พอดแคส บูรพาไม่แพ้ ในวันนี้ เราจะเล่าถึงเบื้องหลังของ งานรำลึกชัยชนะในสงครามต่อต้านญี่ปุ่น และสงครามโลกที่จีนจัดขึ้น ว่ามีนัยยะทั้งในอดีตและปัจจุบันอย่างไร และทำไมแต่ละประเทศในโลก จึงมีวันรำลึกการสิ้นสุดสงครามโลกที่ไม่ตรงกัน รวมถึงมีความคิดเห็น และมุมมองต่อประวัติศาสตร์ที่แตกต่างกันด้วย
Impressive, meaningful and historic — such were the keywords used by global leaders as they marveled at China's military parade commemorating the 80th anniversary of the victory in the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression (1931-45) and the World Anti-Fascist War.“令人印象深刻、富有意义且具有历史意义”——这是各国领导人在赞叹中国纪念中国人民抗日战争(1931-1945年)暨世界反法西斯战争胜利80周年阅兵仪式时,所使用的关键词。President Xi Jinping was joined by 26 foreign heads of state and government, as well as parliamentary speakers, deputy prime ministers and high-level representatives from different countries, on Wednesday as he oversaw a parade that showcased a range of China's new military hardware.周三,习近平主席同26位外国国家元首、政府首脑以及各国议会领导人、副总理和高级代表一道,出席阅兵观礼。此次阅兵展示了中国一系列新型军事装备。For the global leaders, the experience at the Tian'anmen Rostrum, where they witnessed the commemoration firsthand, was both awe-inspiring and thought-provoking.对于各国领导人而言,在天安门城楼亲身体验这场纪念活动,亲眼见证阅兵全过程,既令人心潮澎湃,也引人深思。According to a report by Russia's state news agency TASS, Russian President Vladimir Putin described Beijing's commemorative events as "held brilliantly, and simply very well, at a high level".据俄罗斯国家通讯社塔斯社报道,俄罗斯总统弗拉基米尔・普京称北京的纪念活动“举办得非常出色,水准极高,令人赞叹”。Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto, writing on his X account, highlighted that the commemoration "serves as a symbol of China's strength and courage as a nation steadfastly fighting for independence, safeguarding sovereignty, and actively playing a role in realizing world peace".印度尼西亚总统普拉博沃・苏比安托在其X平台账号上发文指出,此次纪念活动“是中国作为一个国家的力量与勇气的象征——中国坚定争取独立、维护主权,并积极为实现世界和平发挥作用”。"On this occasion, I conveyed my appreciation for the significant contributions of the People's Republic of China in maintaining global security," he wrote on Thursday, adding, "Upholding the spirit of the Victory Day, let us continue to strengthen the sustainable cooperation between Indonesia and China for the benefit of both countries."“值此之际,我对中华人民共和国在维护全球安全方面所作出的重大贡献表示赞赏。”他于周四写道,并补充道,“让我们秉持胜利日精神,继续加强印度尼西亚与中国之间的可持续合作,以造福两国人民。”The press service of Uzbek President Shavkat Mirziyoyev wrote in a post on X that the event reaffirmed Uzbekistan's foreign policy commitment to "fostering friendship and constructive dialogue for peace, sustainable development and prosperity".乌兹别克斯坦总统沙夫卡特・米尔济约耶夫的新闻办公室在X平台的一篇帖子中表示,此次活动再次彰显了乌兹别克斯坦在外交政策上的承诺,即“为实现和平、可持续发展与繁荣,推动友好关系与建设性对话”。In a bilateral meeting with Xi on Thursday, Zimbabwean President Emmerson Mnangagwa extended congratulations to China for hosting a "spectacular parade", saying the event was "something out of this world".在周四与习近平的双边会晤中,津巴布韦总统埃默森·姆南加古瓦就中国举办一场“壮观的阅兵式”向中国表示祝贺,称该活动“超凡脱俗”。"Undoubtedly, the commemorations will go a long way to promote the correct historical narrative of China's great contribution to World War II. The spirit of resilience of the Chinese people and their ironclad strength will remain a source of inspiration for generations to come," Mnangagwa said.“毫无疑问,此次纪念活动将极大地推动人们正确认识中国在二战中所作出的重大贡献这一历史事实。中国人民坚韧不拔的精神及其坚不可摧的力量,将继续成为激励世世代代的精神源泉。”姆南加古瓦表示。In a video posted on his account on X, Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico said that while some people interpreted the parade as a demonstration of China's military strength, he believes the event should "be viewed in the context of the serious statements made by Chinese President Xi Jinping".斯洛伐克总理罗伯特・菲科在其X账号发布的一段视频中表示,虽然有些人将此次阅兵解读为中国军事实力的展示,但他认为应该“从中国国家主席习近平发表的重要讲话这一背景下去看待”此次活动。"The Chinese president made it very clear that the world is facing a choice between peace and war, and that China has the will to play a decisive role in shaping the new peaceful order of the world," he said.“中国国家主席明确表示,当今世界正面临和平与战争的选择,而中国有意愿在构建世界新和平秩序中发挥决定性作用。”他说道。"I once again express my regret that the top representatives of the EU member states were absent from such a global event," Fico said. "If they thought that by doing so they would isolate China's celebrations of victory in World War II, they badly miscalculated."“对于欧盟成员国最高代表缺席这一全球性活动,我再次表示遗憾。”菲佐表示,“如果他们认为此举能孤立中国的二战胜利纪念活动,那他们就大错特错了。”Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim said it was an honor for him and his wife to view the event from the Tian'anmen Rostrum, adding that he thanks the Chinese president for "this meaningful and historic experience".马来西亚总理安华・易卜拉欣表示,能与夫人在天安门城楼观看此次活动,对他而言是一份荣幸。他还补充道,感谢中国国家主席给予他“这段富有意义且具有历史意义的经历”。"Beyond the impressive display of China's military assets, the parade stood as a powerful symbol of resistance against tyranny, oppression, aggression, greed for power, colonialism and imperialism — dark chapters in the history of human civilization," he said.他表示:“除了中国令人印象深刻的军事装备展示外,此次阅兵更是反抗暴政、压迫、侵略、权力贪欲、殖民主义与帝国主义的有力象征——这些都是人类文明史上的黑暗篇章。”"Yet, eight decades after the war's end, the world continues to face injustices and atrocities that unfold openly, often without challenge from major powers who speak loudly of democracy and human rights. True peace demands courage and firm conviction to reject injustice in all its forms," he said.他表示:“然而,在战争结束80年后,世界仍在遭遇各类不公与暴行,这些现象公然发生,而那些高谈民主与人权的大国往往对此无动于衷。真正的和平需要勇气与坚定的信念,去抵制一切形式的不公。”Miguel Diaz-Canel, first secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Cuba and Cuban president, said on his social media account, "Between a millennial history and a present that inspires millions, China leads today the battle for the rescue of multilateralism and global governance."古巴共产党中央委员会第一书记、古巴国家主席米格尔・迪亚斯-卡内尔在其社交媒体账号上表示:“在拥有千年历史的积淀与激励着数百万人的当下之间,中国如今正引领着维护多边主义、完善全球治理的斗争。”"Proud to support and share those postulates, Cuba is honored to attend the commemoration of the V-Day," he wrote.“古巴自豪地支持并认同这些原则,能出席此次胜利日纪念活动,我们深感荣幸。”他写道。Former Japanese prime minister Yukio Hatoyama said in an interview on his return to Japan after taking part in the V-Day events that he was deeply struck by the conviction that Japan must learn from history in order to face the future.日本前首相鸠山由纪夫在出席胜利日活动后返回日本接受采访时表示,他深切感受到,日本必须以史为鉴,才能面向未来,这一信念给他留下了深刻印象。"I, as a Japanese, attended the commemoration with a sense of reflection and remorse. I am grateful to have been invited to take part in the ceremony; it was highly meaningful," he told China Central Television.他在接受中国中央电视台采访时表示:“作为一名日本人,我怀着反思与愧疚的心情出席了此次纪念活动。非常感谢能受邀参与这一仪式,它具有极高的意义。”
This week, China showed off its military and diplomatic prowess at a giant Victory Day parade, with dozens of world leaders – but few from the West – in attendance. President Xi Jinping stood shoulder to shoulder with Russia's Vladimir Putin and North Korea's Kim Jong Un, declaring that China was "never intimidated by bullies". But does Beijing really want to create a new world order?
North Korean leader Kim Jong Un made his appearance at a large-scale multilateral event on Wednesday, standing shoulder to shoulder with Xi Jinping and Vladimir Putin at China's Victory Day parade in Beijing. But was this just optics, or did it mark a deeper realignment of global power blocs? NK News Lead Correspondent Shreyas Reddy joins this week's episode to explore what Kim's presence revealed about North Korea's shifting position globally, compare the 2025 parade to previous landmark events and discuss the risks for Kim in playing second fiddle to Xi and Putin. He also discusses why Kim's daughter — but not his wife — may have joined him for the trip to Beijing. About the podcast: The North Korea News Podcast is a weekly podcast hosted by Jacco Zwetsloot exclusively for NK News, covering all things DPRK — from news to extended interviews with leading experts and analysts in the field, along with insights from our very own journalists.
Beijing's commemorative events for the 80th anniversary of victory of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War have struck a chord with people far and wide (01:05).

In Ep 1725 of #CutTheClutter, Editor-in-Chief Shekhar Gupta explains how Xi has sent a message of military superiority as well as that of global pull with this parade.

MONEY FM 89.3 - Prime Time with Howie Lim, Bernard Lim & Finance Presenter JP Ong
China rolled out the tanks, the missiles, and the marching troops down Beijing’s historic Changan Avenue today — but this was no ordinary parade.Marking the 80th anniversary of victory over Japan in World War II, President Xi Jinping took center stage, flanked by none other than Russia’s Vladimir Putin and North Korea’s Kim Jong-un. Beyond the pageantry, the symbolism was loud and clear: this was a show of power and politics on the global stage. So what message was China trying to send — and how should the rest of the world be reading it? On The Big Story, Hongbin Jeong speaks with Professor Lim Tai Wei, East Asian Expert, Soka University, to find out more. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In this episode, Go Myong-hyun of Seoul's Institute for National Security Strategy returns to the podcast to assess the recent summit between South Korean President Lee Jae-myung and his U.S. counterpart Donald Trump. He also looks ahead to Kim Jong Un's expected appearance in Beijing on Sept. 3 for a Victory Day parade marking the 80th anniversary of Japan's surrender in World War II, where he said he expects optics to dominate over substance. Dr. Go Myong-hyun is the director at the Department of Security Strategy Studies at the Institute for National Security Strategy (INSS). Previously, he worked at the Institute for Security and Development Policy, focusing on hybrid threats in Northeast Asia and international coordination to counter them, and previously served as a senior fellow at the Asan Institute for Policy.

Twenty-six foreign heads of state and government will attend China's Victory Day commemorations, which will include a military parade, on Wednesday as Beijing hopes to use the event to reaffirm its commitment to defending the victorious outcomes of World War II and contributing to world peace and development.Russian President Vladimir Putin and top leader of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea Kim Jong-un will be among the world leaders attending the commemorations, Assistant Foreign Minister Hong Lei said at a news conference in Beijing on Thursday.It will be Putin's first visit to China since he held talks with United States President Donald Trump on the Ukraine crisis in Alaska earlier this month. Putin will also attend the Shanghai Cooperation Organization Summit in Tianjin, to be held from Sunday to Monday.His China visit also comes following President Xi Jinping's state visit to Russia in May and Xi's attendance at the celebration of the 80th anniversary of the victory in the Soviet Union's Great Patriotic War.Hong said that during that visit, Xi and Putin together sent the strong message that "the history of World War II must not be distorted, the victorious outcomes of World War II must not be denied, and the postwar international order must not be challenged".Regarding Kim's China visit, Hong said that safeguarding, consolidating and developing relations between China and the DPRK is the firm position of the Communist Party of China and the Chinese government.China stands ready to work with the DPRK to continue to enhance exchanges and cooperation and advance socialist development, coordinate closely on promoting the peace and stability of the region and safeguard international fairness and justice, he said.Sept 3 is celebrated in China as Victory Day, marking the signing of the Japanese Instrument of Surrender on Sept 2, 1945.The Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression (1931-45) was the first war to break out and the longest-running campaign in the World Anti-Fascist War. It resulted in over 35 million Chinese military and civilian casualties.With regard to a question about some forces in Japan seeking to remove restrictions on its military, including downplaying its history of aggression and even distorting historical truth to paint themselves as a victim of war, Hong said that such acts pose challenges to the post-World War II international order, to human conscience and to all who love peace."We urge Japan to face history squarely, reflect deeply upon its crimes of aggression, make a clean break with militarism and pursue the right path of peaceful development, good neighborliness and friendship," he said.Former Japanese prime minister Yukio Hatoyama, who said that Japan should reflect on its stance on history, will be among the former statesmen invited to attend the commemorations.A total of 50 international friends who have contributed to the war of resistance against Japanese aggression or their families from 14 countries, including Russia, the US, the United Kingdom, France and Canada, will also attend the commemorations.Wu Zeke, deputy director of the Office of the Leading Group for the Military Parade and a senior officer of the Joint Staff Department of the Central Military Commission, said at the news conference that the preparations for the V-Day military parade are basically complete.The parade will feature a wide range of weapons and equipment, much of which will be unveiled for the first time, Wu said, adding that the event will highlight the Chinese military's recent advances in modernization and enhanced combat readiness.When asked about what message China will send to the world about the military parade, Hong said, "We hold the military parade to show our firm determination to pursue the path of peaceful development, our strong will to defend national sovereignty and territorial integrity, and our great capability to safeguard world peace and tranquility."
In this week’s segment, Steve Okun, CEO of APAC Advisors, joins us to unpack three major geopolitical shifts shaping Asia’s strategic landscape.First, the fallout from the Trump administration’s sweeping 50% tariffs on Indian imports. With up to $48 billion in exports at risk, India is urgently courting new trade partners—including China, Russia, and Brazil—raising questions about whether Washington’s hardline stance is inadvertently nudging New Delhi closer to Beijing.Next to Beijing’s upcoming Victory Day parade, where North Korea’s Kim Jong Un and Russia’s Vladimir Putin will appear publicly alongside Xi Jinping. This rare trilateral show of force signals a deepening axis of defiance against Western pressure, with implications for regional security and diplomatic alignment.Finally, Indonesia’s evolving leadership under President Prabowo Subianto.... with his military background and assertive approach to civilian affairs, what does his presidency mean for Southeast Asia’s largest democracy and its role in the Indo-Pacific.The International News Review, “Saturday Mornings Show” host Glenn van Zutphen and co-host Neil HumphreysSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
On this week's Defense & Aerospace Report Washington Roundtable, Dr. Patrick Cronin of the Hudson Institute think tank, former Pentagon Europe chief Jim Townsend of the Center for a New American Security, former Pentagon comptroller Dr. Dov Zakheim of the Center for Strategic and International Studies join Defense & Aerospace Report Editor Vago Muradian to discuss Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick's statement that the administration would take stakes in defense and aerospace firms; what's next for ending the Ukraine war a week after President Trump hosted key meetings; Russia launched its largest attack in a month with a strike just 50 yards from EU and British Council offices in Kyiv as European governments work to increase support for Ukraine; Washington continues to move toward normalizing relations with with Russia as the Wall Street Journal reports energy deals have been discussed including Exxon reentering a cooperative venture with Rosneft; the administration's drive to fire top intelligence officers specializing in Russia; South Korean President Lee Jae-myung's White House meeting that put shipbuilding at center of US-Korea alliance; China prepares for its 80th anniversary Victory Day celebration with Vladimir Putin, Kim Jong Un and Masoud Pezeshkian; Australia's Deputy Prime Minister Richard Marles visited Washington to schedule a meeting between his boss Anthony Albanese and Trump; Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi visits Tokyo as Washington and New Delhi conduct remote 2+2 talks; GOP senators' Taiwan visit; France, Germany and Britain's call on the UN to implement “snap back” sanctions on Iran for violating the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action; Israel presses ahead with operations in Gaza including two strikes on a hospital that killed five more journalists and 15 others in an attack that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said he regrets and will be investigated.
China has reiterated its commitment to peaceful development and building a community with a shared future for humanity, ahead of Victory Day commemorations (01:06). Chinese officials say the country is fully prepared for hosting the largest-ever gathering of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (14:43). UN officials say more aid is reaching Gaza, but it's not nearly enough to prevent famine in the enclave (24:11).
In this episode of CD Voice, we explore the multi-layered significance of the V-Day events—an event that transcends a simple display of military hardware. We unpack its roots in China's historical narrative of victory in the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, its dual role in honoring war sacrifices and projecting modern military strength, and its power to foster national unity and intergenerational respect. The episode also delves into why September 3rd was chosen as China's official Victory Day and the global messages the parade conveys, from commitments to peace to assertions of China's role as a global power.
Dozens of foreign leaders, senior officials and diplomats will gather in Beijing next week for China's Victory Day events (01:05). The United States is the only UN Security Council member to have not denounced what the other members call a manmade famine in Gaza (25:10). The All-China Federation of Industry and Commerce has released the 2025 list of China's Top 500 Private Enterprises, highlighting increased revenue and net profit (45:03).
China's V-Day military parade, scheduled for Sept 3 in Tian'anmen Square in Beijing, will be the first of its kind since China embarked on a new journey to advance Chinese modernization on all fronts. 中国定于 9 月 3 日在北京天安门广场举行的胜利日阅兵,将是中国踏上全面推进中国式现代化新征程以来的首次此类阅兵。 A total of 45 formations and echelons will be involved in the grand parade. During the march-past, foot formations, battle flag formations, armament columns and flag-guarding aerial echelons will pass through the square in order, while fly-pasts are conducted overhead, according to the People's Liberation Army officials presiding over a news conference on Wednesday. 据解放军官员在周三新闻发布会上介绍,此次盛大阅兵将有 45 个方(梯)队参与。分列式中,徒步方队、战旗方队、装备方队、护旗梯队将依次通过广场,空中梯队将进行飞行表演。 The parade will provide the world with a rare chance to see the achievements of the PLA's modernization endeavors in recent years, which have created a new system of services and arms. The four services are the Army, the Navy, the Air Force, and the Rocket Force, and the four arms are the Aerospace Force, the Cyberspace Force, the Information Support Force and the Joint Logistics Support Force. 此次阅兵将为世界提供一个难得的机会,见证中国人民解放军近年来现代化建设的成果 —— 解放军已构建起全新的军兵种体系,包括陆军、海军、空军、火箭军四个军种,以及航天军、网络空间军、信息支援军、联勤保障军四个兵种。 The Army now accounts for less than 50 percent of the total active-duty personnel; noncombat units have been cut by nearly two-fourths; and the officer corps has been reduced by 30 percent — all to streamline the military and improve its combat capabilities, according to the news conference. 发布会上透露,为精简军队编制、提升作战能力,陆军现役兵力占比已降至 50% 以下,非战斗单位缩减近四分之三,军官队伍精简 30%。 With a high level of informatization and intelligence, the weapons and equipment to be displayed are expected to demonstrate the strong adaptive capability of the Chinese armed forces in response to the transformative sci-tech developments and the evolution of war forms. 受阅武器装备信息化、智能化水平高,有望展现中国军队应对科技变革与战争形态演变的强大适应能力。 The parade will not only showcase a series of new-generation armaments but, more importantly, that under the leadership of the Party, the country and the armed forces have grown stronger and have the ability to win wars. 阅兵不仅将展示一系列新一代武器装备,更重要的是,它将彰显在党的领导下,国家与军队日益强大,具备打赢战争的能力。 In 2014, the country designated Sept 3 as Victory Day of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression (1931-45). The parade will showcase that the great spirit of the Chinese people in that war lives on. 2014 年,中国将 9 月 3 日设立为中国人民抗日战争胜利纪念日。此次阅兵将展现中国人民在抗日战争中铸就的伟大精神代代相传。 The international community should recognize the fact that China made a major contribution to the victory in the World Anti-Fascist War by tying down and fighting the bulk of Japanese forces, and wiping out more than 1.5 million enemy troops. 国际社会应当认识到,中国在世界反法西斯战争胜利中作出了重大贡献 —— 牵制并抗击了大部分日军,歼灭日军超 150 万人。 In 1945, after 14 years of resistance, China achieved victory at a tremendous cost of 35 million military and civilian casualties, accounting for one-third of the total casualties suffered by all countries in World War II. 1945 年,经过 14 年浴血奋战,中国取得抗战胜利,为此付出了 3500 万军民伤亡的巨大代价,占二战各国总伤亡人数的三分之一。 Japan surrendered on Sept 2,1945, signing the Instrument of Surrender to China and other Allied powers. China celebrated the victory the following day. 1945 年 9 月 2 日,日本宣布投降,向中国及其他同盟国签署投降书。次日,中国庆祝抗战胜利。 China's victory in the war 80 years ago was a triumph of justice over evil, light over darkness, and progress over reaction. China was the first country to fight against fascist aggression. With huge national sacrifice, the Chinese people held their ground in the World Anti-Fascist War's main theater in the East. 80 年前的中国抗战胜利,是正义战胜邪恶、光明战胜黑暗、进步战胜反动的胜利。中国是最早抗击法西斯侵略的国家,中国人民以巨大民族牺牲,在世界反法西斯战争东方主战场坚守到底。 While demonstrating the Chinese military's strong ability to safeguard national sovereignty, security, and development interests, the parade is also a signal that the country upholds peace and will firmly defend international fairness and justice. 此次阅兵在展现中国军队捍卫国家主权、安全、发展利益强大能力的同时,也向世界传递出中国秉持和平理念、坚决捍卫国际公平正义的信号。 With the rise of the hegemony and unilateralism of some countries that seek to define the world order according to their will, the international community should stand united to jointly defend the postwar international order. 当前,部分国家霸权主义、单边主义抬头,企图按自身意志定义世界秩序,国际社会应团结起来,共同维护战后国际秩序。 A country committed to peace and stability, China will work together with peace-loving countries and people across the world to uphold and advocate the correct historical view of World War II, resolutely safeguard the postwar order, firmly defend international fairness and justice, staunchly oppose all forms of hegemonism and power politics, and jointly promote the building of a community with a shared future for humanity. 中国始终是致力于和平与稳定的国家,将与世界上所有爱好和平的国家和人民一道,坚持和弘扬正确的二战历史观,坚决维护战后秩序,坚定捍卫国际公平正义,坚决反对一切形式的霸权主义和强权政治,共同推动构建人类命运共同体。

Edition No197 | 22-07-2025 - Putin is tightening the digital noose in Russia, as the crackdown on the internet intensifies. We explore What It Signals in this episode. The Kremlin isn't just at war with Ukraine — it's at war with its own population, and the internet itself. Connectivity blackouts are plaguing regions of Russia, and now spyware is being installed on every internet capable device. The Victory Day disconnections of internet coverage were just a foretaste of the censorship and control that is rapidly approaching. The edges are emerging of what promises to be a terrifying blueprint for new a “digital gulag.” But this isn't just about censorship. It's about what Russia might be preparing for next — why the regime has such a sense of urgency to gain control of the Russian internet, and what that means for Ukraine and for the rest of us.----------DESCRIPTION:Putin's Digital Gulag: Why Russia is Shutting Down its InternetIn this episode of Silicon Bites, we delve into Vladimir Putin's aggressive efforts to control and restrict internet access in Russia. We explore the Kremlin's increasing crackdown on digital freedom and what it means for Russia's population, the ongoing conflict with Ukraine, and potential geopolitical ramifications. Key points include the intensification of censorship, the spread of spyware on consumer devices, and the Kremlin's urgency to isolate the Russian internet by autumn 2025. We also discuss possible reasons behind this rapid digital suppression including further mobilization, preparing for war with NATO, economic collapse, or autocratic whims. Discover how these unprecedented moves might signify a strategy to escalate the war or manage looming internal and external crises.----------SUPPORT THE CHANNEL:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtain----------CHAPTERS:00:00 Introduction: Putin's Attempt to Break the Internet00:30 The Digital Noose Tightens01:26 The Big Digital Squeeze03:00 Technical Details of the Crackdown04:24 Spyware and the Digital Gulag05:52 Hypotheses Behind the Crackdown10:10 The Autumn Trap: Why Now?11:39 Conclusion: The Global Implications----------SOURCES: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cx3hF3Yk2rYhttps://jamestown.org/program/russia-ramps-up-internet-censorship/https://www.businessinsider.com/russia-cut-internet-access-victory-day-ukraine-drone-strikes-putin-2025-5https://www.thetimes.com/world/russia-ukraine-war/article/putin-moscow-whatsapp-ban-plan-max-app-launch-b789tt6tshttps://united24media.com/latest-news/putins-new-orders-could-reshape-russian-internet-heres-whats-next-10019https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/russia-kremlin-instagram-atms-ukraine-b2791385.htmlhttps://meduza.io/en/feature/2025/07/07/mapping-russia-s-internet-blackoutshttps://www.themoscowtimes.com/2025/07/01/russia-to-disconnect-foreigners-who-have-not-submitted-biometric-data-from-mobile-internet-a89635https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2025/07/17/russia-internet-censorship/https://www.kyivpost.com/post/56473https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-07-03/russian-internet-outages-soar-as-kremlin-boosts-wartime-controls----------TRUSTED CHARITIES ON THE GROUND:Save Ukrainehttps://www.saveukraineua.org/Superhumans - Hospital for war traumashttps://superhumans.com/en/UNBROKEN - Treatment.

South Korea and China have a complex relationship characterized by economic interdependence, strategic competition, and regional security concerns. Navigating this delicate balance has been a defining challenge for every South Korean president. Newly elected President Lee Jae Myung has assumed power at a time of increasing US-China strategic competition as well as uncertain global supply chains and growing threat from North Korea. Could this new administration mark a shift in Seoul's approach to Beijing? Or will President Lee maintain strategies similar to that of President Yoon?To discuss ROK-China relations, and President Lee's approach to this intricate issue, we are joined on the podcast today by Dr. Ramon Pacheco-Pardo. He is a professor of international relations at King's College London and the KF-VUB Korea Chair at the Center for Security, Diplomacy and Strategy in the Brussels School of Governance. He is also an adjunct fellow with the Korea Chair at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, and the author of several books on the domestic affairs and foreign policy of South and North Korea.

Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News. Tai-Ex opening The Tai-Ex opened up 132-points this morning from yesterday's close, at 22,968 on turnover of $5.5-billion N-T. Japan's defense ministry highlights Chinese military drills around Taiwan Japanese Defense Minister Gen Nakatani highlighted Chinese drills around Taiwan yesterday in the defense white paper. His ministry emphasized China's intensification of the drills surrounding Taiwan since last year, and they accuse Beijing of trying to isolate the DPP government. The document points out that China has been actively increasing its military presence around Taiwan in recent years. The report noted Beijing's large-scale drills after President Lai Ching Te's inauguration in May of last year, as well as those around National Day on October 10th. Beijing aims to criticize the Lai administration and deter the US from deepening security ties with Taiwan, according to the report. The PRC further aims to divide Taiwanese society and isolate the Lai government by using a dual strategy of hardline (強硬的) military action in addition to pushing to strengthen economic ties with Taiwan. The report says that the exercises around Taiwan share three main characteristics, including combat training, propaganda orientation, and normalization. Notably, the report emphasizes that the exercises serve as a political messaging tool for the CCP, who broadcast footage of the drills widely. Nakatani says, Japan will reinforce its defense capabilities and respond calmly. (AH-CNA) EU Seeking Action from Israel on Aid to Gaza The European Union is seeking updates and more action from Israel on implementing a new deal to deliver humanitarian aid to Gaza. The deal aims to provide food and fuel to Gaza's 2.3 million residents after more than 21 months of war. EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas said Tuesday there was a need for effective implementation (執行) and called for a ceasefire. Ministers meeting in Brussels will also discuss Iran's nuclear program, tensions in Georgia and Moldova and new sanctions on Russia. Supreme Court paves way for Department of Education dismantling The US Supreme Court has paved the way for the dismantling of the Department of Education - saying the Trump administration can move ahead with mass layoffs. A lower court had blocked the move over concerns that gutting (摧毀內部) the agency would undermine its mission - which is dictated by Congress. Toni Waterman has more. France PM Proposes Cutting Two Public Holidays France's prime minister has proposed cutting two public holidays to save money in next year's budget. He suggested on Tuesday to remove Easter Monday and Victory Day which marks the Allied victory over the Nazis. The prime minister argued that this would boost tax revenues from increased economic activity. The proposal is part of a broader plan to save $51.3 billion US dollars and reduce France's debt and deficit. President Emmanuel Macron tasked the prime minister with balancing these cuts while increasing defense spending. The plan faces opposition from unions and political rivals (競爭對手). The government has no parliamentary majority and must secure support to pass the budget this fall. That leaves its fate uncertain. That was the I.C.R.T.

In this week's episode, the Korea Pro team breaks down Beijing's formal invitation for President Lee Jae-myung to attend China's Sept. 3 Victory Day military parade — a move that echoes Park Geun-hye's 2015 attendance but lands in a far more polarized geopolitical climate. The team discusses how Lee is likely to approach the decision and what's at stake for Seoul's positioning between Washington and Beijing. The team also reflects on Lee's first presidential press conference — from its tone and theatrical “lucky draw” format to the substance of his responses on foreign policy, corporate reform and the anti-discrimination law. The episode then shifts to South Korea's record-breaking arms deal with Poland. The July 2 agreement will send 180 K2 Black Panther tanks abroad in a deal reportedly worth over $6 billion — nearly double the 2022 package. Unlike the first shipment, this deal includes extensive tech transfer and local assembly, cementing South Korea's role in Poland's rearmament push. Looking ahead, the trio preview next week's trilateral defense chiefs' meeting in Seoul, ongoing trade talks in Washington and deepening special probes targeting former President Yoon Suk-yeol's inner circle, including a travel ban on the former first lady. About the podcast: The Korea Pro Podcast is a weekly 15-minute conversation hosted by Korea Risk Group Executive Director Jeongmin Kim, Editor John Lee and correspondent Joon Ha Park, diving deep into the most pressing stories shaping South Korea — and dissecting the most complicated ones for professionals monitoring ROK politics, diplomacy, culture, society and technology.

Day 1,171.Today, as Vladimir Putin hosts world leaders in Moscow for his Victory Day Parade, we break down what was really on display: both in military hardware and political messaging. How much of the spectacle honored World War II, and how much signaled the rise of a militarised Russia? Then, we speak with a former Ukrainian MP and leader of the Sky Shield initiative about proposals for Kyiv's allies to shoot down enemy missiles, and report on the latest resistance efforts in occupied territories.Contributors:Francis Dearnley (Executive Editor for Audio). @FrancisDearnley on X.Dominic Nicholls (Associate Editor of Defence). @DomNicholls on X.Oksana Pyzik (Associate Professor Pharm Prac & Policy at UCL). @OksanaPyzikUCL on X.With thanks to Lesia Orobets (former Member of Parliament of Ukraine). @LesyaOrobets on X and Illia Riepin.Content Referenced:SIGN UP TO THE NEW ‘UKRAINE: THE LATEST' WEEKLY NEWSLETTER:https://secure.telegraph.co.uk/customer/secure/newsletter/ukraine/ Each week, Dom Nicholls and Francis Dearnley answer your questions, provide recommended reading, and give exclusive analysis and behind-the-scenes insights – plus maps of the frontlines and diagrams of weapons to complement our daily reporting.

We made it, ya'll. One hundred days of President Donald Trump's second term down. Only 1,362 to go…. not that we're counting (we're definitely counting). While the White House is pushing the narrative that Trump's early days have been an unmitigated success, the American public clearly feels otherwise. A bunch of new polls show the president's approval rating hovering around 40 percent. He's also underwater on every issue respondents were asked about, from the economy to immigration. Jon Favreau, co-host of Pod Save America and founder of Crooked Media, stops by to help make sense of the 100-day wreckage and where we go from here.And in headlines: Spain and Portugal entered a second Dark Age amid a massive power outage, Virginia Democratic Rep. Gerry Connolly announced his retirement, and Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered a unilateral temporary ceasefire in May in honor of the Russian holiday Victory Day.Show Notes:Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday
