中国外长王毅与美国国务卿鲁比奥通电话指出，台湾问题牵一发动全身，希望美国务必慎之又慎对待涉台事务。

据中国外交部官网，王毅星期二（6月30日）同鲁比奥通电话时说，中国国家主席习近平与美国总统特朗普今年5月在北京达成构建中美建设性战略稳定关系等一系列重要共识，为未来三年乃至更长时间的中美关系作出战略指引、明确发展方向。

王毅说，构建建设性战略稳定关系是两国民心所向、国际社会所盼，也是中美根本利益之所系。双方应排除干扰，克服障碍，沿着这一正确方向坚定走下去。

王毅指出，双方应始终秉持平等、尊重、互惠的精神，将两国元首的重要共识转化为具体的政策和切实的举措。

他强调，构建建设性战略稳定关系不是一句口号，需要付诸行动，相向而行，久久为功。

为此，双方要拉长合作清单，打造更多积极议程，同时压缩问题清单，管控各种风险隐患。就此王毅特别提到，“台湾问题牵一发动全身，希望美方务必慎之又慎对待涉台事务”。

中国外交部新闻稿称，双方一致认为，两国外长此次通话是积极、建设性的，同意共同落实好两国元首达成的重要共识，继续以灵活方式保持沟通。

习近平与特朗普此前于5月中旬在北京举行会晤，随后特朗普邀请习近平9月24日访美。

Melat Kiros becomes 28th far-left candidate to win a Democratic primary this year as socialists amass power

Kiros, backed by far-left groups, could help form a 43-member progressive bloc by January 2027

July 1, 2026 11:25am EDT / Fox News

Following a primary victory where Democratic socialist Melat Kiros unseated longtime establishment Rep. Diana DeGette in Denver, political analyst Tom Del Beccaro weighed in on the expanding progressive insurgency that is aggressively targeting moderate Dems nationwide.

Melat Kiros has become the 28th candidate endorsed by a far-left group to win a Democratic primary election this cycle, according to a Fox News review.

The 29-year-old Democratic socialist is now in the same company as Graham Platner, the scandal-plagued Democratic Senate nominee in Maine, as well as the trio of Zohran Mamdani-backed House nominees — Brad Lander, Claire Valdez, and Darializa Avila Chevalier.

Kiros ran for Colorado’s 1st congressional district and was supported by the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), the Working Families Party (WFP) and the Justice Democrats.

Although not all 25 far-left House candidates who won Democratic primaries this year are guaranteed to win their general election bids in November, many of them, including Kiros, are in solidly blue districts where Republican challengers have little chance of being successful.

If all the far-left House candidates tracked by Fox News were to win, they’d join another 18 like-minded colleagues, including Rep. Pramila Jayapal, D-Wash., Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., and Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich.

In the best case scenario for the far left, they’d have a 43-member bloc in the House of Representatives come January 2027.

Seeing as there are just 10 Blue Dog Democrats, a left-wing sweep would substantially tip the balance of power in the Democratic Party, which is favored to retake the House majority next year.

The Blue Dog Caucus is a coalition of House Democrats who describe themselves as fiscally responsible and focused on bipartisan dealmaking. They also support a strong national defense.

With her victory on Tuesday, Kiros also became the sixth insurgent candidate this year to oust an incumbent.

Kiros defeated Rep. Diana DeGette, who served 15 terms in Congress, by a nearly 10-point margin, according to The Associated Press. DeGette was sworn into the House in January 1997, four months before Kiros was born.

DeGette supported abolishing Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and implementing Medicare-for-All, two key priorities of her opponent and leftists at large.

Largely aligned on domestic policy priorities, Kiros and DeGette diverged on the issue of Israel.

DeGette is a strong supporter of the Jewish nation and has also advocated for a two-state solution. Kiros took a harsher stance, accusing Israel of committing a genocide against Palestinians in Gaza.

Kiros, who supports a full U.S. arms embargo on Israel, criticized DeGette for backing continued U.S. military aid to the country, including funding for defensive systems like the Iron Dome.

Kiros’s other foreign policy ideas have drawn significant criticism, including her view that the U.S. shares culpability in the horrific 9/11 terror attacks.

9News journalist Kyle Clark asked Kiros in a June 22 interview whether she believed 9/11 was an “inevitable consequence” of American intervention.

“Inevitable in the sense that we destabilized a lot of the Middle East, which led people to believe that another act of violence was the only response. And again, just like I said before, our responsibility is to get rid of those conditions that lead to violence in the first place,” Kiros said.

Before her campaign, Kiros was fired from her position at the Sidley Austin law firm in 2023 after publishing an open letter criticizing law firms, including her own, that called for action against antisemitism on college campuses.

南非反移民组织逼无证移民离境 当局多地布警防暴力

南非反移民情绪近日升温，一些反移民民间组织单方面要求无证外国人在6月30日前离境，引发外界担心排外暴力扩大。为防止重演2008年造成62人死亡的反移民骚乱，南非当局星期二在全国多个城镇和城市部署警力戒备。

英国《卫报》报道，在南非经济中心约翰内斯堡，安全人员在中央商务区巡逻；当地媒体报道，南非国防军车辆等装备也出现在现场。在紧张气氛下，许多店主星期二（6月30日）都选择不开门营业。

这场抗议由“March and March”等反移民民间组织发起。组织者单方面要求无证外国人在6月30日前离境，他们虽坚称示威将和平进行，但在过去数周，约翰内斯堡和德班等地排外情绪持续升温。

多名男子被指手持棍棒，高喊祖鲁语和科萨语中意为“他们必须离开”的口号，甚至逐家商店盘查移民，一些移民还遭殴打。

南非邻国、莫桑比克政府称，已有五名本国公民在南非遇害；部分持合法证件的外国人也投诉遭针对性骚扰。

尼日利亚、加纳、马拉维和乌干达等国已在期限前安排数百名公民回国。南非6200万人口中，外国出生人口估计约占4%，但在高失业率和贫富悬殊背景下，非洲移民常被当作经济困境和治安问题的“替罪羊”。

太平洋岛国帕劳接收首名美国遣返移民

2026年7月1日 20:53 / 联合早报

太平洋岛国帕劳政府证实，美国已开始将移民遣送到帕劳安置。根据美帕之间一项具争议的协议，首名被遣返者已抵达当地，但他在帕劳停留约两周后，决定不再留下。

法新社星期三（7月1日）报道，帕劳位于菲律宾以东约800公里，由珊瑚环礁和火山岛组成，是全球人口最少的国家之一。美国总统特朗普一直推动将寻求庇护者和无证移民驱逐出境，并将他们送往萨尔瓦多、乌干达等地。

帕劳去年12月与美国达成协议，同意接收最多75名被美方遣返者，以换取美国750万美元（约972万新元）资金，用于满足当地公共服务和基础设施需求。

帕劳总统惠普斯（Surangel Whipps）办公室说，首名被遣返者5月下旬抵达靠近主要聚居地科罗尔的国际机场。当局把他带到临时住所，并协助他开通手机、安顿下来；但这名男子大约两周后决定不留在帕劳。目前外界仍不清楚他为何被遣返，以及离开帕劳后去了哪里。

根据协议，所有被遣返者必须没有犯罪记录，帕劳也对接收对象拥有完全否决权。这些人原本被期望在帕劳定居并寻找工作。

惠普斯此前称，这项协议对帕劳和美国是“双赢”。但批评者指责美国把帕劳等国家当成安置美国不愿接收移民的“倾倒场”。

人口约2万人的帕劳于1994年独立，长期以来是美国在太平洋地区最亲密的盟友之一，也是目前台湾的12个友邦之一。

亚洲人进门脱鞋有道理 实验发现鞋底藏致病细菌

2026年7月1日 21:21 / 新明日报

实验发现，鞋底可能带有金黄色葡萄球菌等致病细菌，并可在家中存活数天，因此进屋脱鞋有助减少病菌被带入室内。 （示意图/iStock）

在许多亚洲家庭，进门脱鞋是再自然不过的事；但在欧美一些家庭，穿着鞋进屋也很常见。这个看似普通的生活习惯差异，最近被英国广播公司（BBC）拿到实验室做了检测。结果发现，鞋底可能带着致病细菌，让人忍不住感叹：“比我想象中脏多了。”

BBC 近日前往英国布莱顿大学的微生物实验室，请微生物学家皮特（Sarah Pitt）检测一双穿过的鞋。皮特用棉签分别在鞋面和鞋底取样，再把样本涂到琼脂培养皿中。24小时后，培养皿里长出了不少细菌，其中就包括金黄色葡萄球菌（Staphylococcus aureus）。

皮特说，金黄色葡萄球菌可能相当危险。即使是健康人，如果皮肤有抓伤，细菌进入伤口，也可能引发脓肿或化脓性感染；它还可能导致肺炎等严重感染，并在免疫功能较弱者身上造成血液感染。

据报，进屋该不该脱鞋的问题，在不同地区和互联网上都引发分歧。美国女子索菲亚和塞尔维亚丈夫佩贾此前就在社交媒体上分享过两人对此的不同看法。索菲亚觉得进屋脱鞋很奇怪，佩贾则说，自己从小在家就是要脱鞋的。

皮特指出，鞋上发现的细菌可能在家中存活一段时间，甚至长达数天，并有机会感染家中其他人；地毯这类安全、温暖的环境尤其有利于细菌停留。她也提醒，世界各地还可能存在不同细菌、真菌和寄生虫，因此建议不论身处何地，进屋后都应尽快脱鞋。

Soros network targets deep-red Mississippi in bid to flip Senate seat

Mississippians haven’t elected a Democrat to the Senate in nearly four decades, but powerful backers of the Magnolia State’s underdog candidate believe that by dumping money into the race they can overcome the hump.

Scott Colom, a district attorney, is squaring off against incumbent Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith, R-Miss., in deep-red Mississippi, and some of his top backers, including billionaire philanthropist George Soros’ top advisor, believe that he is primed to flip the seat.

During a call earlier this month with Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., former Rep. Joe Kennedy, D-Mass., and Soros’ top advisor, Michael Vachon, Colom’s backers laid out his path forward.

“Scott can win in Mississippi,” Vachon said on the call. “The conditions are right in a way that they’ve never been before at the national level and at the local level. He’s a great candidate running against a very weak candidate, and people across the country are angry about the state of the nation.”

Vachon contended that there was one key hurdle for Colom, “Not enough people know who he is and that he’s running.”

“Once people know who he is and know his story and know he’s running, then they want to vote for him,” he said. “And, you know, what stands in the way of that name recognition, honestly, is money, right?”

According to filings from the Federal Election Commission, members of the Soros family have donated nearly $30,000 to Colom’s campaign this cycle.

“This comes as no surprise,” Nathan Calvert, Hyde-Smith’s communications director, said. “Scott Colom has always relied on the backing of out-of-state liberal elites, and now George Soros’ political network and Elizabeth Warren are openly treating Mississippi as the next stepping stone to enacting their radical national agenda.”

Money from Soros also colored Colom and Hyde-Smith’s first clash, where the lawmaker torpedoed his nomination to serve as a district court judge in Mississippi under the Biden administration.

At the time, she used the veto power each home-state senator has, known as a blue slip in the upper chamber, to weigh in on a judicial nominee — it’s a tradition that President Donald Trump has demanded be done away with to nullify Democratic resistance to his own judicial nominees.

Colom argued that his record as district attorney was “proof of how I make decisions: based on the evidence and the law, not based on who’s writing the checks.”

“I’m running a grassroots campaign powered by Mississippians, and the only voices I will ever listen to are theirs, not those of donors or special interests,” Colom said. “That’s the difference between me and Cindy Hyde-Smith, who answers to whoever cuts her the biggest check, while Mississippians pay the price.”

“Just ask the fertilizer companies under federal investigation, who gave to her campaign while Mississippi farmers are paying more for fertilizer,” he continued.

Indeed, Hyde-Smith has received $14,000 in donations from fertilizer industry donors since 2018, including $11,000 from Koch Industries and $3,000 from Nutrien, both of which are under federal investigation for allegedly inflating fertilizer prices.

Meanwhile, Warren painted her vision of what a Democratic majority in the Senate could look like, aided in part by a hopeful Colom victory in November.

“I know you’ve already talked about other things we can do here, but we need to deliver by passing the John Lewis Voting Rights Act — guarantee the right to get your vote counted,” Warren said on the call, “ending gerrymandering anywhere in the United States, and, my own personal favorite, it’s time for D.C. statehood.”

消息：阿曼向美提交海峡收费提案 倡议航运公司自愿缴“服务费”

2026年7月1日 22:01 / 联合早报

（纽约/伦敦综合讯）尽管美国多次公开反对，伊朗与阿曼仍继续推进向穿越霍尔木兹海峡的船只收费的讨论。美国媒体披露，阿曼已就此向美国及其他西方盟友提交正式提案。

《纽约时报》周二（6月30日）引述伊朗官员与四名知情外交官称，这项提案要求航运公司为使用霍尔木兹海峡支付服务费。

一名地区外交官透露，这份提案部分借鉴了马六甲海峡和新加坡海峡的安排，主张由航运公司自愿支付“服务费”，而非强制征收“通行费”。

在国际海事组织支持下，新加坡、马来西亚、印度尼西亚及其他主要捐助国和组织于2007年联合设立航行支援基金（Aids to Navigation Fund），通过航运公司自愿捐款，资助关键助航设施的维护，保障马六甲海峡和新加坡海峡的通航安全。

一名熟悉美国立场的消息人士确认，阿曼在提案中提出的是自愿付费机制，但伊朗官员则称，相关收费是强制的。

据悉，美国对提案内容存有疑虑，计划与阿曼官员进一步磋商。目前尚不清楚，特朗普政府是否会接受在海峡实施自愿付费制。

根据美伊此前签署的谅解备忘录，在双方为期60天的最终协议谈判期间，船只可免费且安全通过霍尔木兹海峡，而后伊朗须与对岸的阿曼就海峡之后的管理展开对话。

伊朗副外长加里巴巴迪周一（29日）说，伊朗希望同阿曼达成协议，但若阿曼不愿制定合作管理海峡的框架，伊朗将单独推进。

阿曼外长巴德尔则已表明，阿曼不支持对过境海峡的船只征收通行费，并认为这是违法之举。不过，他并未排除征收服务费的可能，称维持海峡安全、避免海域污染，以及应对航运紧急情况，“无疑都需要资金”。

阿曼一向奉行中立政策。自战争爆发以来，它一直试图平衡与盟友美国和邻国伊朗之间的关系，并充当冲突调解方。今年5月传出阿曼与伊朗探讨可能向通过海峡的船只收费后，特朗普曾发文警告阿曼，若不守规矩就会被“炸飞”。

阿拉伯波斯湾国家研究所非常驻研究员雅各布斯（Anna Jacobs）接受《纽约时报》访问时指出，霍尔木兹海峡未来如何发展，对阿曼而言是迫切的国家安全议题。“他们正以更长远的眼光看待这场冲突和地区安全，并专注于如何让伊朗继续留在谈判桌上。”

另据英国《电讯报》报道，在美国信誉持续下降之际，波斯湾国家正在调整与伊朗关系的新常态。

目前，波斯湾国家的公开表态虽与美国保持一致，反对在霍尔木兹海峡收费，但外交官与专家认为，伊朗不会放弃海峡这张“终极王牌”，波斯湾国家有必要对美伊谈判的可能结果持务实态度。

华盛顿智库中东研究所高级研究员托尔（Gonul Tol）说：“美国信誉已大幅下降，这种情况持续了多年。波斯湾国家的想法是，我们只能自己与伊朗达成协议。”

美伊签署初步协议后，波斯湾各国纷纷安排与伊朗进行直接双边会谈，磋商海峡管理问题。与此同时，沙特预计将在更广泛的地区安全会谈中发挥主导作用。这凸显波斯湾地区正摆脱长期依赖美国主导防务的的局面。

今年5月，科威特建立了向土耳其购买无人机和防空系统的国防采购框架。沙特、卡塔尔与阿联酋近期也同乌克兰签署无人机采购协议。沙特还与巴基斯坦、埃及和土耳其组成四方安全协调机制。

分析人士认为，伊朗仍将这些国家视为潜在打击目标。在此背景下，波斯湾国家虽不会直接要求美国从该地区撤军，但会积极制定替代方案，以防美国未来无法兑现安全保障与防御承诺。

Sony to stop making physical discs for PlayStation starting in 2028

July 1, 2026 / 11:41 AM EDT / CBS News
By Mary Cunningham

Sony is discontinuing physical discs for its PlayStation video game consoles and going fully digital starting in January 2028, the consumer electronics company said on Wednesday.

After physical disk production ends, new games will be available exclusively in digital format from the PlayStation Store, an online shop for PlayStation games, and at retailers. The change will not affect games that have already been released on disc or those that will be released before January 2028, Sony said.

“This is a natural direction for Sony Interactive Entertainment to adapt to consumer trends as the general preference for digital media significantly outpaces physical discs,” Sony said in a statement. “This transition will enable us to align more closely with how most of our community prefers to access and play games today.”

Sony, originally named Tokyo Tsushin Kogyo K.K, was founded in 1946 in Japan. The technology company produced the first PlayStation in 1994, a gray console equipped with a CD-ROM drive. The company has released several PlayStation generations since then, with the PlayStation 5 being the most recent model.

The announcement comes ahead of the digital-only release of Grand Theft Auto VI, commonly referred to as GTA 6, which analysts expect will be the most lucrative entertainment industry launch ever.

Fans have been waiting for the game for over a decade, as its most recent version, GTA 5, was released in 2013. The launch date for GTA 6 has already been punted a few times, with the game now expected to be released on Nov. 19.

As digital offerings increase, many consumers are moving away from physical media. Video game players spent $1.5 billion in 2025 on new physical video games, the lowest amount since market research firm Circana began tracking the metric in 1995, according to Mat Piscatella, the senior director and video game industry advisor at Circana.

Spending on physical games peaked at $11.6 billion in 2008, Piscatella said.
