@KELMAND1 重要的不是扣留数量，而是有没有正当理由。没有正当理由，一艘都嫌多。有正当理由，多少艘都没问题。

3 月份，根据《东京谅解备忘录》，共有 179 艘船舶被扣留，其中 123 艘发生在中国港口。 然而，被中国港口国管制扣押的巴拿马船只数量为 91 艘，而悬挂其他国旗的船只仅有 32 艘—这意味着上个月，亚太地区被扣押的所有船只中，超过一半是在中国被扣押的巴拿马船只。 此外，123艘船舶被扣留的总数远高于去年任何一个月在中国港口被扣留的船舶数量，也远高于今年前两个月的扣留数量。2月份亚太地区共扣留了112艘船舶，其中45艘发生在中国；而1月份则有122艘被扣留，其中71艘发生在中国。 据说这些船只扣押是对巴拿马最高法院撤销中国香港的公司授予的特许权的一种报复。

@nikstankovic_ Oil and gas companies are clear winners of this war.

Only those not involved in this war can benefit. China comes to mind. I'd say Russia too, but Russia has the war in Ukraine of course. Everyone else involved loses. The question is who loses less. US lost all its bases and radars in GCC, a bunch of expensive military jets, pride in pulling its aircraft carriers out of the theatre, and accomplished none of the stated goals yet. Iran and Israel have been devastated with bombs, their economies will take a decade or more to recover. GCC region too, perhaps bombed less, but its safe haven status gone. The entire planet will suffer with more expensive oil which means more expensive everything. Likely a global recession for the rest of 2020s. There will be no winner in this war. US and Israel have to topple Iranian regime to call it a victory. This will not happen. Iran convincing US and Israel that they will not fold is hardly a victory after all the damage. Of course, it's not a war of choice for Iran.

@RnaudBertrand To a great degree, it’s also for the interest of Spain as it may feel even worse about the policy of the US towards Latin America. Those Spanish speaking countries may be considered as the back garden by many Spanish people. They are not happy with the US anyway.

I have to admit: as a French man it makes me a tiny bit angry to see Spain be the principled Gaullistes of our age. I love Sanchez, pretty much the only EU statesman worth his salt today, but he also really highlights how depressingly bad the others are in comparison. My country in particular... Hopefully a lesson will be learned. This is very Gaulliste too: he was never big on lecturing others, but all about setting an example.

@amKKcop @Compute_King 冰冻三尺，非一日之寒。一步步慢慢来就行了。可惜没有看到伊朗对内有什么改革的样子，对外就更不用说了。

@chefchef00 @Compute_King 如果没有老美的制裁和封锁，伊朗可以很富有也可能更亲美，但是做不到，不是不想改革开放，是门开了，外面一堵墙

阿里·拉里贾尼7年前在中国人民大学演讲全文 Full Text of Ali Larijani's Speech at Renmin University of China Seven Years Ago 转自：人大重阳。 编者按：3月18日，伊朗总统证实伊朗最高国家安全委员会秘书阿里·拉里贾尼已遇难并发表悼词。作为伊朗的最高级领导人之一，拉里贾尼曾于2019年以伊朗议会议长的身份访问中国人民大学，并在“重阳论坛”作题为“伊朗与中国：走向共享未来之路”的演讲。透过这篇演讲，我们得以窥见这位伊朗政治人物的思想深度与国际视野。现将其演讲全文再次发布如下： 阿里·拉里贾尼：尊敬的先生们、女士们，首先，我想表达内心的喜悦，今天有幸能在中国人民大学与各位尊敬的学者和思想家们见面，同时，我谨代表我敬爱的伊朗同胞们向中国人民致以新春问候，并对中国改革开放40周年表示祝贺，我希望能与在座各位一同见证在全面改革开放新的十年里，与中国人民、全世界人民日益成功和幸福的未来。 尊敬的朋友们，世界局势正在朝着更加复杂和危险的方向发展。我们注意到，世界和平与稳定的基石正在被一些霸权势力所动摇，他们一方面寻求成为21世纪的历史缔造者，并给那些“文明”的国家强加以被历史抛弃的发展模式；另一方面寻求给其他国家施以任意价码来实现自己国家的一己私欲，随意践踏国际秩序与合法政权，并破坏几世纪以来逐渐形成且来之不易的多边主义。 那些霸权势力否认别国民众选择自身命运的权利，干涉别国内政，使世界许多国家的政权受到威胁与挑战，他们利用邪恶势力，如恐怖主义、支持极端主义、政变等方式，通过诉诸他们的双重标准来给地区带来不稳定与骚乱，却拒绝为其行动对那些国家带来的灾难负责。在与他国的经济交往中，强行输入零和思维，非赢即输，并从不认可互利共赢思维及其他共建经济体。 但是与那些古老而文明的国家寻求相应的解决之道，从这些霸权势力造成的错综复杂的情况中脱身而出是可能的，因为他们依靠自身丰厚的历史文化底蕴和智慧，会向全人类展示正确的道路，这一观点有着丰富的历史实例来佐证，那些霸权势力应仔细研究学习，才能追赶上中国、伊朗这样的大国在世界的历史地位和分量。有中国这样的文明古国在“一带一路”倡议框架下，复兴古丝绸之路精神，对于21世纪的各个国家都是非常有价值的历史性事件。 尊敬的女士们、先生们，我们总体追溯一下过去的政治哲学。 在自由主义思想体系中，虽然关注到了竞争，但这类思想往往打着自由主义的幌子，谋求强权统治、主张弱化中央集权，没有解决实现经济平等时所面临的重大挑战。这一点，在作为自由主义发源地的那些国家中，就能找到诸多现实例证。 “一带一路”倡议，正如我在习近平主席阁下的书当中看到的，所有国家都应在包容和竞争的基础上追求世界和平，因为中国的发展和其他国家的发展是联系起来的，因此，这一倡议在实现和平方面具有非常高的潜力。 虽然美国正在努力破坏这一倡议，但我认为，因为“一带一路”倡议让其他国家参与其中，所以这个理论将不会被美国的冒险行为所打败。“一带一路”倡议让我们想起了和平合作、开放包容、互学互鉴、互利共赢的丝绸之路精神以及“一带一路”沿线国家在丝绸之路上创造的辉煌历史，古丝绸之路通过解决人类社会需求，推动各民族之间的对话交流和通商往来，促进了商贸发展，世界和平，加强了人际纽带，有助于人类和平共生，可以说人类在丝绸之路时代共同创造的文明已成为人类共同遗产，并成为当前人类共同的骄傲。 今天，“一带一路”倡议秉持了三大重要原则，指的是共商、共建、共享，并注重建立各国之间的沟通与合作，强调法治，支持多边主义，提供互利共赢的合作平台，并很好响应了当今时代的发展需求。现在有一些霸权势力对发展中国家和欠发达国家的发展和稳定并没有做出实质性的努力，只是空喊政治口号。然而“一带一路”倡议真正专注于这些国家的需求，并指出发展是当今人类最主要的需求。世界人民也很好地从这一倡议中获益，并且有越来越多的国家加入到这一倡议中来。 当今世界，一些大国拒绝认同理解其他国家，并输出自己的思想和价值观，并承诺把自己的价值观作为发达模式，强加给其他各国，然而“一带一路”倡议正在努力，建立各国之间的精神纽带，为人类之间相互理解创造基础，并有助于这些国家形成自己的本土发展模式，“一带一路”倡议与那些没有责任感的大国截然不同，它号召人类共同承担责任，在一条形成人类命运共同体的理念道路上前行。 “一带一路”倡议在一定程度上已得到历史悠久的文明古国伊朗的支持，伊朗著名诗人萨迪在公元7世纪就创造出了著名的诗句“亚当子孙皆兄弟，造物之初本一体”的诗句，正式强调了人类相互之间应对人类共同命运负有的责任感。 尊敬的朋友们，下面我想谈谈丝路精神对伊朗伊斯兰共和国的重要性。 第一，关于伊朗核问题签署的联合全面行动计划得到了联合国安理会的认可，已是伊朗与其中包括中国在内的各国进行漫长会谈的结果，同时表明了伊朗恪守丝路精神，尊重多边主义。至今为止，伊朗全面履行协议中承诺的，已经得到国际原子能机构13次确认，但令人遗憾的是，美国以子虚乌有的借口逃避自己在协议中的承诺，并全面退出了伊朗行动计划即伊朗核计划，而且肆无忌惮煽动其他各方退出该协议。虽然各方拒绝了美国提出的非法要求，并强调继续维护全面联合行动计划，但伊朗伊斯兰共和国仍希望各方采取务实行动，全面履行自己的承诺，不要屈服于强权势力施加的任何压力，以充分保护该协议，共同维护多边主义。 第二，伊朗伊斯兰共和国认真遵循互不干涉内政，尊重国家主权原则，一贯主张各民族有决定自己命运的权利。但令人遗憾的是，美国以各种形式，比如支持世界各地的国际恐怖主义和极端组织，在世界各地推翻独立国家，扶植一些非法傀儡政权。美国干涉他国内政的行径的确对世界来说是非常危险的。 第三，在40年前，伊斯兰革命在霍梅尼的领导下彻底根除了依附于美国的傀儡政权，把美国从伊朗赶出去了，霍梅尼的思想是维护和平，保护受压迫人民的权利。伊朗的反恐是应伊拉克和叙利亚的要求而进行的，其宗旨是在伊斯兰革命领袖阿亚图拉·哈梅内伊的领导下实现地区和平，维护受压迫人民的权利。令人欣慰的是，今天我们看到了恐怖主义和极端主义遭到了重创，美国是恐怖主义的主要支持者，这是有目共睹的事实，多年来，美国一直在破坏阿富汗、伊拉克、叙利亚和其他国家的安全，还有一些本地区的国家受到美国的教唆，自中东地区危机一开始，伊朗就以一个负责任的国家倡导通过政治协商解决问题。今天，以色列政权，我们不能把它称为一个国家，而是作为一个政权，该政权正在破坏中东地区的和平与稳定，并借助美国的谎言破坏本地区人民的权利。所以，面对美国和以色列政权破坏地区安全的行为，需要世界各国联合起来，共同抵抗，否则世界的和平将会遭到威胁。 但遗憾的是，美国总是对其他国家采取敌视政策，并以各种方法诸如单方面对他国进行非法制裁，对他国进入美国的商品征收高额关税，企图通过这些方法来打击其他国家。但美国的这些行径是不会取得成功的，因为大家都知道，在21世纪，单边主义已经行不通了，各国不会屈服于美国的淫威。 女士们、先生们，今天世界比以往任何时候更需要“一带一路”倡议中的丝路精神，以及多边主义等具有建设意义的理念，因为只有这些思想和理念，才能更好地提升国际和地区的和平与稳定，才能有效促进各国的经济发展，增进人类的互相交流、理解和认识。我们认为，带着政治有色眼镜或以狭隘的思想看待“一带一路”倡议是在理解这一创举的内涵方面出现的战略错误，我们必须从不同角度解读“一带一路”倡议所包含的丰富内涵。那些所谓的列强大肆利用政治宣传攻击“一带一路”倡议，这是他们“故意”犯的错误，同时暴露了他们对“一带一路”沿线国家创造新文明的仇恨。 伊朗伊斯兰共和国的区域政策一直强调促进和平，持续发展，实现各国幸福，通过对话和协商，和平解决分歧的理念。在过去的40年里，伊朗在地区和国际领域提供了许多帮助，并发挥了积极有效的作用，中国是我们的朋友和兄弟，我们愿意与中国携手，在“一带一路”倡议框架内加强交通、基础建设和能源等领域的合作，共同推进“一带一路”建设，共同营造一个由人类共同决定命运的国际社会。此外，我代表伊朗人民以及伊朗伊斯兰议会，伊朗伊斯兰议会将与中国人民代表大会携手合作，共同利用双边优势，为实现“一带一路”建设发挥应有的积极作用。 谢谢大家！

2000年，李光耀在哈佛开展了一场长达两小时的领导力大师课，其价值甚至胜过攻读一个 MBA 学位。

In 1774, Frederick the Great, King of Prussia, issued a royal order commanding his subjects to grow and eat potatoes.... He had watched his people starve through two wars and he knew the potato could feed a nation through almost anything. It grew in poor soil, produced more calories per acre than any grain, and could survive conditions that would destroy a wheat harvest entirely. He was completely right and his subjects wanted nothing to do with it. The town of Kolberg sent back an official written response to their king's royal order that read: "The things have neither smell nor taste, not even the dogs will eat them, so what use are they to us?" This was not a small village grumbling quietly. This was an official municipal response to a direct command from Frederick the Great, one of the most powerful and feared monarchs in Europe, a man who had already threatened to cut the nose and ears off any peasant who refused to plant them. The Prussian peasantry looked at the potato, looked at the king, and sent back a letter telling him the dogs wouldn't eat it. Frederick tried everything. He issued edicts and threatened punishments and distributed free seed potatoes across the kingdom and had his own royal household serve them at every meal to set an example. None of it moved the needle. The Russian Orthodox Church had already declared potatoes unfit for human consumption on the grounds that they were not mentioned in the Bible, and that particular piece of information had traveled. Peasants called them the devil's apple and believed that because they grew underground and resembled the plants of the nightshade family, they were probably poisonous and possibly the work of witches. And there was a saying that had circulated across Prussia for generations that summed up the whole problem perfectly: "Was der Bauer nicht kennt, frisst er nicht." What the peasant doesn't know, he will not eat. So Frederick tried something different. He had a large field of potatoes planted on royal land outside Berlin and then posted his army around it with strict orders to guard the crop day and night, making it visible that something of significant value was growing in that field. He told his soldiers privately to look the other way after dark. Within weeks peasants were sneaking in under cover of night and stealing the royal potatoes, taking them home, and planting them in their own fields. A food they had refused to touch for thirty years suddenly became worth stealing from the king himself because the king had made it clear he valued it enough to guard it with soldiers. The reverse psychology worked completely and within a generation the potato was a staple of Prussian and German cuisine. Frederick died in 1786 and was buried at his palace at Sanssouci in Potsdam. Today if you visit his grave you will find potatoes left there by visitors, small ones, sometimes old and shriveled, placed on the stone as a thank you from the people whose great-great-grandparents stole his crop in the dark. A French soldier named Antoine Parmentier who had been captured by the Prussians during the Seven Years War and had survived on potato rations in captivity later wrote an entire award-winning scientific study arguing that the potato was capable of ending famine across Europe. He is buried in Paris and visitors leave potatoes on his grave too. The two men never met but they are connected by the same vegetable and the same stubborn peasants who refused to eat it until someone convinced them it was worth stealing. What Frederick understood, and what the people of Kolberg did not, was that hunger is patient and pride is not. © Eats History #archaeohistories

@nikstankovic_ A pragmatic approach!

Fair stab. This in response to Serbia getting Chinese "near-hypersonic" (tm) missile, one of the first in Europe, which is terribly behind in this tech. Of course the missile won't be given to Israel, though Serbia sells a lot of artillery shells and MLRS missiles to Israel, while Israel is exporting high-tech drone technology to Serbia (to be announced soon). I don't know what to tell you folks. I don't like this dealing with Israel in time of war with Gaza and Iran, though I do like dealing with China. Vucic also didn't sanction Russia, so Air Serbia can fly through Russia airspace to China, and didn't confiscate Russian property in Serbia, but let it be sold even while being sanctioned by the US for it (and most Serbians thinking he is crazy for it). Though Kremlin is not so hot on Vucic (which is their problem). Vucic also pledging to join the EU, even without a vote or veto, but just economically, to ease the trade friction. Who cares to vote or veto what EUropeans want to do to themselves--can't fix stupid--all that matter is flow of goods, services and people. If you look at it in its totality, the common denominator in all of this is the best interest of Serbia, or as it is popular to say these days, Serbia First. That is why, while it is hard for me to accept this cooperation with Israel (just like every Serbian likely objects to at least ONE thing: Russia or EU or China), I see the pattern. Serbia is a small, (relatively) poor country of 6 million. We can't fix the world. You need to fix yourself. You didn't fix us (fair), but don't blame us for fixing ourselves.

@ABlinken @davidgura @business The even more important force is how hard the Iranian people are fighting the war. Don’t forget about that.

President Trump told CBS today the war with Iran could be over soon. As I told @davidgura at @business last week, two forces will ultimately shape how and when this ends: markets and munitions. Watch the oil, stock, and bond markets. And watch our supply of missiles (offensive and interceptors) and that of our regional partners. Expect a declaration of “victory” that trades one ayatollah for another.

@BasilTheGreat The reason English became the largest & most successful in UK & the world is, its identity is not purely based on some bloodlines, but more of a cultural self-identification. This is similar to the Chinese Han people: it’s cultural and a mixture of all kinds of people in history

Take this in for a moment The Home Secretary of the United Kingdom is on live national television saying English People don't exist She's saying being English is a feeling or something you can take on no matter where in the world you are from We are being ERASED

@historyinmemes Full of ignorance and arrogance! No one will be number one forever! How you treat others, one day they will return everything to you and even more!

This is one of the most ice-cold, ruthless speeches in U.S. history.

They called him too weak to lead. Then he asked one simple question that ended a thirty-year war. Jimmy Carter never matched America's idea of a strong president. He carried his own bags. Wore cardigan sweaters in the Oval Office. Asked people to turn down their thermostats. He taught Sunday school and spoke, in a quiet Georgia drawl, about humility, love, and sacrifice. Washington called him weak. Opponents called him naïve. Late-night hosts turned his decency into a joke. But in September 1978, that same quiet man did what every powerful leader before him had failed to do. He helped end a war that had defined a region for three decades. Since 1948, Egypt and Israel had fought four brutal wars. Thousands were dead. Entire generations grew up knowing nothing but fear and hatred across a shared border. Every attempt at peace collapsed under the weight of history, grief, and pride. The conflict felt permanent. Jimmy Carter refused to believe that. By then, his presidency was already unraveling. Inflation crushed families. Gas lines snaked around city blocks. His approval ratings had fallen through the floor. Advisors begged him not to gamble what little political capital he had left on an impossible dream. Carter ignored them. He invited Egyptian President Anwar Sadat and Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin to Camp David, the secluded presidential retreat in the Maryland mountains. No press. No speeches. No escape. Thirteen days. One mission. He told them plainly: We stay until peace is found—or until every path has truly been exhausted. The talks nearly collapsed immediately. Begin was a Holocaust survivor who had lost most of his family. He believed Israel could never afford weakness again. Sadat had led Egypt through devastating wars. He believed his people deserved an end to endless funerals. They wouldn't sit together. They shouted through messengers. They stormed out of meetings. Carter's own team urged him to end the summit quietly before it destroyed what remained of his presidency. Carter refused. Each night, he walked alone through the woods. He prayed. He wrote letters by hand. He stopped thinking like a politician trying to survive and started thinking like a human being trying to heal something broken. On the eleventh day, Begin announced he was leaving. The talks were over. Carter went to Begin's cabin with a small request: Would he sign a few photographs for Carter's grandchildren? As Begin carefully wrote each child's name, Carter spoke softly. Not about politics. Not about pressure. About legacy. About what remains when power fades. About the stories we tell the children who come after us. Then Carter asked one quiet question: "What will you tell your grandchildren about this moment?" Begin stayed. Two days later, on September 17, 1978, Sadat and Begin signed the Camp David Accords. The Sinai Peninsula was returned to Egypt. Diplomatic relations were established. A framework for peace replaced decades of bloodshed. The border violence stopped. Sadat and Begin received the Nobel Peace Prize. Jimmy Carter did not. Within months, his presidency collapsed under the weight of the Iran hostage crisis. Fifty-two Americans were held for 444 days. Carter refused to sacrifice their lives for political theater or reckless force. History would later honor that restraint—but voters did not. In November 1980, he lost the presidency in a landslide. The hostages were released minutes after Ronald Reagan was sworn in. The story seemed settled: Jimmy Carter, the failed president. But Carter wasn't finished. He returned to Plains, Georgia. To the same modest home. To teaching Sunday school. Then he picked up a hammer and joined Habitat for Humanity—not symbolically, but physically. For decades, he built houses with his own hands, sweating under the sun, climbing ladders into his eighties and nineties. He founded the Carter Center. Fought neglected diseases.Monitored fragile elections. Mediated conflicts others wouldn't touch.

@JDVance Then how can you achieve that by starting this war? You keep fighting until you find where they hide their nuclear weapons/technologies and then bomb it and destroy it?

President Trump will not get the United States into a years-long conflict with no clear objective. Iran can never be allowed to obtain a nuclear weapon. That is the goal of this operation and President Trump will see it through to completion.⁩

These takes about China not intervening in Iran are, quite literally, obscene. I mean, the sheer insanity of a former U.S. ambassador to China publicly taunting China and Russia for not intervening against them - and thereby triggering full-fledged WW3 - is genuinely unhinged. And completely stupid, I might add: these people are so high on their own propaganda that they're mocking nuclear-armed powers for exercising the very restraint that's keeping them alive. Because it IS propaganda: the notion that there exists a so-called "alliance of authoritarianism" has absolutely zero basis in reality. Heck, "authoritarianism" itself has zero basis in reality: it's a purely propaganda term designed to flatten the enormous diversity of non-Western political systems into a single derogatory category. It's the geopolitical equivalent of calling everyone you don't like the same insult - it says nothing about them and everything about your inability, or unwillingness, to understand them. That's often the thing about U.S. propaganda: they invent completely artificial and self-serving concepts like lumping every country they dislike together as an "axis of authoritarians" and then, when said axis doesn't materialize in practice - simply because it actually doesn't exist - they mock these countries for not living up to a fiction they made up. It's true that China is friendly to Iran and that they do not follow Washington's unilateral sanctions against it - because why would they? These are American sanctions, not international law. The actual offense here is independence, the refusal to go along with U.S. aggression. But not being a US vassal is not the same thing as being in a military alliance. The distance between "we trade with whoever we want" and "we'll go to war with the U.S. for you" is absolutely enormous. Confusing the two is the product of a worldview so distorted by U.S. imperialism that any act of independence registers as an act of war. Lastly, let's not forget what's actually happening: the U.S. is bombing a country of 90 million people, killing religious leaders (Ayatollah Khamenei), public servants and diplomats, massacring schoolgirls, etc. And the discourse in Washington - even by the opposition (Burns was in the Biden administration) - isn't about the chaos, death and destruction their country is once more unleashing on a region that they've been destroying for decades (for what result?), coming right on the back of a genocide they sponsored, but it's about point scoring against China, as if not waging war was a character flaw... All in all, this tweet 👇 is actually a perfect encapsulation of how profoundly sociopathic U.S. elites have become: mid-massacre they're taunting others for their lack of bloodlust - against them (!). Which is, when you think about it, an inadvertent confession: you don't expect retaliation for something you truly believe is justified.

@RupertLowe10 You want to restore Britain to which point in history? If you want to make Britain better, then look forward. Looking backward is never a solution to a current problem and there’s no way back either, no matter how hard you try.

It is abundantly clear that there is now one option for the silent patriotic majority. Restore Britain. This is how we get our country back - this is the only way. Join us. restorebritain.org.uk/join_us
