There are 3 pieces of international news, the US Embassy deleted the information in the Ukrainian biological laboratory; Japanese media reports that the polls show that China's favorability for Japan has dropped sharply; Scholz announced a sharp increase in defense spending, and foreign media worried that Germany may "bid farewell to post-war pacifism"
Wave after wave of unevenness has arisen, and in the context of the continuous intensification of the Conflict between Russia and Ukraine, the international situation has also begun to show more chaotic developments. At present, there are three pieces of news coming from the international community that can make us more deeply aware of the chaos of the current international situation.
According to foreign media reports, after Russia launched a special military operation against Ukraine, the US Embassy in Ukraine removed all the relevant documents on its official website about the opening of biological laboratories in Kiev and Odessa in Ukraine. Some Russian experts said on this matter that these biological laboratories in the United States in Ukraine may pose a major threat to Russia, and the biological weapons they develop are likely to fall into the hands of nationalists.
In fact, the United States has about 400 Pentagon-controlled biological laboratories worldwide, including 15 in Ukraine. The United States announced the construction of two new biological laboratories in Kiev and Odessa, Ukraine, in 2021, and plans to officially launch these two biological laboratories in the spring of 2022.
Previously, Russian President Putin had warned the United States of the danger of developing biological weapons at the Russian border, so some Russian political analysts said that the special military operation launched by Russia against Ukraine, on the one hand, Ukraine may pose a nuclear threat to Russia, on the other hand, is to eliminate the biological threat that Ukraine may pose in military operations.
Russian media reported that the two biological laboratories in Ukraine are used by the United States to study biological weapons and dangerous viruses, but Robert Pope, the project leader of the U.S. Biological Synergy Program, said that the laboratory is mainly used for peaceful scientific research and disease surveillance, not biological and chemical weapons research and development facilities.
But Pope's argument is clearly not convincing, and if U.S. research in the lab is indeed peaceful scientific research, as Pop says, then there is no need for the U.S. Embassy to delete lab-related documents on its website. And the so-called biological laboratories in the United States have long been infamous, and in the current situation of the global pandemic of the new crown epidemic, the repeated refusal of the United States to open the Fort Detrick laboratory has made the outside world full of doubts about the so-called biological laboratories in the United States.
Second, Japanese media reported that a poll of Opinion Polls against China, the United States, the United Kingdom, France, South Korea and Thailand previously released by the Japan Press and Communications Investigation Association showed that China's favorability for Japan had dropped significantly.
Japanese media reported that the poll targeted 1,000 people participated in the poll, but the survey results showed that The Chinese respondents' favorability for Japan was only 26.3%, down 13.4% from the previous survey results, and the lowest favorability for Japan among the six survey countries. The report said that the reason for this result is that on the one hand, the epidemic has hindered tourism exchanges between China and Japan, and on the other hand, it is because Japanese politicians have frequently hyped up the Taiwan issue in recent times.
The Taiwan issue has always been the most sensitive part of the Chinese people's minds, but Japanese politicians have frequently made provocative remarks on the Taiwan issue in recent times, which will inevitably affect the Chinese people's good feelings for Japan. Although the interaction between China and Japan was relatively friendly at the Winter Olympics, the Japanese government's China policy that has always been adopted has deeply resented the Chinese people, so the friendly relations between China and Japan still depend on how the Japanese government takes the helm.
The third news, German Chancellor Scholz announced on the 27th local time that it will significantly increase Germany's defense expenditure. Scholz said that in the future, Germany will spend more than 2% of its gross domestic product on defense construction every year, and add 100 billion euros to the defense budget this year to build a strong, advanced, and protecting army.
Germany's new defense policy immediately aroused a high degree of repercussions from the outside world. Foreign media have said that Germany's move was affected by the outbreak of the Russo-Ukrainian War, which means that Germany will break the pacifist tradition that has been maintained after World War II and gradually transform into a "normal military state". It is foreseeable that the change in Germany will cause a new round of changes in the situation in Europe, and even further affect the development and change of the international situation. #US ##Russia##US Embassy removes information on the biology laboratory in Ukraine ##Japan##德国宣布大幅增加国防开支 #
