Panama president says Trump ‘lying’ about reclaiming canal
巴拿马总统何塞·劳尔·穆利诺指责美国总统唐纳德·特朗普在国会讲话中谎称他的政府正在“收回”巴拿马运河。穆利诺强调巴拿马拥有运河的完全控制权，并否认美国在此次商业交易中发挥了任何影响力。
特朗普所指的是美国贝莱德集团牵头的财团收购一家香港公司在巴拿马运河两端港口运营的控股权。巴拿马政府坚称，该交易是一项私人交易，此前已驳斥了中国控制运河的说法，并否认美国“收回”运河的说法。特朗普过去曾多次声称美国不应该将运河控制权交给巴拿马，并表示美国在使用运河时被收取过高的费用。今年二月初，美国国务卿马可·卢比奥曾与穆利诺会面，并声称中国正在对运河的运营施加影响，但巴拿马方面对此予以否认。

US says China operating ‘hacker for hire’ network available for cyberattacks worldwide
美国司法部宣布起诉12名中国公民，指控他们参与由中国政府主导的“雇佣黑客”生态系统，旨在窃取全球组织的数据。 这些被起诉者包括中国公安部官员、私营企业安洵信息技术有限公司的员工，以及据称受北京支持的黑客组织APT27的成员。他们将面临在纽约和华盛顿的联邦指控。
据美国国家安全官员透露，该网络攻击了包括美国财政部在内的多个实体，美国财政部在2024年遭受了重大数据泄露。起诉书和其他法庭文件显示，中国的执法和情报部门利用这种黑客雇佣模式来压制言论自由，并窃取包括美国财政部在内的大量组织的数据。此外，美国国务院还宣布对上海黑影信息技术公司的周帅及其公司实施制裁，指控其为“位于上海的恶意网络行为者和数据经纪人”。

US Supreme Court won’t let Trump withhold payment to foreign aid groups
美国最高法院做出裁决，驳回了特朗普政府试图拒绝向已完成工作的外国援助组织付款的请求。 这项 5 比 4 的裁决对特朗普政府造成了一次挫折，维持了地方法院法官的命令，该命令要求政府立即向美国国际开发署和国务院的承包商和受助人支付过去的款项。
此案源于特朗普政府试图停止对全球人道主义项目的资助。 地方法院最初设定的付款截止日期曾被首席大法官暂停，以便最高法院有更多时间考虑政府阻止该裁决的请求。保守派大法官对最高法院的裁决持不同意见，而政府方面认为，执行地方法院的命令会“非法征用联邦支付流程”。

US pauses intelligence sharing with Ukraine
美国已暂停与乌克兰的情报共享。这一决定由中情局局长 John Ratcliffe 宣布，原因是基辅和白宫之间的关系急剧恶化，此前美国总统特朗普和乌克兰总统泽连斯基在椭圆形办公室公开决裂，之后美国暂停了对乌克兰的关键军事援助。
Ratcliffe 证实，情报共享的暂停正值乌克兰试图击退俄罗斯入侵之际。他表示，特朗普总统对泽连斯基总统是否致力于和平进程表示质疑，因此做出了暂停的决定。Ratcliffe 同时表示，这种“在军事和情报方面的”暂停是暂时的，美国将再次与乌克兰“并肩作战”。

China widens fiscal window to step up spending, counteract US tariffs
China has set a record high deficit ratio of 4% for this year to increase government spending and counter the impact of US tariffs. This move, revealed alongside other key economic benchmarks during the National People's Congress, signifies a shift towards a more proactive fiscal policy aimed at achieving economic growth targets.
The increased deficit ceiling, representing an additional 1.6 trillion yuan (US$219.9 billion), is seen as a response to the escalating trade war with the US, particularly the recent doubling of tariffs on Chinese imports. Analysts believe this fiscal stimulus will help China maintain its GDP growth target of "around 5%" in 2025, offsetting the negative effects of the tariffs and supporting domestic demand.

China increases defence spending by slower pace than neighbours
中国今年的国防预算将增长7.2%，增幅为1.78万亿元人民币（约合2452亿美元）。这一增长率与过去两年持平，但低于一些邻国，表明中国在经济复苏和军事现代化之间寻求平衡。
分析人士认为，这一预算反映出北京认为国际局势和台湾海峡局势影响有限，将继续推进既定的军事现代化目标，即到2050年建成“世界一流”军队。与此同时，其他国家如印度、日本和菲律宾的国防预算增幅相对较高，而欧洲国家预计也将因美国政治变化而大幅增加国防开支。

US deals with Canada, Mexico in pipeline: prelude to an expanded trade push against China?
Analysts suggest that recent US trade deals with Canada and Mexico, following import tariffs, may signal a broader trend of countries aligning trade policies with the US to avoid punitive measures, particularly concerning China. This comes after the US imposed 25% tariffs on imports from both Canada and Mexico, prompting immediate discussions to demonstrate improved trade practices.
While US Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick highlighted talks with Canada and Mexico, he made no mention of discussions with China, despite the US imposing additional tariffs on Chinese imports. This has led some analysts to believe that the US strategy involves containing China by building a network of countries with aligned trade rules. The economic dependence of Mexico and Canada on the US makes them more likely to comply with US demands, especially given signs that they were already considering a firmer stance on China before the tariffs were imposed.

China pledges to spend as US plans cuts, cross- strait conundrum: SCMP daily highlights
China and the US are presenting contrasting economic visions, with Premier Li Qiang promising increased spending to boost China's growth, while former President Trump is advocating for reduced federal spending to balance the US budget. This divergence highlights fundamentally different approaches to economic management and future priorities.

China’s bigger diplomatic budget underlines global push, unlike Trump’s ‘America first’
China is significantly increasing its foreign policy budget, signaling a more proactive approach to global diplomacy and development initiatives. The proposed 8.4% increase to over 64.5 billion yuan (US$8.87 billion) for "diplomatic endeavors" in 2025 surpasses last year's 6.6% rise, indicating a strategic prioritization of international relations.
This budget increase comes as Premier Li Qiang highlighted China's diplomatic achievements at the National People's Congress, emphasizing President Xi Jinping's engagement with numerous countries and key global events. The move is seen by some as a counterpoint to perceived isolationist tendencies in the US, with China aiming to deepen ties with the Global South and expand its Belt and Road Initiative.

Ditched by the US, Europe must consider a ‘common home’ with Russia
Europe's geopolitical stability is increasingly uncertain as the Ukraine war continues and the United States, under Donald Trump, appears to be sidelining European interests in favor of direct engagement with Russia. Trump's cordial phone call with Putin and subsequent meetings between US and Russian officials in Saudi Arabia and Turkey, without European or Ukrainian involvement, signal a potential shift in US foreign policy that disregards Europe's role in the conflict.
This perceived abandonment has triggered strong reactions from European leaders, who denounce Washington's change in direction and reaffirm their commitment to supporting Ukraine. Crisis summits in Paris and London aim to forge a united European front, pledging continued aid to Ukraine and a role in the peace process, potentially including peacekeeping troops. However, many observers express pessimism about Europe's future, especially given the security threat from Russia and the perceived betrayal by the US.

Thais riled by surge in illegal short-term condo rentals amid tourist influx
泰国酒店业正受到非法短租房激增的冲击，尤其是一些针对中国市场的海外房东，他们的行为不仅蚕食了酒店预订量，还扰乱了当地居民的生活。这些公寓楼变成了游客的临时宿舍，对原本安静的社区造成了影响。
泰国旅游业迎来复苏，预计今年将通过免签政策吸引约3800万游客。然而，游客数量的增长也带来了一系列问题，包括外国和本地投资者非法将公寓短租给游客，其中中国游客是主要客户群体之一。根据2004年《酒店法》，业主在未获得特定许可的情况下，不得将房产出租少于30天。但由于法律未能充分修订以适应Airbnb等短租平台的发展，曼谷市中心的住宅区内出现了大量公开宣传的日租房。

Brace for more US pressure on Chinese investment after Panama Ports sale, analysts warn
CK Hutchison Holdings' decision to sell its global port stakes, including those near the Panama Canal, highlights the increasing dilemma faced by countries and firms navigating investment from both China and the US. Analysts suggest this move underscores the growing resistance to China's global ambitions, particularly its Belt and Road Initiative, as the US seeks to limit Chinese influence worldwide.
The sale follows claims by former US President Donald Trump that China controlled the Panama Canal, a statement refuted by both Panama's president and Chinese officials. A consortium including BlackRock and Global Infrastructure Partners will acquire the units holding a significant portion of Hutchison Ports, including Panama Ports, which operates two key ports in Balboa and Cristobal, along with controlling interests in 43 other ports across 23 countries. This deal exemplifies the challenges companies face when geopolitical tensions impact business decisions.

Daughter of Hong Kong man accused of raping her kept silent as mother also helpless
一名香港女子指控其失业父亲在九年内强奸她13次，她在法庭上表示，之所以没有告诉母亲，是因为母亲也曾遭受虐待，无力保护她。 这名现年26岁的女子指控其58岁的父亲在2011年至2019年间多次强奸她，最早的事件发生在她年仅12岁时。她之前告诉法庭，在她上大学并于20岁搬出去后，袭击才停止。
在辩方律师的质询下，该证人表示，多年来她一直保持沉默，从未试图向母亲报告这些袭击，因为她不相信母亲能够保护她。“她自己也被[被告]殴打过，腿和胳膊上有瘀伤，她甚至没有反抗，”女儿告诉由七名成员组成的陪审团。被告否认了13项强奸罪和1项非礼罪。
