Die USA drängen auf Informationen zum Verdachtsfall in Sibirien. Die Weltgesundheitsorganisation WHO bietet Russland Hilfe bei der Aufklärung der Ursache an.

US-Präsident Donald Trump will wegen eines Verdachtsfalls auf Lungenpest mit Kremlchef Wladimir Putin telefonieren. Er antwortete auf eine Journalistenfrage, ob er mit Putin über den Fall gesprochen habe: „Ich habe einen Termin für ein Telefonat.“ Es werde sehr bald stattfinden.

Die US-Gesundheitsbehörde CDC hatte zuvor auf der Plattform X mitgeteilt, dass sie Kenntnis habe von Berichten über den Verdachtsfall in der russischen Region Irkutsk, der zum Tod einer Laborantin geführt hat. Die CDC machte zugleich deutlich, dass der berichtete Fall nicht bestätigt sei.

Auch die Weltgesundheitsorganisation (WHO) drängt auf mehr Informationen aus Russland und bot Hilfe bei der Aufklärung an.

Wegen steigender Zahlen von Maserninfektionen in ländlichen Gebieten des US-Bundesstaates New York hat Gouverneurin Kathy Hochul den Notstand ausgerufen, um Impfmaßnahmen und Tests zu erleichtern.

Die Vereinigten Staaten haben zudem ihre Langstreckenbomber aus Sorge vor einem möglichen iranischen Drohnenangriff von einem Militärstützpunkt in Großbritannien abgezogen.

Trade policy: China criticizes plans for new EU trade instruments

China has criticized Germany and France for calling for new European safeguards against unfair trade practices and warned against protectionism. Chancellor Merz and President Macron had previously proposed joint protection instruments to counter market-distorting practices, presumably in light of Chinese trade policies. The criticism comes ahead of planned trade talks between EU Trade Commissioner Sefcovic and China's Trade Minister Wang in Beijing.

The concern of British secret services after the disaster involving August Hanning

British intelligence services are checking whether secret information or agents were compromised in the espionage scandal involving former BND President August Hanning and his former office manager Manfred D. Hanning is accused of having illegally obtained thousands of secret documents over the years and selling them to a foreign power. British and US services want to carry out a systematic review of all sensitive information shared with the BND in order to protect sources. The arrests took place on Tuesday on suspicion of espionage and treason.
