【ブリュッセル時事】欧州連合(EU)首脳会議に出席したウクライナのゼレンスキー大統領は16日、ブリュッセルで記者会見した。トランプ米大統領から、燃料価格高騰など米国内の問題の「スケープゴート(身代わり)」にされているのではないかと問われ、約15秒間沈黙した後、ニヤリと笑みを浮かべた。会場から笑いが起きると、「これが私の答えだ」とだけ述べ、記者会見を終えた。

ウクライナ大統領、ロシア製油所攻撃「再開」 トランプ氏「恥ずべきこと」

質問した英スカイニューズの記者は、11月の米中間選挙を控え、米国で軽油価格が高騰し、中東での戦争も思い通りに進まず、トランプ氏の支持率が低迷していると指摘。ゼレンスキー氏に対し、トランプ氏自身の問題の責任を押し付けられていると感じるかと尋ねた。

トランプ氏は、燃料価格を押し上げているとして、ウクライナによるロシアの製油所への攻撃を非難。ゼレンスキー氏が和平合意をまとめようとしていないと主張し、「ウクライナは新たな大統領を迎える時期に来ている」とも述べていた。

Taliban intensifies recruitment of children; UN also notes high number of explosives incidents in Afghanistan

A new United Nations study has revealed that recruitment of children under the age of 18 has intensified in Afghanistan under the Taliban regime. After returning to power in August 2021, the government had declared a ban on conscripting children, but in the three years from January 2023 to December 2025, 557 juveniles were conscripted, an 81% increase compared to the previous reporting period from 2021 to 2022. Additionally, during the same period, 1,128 children were confirmed to have been killed or injured by unexploded ordnance, and it has been pointed out that the return of Afghan refugees from Pakistan is contributing to the spread of the damage.

On the other hand, it also emphasizes its relationship with Russia and shows an attitude of avoiding dependence on China.

Possibly aiming to exchange Japanese journalists with Russians, also related to Japanese hacker detention

Russian authorities have detained a Hokkaido Shimbun reporter, sparking speculation that Putin's government is aiming to exchange his country's nationals detained in Western countries. Some are linking this to the case in which Japan captured a Russian hacker and handed him over to Germany in May. Russian independent media has questioned the detention of the reporter as retaliation, and has also reported on the detention of a former Japanese language teacher in Belarus on suspicion of spying and moves to lift sanctions.
