ロシア連邦保安局(FSB)は13日、極東サハリン州にある北海道新聞ユジノサハリンスク支局の日本人男性記者をスパイ容疑で拘束したと発表した。日本の情報機関の指示で動員兵などの情報を収集していたと主張し、身柄はモスクワに移送され、裁判所が2カ月の勾留を決定した。スパイ罪は重罪で、有罪になれば最長20年の禁錮刑が科される可能性がある。

ロシア連邦保安局(FSB)は13日、極東サハリン州にある北海道新聞ユジノサハリンスク支局の日本人男性記者を「スパイ容疑」で拘束したと発表した。日本の情報機関の指示で、動員兵などの情報を収集していたと主張している。身柄はモスクワに移送され、インタファクス通信によると裁判所が2カ月の勾留を決めた。

FSBによると、記者はクリール諸島(北方領土と千島列島)からウクライナ侵攻に出征した動員兵や志願兵の人数に関する情報を収集・保管。ロシアから出国予定だったところをサハリン州で身柄を拘束した。スパイ罪は重罪で、有罪になれば最長20年の禁錮刑が科される恐れがある。

FSBは拘束時の動画を公開。捜査員が宿泊先とみられるホテルの一室で記者に手錠をかけ、所持品を調べる様子が確認できる。北海道新聞ユジノサハリンスク支局も家宅捜索を受けたもようだ。

ロシア外務省は記者拘束について「ロシアの安全保障を損なうことを目的とした情報収集に自国の特派員を利用しようとする日本の試みは遺憾だ」と表明。ロシアに対する「敵対的な措置」を放棄するよう求めた。一方、在ロシア日本大使館は「事実関係を確認中」としている。

ICC sanctions make it difficult for the U.S. to change its mind, so Japan continues to lobby

Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi has declared that he will "continue to support" the International Criminal Court (ICC) after the Trump administration designated the organization itself as subject to sanctions. Although he has expressed his intention to continue lobbying the United States while cooperating with the international community, it seems that it will not be easy to get the United States to change its mind. The Japanese government launched a signature campaign to get the sanctions lifted, and students of ICC Director Akane submitted more than 170,000 signatures. At the House of Representatives Budget Committee, the prime minister emphasized continued communication with the United States and support for the ICC through cooperation with related countries, and expressed deep concerns on his X (formerly Twitter) account. In response to criticism that the U.S. government's statement that it was "deeply disappointed" when it designated Director Akane as a sanction target in August was "weak," it immediately announced its support for the ICC and issued a statement along with Britain, France, Germany, and other countries that it "strongly opposes," and, as a member of the ICC's Conference of the Parties, called for an immediate withdrawal. A Ministry of Foreign Affairs official described the impact of the sanctions as ``huge,'' and government officials do not hide their anxiety, saying they deny the existence of the ICC. The US administration is aiming to dismantle the ICC, and there appears to be a wide gap in its position with the Japanese government.
