伊朗周五免除了数百枚弹道导弹,用于反击以色列的空袭,这些一整夜的侵袭。这项举措由总理 Benjamin 下的指令。伊朗最高上校死亡,据说关键军事要塞都被大面积损坏。伊朗的国有新闻社发布消息,在以色列袭击中,有 70 人死亡,100 多人受伤。
最近的在伊斯兰共和国和美国之间的间接核对话开始有了进展,特朗普强调要废弃之前有奥巴马牵头的和伊朗的核条约,尽管以色列持续攻击,这件事敦促了伊朗接受和美国方面新的交易。 —— David E. Rovella
以色列开启和伊朗的对话,最紧急需要解答的疑问由彭博意见的记者 Marc Champion 写到。内容是,这项谈话是否能达到以色列宣称的目标?以至于使得伊朗永久地无法获得核武器。可能以下情况是更合理的,即以色列能做的不过是推迟伊朗的核计划至几年之后。Champion 写到,如果这件事情发生的话,就无法证实某些流血事件,以及一旦战争开启之后无法预知的后果。因为能够达到的最好效果不过是“战争会取代外交”。为什么现在采取行动?记者问到。答案或取决于伊朗,即该国的军事条件,以及未来可能需要处理的、和 Netanyahu 政治、法律关系。
美国联邦法院维持裁决使得该案子被送回了美国,联邦国防军对仍然在洛杉矶街上徘徊,展示了市内的、跨国的(机构)都在准备这周末的活动。三制的法院专家小组,包括两名由特朗普选出的法官,喊停了严厉的联邦法庭的方式,即管理专门针对类似的非机构以及非法行为的攻击。
但是,随着这种管理暂停,特朗普升级了危机程度。即美国海军周五到达美国第二大城市,同时,共和党地区的州,激活了自己的国防军队,面对未来的示威游行。抗议者谴责特朗普,其作为 ,又专制、对国家又有威胁的国防军队,这些军队与其军队对立,以及反对国内法律实施,抗议潜在的、非法的方式,遣送了没有记录的移民。所谓没有记录与相关媒体有关系。
欧洲有一项新的计划,强制普京停止其与乌克兰的战争,这样俄罗斯原油价格上限会降低,降至 45 美刀每桶,原来价格是 60 美刀每桶,作为压榨主要融资的一个方式。这些融资是为了克林米宫其邻居而产生的。但是,有一件事情在欧洲诸国和普京更紧张的预算之间,即美国。
特朗普常规地表扬普京,最近还说了些战争方面模棱两可的话。相较于一场冰球比赛,特朗普拒绝了计划。欧盟和英国将会探索降低价格上限,可以不用美国参与。大多数俄罗斯原油,被运送到临近的欧洲水域,如果这件事情单一看的话,会有些问题。但是一项涉及所有 G7 国的法案,可能会更加有效,因其依赖于美国政策实施。

Iran fired hundreds of ballistic missiles on Friday in retaliation for Israel’s airstrikes. Those overnight raids, ordered by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, killed top Iranian generals and are said to have badly damaged key military infrastructure. Iran’s state-controlled news agency said some 70 people were killed by the Israeli strikes, and hundreds more injured.
The latest escalation came amid indirect nuclear talks between the Islamic Republic and the US. President Donald Trump, who made a point of discarding an earlier nuclear accord with Iran sealed by President Barack Obama, urged Iran to accept a new deal with Washington despite the Israeli attacks. —David E. Rovella
The immediate question to answer about the war that Israel has started with Iran, Marc Champion writes in Bloomberg Opinion, is can this achieve Israel’s stated goal of ensuring, once and for all, that Iran never gets a nuclear weapon? It’s more likely that Israel can do no more than delay Iran’s nuclear program by a few years. And if that’s the case, Champion writes, it becomes impossible to justify the certain bloodshed and unknowable consequences of starting the war, because it would at best gain no more than the diplomacy it displaced. So why now, Champion asks? The answer may have just as much to do with Iran’s current military condition as it does with Netanyahu’s political and legal future.
With federalized National Guard troops still on the streets of Los Angeles after the US Court of Appeals stayed a ruling giving them back to the state, demonstrations there and in cities across the country are scheduled for this weekend. The three-judge panel, which included two judges selected by Trump, put on hold a scathing federal court ruling assailing the administration for likely unconstitutional and illegal actions.
But with the ruling on hold, Trump escalated the crisis: US Marines arrived on Friday in America’s second-largest city. Republican-controlled states meanwhile activated their own National Guard troops to confront demonstrators in the coming days. Protestors decry Trump as an authoritarian and threat to the country, oppose his militarization of civilian law enforcement and potentially illegal efforts to deport undocumented immigrants. So-called No Kings protests are reportedly planned for almost 2,000 locations around the country, according to the Associated Press.
Europe has a new plan to force Vladimir Putin to end his devastating war on Ukraine: lower the price cap on Russian oil sales to $45 per barrel from the current $60 as a way of squeezing the main source of funding for the Kremlin’s full-scale invasion of its neighbor. But there’s one thing standing between European nations and a tightening of the screws on Putin: America.
Trump, who has regularly praised Putin and recently expressed ambivalence about the war, comparing it to a hockey game, has refused to agree to the plan. The European Union and UK could explore lowering the cap without the US. Most of Russia’s oil is transported near European waters so going it alone might have some effect. But an accord involving all G-7 nations would be more effective as it would be able to rely on US enforcement.
