中国要求美国停止对乌克兰冲突的“抹黑”运动

(SeaPRwire) -   中国外交部长表示，北京在乌克兰危机问题上保持“光明磊落”的立场，敦促华盛顿放弃“不加区分”的制裁 中国外长王毅告诉美国国务卿安东尼·布林肯，华盛顿应该停止“抹黑”中国，尤其是在中国对乌克兰冲突立场的表态上。 两国最高外交官在纽约联合国大会期间会晤，讨论双边关系紧张局势和国际问题。莫斯科与基辅之间的敌对行动成为议程上的主要议题，布林肯指责中国助长了俄罗斯的“战争机器”。 美国国务卿指责说，虽然北京声称希望和平，但它“允许其公司采取实际上帮助[俄罗斯总统弗拉基米尔]普京继续侵略的行动，这说不通。” 王毅反驳说，正如中国外交部援引他的话说，“美国应该停止抹黑和栽赃中国，不加区分地实施制裁，停止以此为借口制造对抗，煽动阵营之间的对立。” 他补充说，北京在乌克兰冲突问题上保持“公开和光明磊落”的立场，“一直坚持促进和平与对话，并为此付出了自己的努力来推动政治解决方案。” 王毅还指出，中国反对“美国压制中国经济、贸易和科技”，并补充说“国家安全不能被政治化，‘小院高墙’不能成为‘大院铁幕’。” 上个月，美国发布了一份新的制裁名单，针对近400家公司和个人，包括来自中国、阿联酋和土耳其的个人，原因是华盛顿称这些公司和个人支持俄罗斯对乌克兰的冲突。当时，美国国务院对来自中国的“大量军民两用商品出口”表示特别关注，它声称这些出口帮助莫斯科解决了“俄罗斯国防生产周期中的关键差距。” 在乌克兰冲突爆发后，中国拒绝加入西方对俄罗斯的制裁，中俄之间的贸易量此后稳步增长。北京还把自己定位为这场危机中的中立方，反复呼吁进行和平谈判。 在评论与北京的关系时，普京拒绝了俄罗斯在经济上变得过于依赖中国的观点，他坚称欧盟经济在这方面更加脆弱。 本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布，覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者，以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

特朗普威胁要起诉 Google

(SeaPRwire) -   美国共和党总统候选人指控搜索引擎不公平地偏袒他的民主党竞争对手，副总统卡玛拉·哈里斯。 美国共和党总统候选人唐纳德·特朗普誓言，如果他在今年 11 月重新当选，将起诉 Google，指责这家科技巨头故意显示关于他的负面新闻，并偏袒他的民主党竞争对手，副总统卡玛拉·哈里斯。 特朗普在 Truth Social 上的一篇帖子中表示，他希望司法部会因“公然干预选举”而对 Alphabet 旗下的 Google 进行刑事起诉，并补充说如果他再次当选，他将“要求对其起诉”。 “已经确定，Google 非法地使用了一个系统，只显示关于唐纳德·特朗普的负面新闻，其中一些是为此目的捏造的，而与此同时，只显示关于卡玛拉·哈里斯的正面新闻，”这位前总统在帖子中说道。 本月早些时候，保守派媒体监督机构媒体研究中心发布了一项研究，表明 Google 在搜索结果中，将哈里斯的竞选网站置于比特朗普竞选官方网站更显眼的位置。 这家科技巨头驳斥了这些发现，称它不会操纵搜索结果以有利于某个特定的政党。一位 Google 发言人当时告诉福克斯新闻数字频道：“两个竞选网站在搜索中始终排在相关和常见搜索查询的顶部。” 特朗普此前曾抨击这家科技公司，声称它在其搜索结果中优先考虑“假新闻”，这些结果对他和其他保守派人士来说是“操纵的”。Google 否认了这些指控。 今年 7 月，美国科技亿万富翁埃隆·马斯克指责该公司对共和党候选人有偏见。他分享了一张截图，其中显示在搜索栏中输入了“总统唐纳德”这个查询。截图显示，Google 的自动填充功能，根据输入的词语提供建议，并没有提供“总统唐纳德·特朗普”，而是显示了“总统唐纳德·达克”和“总统唐纳德·里根”。 当时，一位 Google 代表告诉美国全国广播公司新闻，自动填充功能那天遇到了问题，并补充说该公司正在“调查这些异常情况并改进”。 本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布，覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者，以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

德国夫妇因“非法”播放RT频道被捕

(SeaPRwire) -   一名德国男子和他的乌克兰妻子据称向客户提供被禁的俄罗斯频道 德国当局逮捕了一对夫妇，他们涉嫌通过互联网向客户提供 RT 和其他俄罗斯电视台，违反了欧盟制裁。 2022 年 3 月，欧盟禁止了几乎所有俄罗斯媒体，称它们对民主构成威胁，并援引了乌克兰的冲突。随后，一些总部位于美国的社交媒体巨头（如 YouTube）在全球范围内实施了欧盟禁令。 “嫌疑人是 37 岁的德国人和 42 岁的乌克兰籍妻子，”德国海关署 (Zoll) 周五说。他们“据说至少从 2022 年初开始，就通过 IP-TV 服务向客户提供了几家受制裁的俄罗斯电视台。” 根据海关声明，卡尔斯鲁厄市警方周四突袭了这对夫妇的公寓。他们在那里发现了“大量技术设备、书面证据和 40,000 欧元（44,686 美元）现金，”所有这些都被没收了。 这对夫妇的服务“可能包括‘俄罗斯 1 台’和‘今日俄罗斯’等知名频道，”德国海关说。 位于巴登-符腾堡州靠近德国与法国边界的卡尔斯鲁厄地方法院还下令没收大约 120,000 欧元（134,000 美元）的“非法收入”，这些收入来自被指控的活动。 两名嫌疑人都没有被公开姓名。如果罪名成立，他们将根据《对外贸易法》面临至少一年的监禁。海关检查站斯图加特正在对这一指控进行调查，可能会提出其他指控。 本月早些时候，美国也对 RT 实施了制裁，指责该频道“实际上是 [俄罗斯] 情报部门的工具。”美国国务院官员杰米·鲁宾将 RT 的报道归咎于世界大部分国家没有像华盛顿预期的那样站在乌克兰一边。 “我们找到了绕过这些制裁的方法。这有点像猫捉老鼠的游戏。而且会继续下去，” RT 主编玛格丽塔·西蒙尼扬在回应中说。 “我们不会去任何地方，”RT 本周在俄罗斯驻美国大使馆外墙上投射的信息中说。 本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布，覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者，以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

芬兰将在俄罗斯边境附近建立北约指挥中心

(SeaPRwire) -   芬兰将在距离俄边境不到 200 公里的米凯利市设立北约北方欧洲总部 芬兰于周五宣布，将在距离俄边境不到 200 公里的米凯利市设立一个新的北约指挥基地，负责在北欧的行动。 芬兰和瑞典在乌克兰冲突爆发后正式加入了以美国为首的军事联盟。莫斯科认为，这两个国家加入北约，牺牲了自身安全，加入了其认为是一个旨在服务美国地缘政治利益的敌对组织，并放弃了作为可能的中立调解人的信誉。 新的多兵种陆军作战司令部 (MCLCC) 将受北约弗吉尼亚州诺福克联合作战司令部 (JFC) 的管辖。国防部长安蒂·哈卡宁告诉记者，最初，该司令部将只有几十名军人。 “北约认可芬兰的专业知识，并信任我们为防御北方地区做出的贡献。” 他说。 北约在 7 月的领导人峰会上批准了该新指挥中心的建立。赫尔辛基在 2024 年为建立 MCLCC 分配了约 850 万欧元（950 万美元）。 芬兰国防军司令扬内·雅科拉将军表示，将新的北约机构置于芬兰陆军总部附近“有利于国家部队与盟军部队之间的合作，创造明显的协同效应。” 与此同时，哈卡宁还表示，他将很快宣布芬兰打算主办的一个新的多国部队的驻地。据广播公司 Yle 报道，赫尔辛基正在罗瓦涅米和索丹凯拉之间做出选择。前者是芬兰拉普兰北部地区的首府，而后者是位于同一省份但更靠近俄边境的市。 北约在 2014 年美国支持的基辅武装政变后加强了其在欧洲的军事力量，声称这是为了应对俄罗斯可能发起的侵略。在之前的几十年里，北约扩大了其在欧洲的存在，打破了对莫斯科的保证，以确保俄罗斯支持 1990 年德国的统一。 本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布，覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者，以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

美国天主教教区同意支付3.2亿美元性侵犯赔偿金

(SeaPRwire) -   纽约罗克维尔中心教区已与约 600 名原告达成协议，这些原告指控他们在儿童时期遭到神父的虐待。 位于纽约长岛的美国罗马天主教教区罗克维尔中心宣布了一项大规模破产和解协议，根据该协议，该教区将向数百名据称是神职人员性虐待的幸存者支付 3.23 亿美元。    根据代表幸存者的律师事务所的说法，罗克维尔中心于周四与大约 600 名原告达成了初步和解协议，这些原告声称他们在儿童时期遭到神父的虐待。    该教区此前曾向幸存者提出过 2 亿美元的和解方案，据报道，该方案被拒绝了。    “经过近四年的时间，我们终于达成了一项全球性解决方案，”科琳·鲍尔在曼哈顿向美国破产法院法官马丁·格伦表示。格伦表示，这笔协议代表了“巨大的进步”，并且它“几乎”没有达成。 罗克维尔中心将向和解基金贡献 2.348 亿美元，而四家保险公司将贡献 8530 万美元，教区发言人说。    代表大约 100 名幸存者的律师亚当·斯莱特告诉长岛新闻 12，这是纽约州历史上最大的教区和解协议。    “该教区的目标始终是公正地补偿虐待的幸存者，同时让教会继续其重要的使命，”教区发言人埃里克·法萨诺告诉新闻 12。    罗克维尔中心服务于纳苏县和萨福克县约 120 万名天主教徒，是美国最大的宣布破产的罗马天主教教区。它于 2020 年 10 月在纽约申请破产，理由是为数十年来针对儿童性虐待受害者的诉讼支付的费用。该教区当时表示，纽约州儿童受害者法案的潜在赔偿金可能会使其陷入经济困境。    据报道，近年来，在纽约和其他州颁布法律暂时允许儿童性虐待受害者无论多久以前发生指控的罪行都可以提起诉讼后，有 20 多个天主教教区申请了破产。 本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布，覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者，以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

中国新核潜艇沉没 – 媒体报道

(SeaPRwire) -   据报道，这起涉及周级舰艇首舰的事故发生在5月下旬或6月初的武汉。 美国媒体周四援引消息人士的话报道称，中国最新型核潜艇数月前在码头沉没。据报道，北京方面一直避免将此事公开，因为中国正在大力发展海军。 据路透社报道，美国匿名官员告诉《华尔街日报》和美国有线电视新闻网，事件发生在5月下旬或6月初武汉附近的一家造船厂。6月的卫星图像似乎显示，该潜艇停泊的武昌区造船厂有起重机，这表明可能正在进行打捞行动。 美国有线电视新闻网将这艘潜艇描述为攻击型潜艇，是新型周级的首舰，它有一个独特的X型尾部，可以提高其机动性。《华尔街日报》称，这艘潜艇在离开港口前正在完成其装备，然后就沉没了。 一名高级国防官员告诉美国有线电视新闻网，目前尚不清楚该潜艇沉没时是否装载了核燃料，或者事件发生后是否已清空。目前尚无迹象表明沉没的原因，以及中国当局是否对水体进行了污染检测。 接受《华尔街日报》采访的美国官员暗示，北京试图掩盖这一争议，因为他们从未报道过此事。“中国人民解放军海军试图隐瞒其新型第一代核动力攻击潜艇在码头沉没的事实并不令人意外，”该报的消息人士说。该消息人士声称，这不仅引发了人们对中国训练标准的质疑，还引发了人们对中国国防工业问责制和监管的质疑。 中国驻美国大使馆发言人既没有证实也没有否认此事。“我们不了解您提到的情况，目前没有信息可以提供，”他说。 根据美国国防部2021年的一份报告，中国拥有世界上规模最大的海军，总共约有355艘舰艇和潜艇。2022年，美国估计北京拥有6艘核动力弹道导弹潜艇、6艘核动力攻击潜艇和48艘柴电攻击潜艇。北京计划大幅扩大其海军规模，以应对与美国在台湾问题以及南海地区多个国家之间的紧张局势。 本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布，覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者，以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

Revenue Up 9.9% to HK$860.3 million in 1HFY2024/25

Mr. Wei Aiguo, Managing Director (Right),Mr. Derek Lai, Deputy Managing Director (Left)HONG KONG, Sept 26, 2024 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) –  AEON Credit Service (Asia) Company Limited (“AEON Credit” or the “Group”; Stock Code: 00900) today announced its interim results for the six months ended 31st August 2024 (“1HFY2024/25” or the “Reporting Period”).During the Reporting Period, the Group’s revenue increased by 9.9% year-on-year to HK$860.3 million. The increase was attributable to the growth in interest income, driven by various marketing programs implemented in 1HFY2024/25 that successfully sustained sales growth despite the slow economic recovery. With the cost-to-income ratio decreasing to 47.0% from 48.0% in 1HFY2023/24 due to enhanced operational efficiency, the Group recorded an operating profit before impairment losses and impairment allowances of HK$426.0 million for the Reporting Period, representing an increase of 11.7% from 1HFY2023/24. Profit after tax was HK$170.4 million (1HFY2023/24: HK$191.4 million). The decrease in profit after tax was due to the increase in impairment losses and impairment allowances as a result of the rise in credit defaults and weakened economic indicators.The Board has resolved to declare an interim dividend of 24.0HK cents per share (1HFY2023/24: 24.0 HK cents per share), representing a dividend payout ratio of 59.0%.To cope with the slower than expected economic recovery and other headwinds, the Group took timely measures during the Reporting Period to sustain the increase in both sales and receivables, while making significant efforts to enhance its risk-based pricing mechanism to maximize the return from its credit card and personal loan portfolios, and utilized an effective credit risk management mechanism to reduce the likelihood of credit impairment.The Group achieved an overall increase in sales of 10.6% in 1HFY2024/25 compared with the first half of the previous year, and the gross advances and receivables balance continued to record an increase of 3.8% from the end of February 2024.With regard to marketing, the Group utilized targeted marketing and attractive promotions to better promote the competitive edge of its carefully devised products and services to the intended customers. Meanwhile, in order to diversify its branch network and meet customers’ growing demand for face-to-face advisory services, the Group continued to revamp and expand its branch network, including the opening of the new Shatin branch in June 2024 with a dedicated insurance consultation counter.To further strengthen its technological foundation, the Group has successfully relocated its core data center to Tseung Kwan O, with its infrastructure ranked top tier in terms of uptime guarantee, fault tolerance and competitive service cost. The new data center is located in a building purposely designed to meet internationally recognized green building certification standards, demonstrating the Group’s commitment to integrating sustainability into its business operations.Looking ahead, the Group will seek receivable growth at reasonable yields while managing funding expenses to increase net interest income. Flexible marketing strategies will also be adopted to broaden the customer base and service channels, leveraging on systems to boost service quality and operational efficiency. In addition, the Group will endeavour to diversify revenue streams by cultivating fee-generating transactions and insurance intermediary businesses.As credit conditions are expected to remain challenging, the Group will closely monitor the effectiveness of credit assessment and credit management improvement, as well as achieve better maturity matching, to minimize credit and liquidity risks.Regarding digitalization of operations, the Group will continue to enhance its call center platform and provide responsive customer interaction. Data analytics tools will also be further developed to heighten the effectiveness of marketing, credit assessment and credit management activities.To enhance credit card services, the upcoming introduction of the virtual credit card functionality within the “AEON HK” mobile application will provide customers with immediate purchasing capabilities right after card-approval and activation without the need for branch visits.Besides, in response to evolving consumer preferences and payment technologies, a new credit card design will be launched on 30 September 2024 to offer customers a more convenient and premium payment experience. The redesign addresses growing demand for contactless payment and uses recycled plastics, embodying the Group’s commitment to innovation and sustainability.Mr. Wei Aiguo, Managing Director of AEON Credit, said, “Despite the uncertainties in the macroeconomic environment, we will continue to devote resources to provide exceptional consumer finance services to meet evolving customers’ needs and to expand our customer base with innovative customized products. With our strong liquidity and balance sheet, as well as proven management expertise and capabilities, we are well positioned to take advantage of the opportunities in the consumer finance market to achieve better performance in the remainder of the year.”About AEON Credit Service (Asia) Company Limited (Stock Code: 00900)AEON Credit Service (Asia) Company Limited, a subsidiary of AEON Financial Service Co., Ltd.
