In dieser Folge führen Patrick und Steve die Reihe zu den Generalsekretären fort. Diesmal steht Dag Hammarskjöld, der zweite UN-Generalsekretär, im Zentrum. Dieser wurde nach dem Rücktritt von Trygve Lie überraschend in das Amt gewählt und leitete die Weltorganisationen von 1953 bis 1961. Bis heute gilt er als eine der prägendsten Figuren der UN. Warum das so ist, besprechen Patrick und Steve im Laufe der Folge. Dabei gehen sie auch auf Hammarskjölds Werdegang, seine Amtsführung sowie zentrale Herausforderungen, mit denen er sich konfrontiert sah, ein.Zu Beginn der Folge gibt Patrick zusätzlich einen Überblick über den aktuellen Stand zur Generalsekretärswahl, da am 21. und 22. April in New York die Anhörungen der vier aktuellen Kandidatinnen und Kandidaten Michelle Bachelet, Rafael Grossi, Rebeca Grynspan und Macky Sall stattgefunden haben.

VOV1 - Hôm qua tròn bốn mươi năm sau thảm họa hạt nhân hernobyl nhưng những hệ lụy từ sự cố này vẫn chưa khép lại. Trong bối cảnh xung đột và rủi ro an toàn hạt nhân gia tăng, cộng đồng quốc tế một lần nữa phát đi thông điệp mạnh mẽ: thảm họa hạt nhân Chernobyl không chỉ là ký ức, mà là lời cảnh báoBốn thập kỷ đã trôi qua, song hậu quả vẫn còn hiện hữu. Hàng triệu người từng bị phơi nhiễm phóng xạ, hàng trăm nghìn người phải rời bỏ nhà cửa. Nhiều vùng đất rộng lớn đến nay vẫn bị ô nhiễm, và những tranh cãi về số nạn nhân thiệt mạng vì các bệnh liên quan đến phóng xạ vẫn chưa có hồi kết.Không chỉ Ukraine, quốc gia láng giềng Belarus cũng là một trong những khu vực chịu ảnh hưởng nặng nề nhất do hướng gió mang theo bụi phóng xạ sau vụ nổ năm 1986. Hàng chục nghìn người đã phải sơ tán, nhiều ngôi làng bị bỏ hoang, và đến nay vẫn còn những khu vực rộng lớn bị hạn chế sinh sống do ô nhiễm phóng xạ kéo dài.Ngay cả công trình “Mái vòm an toàn mới” – biểu tượng của nỗ lực quốc tế nhằm cô lập lò phản ứng số 4 – cũng đang đối mặt với những rủi ro mới sau các sự cố gần đây. Điều đó cho thấy, Chernobyl không phải là câu chuyện đã khép lại.Trong thông điệp gửi đi nhân dịp này, Tổng Giám đốc Cơ quan Năng lượng Nguyên tử Quốc tế (IAEA), ông Rafael Grossi nhấn mạnh:“Chúng tôi đang kỷ niệm một ngày tưởng niệm đầy u buồn: 40 năm kể từ thảm họa Chernobyl. Đây là thời điểm để tưởng nhớ, suy ngẫm và củng cố cam kết của chúng ta đối với an toàn hạt nhân. Hôm nay, chúng ta tưởng nhớ những người lính cứu hỏa, những người khắc phục hậu quả, các kỹ sư và công nhân đã ứng phó, và hàng trăm nghìn người đã mất nhà cửa, phải rời bỏ cộng đồng của mình. Tôi không coi Chernobyl là lịch sử. Đó là một trách nhiệm sống động.”Không chỉ dừng lại ở lời cảnh báo, người đứng đầu cơ quan giám sát hạt nhân của Liên Hợp Quốc cũng kêu gọi hành động khẩn cấp. Theo ông, việc sửa chữa hệ thống che chắn lò phản ứng tại Chernobyl cần được triển khai “càng sớm càng tốt”, bởi việc để tình trạng hiện tại kéo dài là “có vấn đề” đối với an toàn hạt nhân. Theo ông Grossi, ký ức về thảm họa không chỉ để tưởng niệm, mà còn để thúc đẩy hành động – từ việc thiết lập các tiêu chuẩn an toàn, tăng cường giám sát, đến hợp tác quốc tế trong ứng phó sự cố. Trong bối cảnh chiến sự, trách nhiệm đó càng trở nên cấp thiết, khi bất kỳ rủi ro nào liên quan đến hạt nhân đều có thể vượt qua biên giới và trở thành khủng hoảng toàn cầu.Cùng chung lời cảnh báo, từ Vatican, người đứng đầu Giáo hội Công giáo, Giáo hoàng Leo 14, nhấn mạnh thảm họa Chernobyl đã “để lại dấu ấn trong lương tâm nhân loại”, đồng thời kêu gọi các nhà lãnh đạo đặt trách nhiệm và sự khôn ngoan lên hàng đầu.“Đánh dấu kỷ niệm 40 năm thảm họa Chernobyl bi thảm, một sự kiện đã để lại dấu ấn trong lương tâm nhân loại, đây vẫn là lời cảnh báo về những rủi ro tiềm ẩn trong việc sử dụng các công nghệ ngày càng mạnh mẽ. Tôi hy vọng rằng ở mọi cấp độ ra quyết định, sự khôn ngoan và trách nhiệm sẽ luôn được ưu tiên, để năng lượng nguyên tử luôn được sử dụng nhằm phục vụ sự sống và hòa bình.”Thông điệp này phản ánh một mối quan ngại ngày càng lớn: trong khi công nghệ hạt nhân mang lại nhiều lợi ích, thì những rủi ro tiềm ẩn – đặc biệt trong bối cảnh xung đột, vẫn có thể dẫn đến hậu quả không thể đảo ngược.Từ vùng cấm Chernobyl đến những khu đất hoang ở Belarus, dấu tích của thảm họa vẫn hiện hữu như một lời nhắc nhở dai dẳng. Dù thiên nhiên đang dần hồi sinh ở một số nơi, thì nỗi ám ảnh về phóng xạ và mất mát vẫn chưa thể xóa nhòa.Bốn mươi năm nhìn lại, thông điệp từ Chernobyl ngày càng rõ ràng: an toàn hạt nhân không chỉ là vấn đề kỹ thuật, mà là trách nhiệm chung của toàn nhân loại. Và trong một thế giới còn nhiều bất ổn, lời kêu gọi hướng tới một tương lai không còn nỗi lo hạt nhân đang trở nên cấp thiết hơn bao giờ hết/.Hồng Nhung/ VOV1LHQ kêu gọi sử dụng năng lượng hạt nhân vì mục đích hòa bình nhân dịp tưởng niệm 40 năm thảm họa Chernobyl (26/4/1986 - 26/4/2026).
Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News. Tai-Ex opening The Tai-Ex opened up 926-points this morning from Friday's close, at 39,858 on turnover of 26.4-billion N-T. The market surged more than 3-per cent Friday as Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing closed at a new high after the Financial Supervisory Commission raised the investment ceiling for the stock by active exchange-traded funds. Yilan village chief recalled over mining project in Indigenous territory A village chief in Yilan has been recalled following controversy over his handling of a mining project in an Indigenous traditional territory. The recall vote against Lunpi Village chief Wu Ping-tsung in Datong Township passed with 214 in favor of the recall, 120 against, and four invalid ballots. Accordibg to the Yilan County Election Commission, votes in favor accounted for 35.31-per cent of the village's 606 eligible voters, exceeding both the legal threshold and the number of opposing votes. Initiators of the recall argued that Wu ignored local opposition to the mining project and instead supported the developer under the guise of (假借…的名義,以…為藉口) administrative neutrality. They also says the recall was aimed at protecting future generations from potential environmental harm. Wu said in a Facebook post in March that the project proceeded in accordance with the Indigenous Peoples Basic Law and he denied claims he supported the company that won the bid. Rain expected later next week The Central Weather Administration says temperatures will rise further today, with clear skies are forecast a across much of the island both today and tomorrow. However, new frontal system combined with a cloud system moving eastward from southern China, is expected to pass Taiwan on Wednesday and Thursday. That front is expected to bring cloudy skies and brief showers or thunderstorms to the west on Wednesday, while eastern parts of the island will scattered showers. Showers are likely to continue across much of the island on Thursday. The rain is forecast to ease off on Friday as northeasterly winds weaken and we'll see mostly cloudy to sunny skies islandwide. Russia Ukraine Strikes Leave Over Dozen Dead Strikes across Ukraine, Russian-occupied territory and Russia have killed at least 16 people. The attacks on Sunday coincided with the 40th anniversary of the Chernobyl disaster, prompting warnings about risks near the plant. Ukrainian forces struck an oil refinery in Russia, sparking fires. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy warned that Russian attacks risk repeating history. Rafael Grossi of the International Atomic Energy Agency stresses the need for immediate (即時) repairs to Chernobyl's protective shell. The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development estimates (估計) that the repairs will require at least $586 million US dollars. Death toll from bus bombing in southwest Colombia rises to 20 during a waveof violence The death toll has risen in the weekend bombing attack on a bus in Colombia. AP correspondent Donna Warder reports. Japan Earthquake Hits but No Damage Reported A magnitude 6.2 earthquake shook part of northern Japan early today, but no damage or casualties have been reported. No tsunami advisory was issued by the Japan Meteorological Agency. The U.S. Geological Survey said the epicenter was west of the small town of Sarabetsu on Japan's northernmost main island of Hokkaido. The USGS said the magnitude was 6.1 and the quake was about 81 kilometers . A week ago, a 7.7 magnitude earthquake prompted Japan to issue an advisory (公告,警告) of a slightly higher risk of a possible megaquake for the nation's northeastern coastal areas. That was the I.C.R.T.

Naciones Unidas comienza la carrera para elegir quién sucederá al portugués Antonio Guterres. Cuatro candidatos, una chilena, un argentino, una costarricense y un senegalés, comienzan el proceso que definirá a su próximo secretario o su primera secretaria general en la historia del organismo.... ¿Podría el liderazgo femenino ser el volantazo que la ONU necesita en tiempos de crisis? Es en Nueva York donde esta semana se llevarán a cabo las primeras audiciones públicas con los cuatro candidatos que aspiran al máximo cargo diplomático del planeta. Los cuatro candidatos son la expresidenta chilena y ex Alta Comisionada de la ONU para los Derechos Humanos, Michele Bachelet, el argentino Rafael Grossi, director del Organismo Internacional de la Energía Atómica, la costarricense Rebeca Grynspan, secretaria general de la Conferencia de la ONU sobre Comercio y Desarrollo, y el senegalés Macky Sall, ex presidente y primer ministro del país. Estas audiencias públicas son una etapa preliminar del proceso para designar al líder de la organización. Se someterán durante tres horas cada uno a preguntas de los 193 Estados miembro y de representantes de la sociedad civil. Es la segunda vez en sus ocho décadas de existencia que la ONU organiza una sesión de este tipo, creada en 2016 para mayor transparencia. En sus 80 años, nunca ha habido una mujer al frente del organismo. Si Bachelet o Grynspan se imponen, una latinoamericana sería la primera secretaria general en la historia de la ONU. Hace 10 años, cuando fue elegido Antonio Guterres, seis hombres y siete mujeres pelearon por el cargo, entre ellas, otra latinoamericana, Susana Malcorra, excanciller argentina, ex jefa del gabinete de Ban Ki Moon y cofundadora de GWL Voices. "En 2016 había siete candidatas mujeres y seis candidatos hombres. Cuando uno analiza las candidatas que éramos, uno puede encontrar representados allí todos los perfiles a los cuales se pueden aspirar. Desde desde ex primeras ministras, como fue el caso de Helen Clark, a este ministras y ex ministras. Entre el grupo había muchas, había muchas de nosotras que aparte también teníamos una experiencia amplia en el sistema. Había algunas de nosotras que tenía experiencia en el sector privado que le agregaba otra perspectiva", dice Malcorra a RFI. "Entonces, si uno quería filtrar por un cierto criterio las candidaturas, yo diría que siempre había una candidata como mínimo que cuadraba con ese criterio y ninguna de nosotras estuvo a la altura. Entonces a mí me cuesta mucho creer, viendo la fortaleza del grupo de mujeres que nos presentamos, que no hubiera una sola mujer que pudiera este cubrir los requisitos. Yo estoy convencida de que cuando se toman las decisiones a puerta cerrada, las cuestiones de los sesgos tienen su importancia. Y creo que eso fue lo que pasó", señala Malcorra. Malcorra analiza que, con el multilateralismo en crisis, la ONU atraviesa un momento bajo y el liderazgo femenino podría ser el volantazo que se necesita para revivir el espíritu del organismo. "Estamos conformes que haya dos latinoaméricanas que sean candidatas y por supuesto nos gustaría ver que haya aún más. Este es un momento que pide una renovación profunda de las Naciones Unidas, que reclama un restablecimiento de la confianza en las Naciones Unidas, una energía nueva en las Naciones Unidas y a mí se me ocurren pocas cosas tan impactantes como que de repente que sea una mujer quien lidere". "Sólo pensar cuánto interés va a provocar en la prensa, cuánto interés va a provocar en la gente común, cuánto va a significar para los jóvenes y, sobre todo, las jóvenes como símbolo de que es posible. Yo creo que las mujeres traemos una perspectiva distinta en la conducción de las organizaciones, en la resolución de los problemas, a la hora de tender puentes y encontrar ángulos distintos Me parece que eso es fundamental, sobre todo en el momento en el que está el mundo y el sistema mismo. Por eso creo que es tan importante que una mujer sea considerada y que una mujer finalmente llegue a la posición de secretaria general". El Consejo de Seguridad se reunirá a finales de julio para discutir a puertas cerradas las candidaturas.

Can the US and Iran strike a last-minute nuclear deal to end the war?With the two-week ceasefire deadline expiring on Wednesday, peace talks are tentatively set to go ahead in Pakistan between US Vice President JD Vance and an Iranian delegation led by Mohammad Ghalibaf. Donald Trump has threatened to resume bombing if negotiations fail, but a major stumbling block remains: Iran's nuclear programme. Washington wants Tehran to end all advanced uranium enrichment and give up its 450kg of “nuclear dust” that is currently buried under rubble. Rafael Grossi, director-general of the International Atomic Energy Agency, tells foreign editor Louis Emanuel that without proper verification on the ground, any agreement will be an “illusion”. Meanwhile, senior foreign correspondent Memphis Barker explains how the "ghost" of the previous Iran nuclear agreement - Barack Obama's 2015 JCPOA - looms large over everything. Can Trump strike a better deal now than the one he tore up in 2018?Plus, Roland Oliphant runs through the latest updates and news from across the region, including what is going on in the Strait of Hormuz and some clarity on when the ceasefire actually ends.

Hii leo jaridani tunakuletea mada kwa kina Flora Nducha wa Idhaa hii anazungumza na mmoja wa walioshiriki mkutano wa CSW70, Masidis Scholastica Madowo Mbunge katika Bunge la Kaunti ya Siaya akiwakilisha kata ya South East Alego jimbo la Magharibi mwa Kenya, ili kuangazia kile anachokifanya kwenye Kaunti yake kuhakikisha wanawake wanapata haki hizo.Hii leo katika Makao Makuu ya Umoja wa Mataifa jijini New York Marekani kutafanyika mdahalo wa wagombea wa nafasi ya Katibu Mkuu wa Umoja huo ambapo wagombea wanne wamejitokeza kuwania wawili wanaume na wawili wanawake. Wagombea hao ni Michelle Bachelet kutoka nchini Chile, Rafael Grossi kutoka nchini Argentina, Rebeca Grynspan kutoka Costa Rica, na Macky Sall kutoka nchini Senegal.Wakati huo huo Rais wa Baraza Kuu la Umoja wa Mataifa, Annalena Baerbock, amesema mchakato wa kumchagua Katibu Mkuu mpya wa Umoja wa Mataifa ni hatua muhimu itakayoamua mwelekeo wa taasisi hiyo na mustakabali wa ushirikiano wa kimataifa. Akizungumza na waandishi wa habari katika Makao Makuu ya Umoja wa Mataifa jijini New York Marekani kabla ya kuanza kwa mdahalo huo wa wazi, Baerbock ameeleza kuwa uchaguzi huo una umuhimu mkubwa duniani kote, ukigusa maisha ya zaidi ya watu bilioni nane, “Uamuzi huu si wa kiutawala tu, bali ni ujumbe kuhusu maadili na mwelekeo wa Umoja wa Mataifa katika kukabiliana na changamoto za dunia ya leo.”Takribani wahamiaji 8,000 waliripotiwa kufariki dunia au kutoweka duniani kote mwaka 2025, na kufanya jumla ya wahamiaji waliopoteza maisha tangu 2014 kufikia zaidi ya watu 82,000, hii imebainishwa katika takwimu mpya zilizotolewa leo na Shirika la Umoja wa Mataifa la Uhamiaji IOM. Takwimu hizo pia zinaonesha athari kubwa kwa familia, ambapo takribani watu 340,000 wameathirika moja kwa moja. IOM imeonya kuwa njia za uhamiaji si salama na zinazidi kuwa hatari.Na katika kujifunza lugha ya Kiswahili na hii leo Mtaalam wetu Dkt. Mwanahija Ali Juma, Katibu Mtendaji wa Baraza la Kiswahili, Zanzibar nchini Tanzania, BAKIZA anafafanua maana na matumizi ya neno "UNYUMBA" Mwenyeji wako ni Rashid Malekela, karibu!
Qui va succéder à Antonio Guterres fin 2026 au poste de secrétaire général de l'ONU ? Aujourd'hui et demain, les quatre candidats sont auditionnés par l'Assemblée générale à New York. Sont en lice la Chilienne Michelle Bachelet, l'Argentin Rafael Grossi, la Costa-Ricaine Rebeca Grynspan et le Sénégalais Macky Sall. L'ancien chef d'État du Sénégal peut-il gagner ? Christophe Boisbouvier a posé la question à Francis Kpatindé, l'ancien porte-parole du HCR pour l'Afrique, qui enseigne aujourd'hui à Sciences Po Paris et qui n'exclut pas la victoire au finish d'un OVNI, à savoir Gianni Infantino, le patron de la FIFA. RFI : Francis Kpatindé, qui est favori selon vous pour succéder à Antonio Guterres ? Francis Kpatindé : Ils sont quatre candidats à passer le grand oral aujourd'hui et demain. Mais le sentiment général à New York, au siège de l'organisation, reste néanmoins que celle ou celui qui sera élu ne figure pas encore sur la liste actuelle, même si la date de dépôt des candidatures fixée au 1ᵉʳ avril est passée. Il ne faut donc pas exclure d'autres candidatures dans les semaines ou mois à venir. Un candidat peut donc surgir à la dernière minute et rafler la mise. Au siège de l'ONU, à New York toujours, certains évoquent déjà la candidature de l'actuel vice-secrétaire générale Amina J. Mohammed, qui est métisse, binationale du Nigeria et de la Grande-Bretagne. Et même, tenez-vous bien, celle du président en exercice de la FIFA, Gianni Infantino, connu pour sa proximité avec le président américain Donald Trump. Oui, donc c'est très ouvert. Mais si on en reste à ces quatre candidats actuels, quel est à votre avis le mieux placé ? Moi, je pense que ce sera un des candidats latino-américains. Donc soit l'ancienne présidente du Chili, Michelle Bachelet, soit l'actuel patron de l'Agence de l'énergie atomique, l'Argentin Rafael Grossi ? Oui, c'est ça. Et soit Madame Rebecca Grynspan aussi. Qui a été vice-présidente du Costa Rica ? Du Costa Rica. Voilà. La décision finale reviendra aux quinze membres du Conseil de sécurité, dont cinq ont le droit de veto. C'est à eux de donner le nom, de suggérer le nom à l'Assemblée générale des Nations unies. Et entre madame Bachelet, monsieur Grossi et madame Grynspan, qui a le meilleur profil pour plaire à la fois à l'Amérique, à la Chine et à la Russie ? Madame Bachelet est candidate. Elle a déjà travaillé aux Nations unies. Elle a même dirigé le Haut-Commissariat aux droits de l'homme des Nations Unies, tout comme ONU-Femmes. Et elle connaît le sérail. Mais comme elle est marquée à gauche, son pays, donc le Chili, lui a retiré sa couverture. Donc, à mon avis, elle aura quelques petites difficultés. Rafael Grossi semble être proche du gouvernement actuel, le gouvernement conservateur argentin et également, donc, il pourrait avoir les faveurs du président américain Donald Trump. Donc, je pense que Rafael Grossi pourrait emporter la mise parce que son profil correspond à l'air du temps. Et parce qu'il garde de bons rapports avec Vladimir Poutine et Xi Jinping ? Absolument. Il a de bons rapports aussi bien avec le président américain et le président de son pays qu'avec donc le président chinois et le président russe. Alors, parmi les quatre candidats, il y a donc l'ancien président du Sénégal, Macky Sall. Quelles sont ses chances alors ? Macky Sall joue une partie difficile. D'abord, l'Afrique a déjà occupé la fonction à deux reprises, donc a eu deux secrétaires généraux avec l'Egyptien Boutros Boutros-Ghali et le Ghanéen Kofi Annan. Sa candidature n'est pas portée par son pays d'origine ni par l'Union africaine. Pour faire bref, Macky Sall est le candidat du Burundi et de quelques autres chefs d'État africains, dont le Congolais Denis Sassou-Nguesso. Par ailleurs, la gouvernance politique et économique de Macky Sall fait l'objet de vifs débats depuis deux ans. Ses adversaires mettent en exergue la répression contre la jeunesse urbaine et des opposants, et le fait qu'il ait laissé derrière lui une dette cachée pour le moins colossale. Alors ce que disent les proches de l'ancien président sénégalais, c'est que s'il y avait eu un veto de l'un des cinq membres permanents du Conseil de sécurité, il n'aurait pas maintenu sa candidature. Mais le véto, vous savez, le veto jouera plus tard. À mon avis, on est au début d'un processus et la question du veto ne se pose pas pour l'instant. Mais Macky Sall ne joue-t-il pas sur le fait que pendant ses douze ans à la tête du Sénégal, il a noué de bons rapports, il a noué des rapports de confiance, à la fois avec Donald Trump, avec Xi Jinping, avec Vladimir Poutine. Il est allé essayer de faire une médiation entre Kiev et Moscou en 2022 ? Absolument. Macky Sall connaît tout ce monde pour avoir été président du Sénégal et président en exercice de l'Union africaine. Il faut le rappeler également. Mais vous savez, en face de lui, il y a des gens qui sont aguerris. Ce ne sont pas des bleus, il y a madame Bachelet qui a été présidente du Chili, qui a dirigé l'ONU-Femmes, qui a dirigé le Haut-Commissariat des Nations unies pour les droits de l'homme. Il y a Monsieur Grossi également, qui dirige une agence qui est capitale aujourd'hui dans l'évolution pour l'énergie atomique. Donc pour vous, Macky Sall, c'est un outsider ? Moi, je pense sincèrement, avec tout le respect qu'on lui doit, parce qu'il a été président du Sénégal pendant douze ans, je pense qu'il n'a vraiment pas de chance d'être le prochain secrétaire, le 10e secrétaire général des Nations unies. Ce serait une surprise ? Absolument. Ce serait une surprise, mais une grande surprise. Mais je ne pense pas qu'il remplisse les cases pour être le 10ᵉ secrétaire général des Nations unies.

O surgimento de Péter Magyar como adversário direto de Orbán e possível vencedor das eleições na Hungria foi um dos principais destaques do Leste/Oeste de Nuno Rogeiro. O comentador analisa a ascensão de Magyar e a erosão gradual da hegemonia de Viktor Orbán, salientando a interferência externa por parte da Rússia e dos EUA. No Médio Oriente a situação continua tensa, apesar do cessar-fogo. O diretor da Agência Internacional da Energia Atómica diz que não existem provas que o Irão tenha o seu plano nuclear ativo, mas isso não parece demover Donald Trump que entretanto anunciou que iria bloquear todos os movimentos no Estreito de Ormuz. Qual é o papel da NATO neste conflito? O Leste/Oeste foi exibido na SIC Notícias a 12 de abril.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
As the war with Iran intensifies, key questions remain unanswered about Iran's nuclear capabilities, especially for the man tasked with monitoring them. A conversation with filmmaker and correspondent Sebastian Walker about his recent interview with Rafael Grossi, the head of the United Nations' nuclear watchdog, the International Atomic Energy Agency. Grossi says inspectors no longer have visibility into Iran's nuclear program.
Today on the show, one month of war with Iran. Iran has rejected President Trump's 15-point peace plan to end the war. At the center of the proposed deal is Iran's nuclear program. Fareed speaks with Rafael Grossi, head of the IAEA, about Iran's potential to rebuild their nuclear capabilities following the ongoing bombardment, and how a deal might be reached. Then, as President Trump dispatches thousands of additional troops to the Middle East, Fareed talks to Ret. Lt. Gen. Mark Hertling about where the war is headed. Later, there are perhaps no more enthusiastic supporters of regime change in Iran than the Iranians living outside of the country. Fareed asks Iranian American journalist Azadeh Moaveni about the politics of the large and vocal diaspora. Finally, Mark Zuckerberg's Meta lost two landmark court cases this week, as juries found some social media platforms liable for addicting or harming kids. Fareed asks founder of the Center for Humane Technology Tristan Harris if there will be a real reckoning for tech giants.

Mzozo wa Mashariki ya Kati ukiingia wiki ya nne tangu uanze tarehe 28 mwezi uliopita wa Februari, Umoja wa Mataifa leo umeonya kuwa athari mbaya za kibinadamu na uchumi wa kimataifa zinaongezeka wakati mzozo huo ukivuruga kabisa njia muhimu za usambazaji wa bidhaa ndani ya Mashariki ya Kati na kwingineko duniani. Flora Nducha na taarifa zaidi.Asante Assumpta. Kwa mujibu wa mashirika ya Umoja wa Mataifa, mzozo unaoendelea Mashariki ya Kati sasa umevuka mipaka ya eneo hilo, ukiathiri pia Asia na Afrika, hasa katika biashara na usafirishaji.Taarifa ya Ofisi ya Umoja wa Mataifa ya Miradi na Huduma, UNOPS inaonya kuwa mamilioni ya watu wako hatarini kutokana na athari za kibinadamu na kiuchumi. Mkuu wa shirika hilo, Jorge Moreira da Silva, amesema kuvurugika kwa usafirishaji kupitia Mlango Bahari wa Hormuz kumesababisha mshtuko mkubwa wa kiuchumi duniani.Amesema “Nchi zinazoendelea barani Asia na Afrika zina uwezekano mkubwa wa kubeba gharama kubwa zaidi hali inayotishia usalama wa chakula,” na kuongeza kuwa njaa duniani inaweza kuongezeka kwa makumi ya mamilioni ya watu.Pia amesema mgogoro huu unazidisha hali mbaya iliyopo katika nchi kama Sudan, Sudan Kusini, Afghanistan, Yemen, na Somalia, ambapo mifumo ya chakula tayari ni dhaifuAmeonya pia kuwa mashambulizi dhidi ya meli na kuvunjika kwa minyororo ya usambazaji kunazuia upatikanaji wa dawa na misaada, hasa Gaza, huku vita vikienea vinaweza pia kuhatarisha fedha zinazotumwa nyumbani kwa familia, hasa Asia Kusini.Nchini Lebanon, kwa mujibu wa Sirika la Umoja wa Mataifa la Kuhudumia Watoto UNICEF, zaidi ya watu 1,000 wameuawa na wengine zaidi ya 2,500 kujeruhiwa tangu mapema Machi, wakiwemo wahudumu wa afya, wanahabari na wafanyakazi wa misaada.Watoto wanaendelea kubeba mzigo mkubwa.

Esta semana, o Burundi, que exerce a presidência rotativa da União Africana, apresentou a candidatura do ex-Presidente senegalês ao cargo de secretário-geral das Nações Unidas. Até agora, os Estados africanos ainda não reagiram oficialmente a esta proposta. A candidatura de Macky Sall não conta com o apoio do Senegal, uma vez que o ex-chefe de Estado é acusado pela nova liderança do país de ocultar dados económicos importantes, como a dívida pública. O último mandato do Presidente senegalês ficou ainda marcado por episódios de violência e repressão da população. Régio Conrado, professor de Ciência Política e Direito na Universidade Eduardo Mondlane, em Moçambique, afirma que “Macky Sall não é a pessoa certa para representar os interesses africanos”. Esta semana, o Burundi, que exerce a presidência rotativa da União Africana, apresentou a candidatura do ex-Presidente senegalês ao cargo de secretário-geral das Nações Unidas. Que comentário lhe merece esta candidatura? É profundamente complicado que um Presidente que já foi chefe de Estado num país que não o reconhece como candidato oficial -e, portanto, não é apoiado pelas autoridades do seu próprio país -seja apresentado pelo actual presidente da União Africana, o Presidente do Burundi, e não necessariamente pela própria União Africana. Isto já significa que há um duplo problema. Por um lado, há um problema de legitimidade no próprio país de origem, onde foi chefe de Estado. Por outro lado, os restantes chefes de Estado do continente africano ainda não se pronunciaram sobre o assunto, o que mostra que esta é uma iniciativa particular do Presidente do Burundi. É muito provavelmente uma má iniciativa e Macky Sall está, provavelmente, à procura de uma saída internacional, talvez para escapar a eventuais responsabilizações que possam recair sobre ele, não só no plano interno do país, mas também como uma forma de sobrevivência política através de dinâmicas internacionais. O antigo chefe de Estado do Senegal é a pessoa certa para representar o continente africano nos fóruns internacionais? Não, ele não é a pessoa certa para representar os interesses africanos. Quando esteve na presidência do Senegal e mesmo na presidência rotativa da União Africana, esteve muito mais ligado aos interesses franceses, funcionando quase como um dispositivo operativo -um cipaio, digamos -não dos interesses africanos, mas sobretudo dos interesses franceses e, por consequência, dos interesses europeus. Não é uma figura que, no continente africano, possa ser vista como a mais razoável para ocupar este lugar neste momento. Precisamos de uma figura pan-africana, com uma percepção de independência profundamente entranhada. Alguém que tenha uma visão de África fora das relações de subordinação ou de neocolonialismo com o Ocidente. Portanto, uma figura que congregue e agregue respeitabilidade no plano da defesa dos interesses africanos. E quem poderia ser essa pessoa? A actual Presidente da Tanzânia poderia, provavelmente, sugerir alguém da sua máxima confiança para representar os interesses africanos. Temos também Carlos Lopes, que é uma grande figura no continente africano e que tem estado sempre na linha da frente da defesa dos interesses africanos. Para além da sua carreira académica, é uma figura que já trabalhou com vários secretários-gerais das Nações Unidas e que tem uma longa experiência dentro das estruturas da organização e da União Africana. É uma figura alinhada com a defesa dos interesses africanos. Carlos Lopes, antigo secretário executivo da Comissão Económica das Nações Unidas em África , poderia reunir o consenso dos líderes africanos? Penso que ele tem todo o potencial para reunir muitos consensos. Primeiro, porque não se trata de uma figura amarrada a um determinado país. Mesmo sendo originário da Guiné-Bissau, é uma figura completamente pan-africana. Isso poderia evitar, talvez, algumas clivagens regionais. Agora, também sabemos que os processos de negociação para apresentar uma candidatura são sempre profundamente complexos. E, obviamente, esses processos nem sempre traduzem aquilo que são as verdadeiras convicções de todos os actores envolvidos. África tem reclamado uma maior presença nas diferentes organizações das Nações Unidas. Já houve dois secretários-gerais africanos, Boutros Boutros-Ghali e Kofi Annan. Há possibilidade de o próximo secretário-geral das Nações Unidas ser oriundo do continente africano? Fica muito difícil. O que podemos dizer é que, neste momento, tendo em conta aquilo que África tem defendido -uma maior presença nos diferentes organismos das Nações Unidas, e muito particularmente ao nível do Conselho de Segurança, essa reivindicação faz sentido. Estamos a falar de 54 países e de um continente com uma população que ultrapassa mil milhões de pessoas. É um continente que tem um peso muito profundo e determinante para o futuro do mundo. O problema é que o mundo em que vivemos hoje mostra que várias potências procuram também controlar as Nações Unidas. Até ao momento foram apresentadas duas candidaturas oficiais: a da ex-Presidente chilena Michelle Bachelet e a do responsável da Agência Internacional de Energia Atómica, Rafael Grossi. A Costa Rica também nomeou a ex-Presidente Rebeca Grynspan, mas a candidatura ainda não é oficial. Segundo uma tradição de rotação geográfica, que nem sempre é observada, o cargo estaria agora a ser disputado pela América Latina. Muitos países defendem também que uma mulher deveria ocupar este cargo. A organização está preparada para ter uma mulher na liderança? Neste momento, o continente que está melhor posicionado parece ser a América Latina, onde há quase um consenso generalizado. Grandes potências regionais como o Brasil e a Argentina, bem como outros países que orbitam à volta destas potências, podem ser determinantes para orientar a dinâmica da escolha do próximo secretário-geral. Na minha opinião, mais do que nunca ficou demonstrado que as mulheres têm capacidade para dirigir determinadas agências das Nações Unidas, grandes programas e a diplomacia de alto nível no sistema internacional. Não me parece irrazoável pensar que uma mulher possa reunir consensos para dirigir a organização. Seria também uma forma de chamar a atenção para a necessidade de confiar responsabilidades às mulheres que demonstraram competências, ao longo das suas carreiras, sobretudo quando se trata de figuras que têm estado empenhadas em temas centrais como a paz, o desenvolvimento e outras questões fundamentais da agenda internacional. Relativamente à questão da paz: de que forma o contexto actual, com uma guerra no Médio Oriente e outros conflitos em várias partes do mundo, pode influenciar a escolha do novo secretário-geral da ONU? Está cada vez mais evidente que as Nações Unidas precisam de uma reforma profunda para aprimorar a sua capacidade de resolução dos grandes conflitos. Com a emergência de novos conflitos, marcados pela força física e pela brutalidade nas relações internacionais, assistimos também à erosão do direito internacional e à fragmentação da capacidade das Nações Unidas para resolver problemas complexos. Veja-se, por exemplo, a situação envolvendo o Irão, Israel e os Estados Unidos. Torna-se claro que chegou o momento de repensar a arquitectura das Nações Unidas, a arquitectura do Conselho de Segurança e o próprio sistema internacional de promoção da paz. O que é facto é que, neste momento, as Nações Unidas têm demonstrado limitações profundas - para não dizer fragilidades - na capacidade de conter os conflitos no mundo. Muitos dos conflitos em que a organização interveio continuam por resolver. São os membros do Conselho de Segurança que deverão iniciar o processo de selecção até ao final de Julho, em particular os cinco membros permanentes com poder de veto -Estados Unidos, China, Rússia, Reino Unido e França - que detêm, na prática, o futuro dos candidatos nas mãos. São conhecidas as divergências actuais. O que se pode esperar desta eleição? A Grã-Bretanha é hoje um país que pesa muito pouco no sistema internacional. Tem pouca capacidade de influenciar o processo. O verdadeiro debate vai acontecer entre as grandes potências. A China e a Rússia estão em confrontação directa com o Ocidente e encontram apoio em vários países do chamado Sul global, como o Brasil e a África do Sul, que são actores importantes. Há também países como o Irão e outros que defendem que não é positivo que haja uma dominação ocidental das instituições internacionais. Estas clivagens já existentes e o agravamento das tensões internacionais -como a situação envolvendo o Irão - vão certamente tornar o processo mais complexo. O que está em jogo nas próximas eleições para secretário-geral das Nações Unidas não é apenas a questão da eficácia, como defende a Grã-Bretanha. O que está em jogo é quem vai influenciar o rumo do sistema internacional nos próximos anos: sobre que bases serão tomadas as decisões, qual será a arquitectura das Nações Unidas e sob que orientação política actuará o próximo secretário-geral. Essas são as grandes questões. Que força terão os países africanos nesta escolha? Hoje não é possível pensar qualquer arquitectura das Nações Unidas sem considerar os 54 países do continente africano. O que será profundamente importante é perceber até que ponto os países africanos conseguirão articular posições comuns. Muitos deles estão hoje mais alinhados com o discurso do chamado Sul global, nomeadamente com posições defendidas pela China, pela Rússia e pelo Brasil, e menos próximos das posições do Ocidente. Infelizmente, há também divisões dentro do próprio continente. Existem países que estão mais alinhados com interesses externos. A Costa do Marfim, por exemplo, mantém uma forte proximidade com a França e, por consequência, com a União Europeia. Há também outros países pequenos que seguem essa linha. Mas há igualmente países com posições fortemente pan-africanas -como a África do Sul, o Quénia, a Tanzânia, Moçambique ou Angola -que podem defender um posicionamento mais autónomo do Sul global. O peso do continente africano dependerá da capacidade de coordenação política entre os seus líderes e da capacidade do presidente da União Africana de construir consensos entre os diferentes países e regiões. Mas tudo começa mal quando um presidente da União Africana decide avançar com uma candidatura sem um consenso mínimo, porque isso revela desde logo um processo de divisão desnecessária.
Terwyl aanvalle in die Midde-Ooste uitbrei, sê die hoof van die Verenigde Nasies se kernwaghond, Rafael Grossi, Iran was nie naby ontwikkeling van 'n kernwapen nie, wat Amerikaanse president Donald Trump se bewering dat Iran 'n dreigende kernbedreiging inhou weerspreek. Op 'n vraag deur CNN se Becky Anderson of die Iraniërs dae of weke weg was van die bou van 'n bom, het Grossi so geantwoord:
En su cuenta de X, el director del Organismo Internacional para la Energía Atómica, Rafael Grossi, escribió que «no hay pruebas de que Irán esté fabricando una bomba nuclear».Antes en declaraciones a medios televisivos de EEUU, Grossi comentó que «sí, hay muchas razones para preocuparse, pero no iba a haber una bomba mañana o pasado mañana. Obviamente muchos países, ese es el caso de Estados Unidos o Israel y de otros, pueden tener la impresión de que todas estas actividades están dirigidas directamente a la fabricación de un arma nuclear.
Dalam konferensi pers yang digelar di Wina, Austria, Rafael Grossi, Kepala Badan Energi Atom Internasional (IAEA), menyampaikan bahwa hingga saat ini tidak ditemukan bukti adanya program sistematis untuk produksi senjata nuklir di Iran. Grossi menegaskan bahwa meskipun operasi militer Amerika Serikat dan Israel telah berlangsung, hingga kini tidak ada kebocoran radioaktif besar yang terdeteksi. IAEA tetap melakukan penilaian lebih lanjut dan mengaktifkan mekanisme tanggap darurat.
Donald Trump afirmó: “Tras la destrucción del programa nuclear iraní en la Operación Martillo de Medianoche hace poco, advertimos a Irán que no intentara reconstruirlo en otro lugar, ya que no podían utilizar los que destruimos con tanta potencia. Sin embargo, ignoraron esas advertencias y se negaron a abandonar su búsqueda de armas nucleares. Además, el programa de misiles balísticos convencionales del régimen crecía rápida y drásticamente, lo que representaba una amenaza muy clara y colosal para Estados Unidos y nuestras fuerzas estacionadas en el extranjero. El régimen ya contaba con misiles capaces de alcanzar Europa y nuestras bases, tanto locales como en el extranjero, y pronto tendría misiles capaces de alcanzar nuestra hermosa América”.“Esta era nuestra última gran chance para actuar como lo estamos haciendo ahora mismo y eliminar las amenazas intolerables que representa este régimen perverso y siniestro, y realmente lo es. Nuestros objetivos son claros. Primero, estamos destruyendo la capacidad de misiles de Irán, y esto se ve a cada hora, así como su capacidad para producir misiles nuevos y de muy buena calidad. Segundo, estamos aniquilando su armada. Ya hemos inutilizado diez barcos. Están en el fondo del mar”, agregó Trump.Trump se refirió al conflicto con Irán: “Tenemos el ejército más fuerte y poderoso, con diferencia, del mundo. Y prevaleceremos fácilmente. Ya estamos muy adelantados en nuestras proyecciones de tiempo. Pero sea cual sea el momento, está bien. Cueste lo que cueste, siempre lo haremos”.El director de la OEIA, Rafael Grossi, señala: "En cuanto al estado de las instalaciones nucleares en Irán hasta ahora, no tenemos ninguna indicación de que alguna de ellas, incluida la central nuclear de Bushehr, el reactor de investigación de Teherán u otras instalaciones del ciclo del combustible nuclear, hayan sido dañadas o alcanzadas”.Benjamin Netanyahu aseguró: “Bombardearon sus embajadas. Intentaron asesinar a Donald Trump, el presidente de Estados Unidos, dos veces. Han asesinado a su propio pueblo. Masacraron a tantos y extendieron una red mundial de terror. Así que este es un régimen comprometido con la destrucción de Estados Unidos de América. Es el único país del planeta que lo dice abiertamente y trabaja incansablemente para lograr ese objetivo”.Noticias del martes 3 de marzo por el equipo de De Acá en Más por Urbana Play 104.3 FMSeguí a De Acá en Más en Instagram y XUrbana Play 104.3 FM.

As nuclear tensions rise worldwide and the war in Ukraine reshapes global security, Rafael Grossi stands at the centre of the world's most dangerous calculations. The director general of the International Atomic Energy Agency discusses the risks of escalation, the limits of diplomacy and the credibility of nuclear oversight. Now a declared candidate for United Nations secretary-general, Grossi also addresses calls to reform what critics describe as a weakened institution. Can the UN still prevent conflict, or is the global order fragmenting beyond repair?

Is the age of nuclear nonproliferation over? There are certainly worrying signs. New START, the main nuclear treaty between the United States and Russia, recently expired. China is rapidly expanding its nuclear arsenal. Talks to bring Iran back to the negotiating table seem to be at an impasse. And one increasingly hears about the possibility of South Korea or Japan going nuclear. What can the world do in response?

Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this episode of The Wright Report, we cover the heartbreaking Catholic school shooting in Minneapolis, a wave of swatting attacks targeting U.S. colleges, and global updates from Iran, Greenland, Vietnam, and West Africa. From domestic terror and cultural battles at home to mineral wars and Islamist violence abroad, today's brief delivers the facts shaping America's future. Minneapolis Catholic School Shooting: A 23-year-old man who identified as transgender opened fire outside a Catholic school, killing two children and injuring 17 others. In his manifesto he wrote, “I do it to please myself… I do it because I am sick.” The school's priest begged, “I ask you to — please — pray,” while Democrats like Jen Psaki shot back, “Prayer is not freaking enough.” Bryan calls Psaki's remarks “a demand of the evil and wicked” and links the shooter's instability to cross-sex hormones, THC use, and the broader dangers of experimental “gender affirming care.” Swatting Attacks Target U.S. Colleges: Universities from South Carolina to Colorado were hit by fake active-shooter calls, prompting dangerous police raids. Wired identifies the culprits as an online group called Purgatory, who brag they are “nihilistic” and do it for fun and cash. Bryan argues the crime warrants capital punishment: “You rip this stuff and these people out by the root.” Foreign Spies Captured Bolton's Emails: The New York Times confirms that a foreign intelligence service intercepted classified emails John Bolton sent to his wife and daughter from an unsecured system. Democrats call Trump's DOJ “fascist,” but Bryan insists, “Had I done what John Bolton did, I would be in prison a long time ago.” Iran's Nuclear Stockpile Neutralized: Satellite images confirm Trump's Operation Midnight Hammer left 900 pounds of enriched uranium entombed at Isfahan. The IAEA backs the finding, despite Iran threatening its director Rafael Grossi with death. Bryan says the news proves firing DIA chief Jeffrey Kruse for downplaying the strike was “a good clean-out of the Deep State.” American Operatives Stir Trouble in Greenland: The Wall Street Journal reports suspected Trump-linked contractors are recruiting Greenlanders for separatist movements, sparking tensions with Denmark. Bryan suspects, “These guys are more like Erik Prince's Blackwater than CIA professionals — sloppy, but maybe effective.” China Moves to Corner Vietnam's Tungsten Supply: Reuters reveals Chinese firms are secretly bidding for Vietnam's tungsten mines through front companies. With the U.S. sourcing a quarter of its tungsten from Vietnam, Bryan warns this could leave America “utterly dependent” on Beijing for another critical mineral.

Teherán může obnovit obohacování uranu v horizontu měsíců, varoval šéf Mezinárodní agentury pro atomovou energii Rafael Grossi. Izraelské a americké údery podle něj nedokázaly zničit vše, a je proto nutné vrátit se k jednacímu stolu. „Vojenský zásah byla chyba. Írán měl obrovskou touhu vyjednat smlouvu,“ říká bezpečnostní analytik Michal Smetana. „Bez něj by hrozba vypadala jako papírový tygr a na Írán by nefungovala,“ oponuje bývalý velvyslanec v Izraeli Jiří Schneider.
Iran has the capacity to start enriching uranium again - for a possible bomb - in "a matter of months", Rafael Grossi, head of the International Atomic Energy Agency, has said. In an interview with CBS news, Mr Grossi also said the US strikes on three Iranian sites last weekend had caused severe but "not total" damage, contradicting President Trump's claim that Iran's nuclear facilities were "totally obliterated".Also on the programme: one of Hong Kong's last remaining pro-democracy groups, the League of Social Democrats, has announced that it will disband; and we hear from The Who's Pete Townsend about the ballet version of the group's Quadrophenia album and film.(Photo: IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi in Vienna, Austria on 25 June, 2025.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Military correspondent Emanuel Fabian joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. Friday night, throngs of rioting Israeli settlers attacked IDF soldiers at the Palestinian village of Kafr Malik near Ramallah, after the forces arrived there to prevent them from rampaging in the village. Six Israelis were arrested following the violence. According to Hebrew media reports, the Israeli assailants beat, choked and hurled rocks at the troops. Later, on Saturday, a police outpost was vandalized by settlers in what authorities said was an apparent act of revenge for the arrest of the six suspects accused in the nighttime attack. Fabian explains the rollout of the events. This morning, UN nuclear watchdog chief Rafael Grossi told CBS news that Iran likely will be able to begin to produce enriched uranium “in a matter of months,” despite damage to several nuclear facilities from US and Israeli attacks. But this is in contrast to what IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir has reportedly told colleagues that Iran is no longer a nuclear threshold state following the Israeli and US strikes on its nuclear program. Fabian relays the army's assessment of the 12-day war and discusses whether the ceasefire will be similar to the November 27, 2024, ceasefire with Hezbollah. This morning, the IDF re-issued a wide evacuation warning for Palestinians in the Gaza City and Jabalia areas in the northern Gaza Strip. This comes as Zamir said Friday that the military’s latest offensive in Gaza will soon “reach the lines” defined by the government, which would see the military assert control over 75% of the territory. We hear what is happening on the ground in Gaza. Finally, one of the founders of Hamas, who was also one of the planners of its onslaught of October 7, 2023, was killed in an airstrike in Gaza City on Friday night. We learn about Hakem al-Issa, who served as chief of staff at the “combat and administrative support division” in the Palestinian terror group’s military wing.

As Israel bombs Iranian nuclear sites under International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) inspection, questions mount over nuclear double standards and the credibility of the global system. Iran accuses the IAEA of bias and complicity, while Israel - an undeclared nuclear power - remains outside treaty obligations. IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi responds to allegations, addresses fears of a nuclear arms race and warns of the consequences if diplomacy fails. Is the non-proliferation regime collapsing? Rafael Grossi, director general of the International Atomic Energy Agency, talks to Al Jazeera.
President Trump took to social media to warn Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei that he's an "easy target" and calling for unconditional surrender, adding to the fears of Iranians who are desperately trying to leave the capital since Trump told all 10 million to "immediately evacuate." Just before Israel launched its massive attacks, the International Atomic Energy Agency declared Iran in breach of its non-proliferation agreements for the first time in 20 years.

It's Tuesday, June 17th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Kevin Swanson and Adam McManus North Korean Christian, arrested in 2007, has disappeared International Christian Concern remembers another persecuted saint today among those who have disappeared into the hands of a tyrannical state. Kim Sung-sik of North Korea, who was arrested at the age of 49 in 2007 at his home, was remembered for distributing Bibles and for handing out gifts to needy folks. A North Korean defector described this man of God as having “character like steel.” He never bowed to anyone, and would even confront public officers for accepting bribes. His grandfather was a Presbyterian minister who had been persecuted and imprisoned by the Communist regime. Sung-Sik's wife and children, who were also arrested, have also disappeared. According to Open Doors, North Korea is the most dangerous place worldwide to live as a Christian. Chinese Communists want churches to sing worship songs praising communism The Chinese Communist Party, China's ruling political class, released a plan on May 7 mandating that Protestant churches include songs in their worship praising communism. Sadly, reports of Protestants representing the official Three-Self Patriotic church indicate they are complying with the new regulations. Nigerian Muslims massacred 200 villagers, mostly Catholic This just in from Truth Nigeria. Fulani Muslim jihadists massacred 200 villagers from the farming community in Guma County located in Benue State. Most of the residents are Catholics. Witnesses report that 40 gunmen stormed the village shouting “Allahu Akbar.” The terrorists opened fire on civilians while setting homes on fire, and killing indiscriminately. Over 10,000 survivors who escaped are now needing clean water, medical aid, and facilities to house them. Equipping the Persecuted ministry is collecting resources to provide for immediate needs. Over the last two years, 10,217 Nigerians have been killed in Muslim-inspired massacres, and about 6,900 of those killings have occurred in Benue State. Israel bombed 80 more Iranian targets In its ongoing war with Iran, Israel bombed 80 more targets on Sunday. At least 200 Iranians have died thus far in the attacks. The International Atomic Energy Agency's director Rafael Grossi has stated that Iran's underground nuclear development has not been compromised at this point. Global military spending up 37% Sabers are rattling. Louder than ever. According to the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute's Yearbook, published on Monday, world military spending rose by 37 percent in the past decade, and by 9.4 percent last year alone, to $2.7 trillion. That's the largest bump since the early 1990s. China and India are installing nuclear bombs on warheads. That's a change in policy for these countries. China is up to 600 nukes, and North Korea has enough fissile materials for 90 total warheads. Proverbs 21:31 says, “The horse is made ready for the day of battle, but the victory belongs to the Lord.” South Korea's largest homosexual pride parade South Korea is touting its largest homosexual pride parade ever this year. The organizers claim 170,000 participants. South Korea has absorbed western immorality faster than other eastern countries. The proportion of South Koreans holding that homosexuality is never justified decreased from 67% in the 1990s to 24% in the most recent survey. That's even lower than Taiwan -- the most pro-homosexual country in Asia. The Christian faith is falling off by generations in South Korea. At this point, 29% of their elderly people adhere to the Protestant faith, but only 13% of the 18 to 29-year-old age group call themselves Protestant Christians. Psalm 78:9 warns of “The children of Ephraim, being armed and carrying bows, turned back in the day of battle. They did not keep the covenant of God; They refused to walk in His law, and forgot His works and His wonders that He had shown them.” The rise of apostacy in America and China Christian apostasy continues to rise across the world. The recent Pew Research report on worldwide religious affiliation found that 35 nations have seen an increase between 2010 and 2020 in atheism or a non-affiliation with a church. And 40 nations have seen a substantial decrease in people aligning themselves with the Christian faith. Of all nations in the world, the United States has the second largest number of atheists or people unaffiliated with a church -- at 100 million people. China has the largest number of atheists or unaffiliated at 1.3 billion. Christians are still in the majority in 60% of the world's nations, while Muslims are in the majority in 26% of the countries. U.S. unemployment 4.2%, but higher for recent college grads Unemployment in the United States is running at 4.2%. But for recent college grads -- ages 22 through 27 -- the rate stands at 5.8% — the highest since 202, according to the US Labor Department. Minnesota political assassin captured Sunday night The gunman, Vance Boelter, wanted in the slaying of a Minnesota lawmaker and her husband, as well as in the shooting of a state senator and his wife, was found Sunday night armed and crawling in a field in a sparsely populated stretch of Minnesota, reports NBC News. Police Chief Mark Bruley of the Brooklyn Park Police Department said it was without a doubt the biggest manhunt in the state's history. Authorities allege Boelter, age 57, who posed as a policeman, tried to kill state Senator John Hoffman, a Democrat, and his wife, Yvette, at their home in Champlin at roughly 2 a.m. Saturday before fatally shooting state Rep. Melissa Hortman, a 55-year-old Democrat, and her husband, Mark, in nearby Brooklyn Park. Boelter was arrested without incident. His motive is still unclear. NBC Chicago reports that police found a manifesto in Boelter's car with the names of 70 politicians including those in Illinois and Wisconsin.
