美国总统选举结果已经尘埃落定,前总统特朗普大胜,他不仅赢得所有摇摆州的选举人票,普选票也胜过对手哈里斯。 特朗普誓言带领美国进入黄金时代,弥合国家伤口。他在竞选期间公布的政策包括大规模驱逐移民,对中国商品加征关税至60%,对其他国家商品征税10%至20%,而且要欧洲盟友和台湾支付更多“保护费”。 评论人担忧,美国将走回历史上的孤立时代。这会对世界带来什么影响?中国又会如何迎接特朗普治下的“黄金美国”? 这期的早报播客《东谈西论》,听主持人韩咏红与清华大学战略与安全研究中心主任、国际关系学系教授达巍解析特朗普再次当选美国总统对世界的影响。 延伸阅读: 吴汉钧:特朗普能否带领美国进入黄金时代? 韩咏红:特朗普2.0给中国的危机与机遇 Donald Trump achieved a significant victory in the US election, securing not only the electoral votes of key swing states but also leading his opponent Kamala Harris in the popular vote. Trump vowed to lead America into a “golden age” while addressing national healing. His proposed policies include imposing a 60% tariff on imports from China and a 10% tariff on goods from other countries, alongside demands for increased financial contributions from U.S. allies in exchange for security guarantees. Concerns about a potential shift towards a more isolationist stance under Trump's leadership have been raised, particularly regarding how this might affect global alliances and relations with China. These developments prompt discussions about their implications for international security dynamics. In this episode of Global Heartbeat podcast, host Han Yonghong discusses these issues with Professor Da Wei, Director of the Centre for International Security and Strategy at Tsinghua University.

美国民主党总统候选人哈里斯的选情告急。 在刚过去的周末,前总统奥巴马夫人米歇尔亲自下场到关键摇摆州密歇根州,为哈里斯站台助选。米歇尔充满爆发力的演讲让全场气氛燃爆。 另一方面,特朗普在纽约市举行了大型造势晚会,现场挤得水泄不通,有的支持者还连夜在会场外扎营。特朗普在致辞时,呼吁支持者将哈里斯赶出白宫。 距离投票日只剩下一个星期,两位候选人哈里斯和特朗普的选情依然高度胶着。但多份最新民调显示,特朗普的当选几率正在赶超哈里斯。 这期的早报播客《东谈西论》,听主持人韩咏红与美国德州山姆休士顿州立大学政治系副教授翁履中解析特朗普真的要回来了吗?他会给美国和世界带来什么?在如此激烈的选举后,美国能否实现政权的和平交接? 延伸阅读: 国际特稿:经济课题主导美国选情 选民手中一票投给三餐温饱 韩咏红:美国总统大选是什么在摇摆? The US presidential election is down to the wire, with Donald Trump and Kamala Harris locked in a tight race.  As the clock ticks down to Election Day, both candidates are pulling out all the stops.  Former First Lady Michelle Obama energised Harris supporters in the crucial swing state of Michigan with a rousing speech.

韩国情报部门上周公布情报称,朝鲜已经决定向乌克兰战场派遣包括特种部队在内的12,000名兵力,参与俄罗斯与乌克兰的战争。 韩国国情院称,今年8月,首批1,500多名朝鲜特种部队已被送往俄罗斯的符拉迪沃斯托克,也就是中国所称的海参崴。 另一方面,乌克兰总统泽连斯基上周告诉媒体,根据他们的情报,朝鲜已经派遣技术人员和军官前往乌克兰被分裂的地区。他也表示,朝鲜准备派遣1万名兵力到战场,这相当于第二个国家正式加入了对乌克兰的战争。自从乌克兰战争爆发以来,朝鲜一直向俄罗斯提供炮弹、导弹和其他武器援助,但尚未大规模派遣军队参战。 朝鲜这次真的准备派兵到前线了吗?如果属实,朝鲜的意图和目的是什么? 这期的早报播客《东谈西论》,听主持人韩咏红与《联合早报》驻北京的记者于泽远详细解析朝鲜的加入将如何影响俄乌战争的局势,乃至东北亚的和平。 Reports of North Korea's potential involvement in the Ukraine war have sent ripples through the international community. South Korean intelligence claims Pyongyang is preparing to send up to 12,000 troops, including special forces, to aid Russia. This claim, while unverified, alleges that an initial contingent of over 1,500 soldiers has already arrived in Vladivostok. The situation has raised alarms, with Ukrainian President Zelensky concerned about another nation entering the fray. The emergence of unverified videos purportedly showing North Korean soldiers receiving equipment from Russian troops has further fueled speculation.  This development raises critical questions about North Korea's motivations and strategic intentions. The potential consequences of North Korean involvement are far-reaching. It could escalate the conflict, destabilise the region, and exacerbate existing geopolitical tensions, especially in Northeast Asia. In this episode of Global Heartbeat podcast, join host Han Yonghong and Lianhe Zaobao's China News Copy Editor Yu Zeyuan as they explore the potential implications of North Korea’s military involvement in the Russia-Ukraine war.

以色列与哈马斯冲突爆发一周年, 加沙地带的暴力冲突仍未消停,以色列的北方邻国黎巴嫩也卷入了战火。  根据联合国的评估,在一个月内,以色列的攻击已经造成黎巴嫩北部2000人死亡,超过百万人流离失所。 美国、法国以及黎巴嫩的看守政府一直在努力促成停火协议,但都徒劳无功。 以色列总理内坦亚胡在10月6日宣称,以色列目前正同时在七条战线上作战。这些战线涉及不同地点或对象,分别是:加沙的哈马斯、黎巴嫩的真主党、也门的胡塞武装、叙利亚、伊拉克,约旦河西岸的抵抗组织,以及伊朗。 多线作战让以色列国内也遭受攻击,但以色列的军事行动为何仍在继续?国际社会,包括多个大国,都拿以色列没办法。 这期的早报播客《东谈西论》,听主持人韩咏红和中国著名国际战略专家、中国人民大学国际关系学院退休教授时殷弘详细解析中东战火持续,遭到多国谴责的内坦亚胡到底是赢了,还是输了? 延伸阅读: 陈留俊:以色列的“十月冒险”? 【东谈西论】中东战争扩大 倒计时开始? One year after the October 7 attacks, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that his country is now fighting on seven fronts. He listed the battlegrounds as Iran, Hamas in Gaza, Hezbollah in Lebanon, the Houthis in Yemen, Shia militants in Iraq, militant groups in Syria as well as Palestinian fighters in the West Bank.  Despite international efforts to broker a ceasefire, a resolution remains elusive. This multi-pronged approach, while presented as necessary by Netanyahu, has drawn international criticism and raised questions about its long-term effectiveness. Is Netanyahu's strategy a calculated gamble for security, or a dangerous escalation that could spiral out of control?   In this episode of Global Heartbeat podcast, join host Han Yong Hong and Shi Yinhong, a professor of international relations at Renmin University of China, as they discuss the complex dynamics of Middle Eastern geopolitics as well as the implications of Netanyahu's military and political manoeuvres.

在以色列2023年10月7日遭哈马斯突袭一周年的前夕,以色列在刚过去的周末扩大了对黎巴嫩首都贝鲁特南部的攻势。 战火给处于经济崩溃状态的黎巴嫩人民带来了更大的痛苦。超过100万人流离失所,逃离家园。过去一年间,以色列除了在加沙地带发动持续性的猛烈攻击,也打击了中东地区的敌对力量。这包括以色列在今年7月暗杀了前往伊朗出席新总统就职仪式的哈马斯领导人哈尼亚,9月又通过传呼机和对讲机爆炸袭击,造成数十名黎巴嫩真主党人死亡,数千人受伤。随后,以色列使用了八十余枚钻地弹,炸死了真主党最高领导纳斯鲁拉,并随后对黎巴嫩发起了地面进攻。 伊朗也展开了报复行动。上个星期二,伊朗向以色列发射了180多枚导弹,击中了两座以色列空军基地。 如今,中东地区多处战火纷飞,以色列在多线作战,它的最终目标是什么?它会攻击伊朗的核设施吗? 这期的早报播客《东谈西论》,听主持人韩咏红和台湾中兴大学国际政治研究所所长崔進揆解析中东战争全面扩大的倒计时是否已经开始? 延伸阅读: 国际特稿:以哈战火延绵中东 一年灰烬覆盖和平 社论:以色列多线开火 中东和局无解 Tensions in the Middle East are reaching a boiling point as Israel marks the first anniversary of the October 7 Hamas attack. Over the past year, Israel has intensified its military actions in Gaza and Lebanon, further straining the already dire humanitarian situation. With more than a million people displaced in Lebanon, the region faces mounting challenges. Speculation is rife about Israel's intentions, particularly concerning Iran's nuclear facilities, raising questions about the potential for a broader conflict.  In this episode of Global Heartbeat podcast, join host Han Yong Hong and guest Chin-Kuei Tsui, Associate Professor at Graduate Institute of International Politics (GIIP), National Chung Hsing University, as they analyse the escalating Middle East crisis.   Hosted by Lianhe Zaobao’s Associate Editor, Han Yong Hong, Global Heartbeat is a Mandarin weekly news and current affairs podcast that is updated every Tuesday, 7.00 PM SGT.

中国三大金融监管机构上星期二突然联合召开记者会,公布了一系列救市措施,包括降准、降息、下调房地产贷款利率、将房贷首付比率下降至15%。这等于向市场释放1万亿元人民币的流动性。 中国央行行长潘功胜在记者会上还宣布,将推出两项政策工具来释放流动性并提振股市。这两项政策工具共计会对市场释放8000亿人民币,而且还只是首期。中国股市、香港股市应声大涨,并带动亚太和欧洲股市上扬。 到了星期四,中共中央政治局再开会部署经济工作,要求保证必要的财政支出、实施有力度的降息、促进房地产市场止跌回稳。国际投资者为之振奋,著名对冲基金经理 David Tepper公开表示他已全面加仓。 在冠病疫情结束后,中国经济并没有出现预期的报复性反弹,反而面临越来越大的挑战。尽管经济学家一直在呼吁中国政府采取更为有力的救市措施,但当局的行动被形容为“挤牙膏”。这一次,中国政府终于启动了大规模救市的扳机吗?这是否算是大水漫灌? 这期的早报播客《东谈西论》,听主持人韩咏红和新加坡华侨银行亚洲地区研究与策略主管谢栋铭解析中国推出的新一轮政策将会对中国经济产生什么影响? 延伸阅读: 杨丹旭:中国央行放大招能否力挽狂澜? 陈婧:楼市终于要止跌了? China has surprised markets with a series of aggressive monetary easing measures aimed at reviving its flagging economy.  The country's central bank announced a cut to the reserve requirement ratio for banks, injecting billions into the financial system.  Additionally, lending and mortgage interest rates will be lowered, and further stimulus measures are on the horizon.  This comes after China's post-pandemic recovery fell short of expectations, prompting calls for more decisive government action. The announcements led to significant gains in China's stock market, which also positively impacted the Hong Kong, Asia-Pacific, and European markets.  While some investors are expressing renewed confidence, the long-term impact of these measures remains to be seen.  In this episode of Global Heartbeat podcast, join host Han Yong Hong and guest Tommy Xie, Head of Greater China Research & Strategy at OCBC Bank, as they analyse these developments and discuss whether China has finally pulled the trigger on a large-scale economic rescue plan.   Hosted by Lianhe Zaobao’s Associate Editor, Han Yong Hong, Global Heartbeat is a Mandarin weekly news and current affairs podcast that is updated every Tuesday, 7.00 PM SGT.
