My ambassador once again voiced: Do Swedish laws and governments not respect human rights?

  CCTV News:according toAccording to the website of the Embassy of China in Sweden,On September 17th, China’s ambassador to Sweden, Gui Congyou, accepted an exclusive interview with Larcon, a reporter from Swedish Express, at the embassy about the Swedish police’s rough treatment of China tourists. The full text is as follows:

  Ambassador Gui said, I accepted an interview with your colleagues in Evening News yesterday, and I have said all I need to say. Since you also offered to interview me, I can only agree. First of all, I want to reveal a new situation to you. At noon today, the head of the police station where three China tourists were rudely treated by the Swedish police met my colleague. He confirmed to my colleagues that the three China tourists did not violate Swedish laws. At the same time, he also said that the Swedish police did not violate Swedish law. We are very puzzled by this statement by the Swedish police. First, the three China tourists were rudely treated by the Swedish police, and their life safety and dignity were threatened and hurt. Don’t Swedish laws respect human rights and human dignity? The police are law enforcers and act on behalf of the government. Does the Swedish government also have no respect for human rights and dignity? Second, if foreign police treat Swedish tourists in the same way, what kind of reaction will the Swedish government make? How will you react? Will the Swedish government agree and recognize it? Will the Swedish people agree and recognize it? Thirdly, as far as we know, in November 2011, a similar incident occurred in the southern Swedish city of Bros. At that time, the victim was a Swedish citizen, and the policeman was found to be dereliction of duty. I hope you will announce what I said above to your readers.

  Q: This happened on September 2nd. Why did the China government react strongly two weeks later?

  A: On September 2nd, we received an oral report from the victims. Due to technical reasons, we only received a detailed written report on the morning of the 5th, and asked the hotels involved about the situation. After fully understanding the situation, we informed the Swedish Ministry of Foreign Affairs on the 5th and made solemn representations. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of China also made solemn representations to the Swedish Ambassador to China in Beijing. We hope that China will respond as soon as possible to the demands of these three citizens, such as investigating the truth thoroughly, apologizing, punishing the police involved and making compensation. But almost two weeks have passed, and the Swiss side has not responded at all. This is not in line with international practice. Three tourists from China were physically and mentally injured, and they expected the Swiss side to respond to their reasonable demands as soon as possible, so they had to resort to the media.

  Q: Have you personally contacted the representatives of the Swedish Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Swedish police?

  A: As I said just now, I personally met with the relevant person in charge of the Swedish Ministry of Foreign Affairs as soon as we learned about all aspects on September 5. As I emphasized in an interview with Swedish Evening News yesterday, the China government and our embassy cherish the life, safety and dignity of every China citizen. From the perspective of consular protection, this is by no means a trivial matter. We hope that Switzerland can attach great importance to the demands of these three victims in China and give them a proper response as soon as possible.

  The reporter asked about the details of the dispute between three China tourists and the hotel. Ambassador Gui said, I answered your question here yesterday to your Evening News reporter. This is a written record. You can learn more about it.

  Q: Swedish prosecutors have determined that the police have not broken the law.

  A: Then I can’t help but ask, three tourists were forcibly driven away from the hotel by rough means, including two old people, one of whom was sick and took medicine, and the police abandoned them in a graveyard in the middle of the night, when the temperature was below 10℃. Their lives are threatened and their dignity is hurt. Does the Swedish Police Act allow this? Is the Swedish Police Law so inhuman and immoral? Do Swedish laws have such disrespect for people’s basic rights? !

  Q: I have worked in the United States and I know that it is not a good idea to argue with the local police. I have seen the relevant video, and Mr. Zeng shouted "Kill" and was emotional. If someone quarrels with the American police in America, they may be arrested immediately. If the Swedish police arrested China tourists at that time, would this be a better choice?

  A: The Swedish police have confirmed that these three China tourists have not violated the law, and the police have no right to arrest them. Of course, if they break the law, the police should act according to law. As a matter of fact, three tourists from China are strangers. Not far away, Wan Li just arrived in Stockholm late at night and needed help. Who can they call? They could have approached our embassy, but unfortunately they didn’t. If the Swedish police are unwilling to help them, the best way is to contact our embassy, but they have not done so either. Even if the actions of these three China tourists are deficient or flawed, they can’t constitute the reason why the Swedish police treated them so rudely. Aren’t we supposed to respect human rights? ! Aren’t we going to talk about human rights? !

  Q: The police also act according to the routine and have the right to decide to move them to a place far away from the incident, and there is a subway station next to it. This is nothing special, and it is a common situation.

  A: As I said just now, three China tourists are not far from Wan Li. They just arrived in Stockholm late at night and are strangers. Although there was a subway station where the Swedish police forcibly dragged them, the first thing they saw was the cemetery. Can you imagine how they felt when they first saw the cemetery after being treated so rudely? Even if they find the subway station, will your subway still operate late at night? Why didn’t the Swedish police take them to a safe place? As far as I know, in winter in Stockholm, if someone is drunk on the street, the police have the obligation to send them to a warm place to prevent frostbite and freeze to death. Are the Swedish police so heartless and immoral about these three China tourists? Moreover, the three tourists are unarmed and cannot pose any threat to the police. Are Swedish police so cruel?

  Q: We have all watched the live video clip of the incident. Mr. Zeng fell to the ground in front of the police and shouted "Kill someone". Is there something wrong with his performance?

  A: They were forcibly evicted from the hotel. Mr. Zeng’s sick father, who was nearly seventy years old, fell to the ground and was half unconscious. His mother sat down on the ground and asked for help. Their family traveled with interest in Sweden, and when they first arrived in Stockholm, they fell into such helplessness and despair. What kind of reaction can you expect him to make? Yesterday, the reporter of Evening News also showed me that video. But why don’t you pay attention to the video of Mr. Zeng’s father lying on the ground and half unconscious? ! Why don’t you play it?

  Q: Regarding Mr. Zeng’s allegation that he was beaten and abused by the police, the Swedish prosecutor found that the accusation was unfounded and the police were not wrong. What’s your response to this?

  A: I have answered this question from the beginning. Do I need to repeat it?

  Q: No need. Can you tell us something about this family of tourists from China? Where are they from? What were their plans in Sweden? Where did they go after leaving Sweden?

  A: As for their family situation, I have no right to disclose it to you without their permission for privacy protection. After being rudely treated by the police, with the help of a local kind passerby, they took the light rail back to the center of Stockholm, called the police and reported the situation to our embassy, then gave up their travel plan in Sweden and left Sweden with fear and anger to continue their next trip.

  Q: At about 10 am on September 2, someone registered a social media account named "Swedenpoliceturechineseelders" on Twitter and posted photos. Few people knew about it at that time. Is this account opened by the staff of China Embassy?

  A: As I said just now, our embassy received Mr. Zeng’s oral report at 6 am on September 2, and received his detailed written report and photos on the morning of the 5 th.

  Q: So this account has nothing to do with the embassy?

  A: I think I answered clearly.

  Q: Mr. Ambassador, I believe you can see that this incident has aroused strong repercussions in China, especially on social media such as Weibo. Are you surprised by this?

  A: Now is the self-media era, and we all have to adapt to this reality.

  Q: Some people say that this incident is essentially caused by cultural conflict or misunderstanding, or it may be caused by language barrier. This will happen all over the world. Why did the China government make it a big deal?

  A: Do you think this is not a big deal? ! In the middle of the night, when the temperature is below 10℃, China tourists who come not far from Wan Li are not only disillusioned, but also their lives are in danger and their dignity is violated. Isn’t this a great event? ! Yesterday, I stressed to the reporter of Evening News that there are nearly 1.4 billion people in China, and the China Party and government cherish everyone’s life, safety and dignity. It is the duty of our embassies and consulates abroad to safeguard the life, safety and dignity of every China citizen abroad.

  Q: I worked in China. If the China police ask me, I will listen. What advice do you have for China tourists visiting Sweden in the future if they are faced with dialogue with Swedish police?

  A: The China Municipal Government has always reminded China citizens to abide by local laws and regulations, respect local customs and habits, and travel in a civilized manner when traveling abroad. On the other hand, all embassies and consulates in China pay close attention to the local security situation at all times, and issue safety reminders and warnings in time according to changes in the situation. Just look at the website of our embassy. We have issued several safety reminders since this summer. You can see the content of my interview yesterday. Frankly speaking, the relevant departments of China did not pay due attention to protecting the safety of tourists. So far, no case against China tourists has been solved. What do you say?

  Q: In fact, Swedish natives are also facing the same problem of being robbed. Do you think Sweden is more dangerous for tourists than other European countries?

  A: I answered the same question yesterday. You can show it to your interview record. I have also discussed the safety of tourists with the ambassadors of other countries in Sweden, and some ambassadors have also said that their citizens have also been frequently robbed. We hope that the Swedish government and relevant departments will attach great importance to this and take effective measures to avoid the recurrence of robbery against foreign tourists and make Sweden safer than other countries!

  Q: Some people in Sweden and China think that China’s handling of this case has something to do with Gui Minhai’s case, and it is retaliation against Sweden. What’s your comment on this?

  A: I saw this statement in your report in Express on the 16th. I want to stress once again that three China tourists were treated so rudely by Swedish police. Is this a trivial matter? ! Their lives are threatened and their dignity is hurt in the middle of the night. We made solemn representations to the Swiss side in this regard, demanding that the Swiss side respond to the reasonable demands of China tourists as soon as possible. Do we need to find other reasons? ! For those who put forward this statement, it shows that they simply don’t pay attention to or care about the life safety and human dignity of China tourists! For those who put forward this statement, I hope they will talk about basic human rights! We are very shocked and puzzled that China tourists have been treated so rudely and fallen into such a desperate situation and they have not paid attention to it.

  Q: Regarding the Gui Minhai case, China has always believed that Sweden has interfered in China’s internal affairs. So can we say that in this incident, China’s actions interfered in Sweden’s internal affairs?

  A: First of all, I want to add one more point. As mentioned in your report in the Express yesterday, some people said that it is not excluded that the incident of China tourists being rudely treated was deliberately directed by China. I want to say that the person who put forward this statement is too imaginative! They are so fabricated! We all live in reality, not in fictional detective stories!

  As for Gui Minhai’s case, Gui Minhai committed a serious crime in China, and China acted in accordance with the law. The Swiss side unreasonably demanded the Chinese side to release it, which is obviously an interference in China’s judicial sovereignty, with no regard for the rule of law and ignorance of the law. The three China tourists did not violate Swedish laws, but they were treated rudely by Swedish police, and their body, mind and dignity were hurt. Our tourists hope that the Swiss side will respond to their reasonable demands as soon as possible. As an embassy, we shoulder the responsibility of providing consular protection to China citizens abroad, and of course we have the obligation to explain to the Swiss side. This is a diplomatic practice and an international practice.

  Q: The Swedish prosecutor thinks that the police have not broken the law, and the Swedish police have also rejected the demands for apology and compensation from China tourists. So what will happen next?

  A: In a word, we will continue to ask the Swiss side to investigate the case thoroughly, act in accordance with the law and respond to the reasonable demands of China tourists as soon as possible. In doing so, we are defending the basic human rights of China citizens.

  Q: What if the Swedish police refuse?

  A: We urge the Swedish police to respond as soon as possible, but they will not answer the hypothetical questions.

  Q: What do you think of the relationship between Switzerland and China? Sweden was the first western country to establish diplomatic relations with New China, and bilateral relations have always been good.

  A: The people of China have always kept in mind that Sweden took the lead in establishing diplomatic relations with China among western countries, and they have friendly feelings towards the Swedish people. Our task is to work with Switzerland to safeguard, develop and consolidate the friendly feelings between the two peoples and promote the continuous development of Sino-Swiss relations. However, the development of Sino-Swiss relations must have a good foundation and principle, that is, equal treatment and mutual respect. In recent years, some forces, media and people in Sweden have not treated China as an equal. They keep saying that Sweden is a small country, but they always tell China what to do and give orders everywhere. They pretend to be teachers, full of arrogance, prejudice, prejudice and ignorance about China. We hope these forces, media and individuals in Sweden will give up their "high profile" and treat China as an equal. Only on this basis and principle can Sino-Swiss relations further develop.

The film Crossing the Yalu River: A New Image of the Epic of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea

The film Crossing the Yalu River is an epic film about the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea produced by the Central Radio and Television General Station.

From the perspective of Peng Dehuai, commander and political commissar of Chinese people’s Volunteer Army, the film tells the story from the outbreak of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea to the signing of the armistice agreement, shows the epic war between Chinese people’s Volunteer Army and the United Nations forces led by the United States, and presents us with a complete historical picture of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea.

This film has made a brand-new creative image processing for the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, which has three outstanding features: "all", "high" and "special".

The first is "all", that is, history is comprehensive;


In the past, most of the film and television works about the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea focused on the presentation of a certain battle or a certain hero, while the film Crossing the Yalu River presented the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea almost completely on the screen with a panoramic vision. This includes not only the domestic vision from the decision to resist U.S. aggression and aid Korea, to five battles and important battles among them, to the final victory of Chinese people’s Volunteer Army and the signing of an armistice agreement with the United States, but also the international vision that the U.S. military planned to launch the Korean War, Li Qiwei took office to take over, and the Soviet Union provided support to China.

The film gives a complete and comprehensive display of this period of history. From this point of view, this film can be called an epic masterpiece of the film to resist US aggression and aid Korea, and it also reflects the generosity and broad vision of the "Made in Taiwan" for the panoramic presentation of this war.

Secondly, it is "high", that is, the station is ambitious;


The film Crossing the Yalu River does not simply describe the problems of "losing and winning" and "fighting and peace";

But standing in the history of human development, under the background that the people of China have just achieved national independence and people’s liberation, it reflects the people of China’s pursuit of freedom and happiness and their desire for peaceful development after a hundred years of humiliation.

Such a strong endogenous motivation and strong national emotion can trigger and arouse a wide range of common emotional resonance of human beings;

This is also the reason why every volunteer soldier dares to fight and sacrifice in this war, and can exchange his life for battle and battle victory under extremely difficult conditions. The portrayal of characters in this film reflects the sincere feelings of pursuing a happy life and resisting aggression and oppression;

Under such common human feelings, propositions such as "war and peace", "justice and hegemony" and "individual and country" have been answered and expressed, which also reflects the height of the central radio and television general station in the production.

Finally, it is "special", that is, the expression perspective is unique;


Although the film Crossing the Yalu River is a panoramic display of the grand epic, its expression perspective is to find Peng Dehuai, the commander of Chinese people’s Volunteer Army, and to review and express the war from Peng Zong’s personal perspective. Among them are the contrast between General Peng and American generals, and the true feelings of General Peng and his comrades-in-arms … … All these make us see a unique image of Commander Peng Dehuai.

The image of Peng Dehuai created by Ding Yongdai in Crossing the Yalu River is also the most vivid and vivid in many film and television works, with clear love and hate, daring to fight and dare to rush, and at the same time, it is a temperature, sharpness and wisdom image of Peng Dehuai. On the other hand, in this unique perspective, the film realizes the three-dimensional shaping of the characters by comparing Peng Dehuai with different roles;

For example, compared with Li Qiwei, Liang Xingchu, Deng Hua and others, Peng Zong’s true feelings of complicated entanglements in his heart. Through the contrast and contrast of these characters, Peng Dehuai’s image in the film is shaped to be full of flesh and blood. At the same time, it is also this unique perspective of expression. The film vividly embodies and vividly expresses the complex relationship between characters and the outstanding highlights in the whole War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea.

Generally speaking, the film Crossing the Yalu River is a stunning masterpiece full of passion and sincere feelings, and it is a high-level, powerful and temperature-resistant blockbuster to resist US aggression and aid Korea, which embodies the strength of "Made in Taiwan".

The appearance of this film not only enriches the image expression of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, but also provides an excellent text for the general audience to understand the history of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea more deeply and comprehensively.

The ideology, artistry and commerciality of the film have been highly unified, and its social and market benefits are expected, and its creative experience is worth pondering and exploring. (Special Commentator: Hu Zhifeng)

The clothes that came to the school newspaper have changed. It’s really cool for college students after 00.

A freshman has just received accommodation equipment and stepped into the dormitory.

At the beginning of the new school year, the number of express delivery sites on campus has increased, and many freshmen buy school equipment online.

  Tmall big data platform shows that mobile phones, computers and tablets have become the "old three kinds" of college freshmen’s entrance equipment, and in 2019, college students added "new three kinds" to their school bags — — Electronic book, massager, balance car.

  In those days, the generation who went to the university campus with big packages on their backs mostly contained necessities, such as clothes, bedding, rice bowls, washbasins, kettles and enamel jars, leaving some places full of books. Today’s "post-00" college students bring fashion consumer goods to school. In recent years, college students’ entrance equipment has undergone great changes, not only the equipment has changed, but also the luggage they have reported to the school is simple, and "sending" and "arriving empty-handed" have become new fashions, which reflect the changes of fashion.

  Change: Two Generations’ Way to School

  In recent days, the little brother who delivered the courier for Tianjin Foreign Studies University has been very busy, which is more than 30% more than that on weekdays. As the school registration date approaches, the courier volume is still increasing. In his observation, many names are seen for the first time, and the telephone number is also a foreign number. Brother told reporters: "With years of experience, these are the express mails of freshmen. Many freshmen are often people who have not yet arrived in Tianjin, but the express delivery has arrived first."

  It is not unusual to buy equipment before school starts. It was like this in the past and it is still like this now, but what to prepare and how to prepare it are worlds apart.

  According to Meng Fanwei, a citizen, "In 1991, I went to Heilongjiang to go to college. My mother couldn’t sit still for the first time. This summer, she was completely immersed in needlework, making quilts, cotton jackets and cotton trousers for me, for fear that I would freeze in the northeast." He clearly remembers that due to his thin body, when boarding the train, he was almost dropped by the big quilt behind him. In addition to heavy quilts and cotton-padded clothes, the dry food along the way is also full. "I remember that eating children’s intestines was just popular at that time. My mother bought me a large handful, cooked tea eggs, prepared lunch meat and wrapped it in a big cake." Mr. Meng recalled, "My mother kept nagging when I left the house. You said how good it was to apply for a local university and had to run so far, which made me miss it." While talking, my mother’s tears came down. "At that time, there was no such convenient communication equipment. When I arrived in Qiqihar, I quickly found a public phone to report my safety at home. The phone had to be transferred to my father’s unit." Mr. Meng said.

  He further explained that compared with his brother who went to college in 1988, his equipment had been upgraded, but that upgrade was still a supplement to basic life; Nowadays, college students’ equipment has surpassed the basic needs of life and turned into the vane of market consumption trend.

  In 2019, 28 years later, Meng Fanwei’s daughter will go to Anhui to study. Near the beginning of school, Mr. Meng urged his daughter to prepare her bags quickly, and her daughter said impatiently, "What’s the hurry?" Just hold your horses, I have my own plans. " Before leaving, my daughter put some simple clothes and electronic equipment in her luggage case, and everything was waiting to be bought online after she arrived at school. Mr. Meng reminded his daughter to bring some Tianjin specialties to her roommates, so as to draw closer the friendship between classmates. I saw my daughter holding a mobile phone and saying, "I’m one step ahead of you, and everything has been arranged properly!" "

  Mr. Meng said humorously, "To sum up my daughter’s experience of going to college in two words, that is, starting school ‘ Send ’ And empty-handed ‘ To ’ . I joked that she didn’t have any sense of ceremony when she traveled alone for the first time. "

  There was no tears when I saw you off. My daughter patted vlog (video diary) along the way, recording what she saw and heard on her way to school. Jinan punched in! Qufu punches in! Punch in Bengbu! These short videos haven’t been enjoyed yet, and my daughter has arrived in Hefei from Tianjin. "We share our position at any time in the family group and can clearly see our daughter’s action track." Mr. Meng told reporters, "My wife and I gave our daughter more encouragement, praising her for being so successful on her first trip alone and being proud of her."

  We are always talking about change, and the experience of two generations on their way to school is a very typical case. Children travel thousands of miles, and their mother’s affection has never changed. However, because the lifestyle has changed, when the children’s action trajectory is well known, when the children’s bags are getting easier and easier, and when the future college life is becoming more and more convenient, the pain of lovesickness has also become a kind of sweetness.

  Upgrade: the speed is getting faster and faster

  Different eras have different school equipment, and the memories spanning decades are really intriguing and worth pondering.

  A backpack, a box and a net bag filled with thermos bottles, washbasins and rice bowls were the equipment of college students in the 1950s. In the 1960s, a pen, a change of clothes, and a large rice bowl were considered as the top editions of university equipment. By the end of 1970s, when the college entrance examination was resumed, pens, washbasins, bedding and enamel jars were still essential items for some time. Putting a pen in the pocket of the tunic suit was a symbol of that era, and some students with superior family conditions inherited a watch from their parents.

  Guo Xiaoling, a citizen, and reporters recalled that she was admitted to the university in 1987. "Because she was admitted to the university successfully, my mother gave me the watch she was wearing. At that time, it seemed like a gift. " Ms. Guo talked about this watch, which is of extraordinary significance. It was bought by her father with the "private money" accumulated for many years. Because she was admitted to the university, her mother put this "heirloom" on her daughter’s wrist as soon as she was happy.

  Ms. Guo said: "In addition to the necessary daily necessities, I have to take food stamps to report to school when I go to college. Because I am studying in Tianjin, I just need to bring Tianjin local food stamps, and those students from other places have to look around for national food stamps. By 1990, I had ‘ Half a car ’ Bicycles, my mother and I use them as needed. I remember that I didn’t have a bike of my own until I graduated from college. At that time, I bought a 24‘ from Tonglou Department Store. Kunche ’ 。”

  Although the age is different, all university equipment is centered on the needs of life such as food, clothing, housing and transportation. In the 1990s, especially after the new century, college students’ entrance equipment developed rapidly as if they were riding the "shenzhou spaceship".

  From walkman to CD player, it will be updated in four or five years; From pager to mobile phone, it will be replaced in five or six years; From desktop computers to notebook computers, it is upgraded almost once a year; From a bank card to mobile phone scanning code payment, the way of spending money is also updated. Today’s college students, with smart phones in their hands, tablets on the tables, and the latest laptops, are shuttling between teaching buildings on the balance car and returning to the dormitory for a full-body massage to relax.

  The entrance equipment is imprinted with the memory and emotion of several generations of college students. The starting point of these changes is that the people are rich in hand. According to the data released by the National Bureau of Statistics, at the beginning of the founding of New China, the per capita disposable income of Chinese residents was only 49.7 yuan. In the past 70 years, the income of urban and rural residents has increased substantially, and the consumption level of residents has improved significantly. By 2018, it has reached 28,228 yuan, which is nearly 60 times higher in real terms after deducting the price factor. At that time, the entrance equipment did not look advanced today, but at that time it was already the best in the family; Nowadays, before college students enter school, parents have already prepared the funds for purchasing equipment, and spending money is no longer stretched. This is change.

  Idea: "single-plank bridge" becomes "overpass"

  Material life is changing, and ideas are also changing with the times.

  In the interview, the reporter saw that some students sat on the grass of the school playground and recorded their life scenes on the first day after arriving at school with drones. Other students said that in addition to studying in college, they should be fully armed, get their driver’s license as soon as possible, and let themselves go out of school to be an all-round player. Equipment upgrade, concept upgrade, what is college for? People who study in universities in different ages have different answers to this question.

  At the beginning of the founding of New China, college students devoted themselves to the construction of new China. After the resumption of the college entrance examination in 1977, those college students deeply understood the powerful force of "knowledge changing fate"; In the 1990s, people born after the reform and opening up went to college. These college students experienced the competition of "single-plank bridge" and learned that "the world is as big as the stage is". Today’s college students have already integrated their thoughts into the world. Studying in college means that life has entered the fast lane, and there will be overpasses in the future, and there will be more roads for them to choose from.

  In the past 70 years, China’s higher education has been developing continuously. In 1952, colleges and universities across the country began to implement the national unified entrance examination, and a total of 66 thousand freshmen were admitted that year. In 1977, the college entrance examination was reopened, and 5.7 million candidates entered the examination room, with an admission rate of 4.8%. By this year, tens of millions of candidates across the country have taken the exam, more than 8.35 million candidates have entered universities, and the admission rate has reached more than 80%. Higher education has been popularized.

  There will be doubts and criticisms about the upgrading of college students’ entrance equipment, and they think that college students should stick to the tradition of hard work and plain living and practise economy in entrance equipment. Times are different, and excellent traditions should be inherited and carried forward, but the optimization and upgrading made to adapt to the changes of the times is actually more worthy of encouragement. It is necessary to remind students that no matter how much we spend, we should do what we can according to our family situation, and we should not pay too much attention to the brands or fashions of consumer goods, but should pay more attention to their practicality and cost performance. Moreover, when entering the university gate, while enjoying a happy life, I have a sincere gratitude for painstakingly cultivating my parents. The society should also look at the changes of college students’ entrance equipment with an inclusive heart, from which we can feel the gratifying progress of our society and look forward to a better future!

Just now! Sudden in the Middle East!

Over the weekend, the situation in the Middle East heated up sharply.

According to the latest news, the United States quickly deployed warships in place to "protect" Israeli and American troops in the region, hoping to prevent Iran from launching a "direct attack" on Israel. A US Department of Defense official revealed that the United States is sending more military units to Israel to strengthen regional deterrence and strengthen the protection of US troops.

According to the latest report of CNN, the United States has observed that Iran is moving military assets, including drones and cruise missiles, which indicates that "Iran may be preparing to attack Israeli targets from its own territory". One of the people familiar with the matter said that the United States observed that Iran had prepared as many as 100 cruise missiles.

Facing the risk of further escalation of the situation in the Middle East, the global market is becoming even more tense. Among them, the international oil price fluctuated greatly, and the global benchmark Brent crude oil once exceeded $92/barrel; Wall Street’s so-called "panic indicator" VIX index rose to its highest level since last October.

The United States quickly deployed warships in place.

On April 13th, the reference news quoted the website of The Wall Street Journal as saying that the United States quickly deployed warships to "protect" Israeli and American troops in the region, hoping to prevent Iran from launching a "direct attack" on Israel.

Earlier, a person familiar with the matter warned about the time and place where Iran might launch an attack.

It is reported that the commander of the US Central Command, General Curilla, discussed the possible Iranian attack with Israeli Defense Minister galante in Israel on the 12th.

According to the Israeli Defense Ministry statement, galante said: "We are prepared to defend ourselves on the ground and in the air, and work closely with our partners. We know how to respond."

U.S. officials said that the U.S. action included the redeployment of two destroyers, one of which was already in the area and the other was redeployed to the area. American officials also said that at least one of them was equipped with the Aegis missile defense system.

According to the US Army Times website reported on April 12, US officials confirmed on April 12 that in the face of reports that Iran may launch an attack on Israel, the Ministry of National Defense is mobilizing more troops and equipment to bases in the Middle East.

A Pentagon official said that these transfers are aimed at "strengthening regional deterrence and improving the protection capability of the US military". The Pentagon did not disclose information about the number of troops or the specific assets transferred to the area.

Earlier in the day, White House national security spokesman John Kirby also refused to disclose the specific details of the changes in the US military posture in the region, but said that government officials are paying close attention to the situation.

Kirby said that the United States has taken concrete actions to "ensure" that the US troops stationed in the region "make proper preparations" in the event of an attack.

At present, the United States has deployed about 40,000 military personnel in the Middle East. Another 1,000 people are going to the area to help build a floating pier near the coast of Gaza.

According to reports, Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said that he would retaliate against Israel’s air strike in Damascus on April 1, which killed at least 13 people, including a senior Iranian officer.

In addition, the State Council is also taking urgent action to issue safety warnings to all government employees and their families of the US Embassy in Jerusalem.

The Israeli military said that if the Iranian side retaliates against the air strikes on Iranian consular offices in Syria, the Israeli army will fight back. On the afternoon of the 12th, US President Biden warned Iran "not" to take action, and emphasized the US security commitment to Israel, saying that Iran would not succeed.

In the current tense situation, Hezbollah armed forces in Lebanon took the lead. On the evening of April 12, local time, rocket warnings sounded several times in northern Israel, and the "Iron Dome" defense system intercepted several times. According to Iranian media, "at least 50 rockets" were launched from southern Lebanon to northeastern Israel.

The Israeli army statement said, "About 40 rockets were fired from Lebanon to northern Israel, some were intercepted, and the rest landed in an open area. There are no reports of casualties." The Israeli army also claimed to have shot down two unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) loaded with explosives launched by Hezbollah in Lebanon at Israel.

Iran warning

On April 13th, the World Wide Web quoted the American news website "Axios" as saying that three American officials told the media that Iran sent the following message to Biden’s government through several Arab countries this week: If the United States intervenes in the conflict between Israel and Iran, the US troops stationed in the region will be hit.

A US Department of Defense official said that the United States is sending more military units to Israel to strengthen regional deterrence and strengthen the protection of US troops.

According to the report, a senior American official said that the United States insisted that it did not participate in the air strike. In this regard, the message conveyed by the Iranian side is, "Whoever attacks us, we will attack him, so don’t conflict with us, and we won’t conflict with you."

An American official told Axios that from the information received through several Arab countries, it is not clear whether Iran is threatening to attack the US military if it helps Israel intercept Iranian missiles, or whether it will only attack the US military if it participates in Israel’s retaliatory actions.

According to the US official, the overall assessment of the US intelligence community is that Iran will only attack the US military if the United States and Israel jointly fight back.

"prepared 100 missiles"

On April 13th, local time, according to the latest news from CNN, people familiar with American intelligence revealed that the United States observed that Iran was moving military assets, including drones and cruise missiles, which indicated that "Iran may be preparing to attack Israeli targets from its own territory".

According to the report, it is uncertain whether Iran really launched the first round of attacks from its own territory, or whether it is deliberately posing in an attempt to prevent Israel or the United States from launching a possible counterattack against its territory.

One of the people familiar with the matter said that the United States observed that Iran had prepared as many as 100 cruise missiles.

The report also said that a person familiar with the matter said that Iran hoped that their attack on Israel would look "significant" in retaliation for Israel’s attack on the consulate of the Iranian Embassy in Syria last week. But at the same time, Tehran also wants to avoid being involved in direct wars with Israel and the United States. That’s why American intelligence agencies have assessed that Iran may also use agents to launch the first attack.

CNN also said in another report that a senior government official and a person familiar with the matter revealed that the United States currently expects Iran to attack multiple targets in Israel, and Iranian agents may also participate in the attack. The targets may include targets in Israel and around the region.

The global market is tense

With the warming of risk aversion, the price of gold has hit record highs recently, which makes Wall Street "doubt life".

Among them, spot gold rose by 1.3% this week, that is, it rose by $30.5 per ounce. At one point this week, it rose to $2,431.53, and then it fell back. The latest price was $2,344.25, with a cumulative increase of 14% this year.

At the same time, the fluctuation of international oil prices is also intensifying. Brent crude oil, the global benchmark, once broke through 92 US dollars/barrel and jumped to the highest level since October last year. Since the beginning of this year, oil prices have soared by 19%.

The rising tension in the Middle East has disrupted the oil market. Ed Yardeni, the founder of Yardeni Research, a well-known wall street leader, pointed out that oil prices may reach $100 under the influence of this situation, and the situation in the Middle East has also weakened the upward momentum of US stocks.

The U.S. stock market also suffered a selling tide overnight. At the close, the Dow fell by 1.24% and fell below 38,000 points for the first time since January 24. The S&P 500 index fell by 1.46%, the biggest drop since Federal Reserve Chairman Powell’s speech on January 31 hit the expected interest rate cut in March. The Nasdaq fell 1.62%, the biggest drop since March 5.

As the tension between Israel and Iran worsens, Yardeni Research analysts say that if there is a real conflict between Israel and Iran, this may be the top of the US stock market.

It is worth mentioning that Wall Street’s so-called "panic indicator" VIX index rose to its highest level since October last year, and analysts warned that the market has always underestimated geopolitical risks.
