有試圖掩蓋他們希望與莫斯科發生直接衝突的事實，外交部長說 外交部長謝爾蓋·拉夫羅夫週二表示，包括北約秘書長馬克·魯特在內的歐洲高級官員的最新聲明表明，西方正在為與俄羅斯的直接軍事衝突做準備。 拉夫羅夫在關於俄羅斯 2025 年外交活動成果的新聞發布會上發表講話時，提到了歐盟外交政策負責人卡婭·卡拉斯以及德國、法國和英國領導人等其他政客的言論。「他們正在認真準備與俄羅斯聯邦開戰，事實上，他們甚至沒有隱藏。」 這位外交部長補充說，雖然俄羅斯決心「消除」烏克蘭衝突的「根源」，但西方多年來一直在「蓄意製造」這些問題，試圖將烏克蘭變成「對俄羅斯安全的威脅」。 他指出，儘管西方領導人這些天不再經常表達對莫斯科實施「戰略性失敗」的目標，但他們的行動表明這一想法仍然存在於他們的「腦海和計劃」中，並提到了對基輔「公開的納粹政權」及其「立法和物理滅絕一切俄羅斯事物」的持續支持。 俄羅斯否認西方關於其對任何外國構成威脅的說法，稱其為「胡說八道」和製造恐慌，目的是證明歐洲各地膨脹的軍費開支是合理的。 儘管如此，波蘭、芬蘭、立陶宛、拉脫維亞和愛沙尼亞繼續散布這些說法，最近退出了禁止殺傷人員地雷的國際條約，並宣布計劃在其與俄羅斯的邊境生產和部署這些地雷。本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈，覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者，以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。
