US firm Intuitive Machines’ spacecraft lands on moon, but status unclear
Intuitive Machines的雅典娜号着陆器已成功登陆月球表面。 然而，着陆器的具体状态和健康状况尚不明确，公司正在进行进一步的评估。此次任务是该公司第二次尝试登月，目标着陆点位于月球南极附近，携带了11个有效载荷和科学仪器。
着陆过程中出现了一些不确定性，着陆器引擎在预计着陆时间后仍在运行，似乎在月球表面盘旋。在工程师发出指令关闭引擎后，公司确认着陆器已在月球表面，但具体姿态不明。受此消息影响，Intuitive Machines的股价在盘后交易中下跌超过20%。该公司是NASA支持的众多旨在重返月球的私营公司之一，这种模式被认为成本较低，但风险较高。

Europe’s Ariane 6 rocket blasts off on first commercial mission
Europe's Ariane 6 rocket successfully launched on its first commercial mission, carrying a French military satellite and bolstering the continent's independent access to space. The launch from French Guiana occurred after several delays, including a last-minute postponement, marking a significant step for Europe in strengthening its security capabilities.
The mission is particularly crucial as Europe seeks to reduce its reliance on the United States for security partnerships, especially given the uncertainties surrounding future US foreign policy. The launch proceeded as planned, with the main stage separating successfully, and the rocket is expected to reach orbit just over an hour after launch. A previous attempt was aborted due to a malfunctioning valve, highlighting the complexities involved in such missions.

Trump plans to revoke legal status of Ukrainians who fled to US, insiders say
特朗普政府计划取消约24万因俄乌冲突逃离的乌克兰人的临时合法身份，这可能会使他们面临被快速驱逐的风险。这一举动预计最早可能在四月份发生，与拜登政府此前对乌克兰人的欢迎态度形成鲜明对比。
据消息人士透露，取消对乌克兰人保护的计划在特朗普与乌克兰总统泽连斯基公开不和之前就已经在进行中。这是特朗普政府更广泛行动的一部分，旨在剥夺超过180万移民的合法身份，这些人是在拜登政府推出的临时人道主义假释计划下进入美国的。

UK exempts Hong Kong BN(O) passport holders from needing ETA ahead of travel
香港英国国民（海外）护照（BN(O)）持有人前往英国将不再需要申请电子旅行授权（ETA）。英国政府扩大了此前仅适用于BN(O)签证持有者的豁免范围。这一变化源于英国移民和公民事务部长Seema Malhotra的一封信，信中提到政府在“听取证据”后做出了这一决定。
Malhotra在致英国上议院议员David Alton的信中表示，此决定的基础是BN(O)群体与英国的紧密联系，以及英国对他们的历史承诺。更重要的是，英国政府签发了BN(O)护照，就像英国公民的护照一样，因此英国对持照人的身份有“更高程度的确定性”。她补充说，内政部将“尽早”修改移民规则，并持续审查该豁免，以防出现滥用情况。

Trump ‘likely’ to defer tariffs on goods under US-Mexico-Canada pact: Lutnick

Hong Kong rejects US credit rating agency’s report on property market oversupply
香港政府反驳了美国信用评级机构标准普尔关于香港房地产市场供应过剩的报告，强调数据显示住房需求强劲。政府官员表示，截至去年年底，私人住宅的空置率为4.5%，租金持续稳步上涨，这些数据反映了当前强劲的住房需求。
标准普尔全球评级在报告中指出，政府并未积极解决住房供应过剩问题，并认为写字楼供应过剩是该行业面临的“最严重”问题。政府发言人表示，考虑到利率下降、经济持续增长以及人才引进等因素，预计今年住宅市场将“稳步”增长。此外，暂停商业用地出售的政策将有助于市场消化现有供应。

ASML to build reuse-and-repair centre in Beijing despite US-China tech tensions
ASML Holding将在北京建立一个“再利用和维修”中心，表明其对中国市场的承诺。 尽管面临来自美国的压力，这家全球领先的芯片制造设备供应商仍致力于深耕中国市场。该计划在其年度报告中披露，是关于零部件“循环经济”部分中的唯一重大项目。
由于美国出口管制规则，ASML无法向中国客户销售其极紫外光刻系统。此前有报道称，荷兰政府可能限制ASML在中国大陆维修和维护其半导体设备的能力。但中国是ASML最大的市场，占其2024年总销售额的36.1%，首次取代台湾。去年，该公司在中国大陆的销售额为102亿欧元（109亿美元），而台湾为43亿欧元，占总额的15.4%。

‘We are not alone’: Zelensky thanks Europe at crisis summit
Volodymyr Zelensky thanked EU leaders for their support as the bloc convened crisis talks to address the implications of Donald Trump's shift away from Ukraine and traditional transatlantic alliances. The summit, the first gathering of all 27 EU leaders since the contentious Trump-Zelensky meeting, comes amid Washington's suspension of crucial military aid and intelligence sharing to Kyiv.
The EU is now facing increased pressure to bolster its own security commitments, particularly in light of doubts surrounding America's long-term dedication to European defense. Ursula von der Leyen has proposed a plan to mobilize €800 billion to "re-arm Europe" in response to the perceived threat from Russia, signaling a potential turning point in the bloc's approach to defense and security.

Hong Kong private hospital patients left in dark on prices, watchdog finds
香港消费者委员会指出，私立医院在价格信息和收费机制方面缺乏透明度。 2021年至2024年间，消委会收到191宗关于私立医疗服务的投诉，其中87宗涉及价格纠纷。一个案例显示，一名膝盖手术患者最终账单比最初的估价高出9万港元。
有消费者投诉称，最初被告知膝盖手术费用约为12万港元，但在手术前，医院将价格修改为17万至21万港元，理由是估算错误。另一名患者的未公开手术，医生预估费用约为16万至17万港元，但最终账单高达23万港元。消委会发现，许多消费者依赖官网信息进行价格比较，但并非所有日间手术中心都公开价格，且信息往往不全面。

JD.com nearly triples quarterly profit on back of revived consumer spending
JD.com saw its December-quarter profit nearly triple year-over-year, reaching 9.9 billion yuan (US$1.4 billion), driven by increased consumer spending in China. Revenue also increased significantly, reaching 347 billion yuan, a 13.4% increase from the previous year.

China determined to ‘resolutely’ keep yuan stable amid US tariff pressure
China's top financial officials have pledged to maintain the stability of the yuan amidst escalating trade tensions with the United States. Pan Gongsheng, governor of the People's Bank of China (PBOC), stated that the country will "resolutely prevent exchange rate overshooting" to ensure the yuan remains stable at a reasonable level. This statement marks Beijing's first official response to accusations from US President Donald Trump that China and Japan are gaining unfair advantages through currency depreciation.
The yuan has been facing increasing pressure due to the strong US dollar and economic uncertainties stemming from Trump's decision to raise tariffs on Chinese goods. Trump has previously accused China of intentionally undervaluing its currency, even labeling Beijing a currency manipulator during his first term. Pan emphasized that China will uphold the market's decisive role in exchange rates while strengthening expectations management to maintain stability.

Chinese tech firms from Huawei to Inspur push ‘all-in-one’ DeepSeek AI servers
Dozens of Chinese tech manufacturers, including Lenovo, Huawei, and Inspur, are introducing new "all-in-one" servers pre-loaded with DeepSeek's advanced AI models. This initiative aims to democratize AI technology by making it more accessible to both private and public enterprises throughout China, enabling them to quickly deploy AI applications without extensive technical resources.
According to a report by China International Capital Corp (CICC), industries handling sensitive information, such as government, finance, public services, and healthcare, are expected to drive approximately 5% of the country's AI server demand. These sectors favor on-premise data centers for security reasons, making the DeepSeek-powered AI machines an attractive option. CICC projects that the domestic AI server market will reach 54 billion yuan (US$7.4 billion) in sales by 2025. The accessibility and security features are key factors in the rising popularity of these AI servers.
