Mettez deux tours Eiffel l'une sur l'autre et vous arrivez à peu près à la hauteur de ce nouveau pont suspendu entre deux montagnes. La Chine vient de battre son propre record du monde de ponts. Construit en suspension, ce géant d'acier vert fluorescent permet de joindre les deux rives du grand canyon de la province du Guizhou dans le sud du pays. Un bijou de modernité qui fait de cette autoroute du ciel, un avantage politique. De deux heures de trajet, on passe à deux minutes. Le pont de la province de la province de Guizhou, construit en un temps record de trois ans, est bien en avance sur les prévisions. Une performance qui a son prix. On sait que les conditions de travail des ouvriers en Chine ne sont pas aussi saines et sécurisées que dans d'autres parties du monde. Malgré les critiques, tous les experts reconnaissent l'excellence chinoise. En trente ans, le pays est devenu le champion planétaire de routes suspendues. De 3 000 ponts au début des années 80, la Chine en compte aujourd'hui près de 32 000, dont certains sont en cours de construction. 260 millions d'euros Sur les dix plus hauts ponts du monde, huit se trouvent en Chine. Des records planétaires à haute valeur ajoutée. C'est l'avis de Mary-Françoise Renard, responsable de l'Idrec, l'Institut français de recherche sur l'économie de la Chine, qui y voit une forme de fierté et un message envoyé au monde entier : « Je vois deux motifs de fierté. L'une nationale et l'autre mondiale. Pour moi, les Chinois sont fiers d'avoir dépassé au niveau technologique d'infrastructures (ponts, routes, rails...) les États-Unis. D'autre part, les habitants y voient aussi un avantage de vie considérable au quotidien. Dans leur immense pays, les habitants se déplacent beaucoup lors des fêtes et des vacances. Quand les familles habitent les villages reculés de montagne, comme c'est le cas pour ce pont du Huajiang dans la province du Guizhou, ces nouvelles autoroutes leur font gagner du temps et de la sécurité sur les trajets. » Trois kilomètres d'autoroute entre les deux rives, avec ce pont d'acier et de béton. Une construction rapide grâce aux nouvelles technologies : satellites, caméras, drones, nouvelles imageries informatiques... Ce nouveau pont chinois a des pylônes, et son armature est connectée à distance sur ordinateur. Une maîtrise de la matière première et des technologies Ingénieure française, spécialiste des matériaux industriels, Sandrine Mansoutre a fondé la société Ecotoolbox. Suspendre une autoroute de quatre voies entre deux montagnes et une prouesse technique. Il faut pouvoir poser et faire tenir l'ouvrage, ce n'est pas facile. « L'avancée chinoise se situe dans la maîtrise de la construction ; de la matière première, telle que le béton ou l'acier, jusqu'aux outils technologiques comme les satellites, drones, logiciels d'ordinateurs. La Chine est capable d'extraire les minerais et terres rares et de construire vite. Et ceci, car elle a tout sur place : les ingénieurs et les milliers d'ouvriers. Pékin agrège tous les maillons de la chaîne de fabrication de ses ponts. Cependant, je pense que l'essentiel est de construire avec les derniers matériaux moins polluants et de faire plus avec moins, en total respect de la nature et des hommes », explique Sandrine Mansoutre. Un pont simulé sur ordinateur grâce à la technique du « jumeau numérique » Très coûteuse, mais très efficace, la technique du jumeau numérique est aujourd'hui reconnue dans le domaine du transport et des infrastructures. Les constructeurs indiquent à l'imagerie de leur logiciel informatique tous les aléas de la région de construction : météo, température, taux de sel, d'humidité, obstacles... Il en sort une image du futur pont, qui bouge à l'écran en temps réel, en fonction de tous ces critères. Cela évite d'avoir à détruire ou déplacer des ponts, car cela arrive souvent, bâtis au mauvais endroit ou abîmés, en raison d'imprévus. Une destination de vacances La Chine optimise les transports en faisant des ponts une curiosité touristique. Ce pont suspendu en est la preuve. Des boutiques, des hôtels sont prévus dans la région. Mais déjà, à son sommet, un ascenseur panoramique et un café restaurant pour des collations avec vue plongeante sur le fleuve.

In der 10. Rauhnacht wird dir der Kolibri im Tempel der Freundschaft den Nektar und die Süße bringen. Er wird dir Mut sowie die Ausdauer bringen, dass du in deinen Freundschaften echte Gemeinschaft lebst, und er hilft dir, dich zu den richtigen Blüten zu bringen.

As a key gateway for fostering connectivity, Hong Kong is set to accelerate the integrated development of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area and the nation's high-quality growth.香港作为加强互联互通的核心门户,正计划加快粤港澳大湾区一体化建设,推动国家高质量发展。The city will achieve this by continuously channeling global capital, promoting innovation and building cultural bridges, senior officials, industry leaders and experts told the Greater Bay Area Conference 2025, which was held on Thursday in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region.在香港特别行政区于周四举办的“2025粤港澳大湾区大会”上,政府高官、行业领袖及专家表示,香港将通过持续引入全球资本、推动创新发展、搭建文化交流桥梁等举措实现上述目标。Qu Yingpu, publisher and editor-in-chief of China Daily, lifted the curtain on the high-profile conference with a prerecorded welcome speech, which was followed by keynote speeches delivered by Leung Chun-ying, vice-chairman of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, and Hong Kong Chief Executive John Lee Ka-chiu.中国日报社社长兼总编辑曲莹璞通过预录欢迎辞为这场备受关注的大会拉开帷幕。随后,全国政协副主席梁振英、香港特别行政区行政长官李家超分别发表主旨演讲。Leung emphasized the central government's vision for the Hong Kong and Macao special administrative regions to actively integrate into the nation's development.梁振英强调,中央政府始终支持香港、澳门两个特别行政区积极融入国家发展大局。He said that upholding the principle of "one country, two systems" and promoting integrated development across the Greater Bay Area would "unleash huge energy similar to nuclear fusion", driving development on both sides.他表示,坚持“一国两制”方针,推动粤港澳大湾区融合发展,将“释放出堪比核聚变的巨大能量”,为大湾区内外发展注入动力。Leung also highlighted the freer flow of people, goods, capital and data as key pathways and objectives of the region's integrated development. Noting the concrete progress in infrastructure and visa relaxation, he said the collaboration between the Hong Kong SAR and Guangdong province has become broader and deeper.梁振英还指出,人员、货物、资金、数据的更自由流动,是大湾区一体化发展的核心路径与目标。他提到,当前大湾区基础设施建设与签证便利化政策已取得切实进展,香港特区与广东省的合作领域正不断拓宽、合作深度持续加深。"Faster and easier cross-boundary journeys have brought about the flow of talent to cities where they are most needed, and where they are most productive," Leung added.“更快捷、更便捷的跨境出行,让人才能够流向最需要、也最能发挥其价值的城市,”梁振英补充道。The senior official expressed his firm belief in the huge untapped potential of Hong Kong's role as a "super-connector", not only within the Greater Bay Area but also in linking the region with the rest of the world.这位高官坚信,香港作为“超级联系人”的潜力尚未完全释放——这一角色不仅体现在大湾区内部,更在于将大湾区与全球其他地区紧密联结。"For all sectors, there are opportunities, and for all opportunities, there are windows. Opportunities come and go, and the windows open and shut," Leung said, calling for "better understanding" and more on-the-ground actions.“各行业皆有机遇,所有机遇皆有窗口期。机遇转瞬即逝,窗口期亦会开合,”梁振英说道,他呼吁各方“增进理解”并采取更多务实行动。The conference, themed "Financial Connectivity, Nurturing Talent, Building Cultural Bridges", was co-organized by China Daily and the Hong Kong Coalition. It brought together more than 300 guests, including executives from Fortune Global 500 and China 500 companies, representatives of think tanks, academia and media, and experts from public and private sectors across Asia.本次大会以“金融互联・人才培育・文化筑桥”为主题,由中国日报与香港友好协进会联合主办。来自亚洲各地的300余名嘉宾参会,包括《财富》世界500强与中国500强企业高管、智库代表、学术界人士、媒体从业者,以及公共部门与私营领域的专家。Qu, the publisher and editor-in-chief of China Daily, highlighted Hong Kong's advantage in "value adding" as the "super-connector", noting that the city's newly established GoGlobal Task Force "will make Hong Kong the primary channel for attracting international capital and technology".中国日报社社长兼总编辑曲莹璞强调,香港作为“超级联系人”,具备独特的“增值”优势。他指出,香港新建立的出海服务平台“将推动香港成为吸引国际资本与技术的主要渠道”。He said he believes the Greater Bay Area is set to "contribute to the national goal of scientific and technological self-reliance", while the upcoming 15th National Games, which will be co-hosted by Hong Kong, Macao and Guangdong, make it "a magnet for domestic and international talent, as well as tourists — a connector of cultures and civilizations".他认为,粤港澳大湾区必将“为国家实现科技自立自强的目标贡献力量”;而即将由香港、澳门与广东联合举办的第十五届全国运动会,将使大湾区“成为吸引国内外人才与游客的‘磁石',成为连接不同文化与文明的纽带”。"The Greater Bay Area has the glorious mission of becoming a principal support of the new development paradigm and a pioneer of Chinese modernization. By pursuing high-quality development and better integrating itself into China's overall development, the Greater Bay Area can well fulfill this mission and make an important contribution to national rejuvenation," Qu added.“粤港澳大湾区肩负着成为新发展格局重要支撑、中国式现代化先行典范的光荣使命。通过推动高质量发展、更好融入国家发展大局,大湾区完全能够履行这一使命,为民族复兴作出重要贡献,”曲莹璞补充道。In a video speech, Hong Kong Chief Executive Lee underscored the city's unique position as the only city having both Chinese and global advantages.香港特别行政区行政长官李家超在视频致辞中强调,香港是唯一兼具“中国优势”与“全球优势”的城市,地位独特。Leveraging its common law system, competitive taxation and a bilingual talent pool, Hong Kong serves as a "premier gateway for cooperation, bridging people, trades, businesses, cultures and values across the region".依托普通法制度、具有竞争力的税收政策及双语人才库,香港成为“区域合作的首要门户,为区内人员、贸易、企业、文化及价值观的互联互通搭建桥梁”。The GoGlobal Task Force will support Chinese mainland enterprises in their global expansion to "create important value for both our country and Hong Kong", Lee said, emphasizing the importance of accelerating the city's development as an international innovation and technology center.李家超表示,“出海”服务平台将支持中国内地企业拓展全球市场,“为国家与香港创造重要价值”。他同时强调,加快推动香港建设国际创新科技中心具有重要意义。With strengthened talent cultivation and cultural exchanges, particularly through the upcoming 15th National Games, Hong Kong will continue to link the Greater Bay Area to global markets, Lee added.李家超补充道,通过加强人才培养与文化交流(尤其是借助即将举办的第十五届全国运动会),香港将继续发挥纽带作用,推动粤港澳大湾区与全球市场对接。The conference featured two panel discussions on innovative finance and talent development, and a dialogue on the National Games' impact on local sports and culture.大会设置两场专题小组讨论,分别聚焦“创新金融与人才发展”;此外还举办了一场主题对话,探讨全运会对香港本地体育与文化发展的影响。Panelists highlighted Hong Kong's GoGlobal Task Force initiative, which supports mainland firms' overseas expansion and facilitates capital flows.参会嘉宾重点关注香港“出海”服务平台 的相关举措——该平台不仅支持内地企业海外拓展,还为资金流动提供便利。Their discussions also focused on enhancing university-industry collaboration to drive technological advancement and leveraging the games to boost regional integration through sports and cultural exchanges.嘉宾们在讨论中还提出,应加强校企合作以推动技术进步,并借助全运会契机,通过体育与文化交流促进区域融合。Furthermore, they discussed strategies to improve cross-regional coordination and advance the Greater Bay Area as a benchmark for China's high-quality development.此外,嘉宾们还就“如何完善跨区域协调机制”“推动粤港澳大湾区成为中国高质量发展标杆”等议题探讨了具体策略。untapped/ˌʌnˈtæpt/adj.未开发的;未利用的integrated/ˈɪntɪɡreɪtɪd/adj.一体化的;综合的facilitate/fəˈsɪlɪteɪt/v.促进;使便利

On today's show Andrew and Bill begin with a mounting scandal in the UK after prosecutors dropped charges against two men accused of spying for China. Topics include: Fingers pointed and claims that PM Keir Starmer and his Labour appointees were unwilling to present evidence of China as an "enemy,” ongoing reluctance to target PRC foreign agents under a new UK enforcement scheme, and reports of Beijing's latest play to move forward with its "mega embassy." From there: The EU Commission proposes tariff hikes to shield its steel industry from PRC overcapacity, why talk of a trillion dollar resolution to the US-China trade war is probably overblown, and a soybean bailout prompts questions about U.S. agriculture priorities generally. At the end: Reports of a "China-linked plot" to throttle communications in New York City, and the NBA's reunion with Chinese basketball fans continues in Macao and San Antonio.

Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News. Tai-Ex opening The Tai-Ex opened up 64-points this morning from yesterday's close, at 24,244 on turnover of $4.1-billion N-T. Expert: High Temps as Tropical Storm Heads to Japan Forecasters say Taiwan can expect high temperatures today as a tropical storm heads towards Japan. Meteorologist Wu De-rong says weather in Taiwan will be sunny both today and tomorrow, with highs in the north reaching 37 to 38 degrees Celsius. The Central Weather Administration has issued a head alert for Taipei and New Taipei in the north, as well as Chiayi County, Tainan City, and Taitung County. And afternoon showers and thunderstorms are expected in mountainous areas. Wu says those traveling to or from Japan should be on the lookout for (密切注意著) Tropical Storm Peipah, which is expected to hit Japan's Shikoku and southern Honshu islands today. From this weekend heading into next week, Wu says moisture from the south will increase, leading to a chance of thunderstorms and heavy rain in the afternoons. And also for travelers, he adds that a tropical disturbance in the South China Sea could affect Hong Kong and Macao on Monday next week. (NS) US Health Secretary RFK Jr hammered by lawmakers US Health Secretary Robert F Kennedy Jr has defended his leadership and vaccine policies during a grilling (審問,指責) by lawmakers on Capitol Hill. It follows the departure of several top officials from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Nick Harper reports from Washington. Congo Suspected New Ebola Outbreak Kills Over a Dozen Congo's health minister says a new Ebola outbreak is suspected of causing 15 deaths among 28 people with symptoms. It's the 16th outbreak of Ebola in the central African country, and the minister says the fatality rate, estimated at nearly 54-percent, showed the gravity (嚴重性) of the situation. The suspected cases included four health care workers. They all had typical Ebola symptoms such as fever, vomiting, diarrhea and heavy bleeding. The World Health Organization said it dispatched its experts to Kasai province to strengthen disease surveillance, treatment and infection prevention and control in health facilities. It is also delivering supplies including personal protective equipment, mobile laboratory equipment and medical supplies. And the W-H-O says Congo has a stockpile of treatments and of the Ervebo Ebola vaccine. Peru Commission to Vote on Reserve for Uncontacted Tribes A commission in Peru was scheduled to vote Thursday on whether to create a long-delayed reserve in a remote stretch of the Amazon that would protect five uncontacted tribes from outside encroachment. It would be in the Loreto region near the Brazil border, and is roughly the size of Jamaica. The reserve would safeguard uncontacted tribes vulnerable to disease and exploitation, but faces opposition from logging interests and political resistance. The vote follows decades of delays and comes as Congress debates changes to the Indigenous Peoples in Isolation law that could weaken protections by allowing periodic (定期的) re-evaluation and possible reduction of reserves.

In this episode of our Gloria Grahame Acteurist Oeuvre-view episode, our protagonist is rudely shoved into the background of the movies, barely appearing in Josef von Sternberg's Macao (1950) (she would have liked to have appeared in it even less) and playing a rote schemer in David Miller's Sudden Fear (1952). The movies themselves don't make up for her under-use, despite the amiable pairing of Robert Mitchum and Jane Russell in the former and the great Joan Crawford sobbing her way to an Oscar nomination in the latter. We do our best to articulate what went wrong for us, before turning our attention to James Gunn's Superman (2025) in our Fear and Moviegoing in Toronto segment. Gunn's approach triggers Dave's superhero comics nostalgia, but Elise is skeptical. Time Codes: 0h 00m 25s: MACAO (1952) [dir. Josef von Sternberg] 0h 22m 52s: SUDDEN FEAR (1953) [dir.

Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News. Tai-Ex opening The Tai-Ex opened down 224-points this morning from yesterday's close, at 23,318 on turnover of $6.3-billion N-T. The market bucked a regional downward trend on Thursday and moved higher, as investors shrugged off a decline on Wall Street overnight caused by concerns that U-S Federal Reserve may not deliver interest rates cuts by September. Turnover also bounced back (恢復) from the decline seen during the previous session - as investor concerns over U-S tariff polices on Taiwan appeared to weaken. MOC launches new cultural program in tandem with Expo 2025 Osaka The Ministry of Culture says cultural program organized for Expo 2025 Osaka will premiere this weekend with a special exhibition featuring 50 selected picture books about various aspects of life in Taiwan. According to the ministry, the "We TAIWAN" cultural program is designed to partner with and make the most of the 2025 World Expo. The ministry says teams that left for Osaka last week have been setting up exhibitions (展覽) and rehearsing for the program - and the main "We TAIWAN" visual display has been set-up at the Grand Green Osaka venue. The first event of the program will be an exhibition of 50 picture books by Taiwanese writers and illustrators. The show will also feature elements from Taiwan's Indigenous Peoples, local folklore, daily life, as well as Taiwan's food culture, religions, arts and natural scenery (自然風光). The "We TAIWAN" program features 38 groups of artists from Taiwan and Japan who will put on a total of 129 performances from August 2 through 20.

Kate fisher reports from Washington Macao ExDemocracy Lawmaker Arrested Under Security Law Macao police say they have arrested a man on suspicion of colluding with forces outside the Chinese casino hub to endanger national security. It was the first publicly known arrest under the city's national security law. Local media outlets report former pro-democracy lawmaker Au Kam San is the suspect. Police said Thursday the 68-year-old Macao resident with the surname Au allegedly colluded (串通;勾結;) with an anti-China group outside of the city and provided false and seditious materials for public display online or abroad. He also is accused of maintaining long-term contact with multiple anti-China entities outside of Macao and repeatedly providing unfounded information to them or their media outlets for dissemination. Peru PreIncan Tombs Discovered Utility workers in Peru's capital have discovered two pre-Incan tombs while expanding underground gas networks. One tomb was empty, but the other contained remains about 1,000 years old, along with clay and pumpkin shell vessels (容器, 器皿). Archaeologists say the vessels' (容器, 器皿) design links them to the pre-Incan Chancay culture. Lima, a city with over 400 archaeological sites, often reveals such finds during construction projects. The company responsible for the gas network has made over 2,200 discoveries in two decades. That was the I.C.R.T.

In 1610, Spanish pilot Juan Bernardo de Fuentidueñas survived a wreck near Macao — but what he discovered next would shake centuries of historical assumptions.On a remote reef, he encountered three indigenous survivors. His chronicle described them not as Japanese, Ryukyuan, or Chinese... but as Lequian Indians.For over 400 years, historians have believed Lequios = Ryukyu. But what if we've been wrong?Drawing from firsthand accounts preserved in The Philippine Islands, 1493–1898 (Blair & Robertson, Vol. XVI), this documentary uncovers stunning new evidence that Lequios was not in Japan — but right here in Northern Luzon, Philippines.
China's two special administrative regions have issued top-level warnings as Typhoon Wipha hits China's southern coast.
Macau–onetime Portuguese colony, now casino hotspot–has long captured the imaginations of travelers, reporters, artists and writers. The city served as the only gateway to China for centuries; then, after the rise of Hong Kong, its slightly seedier vibe made it a popular setting for books, articles and movies exploring the more criminal elements of society. Paul French joins us, once again, to talk about his new book Destination Macao (Blacksmith Books: 2024) the latest book in his Destination series. We chat about colonies and casinos, but also some of the lesser-known parts of Macau's history, like an aborted British attempt to invade Macau in 1808; furious media rumors in 1935 about Japan's interest in buying the colony, and the city's brief time as an aviation hub for the Pan Am Clipper. Paul French was born in London and lived and worked in Shanghai for many years. His book Midnight in Peking was a New York Times Bestseller and a BBC Radio 4 Book of the Week. He received the Mystery Writers' of America Edgar award for Best Fact Crime and a Crime Writers' Association (UK) Dagger award for non-fiction.

Afleet of the Chinese People's Liberation Army Navy led by the aircraft carrier Shandong made its first visit to Hong Kong, a move widely seen as not only a demonstration of military strength but also a step toward deepening ties between Hong Kong and the mainland.由山东号航空母舰率领的中国人民解放军海军舰队首次访问香港,此举被广泛视为不仅展示了军事实力,也是深化香港与内地关系的一步。The naval fleet, comprising the aircraft carrier Shandong, the Yan'an missile destroyer, the Zhanjiang missile destroyer, and the Yuncheng missile frigate, arrived in Hong Kong on Thursday to begin a five-day visit.由山东号航空母舰、延安导弹驱逐舰、湛江导弹驱逐舰和运城导弹护卫舰组成的海军舰队于周四抵达香港,开始为期五天的访问。On the day the naval fleet arrived, hundreds — if not thousands — of Hong Kong residents gathered along the shore to watch. Local media rushed to cover the story.海军舰队抵达当天,数百名(如果不是数千名的话)香港居民聚集在岸边观看。当地媒体争相报道此事。Chief executive of China's Hong Kong Special Administrative Region John Lee said that both the steadfast presence of the PLA garrison in Hong Kong and the cordial visit by the modernized naval fleet have made the "Pearl of the Orient" shine brighter, reflecting the country's ability and determination in safeguarding peace, while allowing Hong Kong, under "one country, two systems," to continue to play its part in the nation's development.中国香港特别行政区行政长官John Lee说,解放军驻港部队的坚守和现代化海军舰队的亲切访问,使“东方之珠”更加璀璨,体现了国家维护和平的能力和决心,也使香港在“一国两制”下继续为国家发展发挥作用。Chief Secretary for Administration of the HKSAR government Chan Kwok-ki attended the deckreception on the Shandong aircraft carrier. He believed the visit by the naval fleet allowed the wider public in Hong Kong to witness the strength of the country's military and would help enhance students' sense of national identity and pride.香港特区政府政务司司长陈国基出席山东航空母舰甲板招待会。他相信,海军舰队的访问让香港的广大公众见证了国家军队的实力,并将有助于增强学生的民族认同感和自豪感。Deputy Chief Secretary for Administration of the HKSAR government Cheuk Wing-hing shared on social media that he toured the ski-jump flight deck, arresting cables, carrier-based fighter jets, and helicopters aboard the Shandong.香港特区政府政务司副司长卓永兴在社交媒体上分享,他参观了山东号上的跳台滑雪飞行甲板、拦阻索、舰载战斗机和直升机。"The rapid progress of our country's national defense is truly remarkable," Cheuk said. "I am deeply moved and feel proud of our nation."卓说:“我国国防建设的快速发展确实令人瞩目。”。“我深受感动,为我们的国家感到自豪。”The Shandong aircraft carrier was open to the public for visits. Starry Lee, a member of the National People's Congress Standing Committee, said that this allowed people to experience firsthand the remarkable achievements of the country's naval modernization, and held significant meaning in fostering a stronger sense ofpatriotism in Hong Kong society.山东航空母舰对公众开放参观。全国人大常委会委员李表示,这让人们亲身体验到中国海军现代化建设取得的显著成就,对增强香港社会的爱国主义意识具有重要意义。Friday was the first open day of the fleet's visit to Hong Kong, with a focus on student visitors. More than 10,000 visits were made aboard the Shandong, Zhanjiang, and Yuncheng ships.星期五是船队访问香港的第一个开放日,重点是学生游客。山东、湛江和运城的船只共接待了10000多名游客。"My ancestral home is Shandong. When I first stepped onto the deck, I couldn't help but cry. Our country has truly become strong!" a lecturer at Hong Kong Metropolitan University surnamed Wong said.香港都会大学一位姓王的讲师说:“我的祖籍是山东。当我第一次踏上甲板时,我忍不住哭了。我们的国家真的变得强大了!”。Some secondary school students from Macao were organized by their schools to travel to Hong Kong for the visit. They happily toured the ships while taking photos with their smartphones to share with classmates who missed the visit. They said that boarding the warships was more than just a visit; it allowed them to witness the long history of China and the country's remarkable progress.部分来自澳门的中学生由学校组织前往香港参观。他们愉快地参观了船只,同时用智能手机拍照,与错过参观的同学分享。他们说,登上军舰不仅仅是一次访问;它让他们见证了中国悠久的历史和国家的显著进步。Seeing the modern carrier-based fighter jets and the spirited,high-morale crew aboard the vessels left a deep impression on Paul Chan, financial secretary of the HKSAR government.看到现代化的舰载战斗机和船上士气高昂的船员,给香港特别行政区政府财政司司长陈茂波留下了深刻的印象。Chan said that the visit by the naval fleet fully reflected the country's deep affection for Hong Kong. "A strong nation must have a strong military, and our country's navy will only grow stronger," he remarked.陈说,海军舰队的访问充分体现了国家对香港的深厚感情。他说:“一个强大的国家必须拥有强大的军队,我们国家的海军只会越来越强大。”。"Stepping aboard the domestically built aircraft carrier Shandong and standing on the deck of this steel giant filled me with excitement," Jeffrey Lam, a member of the Executive Council of the HKSAR, said.香港特别行政区行政会议成员林健锋表示:“登上国产航母山东号,站在这艘钢铁巨头的甲板上,我感到非常兴奋。”。Just as the Shandong sailed forward with strength and determination, Hong Kong, with the support of the country, will surely overcome all challenges and continue to enjoy prosperity and stability, Lam added.林补充说,正如山东以坚强和决心向前航行一样,香港在国家的支持下,必将战胜一切挑战,继续享有繁荣稳定。naval fleetn.海军舰队/ˈneɪvəl fliːt/aircraft carriern.航空母舰/ˈeəkrɑːft ˈkæriə/

As dragon boats swiftly navigated the narrow waterways of the Diejiao water town in Foshan, Guangdong province, the crowds were thrilled at the jaw-dropping maneuvers and fierce competition.当龙舟在广东佛山叠滘水乡狭窄的水道中飞速穿行时,观众为其令人叹为观止的操控和激烈的角逐兴奋不已。The traditional racing event attracted more than 2 million visitors to the town during the Dragon Boat Festival holiday.端午节假期期间,这项传统赛事吸引了超过200万游客前来参观。The Diejiao dragon boat race is an intangible cultural heritage in Foshan. The narrow and winding rivers there prompt the rowers to perform dramatic stunts and sudden stops during the race, earning it the nickname of the "fast and furious".叠滘龙舟赛是佛山市的非物质文化遗产。由于河道狭窄蜿蜒,赛艇运动员在比赛中需要做出各种惊险刺激的动作和急停,因此被称为“速度与激情”。For example, in the Dongsheng competition section, each team of nearly 40 members must navigate a 25-meter-long boat at a high speed through a 560-meter course consisting of six sharp turns.例如,在东胜赛区,每支近40人的队伍必须驾驶一艘25米长的龙舟,高速穿越560米长的、包含六个急弯的赛道。The roar of paddles was matched by the thunderous shouting and cheering of excited spectators. Among the visitors was a 27-year-old marketing manager from Shenzhen, surnamed Zhu.桨声震耳欲聋,现场观众的欢呼声也如雷鸣般震耳欲聋。来自深圳、27岁的市场经理朱先生也在观赛人群之中。"It was my first time seeing a dragon boat race up close, especially the thrilling bend sprints unique to Diejiao," he said. "The atmosphere was marvelous and unbelievable, and crowds packed the riverbanks and even rooftops."“这是我第一次近距离观看龙舟比赛,尤其是叠滘独有的惊险刺激的弯道冲刺,”他说。“现场气氛精彩绝伦,令人难以置信,河岸甚至屋顶都挤满了人。”"From incense rituals and firecrackers to dragon boat races and lively food stalls, the village was alive with tradition," he said.“从上香仪式、鞭炮声,到龙舟竞渡和热闹的小吃摊,整个村庄都洋溢着传统气息,”他说。During the Dragon Boat Festival holiday, from Saturday to Monday, Foshan received over 2 million visitors, marking a 46.11 percent year-on-year increase, said the local government.当地政府表示,端午节假期(周六至周一),佛山接待游客超过200万人次,同比增长46.11%。Tourism revenue is estimated to have surged to 1.015 billion yuan ($141 million) during the three-day holiday, up 49.26 percent year-on-year, it added on Monday.周一,佛山市政府补充道,预计三天假期旅游收入将飙升至10.15亿元人民币(1.41亿美元),同比增长49.26%。The competition in Foshan will last until June 15, and top teams from across Guangdong and those from other cities such as Hong Kong and Macao will be invited to participate.佛山的比赛将持续到6月15日,届时将邀请来自广东省各地以及香港、澳门等其他城市的顶尖队伍参赛。Dragon Boat Festival is a traditional holiday honoring Qu Yuan, one of ancient China's greatest patriotic poets, and is marked nationwide by thrilling dragon boat races.端午节是纪念中国古代最伟大的爱国诗人屈原的传统节日,全国各地都会举行精彩纷呈的龙舟比赛。Data from travel services provider Qunar showed that, as of Monday, searches containing keywords like "dragon boat" and "zongzi" more than doubled compared with the previous month, and bookings for destinations offering folk culture experiences rose more than 40 percent.旅游服务提供商去哪儿网的数据显示,截至周一,“龙舟”和“粽子”等关键词的搜索量环比增长了一倍多,预订提供民俗文化体验的目的地的数量增长了40%以上。In recent years, more areas have expanded their festivities by blending the races with local culture and tourism, creating richer and more immersive experiences for visitors and boosting the local economy.近年来,越来越多的地区将龙舟比赛与当地文化和旅游相结合,拓展了节日庆祝活动,为游客创造了更丰富、更沉浸式的体验,促进了当地经济发展。In Haikou, Hainan province, about 40 teams, including those from Malaysia, Singapore and the Philippines, competed in international dragon boat racing from Saturday to Sunday, attracting over 219,000 visitors, Haikou Daily reported.据《海口日报》报道,海南省海口市在周六至周日举办国际龙舟邀请赛,约有40支队伍参赛,包括来自马来西亚、新加坡、菲律宾的代表队,共吸引游客超过21.9万人次。In Fujian province, Fangzhuang village, one of China's largest wood dragon boat manufacturing hubs, received over 200 orders for dragon boats this year, setting a record.在福建省,作为中国最大的木制龙舟制造中心之一,方庄村今年接到了超过200艘龙舟的订单,创下了历史新高。Fang Jianwei, a dragon boat craftsman, said they have received orders from Fujian, Guangdong and Jiangxi provinces. There were also overseas orders, including those from the United States and Japan.龙舟工匠方剑伟表示,他们接到了来自福建、广东和江西等地的订单,也包括来自美国和日本的海外订单。Dragon boat traditions go beyond southern China. This year, northern-style racing returned to the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal in Cangzhou, Hebei province, after nearly 200 years.龙舟传统远不仅限于中国南方。今年,北方风格的龙舟赛事时隔近200年,重返河北沧州的京杭大运河。"The race highlights not just speed, but also skill and creativity," said Zhang Ge, deputy general manager of Cangzhou Grand Canal Development Group, adding that the city plans to turn dragon boat shows into a regular tourism product, integrating cultural, social and economic benefits to boost Cangzhou's cultural tourism appeal.“龙舟赛事不仅注重速度,更注重技巧和创意。”沧州大运河发展集团副总经理张阁说道。他还表示,沧州计划将龙舟表演打造成常态化旅游产品,集文化效益、社会效益和经济效益于一体,提升沧州的文化旅游吸引力。intangible cultural heritage非物质文化遗产maneuver/məˈnuːvər/n.精巧动作;策略;演习v.熟练地移动;操纵immersive/ɪˈmɜːrsɪv/adj.身临其境的;沉浸式的patriotic/ˌpeɪtriˈɒtɪk/adj.爱国的

On this special edition of The Point, we are taken back to a pivotal moment in global diplomacy: October 25, 1971, when the United Nations passed Resolution 2758, recognizing the People's Republic of China as the sole lawful representative of China at the UN. Joining us today is a unique eyewitness to history: Charles Liu, founder and chairman of HAO Capital, and founding director of the Center for China and the World at the City University of Macao. Born in Taiwan, he stood at the UN headquarters as the resolution passed. Hear his reflections on that defining day and his response to those now questioning its legacy.
Immigration management departments across the country have inspected and verified 163 million cross-border passenger trips in the first quarter this year, a 15.3 percent year-on-year increase, the National Immigration Administration revealed on Tuesday.国家移民管理局周二透露,今年第一季度,全国移民管理部门共查验出入境人员1.63亿人次,同比增长15.3%。Of these trips, more than 17.4 million were made by foreigners, a 33.4 percent increase compared with the same period last year, the administration's spokesman Lin Yongsheng said at an online news conference.国家移民管理局发言人林勇胜在一次线上新闻发布会上表示,其中外籍人员出入境达1740余万人次,较去年同期增长33.4%。”Residents on the Chinese mainland made 80.27 million passenger trips, and residents in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan made 65.72 million trips, both seeing a more than 10 percent year-on-year increase.与此同时,内地居民出入境总人次为8027万,香港、澳门和台湾居民出入境总人次为6572万,均实现同比增长超过10%。The administration improved the country's visa-free transit policy significantly in December last year by granting a 10-day visa-free stay for citizens from 54 countries who make a transit in China.去年12月,中国政府大幅改进了过境免签政策,允许来自54个国家的公民在中国过境时享受10天的免签停留期。To enjoy the policy, these people can enter China through 60 ports and stay in 24 provinces为了享受这一政策,这些旅客可以通过全国60个口岸入境,并在24个省份停留。"The expanded visa-free transit policy, in coordination with other visa exemption policies, contributed to a significant increase in the number of foreign travelers to China," Lin said."扩大过境免签政策与其他免签政策相配合,促进了外国游客来华人数的大幅增长。By March 31 this year, the number of incoming foreign travelers received by ports across the country had increased by about 40 percent to more than 9.2 million, according to Lin. Of these people, about 71 percent came to China visa-free.截至今年3月31日,全国各口岸接待的入境外国旅客数量增长了40%,达到920多万人次。其中,约71%的旅客是免签入境的。the National Immigration Administration国家移民管理局cross-border passenger跨境旅客visa-free transit policy过境免签政策year-on-year同比;与上年同期数字相比
Ya sabéis que no me gusta hablar de accidentes ni de fallecidos en la competición… entonces… ¿por qué hago este podcast? Por algo evidente: Afortunadamente las personas fallecidas con responsabilidad directa de las carreras ha caído de forma exponencial… aunque hay matices. De vez en cuando me gusta hacer podcast de Motorsport…. Y este me lo habéis pedido de forma reiterada. Me resistí porque, como digo, siempre me gusta halar en positivo de los coches, las motos y las carreras… pero me he dado cuenta de los grandes progresos que se han producido en este campo. Comencemos por las 4 ruedas: Os pongo un ejemplo paradigmático: La F1, no la carrera, pero sí la categoría históricamente más peligrosa del mundo de las 4 ruedas… durante muchos años, cuando acababa la temporada, siempre había algún piloto que estaba en la foto oficial de comienzo de temporada… pero no en la de cierre. Nada menos que 46 pilotos han fallecido en la F1 desde la creación del Campeonato en 1950, una media de uno cada año y medio más o menos… pero es una media falsa. Desde 2014, cuando falleció Jules Bianchi, no ha fallecido en accidente ni un solo piloto de F1. Y si nos adelantamos un poco más, hay que irse a 1994 cuando fallecieron un solo dos días, Roland Ratzenberger y el gran Ayrton Senna. Es decir, desde 1995 hasta hoy, toquemos madera, nada menos que 20 años, solo ha fallecido un piloto. Si haces las cuentas con 45 pero en solo 35 años te sale una media de casi 3 pilotos cada dos años… como ves las cosas han cambiado mucho. Y para que cambien tanto ha habido 3 puntos de inflexión. Vamos a verlo. París-Madrid: La carrera de la muerte. Se llama “Carrera de la muerte” a la celebrada en 1903 entre Paris y Madrid… a media carrera ya habían muerto 7 personas, entre ellos varios espectadores y el propio Marcel Renault, fundador de la marca que lleva su nombre. 24 horas de Le Mans de 1955. El número de víctimas en Le Mans fue apabullante: 83 espectadores y el propio piloto del coche accidentado, Pierre Levegh. Una confusión a la entra de boxes del piloto de Austin Lance Macklin hizo que Pierre Levegh con su Mercedes se estrellase contra él y su coche arrasase las tribunas… GP San Marino de 1994. Tercer hito, en este caso que sirvió para mejorar la seguridad de los pilotos… y es que en solo un Gran Premio fallecieron Roland Ratzenberger el sábado y Ayrton Senna el domingo… Vamos con las carreras, pero una advertencia: En algunos casos diversas fuentes dan datos distintos… he puesto los que me han parecido más fiables o los que aparecen en más repetidos. Si tenéis otros datos, por favor, ponerlos en comentarios. -Subida a Pikes Peak. 4 fallecidos. -GP de Macao. 17 fallecidos. -Carrera Panamericana. 27 fallecidos. -París-Dakar. 47 fallecidos. -Mille Miglia. 56 fallecidos. -500 Millas de Indianápolis. 73 fallecidos. -24 horas de Le Mans. 104 fallecidos. -TT Isla de Man. 270 pilotos fallecidos. Conclusión. No he incluido otras pruebas famosas por su peligrosidad, como la Baja 1000, algunas Road Races del Cto. Británico de motociclismo o la ilegal Cannon Ball. En unos casos porque no me ha parecido interesante u oportuno y en otros, voy a ser sincero, por no encontrar datos fidedignos… Como decía, me he animado a hacer este podcast porque en el fondo es optimista: Nunca ha sido más seguro que ahora correr en coche o en moto… con excepciones… ahí lo dejo. Coche del día. Aunque el primer modelo de Porsche en utilizar la denominación Carrera fue el 356 A de 1955 voy a elegir el 911 Carrera RS de 1972, un coche que me volvía loco en mi adolescencia… y que lo sigue haciendo ahora… yo creo que más. Un coche con motor de 2.7 litros, por supuesto detrás y por supuesto refrigerado por aire, con 210 CV para un peso de 910 kg… un verdadero tiro solo apto para conductores expertos o porschistas acérrimos.

De vez en cuando me gusta hacer podcast de Motorsport…. Y este me lo habéis pedido de forma reiterada. Me resistí porque, como digo, siempre me gusta halar en positivo de los coches, las motos y las carreras… pero me he dado cuenta de los grandes progresos que se han producido en este campo. Comencemos por las 4 ruedas: Os pongo un ejemplo paradigmático: La F1, no la carrera, pero sí la categoría históricamente más peligrosa del mundo de las 4 ruedas… durante muchos años, cuando acababa la temporada, siempre había algún piloto que estaba en la foto oficial de comienzo de temporada… pero no en la de cierre. Nada menos que 46 pilotos han fallecido en la F1 desde la creación del Campeonato en 1950, una media de uno cada año y medio más o menos… pero es una media falsa. Desde 2014, cuando falleció Jules Bianchi, no ha fallecido en accidente ni un solo piloto de F1. Y si nos adelantamos un poco más, hay que irse a 1994 cuando fallecieron un solo dos días, Roland Ratzenberger y el gran Ayrton Senna. Es decir, desde 1995 hasta hoy, toquemos madera, nada menos que 20 años, solo ha fallecido un piloto. Si haces las cuentas con 45 pero en solo 35 años te sale una media de casi 3 pilotos cada dos años… como ves las cosas han cambiado mucho. Y para que cambien tanto ha habido 3 puntos de inflexión. Vamos a verlo. París-Madrid: La carrera de la muerte. Se llama “Carrera de la muerte” a la celebrada en 1903 entre Paris y Madrid… a media carrera ya habían muerto 7 personas, entre ellos varios espectadores y el propio Marcel Renault, fundador de la marca que lleva su nombre. 24 horas de Le Mans de 1955. El número de víctimas en Le Mans fue apabullante: 83 espectadores y el propio piloto del coche accidentado, Pierre Levegh. Una confusión a la entra de boxes del piloto de Austin Lance Macklin hizo que Pierre Levegh con su Mercedes se estrellase contra él y su coche arrasase las tribunas… GP San Marino de 1994. Tercer hito, en este caso que sirvió para mejorar la seguridad de los pilotos… y es que en solo un Gran Premio fallecieron Roland Ratzenberger el sábado y Ayrton Senna el domingo… Vamos con las carreras, pero una advertencia: En algunos casos diversas fuentes dan datos distintos… he puesto los que me han parecido más fiables o los que aparecen en más repetidos. Si tenéis otros datos, por favor, ponerlos en comentarios. -Subida a Pikes Peak. 4 fallecidos. -GP de Macao. 17 fallecidos. -Carrera Panamericana. 27 fallecidos. -París-Dakar. 47 fallecidos. -Mille Miglia. 56 fallecidos. -500 Millas de Indianápolis. 73 fallecidos. -24 horas de Le Mans. 104 fallecidos. -TT Isla de Man. 270 pilotos fallecidos. Conclusión. No he incluido otras pruebas famosas por su peligrosidad, como la Baja 1000, algunas Road Races del Cto. Británico de motociclismo o la ilegal Cannon Ball. En unos casos porque no me ha parecido interesante u oportuno y en otros, voy a ser sincero, por no encontrar datos fidedignos… Como decía, me he animado a hacer este podcast porque en el fondo es optimista: Nunca ha sido más seguro que ahora correr en coche o en moto… con excepciones… ahí lo dejo. Coche del día. Aunque el primer modelo de Porsche en utilizar la denominación Carrera fue el 356 A de 1955 voy a elegir el 911 Carrera RS de 1972, un coche que me volvía loco en mi adolescencia… y que lo sigue haciendo ahora… yo creo que más. Un coche con motor de 2.7 litros, por supuesto detrás y por supuesto refrigerado por aire, con 210 CV para un peso de 910 kg… un verdadero tiro solo apto para conductores expertos o porschistas acérrimos.
En la guerra mundiald de aranceles, Donald Trump incluyó hasta La Reunión, que es una isla francesa en el océano Índico, al este de Madagascar. Solos se salvaron Bielorrusia, Burkina Faso, Cabo Verde, Cuba, Hong Kong, Macao, Corea del Norte, Rusia, Seychelles, Somalia y Gambia. Canadá y México no fueron mencionados porque los aranceles del 25% sobre los productos no cubiertos por el acuerdo de libre comercio seguirán vigentes.
Don't be shy, send me a message!A real change for the podcast: After 5 years of talking about British culture, it's time to move on and talk about 'The Middle Kingdom', China. I lived in China from 2015-2021, and regularly wrote e-mails to my parents detailing my time there. The first half of the podcast is me reading from these and adding in my reflections almost a decade on. I talk about my first arrival in China, the visa process and settling in at work, as well as a day trip to Hong Kong. This is the first 30 minutes. I then read a fourth e-mail detailing my first trip to Macao. I do actually have a series of reflective pieces I wrote for Chinese social media in 2021 as I was leaving. I read these prior to recording, but didn't read them out, as the podcast is long enough as it is. If you enjoy this episode, perhaps I will use them later more fully.In the second half of this podcast, I talk about Chinese cultural topics as requested by my Chinese friends. These include:Different foods and citiesChinese tech citiesThe Monkey KingHou YiThe movie 'Hero' with Jet LiFood culture (more detail)Language Chinese New Year I would usually do a great deal of reading, online and from my own book collection, before talking on such specialised topics. But on this occasion, I draw 100% from my experiences, as I currently remember them. Again, I am drawing on old writing, and another source I used was a leather-bound notebook I filled with entries detailing my day-to-day life in my first few years in China. I created this for my parents, who are well-travelled but had not been to China. The notebook passed back to me after my mother passed away. I was gratified to learn that she had often read it, and it was always close to hand for her. For further reading and viewing, I recommend the Youtube channels, @VideosByCaine and @DaNiuLaoShi both by a friend of mine who also lived in China. His experiences are naturally different from mine, his personal perspective is unique, but there is much in common also. I highly recommend all his content. Between the both of us, you would get a very full and rounded idea of life in China. No two people experience the same (or similar) events in the same way. There is much to gain from seeing both our experiences. I really like this video my friend created, called "China, I miss you": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R28JoQszHqI...and also the video below, which looks at why he first went to China. Don't worry about the Chinese title of the video, he speaks in English throughout! Actually, the thoughts in his video very much relate to the first half of this podcast. We do often compare and contrast our experiences, and our differing reflections, so again, I really recommend checking out both our content. 回忆之旅 — 安庆漫跑记 | 大牛跑步第六集: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y1cuC2_M1IM If you have any further questions, feel free to contact me using any of the methods below!

À partir d'une vaste enquête et de rencontres avec des personnages hauts en couleur, Antoine Vitkine raconte l'histoire et les ambitions de la mafia chinoise, devenue la plus puissante au monde.Depuis près de deux siècles, les triades tissent leur toile. Elles ont fait tomber le dernier empereur de Chine, régné sur le Shanghai des années 1920 comme sur les salles de jeu de Macao. Sun Yat-sen, fondateur de la République de Chine, en fut même l'un des « parrains ». D'une implacable brutalité, elles possèdent leurs rites, leur hiérarchie stricte et des valeurs claniques.Ces « sociétés noires » ont su s'adapter au monde contemporain et déploient leur emprise sur tous les continents. Elles dominent le trafic de drogues, d'êtres humains et de contrefaçons, sont à la pointe du blanchiment d'argent et de la cybercriminalité, s'immiscent dans l'économie légale. Surtout, elles se sont mises au service des ambitions de Xi Jinping et de sa guerre contre l'Occident : soutien aux routes de la soie, répression des manifestants démocrates à Hong Kong, corruption politique au Canada, invasion du fentanyl aux États-Unis…Depuis quelques années, elles sont également devenues les banques occultes du crime organisé européen. Cette plongée sidérante dans le monde des triades révèle leurs liens avec le pouvoir de Pékin et leur impact sur les rapports de forces mondiaux. Un défi majeur pour nos démocraties.L'auteur, Antoine Vitkine est notre invité par téléphoneDistribué par Audiomeans. Visitez audiomeans.fr/politique-de-confidentialite pour plus d'informations.

Ching Shih, born as Shi Yang, was quite possibly the most powerful pirate of all time. While famous UK pirates like Blackbeard, Black Bart, Calico Jack, Sir Francis Drake, or Captain Kidd get much more name recognition, none of them ever commanded a confederation of pirates up to 80,000 men strong, with around 2,000 ships.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 2: 4:05pm- Harrison Fields—Former White House and Congressional Spokesperson & a Surrogate for the 2024 Trump Campaign—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to recap Donald Trump's campaign rally in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. It was Trump's first trip to the Keystone State since he was nearly assassinated in Butler, PA. Last night, Trump invited Tiffany Hall—a single mother of four who lives in PA—on stage to discuss how her life, and the lives of her children, have been made more difficult by Bidenomics and the resulting inflation. 4:30pm- Congress Tries to Protect Children Online: The Wall Street Journal Editorial Board writes: “The Senate on Tuesday passed the Kids Online Safety Act (KOSA), 91-3, and who opposes keeping children safe in the cyber wilderness? While well-intended and useful in some ways, the bill is full of land mines that the House would be wise to clean up…If parents don't want their children spending more than an hour on TikTok a day or playing video games past 8 p.m., they should have the power to stop them. But politicians always want more control, and they say it's unfair to ask parents to supervise children online. Thus the Senate bill would empower the Federal Trade Commission and 50 state Attorneys General to serve in loco parentis and police the platforms. Companies would have a legal ‘duty of care' to design their platforms to prevent harm to minors. This means the FTC could sue platforms if it says their features, including algorithms, harm minors.” You can read the full editorial here: https://www.wsj.com/articles/senate-kids-online-safety-act-house-social-media-regulation-federal-trade-commission-30cfe079?mod=opinion_lead_pos1 4:40pm- Hong Kong Wins Gold in Fencing, Taunts Italy with Pineapple Pizza: John Yoon of The New York Times reports: “Losing an Olympic fencing title bout to the champion from Hong Kong was difficult enough for the Italian. Then came the pizza slander. Cheung Ka Long's triumph over Filippo Macchi of Italy in the gold medal bout in men's foil on Monday has led to a sour fallout that has spilled off the fencing strip: Pizza Hut's Hong Kong and Macao branch has offered free pineapple toppings on its pies as fans on social media praised the combination widely shunned by the losing side.” You can read the full article here: https://www.nytimes.com/2024/07/30/world/olympics/hong-kong-italy-fencing-pineapple-pizza.html
The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode (08/01/2024): 3:05pm- WSJ Reporter Freed as Part of Russian Prisoner Swap: Drew Hinshaw, Joe Parkinson, and Aruna Viswantha of The Wall Street Journal report: “Russia freed wrongly convicted Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich as part of the largest and most complex East-West prisoner swap since the Cold War, in which he and more than a dozen others jailed by the Kremlin were exchanged for Russians held in the U.S. and Europe, including a convicted murderer. Gershkovich and other Americans left Russian aircraft at roughly 11:20 a.m. ET at an airport in Turkey's capital, Ankara. Gershkovich was then transported to an aircraft lounge on a Turkish bus. Russia had kept the 32-year-old behind bars for more than a year on a false allegation of espionage. It sentenced him in a hurried and secret three-day trial to 16 years in a high-security penal colony.” Rich notes that it's wonderful that Gershkovich has been released but wonders why Pennsylvania school teacher Marc Fogel remains wrongfully imprisoned by Russia? You can read the full article here: https://www.wsj.com/world/russia/evan-gershkovich-free-cde745b3 3:20pm- While speaking to the White House press, National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan was asked about the “imbalance” in the Biden-Harris Administration's prisoner swap agreement with Russia—with Russia receiving hardened criminals while the U.S. received wrongfully convicted citizens and journalists. 3:30pm- Paul Thacker— Investigative Journalist & former Fellow at the Edmond J. Safra Center for Ethics at Harvard University—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss his latest article for his Substack, The Disinformation Chronicle. You can find Thacker's article, “NIH Email Reveals Plan to Fool Congress With Response ‘That Doesn't Actually Answer the Questions,'” here: https://disinformationchronicle.substack.com/p/nih-email-reveals-plan-to-fool-congress 3:50pm- Olympic Female Boxing: Italian female boxer Angela Carini was forced to surrender after one punch from Algerian Imane Khelif during their Olympics bout. Khelif had previously been disqualified from participating in women's boxing competitions after testing revealed Khelif possessed XY chromosomes. While appearing on Fox News, boxer Claressa Shields—a two-time Olympic gold medalist—said that while she respects everyone, she doesn't believe it's fair or safe for men to fight women in the boxing ring. 4:05pm- Harrison Fields—Former White House and Congressional Spokesperson & a Surrogate for the 2024 Trump Campaign—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to recap Donald Trump's campaign rally in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. It was Trump's first trip to the Keystone State since he was nearly assassinated in Butler, PA.

During the rally, Trump emphasized presumptive Democrat presidential nominee Kamala Harris' far-left policy preferences, including: a ban on fracking, abolishing ICE, and ending private health insurance. Trump also spent time discussing Harris' failed attempt to secure the U.S. Southern border. Trump promised the crowd “We're not going to let her do to Pennsylvania what she did to California. She destroyed San Francisco."—even calling out Soros-funded District Attorneys and explicitly mentioning Philadelphia. 5:25pm- Flashback: In 2016, KCAL 9—a CBS News affiliate in Los Angeles, CA—reported that Kamala Harris was accused of treating her Senate “campaign funds like a personal checking account to fund a life of luxury.” When questioned about the accusations, Harris seemingly conceded that money was misappropriated but blamed it on her campaign manager. 5:35pm- Dr. Victoria Coates—Former Deputy National Security Advisor & the Vice President of the Davis Institute for National Security and Foreign Policy at The Heritage Foundation—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss the Biden Administration's prisoner swap agreement with Russia. While it's wonderful that Gershkovich has been released, why does Pennsylvania school teacher Marc Fogel remain wrongfully imprisoned in Russia? Dr. Coates fears that because Russia got the better end of this trade deal, it could encourage Vladimir Putin to imprison more Americans. Plus, why isn't the American media paying closer attention to authoritarian Nicolas Maduro's seizure of power in Venezuela? Coates suspects the media is protecting the Biden-Harris Administration for having eased sanctions on Venezuela in exchange for Maduro's empty promise of free and fair elections—which clearly didn't happen. Her upcoming book is: “Winning the War on Israel: Inside the Battle for the Jewish State and America.” 6:05pm- What's So Great About Josh Shapiro?: Jonathan Chait of New York Magazine writes: “Kamala Harris has the luxury of several promising options for her vice-presidential nominee, but the discussion has focused inordinately on Pennsylvania governor Josh Shapiro. The reason for this, I think, is that Shapiro has some weaknesses that make him distasteful to some potential Harris voters… Democrats have two main sources of concern with Shapiro, one small and one large. The small concern is that he endorsed a school-voucher plan… The more serious criticism centers on his comments on anti-Israel protests since October 7, which he has denounced.” You can read the full article here: https://nymag.com/intelligencer/article/josh-shapiro-vice-president-moderate-popular-governor-pennsylvania-palestine-kamala-harris.html 6:15pm- Women Don't Want Shapiro: Mary Ann Akers—Deputy Washington Bureau Chief for The Daily Beast—reports: “Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro is the betting favorite to be No. 2 on the Democratic ticket, but his involvement in a sexual harassment coverup may tank his chances. The issue has come to a head, with a little known women's rights organization urging Vice President Kamala Harris to think twice. In a headline blaring: ‘Gov. Shapiro's Failures Enabled Sexual Harassment,' the National Women's Defense League said in a statement that the Harris vetting team should ‘consider the handling of past complaints of sexual harassment inside the Pennsylvania Governor's office.' The group claims to be a nonpartisan organization dedicated to preventing sexual harassment.” You can read the full article here:https://www.thedailybeast.com/womens-group-to-harris-dump-shapiro-over-sex-case-cover-up 6:30pm- Infuriating 9/11 Plea Deal: Jess Bravin of The Wall Street Journal writes: “The Defense Department approved a plea bargain with Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and two other Guantanamo detainees accused of orchestrating the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks that destroyed the World Trade Center, killed nearly 3,000 people and launched America's 20-year military campaign in Afghanistan. In a Wednesday letter to victims of the attacks, military prosecutors said the three defendants had agreed to plead guilty in exchange for life sentences. Prosecutors had been seeking the death penalty.” You can read the full article here: https://www.wsj.com/politics/national-security/khalid-sheikh-mohammed-and-two-other-9-11-defendants-agree-to-plea-deal-9b2d1f74?mod=hp_lead_pos8
