俄羅斯當局以涉嫌從事間諜活動為由拘捕一名日本記者,指控他為東京蒐集與莫斯科國防能力有關的資訊。

據報導,這名記者是《北海道新聞》的今井裕紀(Yuki Imai;音譯),他在俄羅斯遠東薩哈林州(Sakhalin;中國舊稱庫頁島)被拘留,當時距離其離開俄羅斯僅餘一天。他其後被押送至莫斯科,一家法院下令將他羈押候審。

日本表示,仍在尋求有關拘捕事件的詳情,且尚未能與今井取得聯繫。

此次拘捕正值兩國關係進一步緊張之際。俄羅斯總統弗拉基米爾·普京(Vladimir Putin)於8月到訪俄日兩國有主權爭議的千島群島(俄羅斯稱庫里爾群島;Kuril Islands)。

俄羅斯官方塔斯社(TASS)報導引述當局稱,今井「按照(日本)國家情報機構的指示行事」,蒐集有關參與千島群島一次特別軍事行動人員的資訊。

千島群島位於日本北部北海道與俄羅斯堪察加半島(Kamchatka Peninsula)之間。該群島目前由俄羅斯管轄,但最南端四個島嶼受到日本主張,日本稱其為「北方四島」。

俄羅斯聯邦安全局(FSB)發布的影片顯示,三名身穿黑色制服、蒙面的男子衝入一間酒店客房,並為一名男子戴上手銬。影片隨後顯示該男子被帶上飛機,之後出現在莫斯科法院的被告欄內。影片未說明他何時被拘留,亦未交代法院聆訊的具體日期。

據另一家俄羅斯通訊社國際文傳電訊社(Interfax)報導,今井將被羈押至12月12日,之後案件才會開審。

在俄羅斯,被裁定犯有間諜罪的人最高可被判監禁20年。

俄羅斯外交部發言人瑪麗亞·扎哈羅娃(Maria Zakharova)星期二(10月13日)在一份聲明中表示:「東京利用持有外國記者身份的駐俄記者,蒐集旨在破壞我國安全的資訊,這種做法令人遺憾。」

她又指出:「我們不得不指出,今天的事件並非個別情況。」但她未有點名其他據稱參與類似活動的記者或媒體機構。

日本未有就拘捕事件作出詳細評論。內閣官房長官木原稔星期三(14日)在記者會上表示,日本是在消息公布後才得知拘捕事件,並且尚未與該記者取得聯繫。

今井過往發表的報導涉及俄羅斯與朝鮮(北韓)的關係,以及薩哈林的生活狀況。

《北海道新聞》在未具名記者的情況下刊登有關拘捕事件的報導。該報回應BBC查詢時表示:「我們仍在確認事件細節。確保記者安全是我們最優先考慮的事項。」

俄羅斯與日本圍繞千島群島的爭議已持續數十年,這亦是莫斯科與東京在第二次世界大戰結束後一直未能簽署和平條約的主要原因。

日本首相高市早苗嚴厲批評普京最近一次到訪。這是普京首次登上相關島嶼。她表示,此舉「傷害了日本人民的感情」,並且「與日本對北方領土的一貫立場不相容」。

莫斯科則駁斥其言論,稱之為「政治上不恰當」且「在法律上毫無根據」。

多年來,解決這場領土爭端的努力進展有限。雙邊關係亦持續冷淡,日本因俄羅斯於2022年入侵烏克蘭而對其實施制裁。

上星期,莫斯科再次激怒東京,要求引渡一名日本籍的國際刑事法院(International Criminal Court, ICC)院長赤根智子。

自2023年起,赤根智子與其他國際刑事法院官員被列入俄羅斯通緝名單。此前,國際刑事法院因烏克蘭戰爭罪行問題對普京發出逮捕令。

2023年,俄羅斯以間諜罪名拘留《華爾街日報》(The Wall Street Journal)記者伊凡·格什科維奇(Evan Gershkovich),其後判處他16年監禁。

身為美國公民的格什科維奇於2024年透過換囚獲釋。這是自1991年冷戰結束以來規模最大的囚犯交換行動。

Belize and two Paraguayan ministers were sanctioned by China. The Mainland Affairs Council refused to allow the CCP to interfere.

The Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs was dissatisfied with Belize and Paraguay maintaining diplomatic relations with Taiwan and announced sanctions on ministers of the two countries. This was the first time China directly sanctioned current ministerial officials of Taiwan's diplomatic allies. The Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council said the crackdown on Taiwan independence is reasonable and legal, while the Mainland Affairs Council criticized Beijing's actions as overbearing.

Taiwanese traveling to China were investigated again! Male nurse was interviewed while traveling in Tibet. National Security Bureau asked, "Will he serve the military?"

A Taiwanese nurse surnamed Lin was recently interviewed by Chinese national security officers for an hour while participating in a Tibetan tour group. She was repeatedly questioned about her political stance, party affiliation, military experience and views on unification. The Mainland Affairs Council has previously announced a similar case in which a nurse from a hospital affiliated to the Ministry of Health and Welfare went to Tibet and was interrogated.
