（德国之声中文网）香港报人以及民主运动支持者黎智英被香港法庭宣判罪名成立，他可能面临终身监禁，现年已经78岁的黎智英甚至有可能会在监狱中度过余生。 《新苏黎世报》写道，黎智英捍卫新闻自由，并支持香港的民主运动，这也是导致他今天境遇的最终原因。这篇题为《黎智英面临终身监禁》的文章回顾了黎智英12岁时因不堪忍受中国大陆的贫困生活逃亡香港，并在香港一路打拼成为成功企业家的经过。89年六四事件发生后，黎智英开始投身媒体与民主运动，也因此得罪了北京当局。文章写道：
“2019年，黎智英《苹果日报》的记者们在大量报道中公开支持香港示威者。2020年夏天，就在国安法实施后不久，执法部门逮捕了黎智英。警方随后搜查了《苹果日报》编辑部。2021年年中，该报被迫停刊，在报纸发行的最后一天，一百万份《苹果日报》数小时内就被抢购一空。
多年来，黎智英一直同美国有着密切联络。2019年香港抗议活动期间，黎智英会晤了美国前副总统彭斯和前国务卿蓬佩奥。会谈中，黎智英呼吁美国对香港民主运动提供支持。黎智英的儿子同现任美国副总统万斯关系密切。万斯本人也多次呼吁立即释放黎智英。据报道，今年十月底釜山峰会期间，美国总统特朗普和中国国家主席习近平也谈到了这位著名囚犯的未来。
外交圈此前曾多次传出消息称，香港当局将考虑准许黎智英因健康原因前往英国。黎智英持有英国护照。黎智英的女儿Claire也曾公开表示，父亲在狱中体重急剧下降。
“现在对黎智英的判决，可能是当局对香港所剩无几的反对派力量发出的强硬信号”
但过去几周香港民间对政府的强烈批评，可能最终导致了当局重判黎智英，而不是让他出境治疗。许多香港人批评称，政府应对11月底造成150多人死亡的高层住宅火灾事件承担部分责任。民众认为，负责消防与建筑安全的政府部分没有尽到职责。
火灾事件发生后，最初的抗议苗头已经被政府扼杀在萌芽状态。而现在对黎智英的判决，也很可能是当局对香港所剩无几的反对派力量发出的强硬信号，也就是所谓的‘杀鸡儆猴’。”
《新苏黎世报》的报道称，现在的香港政府已经容不得任何批评声音。对于那些敢于大胆发声的人，香港政府则以从北京学来的手段加以对付，直到相关人士噤声为止：
“2019年的抗议活动之后，香港政府不断收紧政治自由的空间。现在，只有北京定义的‘爱国者’才能参与立法会竞选。昔日强大的反对派力量实际已经不复存在。
今年夏季，在政府的压力下，社民连宣布解散。而本周日，最后一个反对党‘民主党’也在北京的压力下宣布停止运作。一些党员表示，中国政府代表或联络人向他们发出了解散该党的要求。
香港的新闻自由也同样遭受重创。记者无疆界组织发布的排行榜上，香港的排名已经降至140名。2003年香港的新闻自由全球排名还曾是第18名。”
“笼罩在恐惧氛围下的香港”
就香港报人黎智英被判有罪以及香港民主党宣布“自行解散”，《科隆城市报》以《恐惧笼罩下的香港》为题发表评论写道：
“这简直是无法想象的荒诞：一个为民主权利和法治奋斗了三十多年的政党竟然被迫自掘坟墓，而在葬礼上他们甚至不敢说出凶手是谁。
那些胆敢对北京中央政府提出批评的人，最终将会面临怎样的命运，黎智英就是一个鲜明的例证。这位78岁的老人一生跌宕起伏。1989年天安门民主运动遭到血腥镇压时，黎智英开始投身政治和媒体，他奋笔疾书，对抗中国共产党的压迫政策。直到最后一刻，黎智英都拒绝妥协，这也是他身陷囹圄的原因。他的儿子Sebastien表示，父亲被关押以来，健康状况正在急剧恶化。
欧洲也应密切关注黎智英的命运，因为他也是一名英国公民。他之所以被关押，是因为他曾发表了大量批评北京政府的文章，而德语报刊不是也每天都在发表批评性文章吗。鉴于香港的国安法也明确适用于外国人，也就是说，驻金融中心香港的欧洲记者们也不应对自己的安全掉以轻心了。”

法国外交官表示，深知由于殖民历史原因和与柬埔寨的密切联系，法国在斡旋中有一定敏感性。但法国强调保持立场中立。
面对柬埔寨和泰国之间冲突陷入僵局的风险，法国正加大力度推动两国停火。一位外交消息人士周五表示，未来几天将进行“政治层面的接触”。
法新社引述消息人士称，法国外长让-诺埃尔·巴罗将于12月23日与柬埔寨和泰国外交部长进行会谈，随后他将与越南外交部长进行会谈。该消息人士补充道：法国外长“还计划近期与马来西亚外交部长进行交流。”
这些会谈将在东南亚国家联盟（东盟）外长会议的次日举行，该会议目前由马来西亚主持。
在包括美国在内的国家调解努力失败后，巴黎希望此次会议能在该议题上取得进展。
这位法国外交人士解释道：现在“局势存在严重升级的风险。我们认为有必要在寻求和平解决方案方面加大力度”。
法国外交官们“深知法国因其作为前殖民强国的历史地位以及与这些国家（特别是柬埔寨）的密切联系，在所扮演的调停角色方面存在一定敏感性”。但这位人士强调：“从根本上说，我们的立场是不偏不倚保持公正”。
“但公正不应等同于消极。我们认为自己负有责任”，因为国际社会正在目睹泰柬两国边境的大规模人口迁移。
除了呼吁立即停火和遵守国际法外，法国还希望能够促进双方的交流。
这两个东南亚王国长期以来一直就边境沿线的部分领土存在争议。
本周，欧盟外交事务负责人卡雅·卡拉斯与泰国和柬埔寨外交部长举行了会谈，试图“打破冲突循环升级”。
当地官员周六表示，一列客运列车在印度东北部撞上一群大象，造成七头大象当场死亡，所幸没有乘客死伤。
法新社12月20日新德里消息，这次事故发生在阿萨姆邦。在印度大约2万2000头野生大象中，有4000多头栖息在这个邦。
阿萨姆邦的高级警官V·V·拉凯什·雷迪告诉法新社，七头大象被撞身亡，还有一头受伤。 这是一列从偏远的米佐拉姆邦开往新德里的列车，有五节车厢脱轨。
据印度铁路发言人卡平贾尔·基肖尔·夏尔马解释，当局已对指定为大象通道的路段实施限速，但此次事故发生在这些限速区域之外。
他说：“火车司机看到象群后，立即启动了紧急刹车。但这并没有阻止火车撞上大象”。
法新社说，森林砍伐和栖息地附近的建设项目增加迫使大象为了觅食而冒险前往更远的地方，这导致它们与人类的冲突日益增多。
根据印度议会的统计，2023年和2024年，印度共有629人死于大象袭击。
US Department of JusticeA photo of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor lying on the laps of women is among the thousands of Epstein files which have been released by the US Department of Justice.
In the picture, convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell hovers in the background smiling at the former prince. The photo appears to have been taken in the saloon room at Sandringham, the royal estate in Norfolk.
The emergence of the photo will add to scrutiny on Mr Mountbatten-Windsor, after he was stripped of his remaining titles and honours over his links to the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
Andrew has always denied any wrongdoing.
Two of the photos also show Andrew's ex-wife, Sarah Ferguson, in the company of women whose faces are covered by black squares.
BBC News has approached Ms Ferguson's representatives for comment.
Simply appearing in the photos or documents is not evidence of wrongdoing.
US Department of JusticeThe heavily-redacted tranche of some of the so-called Epstein files - the long-awaited documents relating to the US Department of Justice's investigations into Epstein - were released on Friday night.
The documents were highly anticipated after Congress passed a law mandating the files be released in their entirety by 19 December.
They contain photos of the interiors of Epstein's homes, his overseas travels and celebrities including US President Bill Clinton, Mr Mountbatten-Windsor and Michael Jackson. President Donald Trump was hardly mentioned in the files.
Many of those identified in other releases, including President Trump, have denied any wrongdoing in relation to Epstein.
In the undated picture of Andrew, the former prince - now 65 - looks much younger. He is smiling with his eyes closed.
The faces of the women, who are sitting in front of a grand fireplace, have been redacted with black squares. The photo appears to be at Sandringham, King Charles's private estate in Norfolk.
In another picture, he appears to be at Royal Ascot with Epstein and Maxwell.
US Department of JusticeAlso among the files are undated photos of Maxwell standing outside the door of 10 Downing Street.
In the picture she is alone and no context was provided with the photo about why she is there or when the image was taken.
US Department of JusticeThe issue over Andrew’s friendship with Epstein has continued to dog the royals.
The King stripped his younger brother of his prince title following weeks of intense pressure over his links to the paedophile financier.
He is also expected to shortly move out of his Windsor mansion, Royal Lodge.
It came after Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor - as he is now known - gave up his other royal titles, including the Duke of York, after more questions and allegations about his private life.
At the start of this year, emails showed that he had stayed in contact with Epstein for longer than he had previously admitted.
In a posthumous memoir published in October, Virginia Giuffre - a prominent accuser of Epstein - repeated allegations that, as a teenager, she had sex with Andrew on three separate occasions. Andrew has always strenuously denied the claims.
Andrew has also faced calls from Democrat members of the US Congress to give evidence to a committee investigating Epstein's activities. He had not replied to the request by the end of their deadline last month.
Separately, two photos of Ms Ferguson - then the Duchess of York - have emerged in the document dump.
One shows her standing on a pavement next to an unidentified woman holding a shopping bag. In the other, she is sitting cross legged on a green sofa.
US Department of JusticeMs Ferguson has also faced her own Epstein controversy earlier this year, after an email from 2011 revealed she called him her "supreme friend".
Multiple charities dropped the then-Duchess of York as a patron or ambassador after the emergence of that email, in which she also seemed to apologise for her public criticism of him.
The extensive redactions have been criticised by Democrats for violating the transparency law.
But the White House says the Trump administration is the "most transparent in history", as the DoJ says it has "erred on the side of redacting to protect victims".
Andrew Parsons/Kensington PalaceThe Prince of Wales has brought his 12-year-old son Prince George to help at a homeless shelter, so he can teach him about homelessness and show him the efforts of organisations trying to tackle it.
Prince William took his son to a charity with a deep personal connection - the Passage, in Westminster - where William had been brought as a child by his mother Diana, Princess of Wales.
This handing on of the torch took place last week, with George helping to make lunch for people being supported by the Passage, which works with homeless people in central London.
Prince George signed a visitors' book using the same page signed by William and his grandmother Diana in December 1993.
THE PASSAGEMick Clarke, chief executive of the Passage, said Prince George had come when they were preparing Christmas lunch for 150 people.
"So it was really about, 'Are you ready to roll up your sleeves and get stuck in?' And he very much was," said Mr Clarke.
"Very much like his dad, actually - just wanted to get stuck in and help," said the charity chief.
"A lovely kid is how I would describe him, and he just really seemed very interested in the work that we do and particularly in talking to people who have used our services," said Mr Clarke.
There was some competition between father and son in getting the food ready.
"William was on the sprouts, getting his sprouts ready so they could go into the steamer, and Prince George was helping with the Yorkshire puddings," said Mr Clarke.
He described the signing of the book with Princess Diana's name as a "lovely, beautiful moment - I think particularly with Prince William pointing out to George, 'This is my mum's signature. This was the first time that she brought me here.'
"It kind of felt full circle, really - 1993 through to 2025, with William bringing George," said Mr Clarke.
The charity head said it seemed as though Prince George's family were trying to show their children life outside the palace and how it was important that "the most vulnerable in society are supported and looked after".
And in terms of contrasts, the visit to the homelessness charity came on the same day as the annual Royal Family Christmas lunch in Buckingham Palace.
Andrew Parsons/Kensington PalacePrince William has been a supporter of the Passage since he was brought as an 11 year old by his mother, who had made regular visits, both public and private.
William is running his own campaign to tackle homelessness, Homewards, and he has described his early experience of visiting the Passage as an inspiration.
He remembered being anxious about his first visit with Princess Diana, but finding an unexpected warmth and happiness.
"My mother went about her usual part of making everyone feel relaxed, and having a laugh and joking with everyone," he said in an interview last year.
"I remember at the time, kind of thinking, well, if everyone's not got a home, they're all going to be really sad.
"But it was incredible how happy an environment it was," recalled Prince William.
THE PASSAGEThe Passage, which takes its ethos from the social reformer St Vincent de Paul, has been working in Westminster since 1980, and last year helped more than 3,000 people who were facing homelessness.
The charity says poverty is one of the main causes and "many people are just one bill away from experiencing homelessness".
It also warns of risk factors such as addiction and substance abuse, mental health problems, domestic violence and traumatic events in families.
The Passage has also highlighted links between homelessness and people being exploited in human trafficking and modern slavery.

The US justice department has released an initial tranche of documents related to Jeffrey Epstein.
The documents, which include photos, videos and investigative documents, were highly anticipated after Congress passed a law mandating the files be released in their entirety by Friday. The Department of Justice (DOJ), however, acknowledged it would not be able to release all of the documents by the deadline.
A number of famous faces are included in the first batch of files - including former US President Bill Clinton, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, and musicians Mick Jagger and Michael Jackson.
Being named or pictured in the files is not an indication of wrongdoing. Many of those identified in the files or in previous releases related to Epstein have denied any wrongdoing.
Among the documents released on Friday are many that are redacted, including police statements, investigative reports and photos.
More than 100 pages in one file related to a grand jury investigation are entirely blacked out.
Officials, as outlined in the law, were allowed to redact materials to protect the identity of victims, or anything related to an active criminal investigation, but they were required by law to explain such redactions, which has not yet been done.
The thousands of pages released on Friday are only a share of what is to come, according to the justice department.
Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche said the department was releasing "several hundred thousand pages" on Friday and that he expected "several hundred thousand more" to be released over the coming weeks.
He told Fox & Friends that the department was heavily vetting each page of material to ensure "every victim - their name, their identity, their story, to the extent that it needs to be protected - is completely protected". That is a process, he argued, that takes time.
The timing of when additional materials will be released is unclear, and lawmakers on both sides of the aisle have expressed frustration.
Democrats including Congressman Ro Khanna have threatened action against members of the justice department, including impeachment or possible prosecution over the delay.
Khanna led with Republican Congressman Thomas Massie to force a vote on the Epstein Files Transparency Act, defying US President Donald Trump who at first urged his party to vote against the measure.
"The DOJ's document dump of hundreds of thousands of pages failed to comply with the law," he said on social media, saying in a video that all options were on the table and being mulled over by him and Massie.
US Department of JusticeSeveral of the images released include former US President Bill Clinton.
One picture shows him swimming in a pool, and another shows him lying on his back with his hands behind his head in what appears to be a hot tub.
Clinton was photographed with Epstein several times over the 1990s and early 2000s, before the disgraced financier was first arrested. He has never been accused of wrongdoing by survivors of Epstein's abuse, and has denied knowledge of his sex offending.
A spokesperson for Clinton commented on the new photos, saying they were decades old.
"They can release as many grainy 20-plus-year-old photos as they want, but this isn't about Bill Clinton. Never has, never will be," Angel Ureña wrote on social media.
"There are two types of people here. The first group knew nothing and cut Epstein off before his crimes came to light. The second group continued relationships with him after. We're in the first. No amount of stalling by people in the second group will change that," he continued.
"Everyone, especially MAGA, expects answers, not scapegoats."
US Department of JusticeIn the tranche of files released by the justice department are court documents that mention the US president.
The court documents detail that Epstein allegedly introduced a 14-year-old girl to Trump at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida.
During the alleged encounter in the 1990s, Epstein elbowed Trump and "playfully asked him", in reference to the girl, "This is a good one, right?", the document says.
Trump smiled and nodded in agreement, according to the lawsuit filed against Epstein's estate and Ghislaine Maxwell in 2020.
The document says that "they both chuckled" and she felt uncomfortable, but "at the time, was too young to understand why".
The victim alleges she was groomed and abused by Epstein over many years.
In the court filing she makes no accusations against Trump, and Epstein's victims have not made any allegations against him.
The BBC has contacted the White House for comment.
The alleged episode is one of very few mentions of the president in the thousands of files released on Friday. He can be seen in several photos but his inclusion is minimal at best.
The Trump War Room, the official X account for the president's political operation, instead was posting photographs of Clinton. Trump's press secretary, too, re-posted images of Clinton, saying "Oh my!"
However, there are still pages to be released.
Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche has said that "several hundred thousand" pages of documents are still being reviewed and have yet to be made public.
The US president has previously said he was a friend of Epstein's for years, but said they fell out in about 2004, years before Epstein was first arrested. Trump has consistently denied any wrongdoing in relation to Epstein.
US Department of JusticeA photo in the released files appears to show Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor laying across five people, whose faces are redacted. Epstein's convicted co-conspirator Ghislaine Maxwell is seen in the image standing behind them.
Andrew has faced years of scrutiny over his past friendship with Epstein, who does not appear in the photo.
He has repeatedly denied all wrongdoing in relation to Epstein, and said he did not "see, witness or suspect any behaviour of the sort that subsequently led to his arrest and conviction".
US Department of JusticeThe newly released documents include the widest assortment of celebrities we've seen in an Epstein file release so far.
The former financer was known for having connections across entertainment, politics and business. Some images released by the DOJ show him with stars that include Michael Jackson, Mick Jagger and Diana Ross.
It's unclear where or when any of the photos were taken or in what context. It's also unclear if Epstein was associated with all of these figures or whether he attended these events. Previously released photos from Epstein's estate have included photos that he did not take from events where he was not in attendence.
In one of the newly released photos, Epstein is photographed with Michael Jackson. The pop idol is wearing a suit and Epstein is seen in a zip-up hoodie.
US Department of JusticeAnother image of Jackson shows him with former US President Bill Clinton and Diana Ross. They are posing together in a small area and multiple other faces are redacted from the image.
Another photo in the thousands of files shows Rolling Stones legend Jagger posing for a photo with Clinton and a woman whose face is redacted. They are all in cocktail attire.
Several photos include the actor Chris Tucker. One shows him posing and seated next to Clinton at a dining table. Another shows him on an airplane tarmac with Ghislaine Maxwell, the convicted associate of Epstein.
The BBC has contacted Jagger, Tucker and Ross for comment. Clinton has previously denied knowledge of Epstein's sex offending and a spokesperson on Friday said they were decades-old photos.
"This isn't about Bill Clinton. Never has, never will be," the spokesperson said.
US Department of JusticeUS Department of JusticeOne of the first people to report Epstein is included in the files. Maria Farmer, an artist who had been working for Epstein, told the FBI in a 1996 report that he had stolen personal photos she took of her 12-year-old and 16-year-old sisters.
She said in a complaint that she believed he sold the photos to potential buyers, and said he threatened to burn her house down if she told anyone about it. Her name is redacted in the files but Farmer confirmed the account was hers.
She notes in the report that Epstein had allegedly asked her to take pictures for him of young girls at swimming pools.
"Epstein is now threatening [redacted] that if she tells anyone about the photos he will burn her house down", the report states.
Farmer said she feels vindicated after nearly 30 years.
"I feel redeemed," she said.
GettyFormer Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan and his wife Bushra Bibi have been sentenced to further jail terms following a fraud case involving state gifts.
They were convicted of breaking Pakistan's rules on gifts after Bibi was given a luxury jewellery set by Saudi Arabia's Mohammed bin Salman during a 2021 state visit.
The pair are already serving time in prison for earlier convictions, and the new sentences - 10 years for criminal breach of trust and seven years for criminal misconduct, and a fine - will reportedly run concurrently to their earlier terms.
Khan has described the charges as politically motivated and his lawyer told BBC News his team plan to challenge the verdict.
Speaking to the BBC after the sentencing, the former prime minister's lawyer, Salman Safdar, said Khan and his wife had not been present for the hearing.
Mr Safdar said their legal team had only been informed about the sentencing late on Friday night, after normal court hours.
They planned to mount a challenge to the verdict in the high court, Mr Safdar said.
This case is the latest in a series of charges laid against the cricket star-turned-politician, who has been detained since August 2023. In January, he was sentenced to 14 years in prison over a separate corruption case.
He has faced charges in more than 100 cases, ranging from leaking state secrets to selling state gifts. The BBC has been unable to confirm the exact number brought against him.
The jewellery case, referred to as Toshakhana 2 in Pakistan, concerns a Bulgari jewellery set given to Bushra Bibi by Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman during a state visit in 2021, according to court documents.
Under Pakistan's rules on state gifts, these items go to Pakistan's Toshakana department (state treasury), but politicians are able to purchase the items back.
Khan is alleged to have asked a private firm to undervalue the jewellery set, before purchasing it back at a significantly reduced price.
In addition to their jail terms, the pair were handed a fine of over 16 million Pakistani rupees (£42,600).
Khan has previously been acquitted in a separate Toshakhana case.
The former leader still has other cases outstanding against him.
These include terrorism charges relating to violent protests that took place on 9 May 2023, when he was previously arrested.
Khan was Pakistan's prime minister until April 2022 when he was ousted in a vote of no confidence.
Although he has not been seen in public, his social media accounts have continued to operate with messages attributed to him on X often appearing after jail visits.
These have been highly critical of Pakistan's current government and its politically powerful army Chief Field Marshall Asim Munir, including posts calling him a tyrannical dictator.
In November, he was denied any visitors for nearly a month.
After campaigning by his family and party, his sister was allowed to visit in early December; a few hours after she saw him, his account posted a comment credited to Khan calling the Field Marshall Asim Munir a "mentally unstable person".
Khan has not been allowed any family visits since.
According to an official at the jail, Khan and his wife were present when the verdict was announced but no journalists were allowed to observe.
The judgement states the judge was lenient in sentencing because of Khan's "old age".

（ 德国之声中文网）这批公布的档案中包含了大量照片，其中包括前总统克林顿、已故歌星迈克尔·杰克逊等。他们都是爱泼斯坦社交圈的成员。
由于此批档案依然被大面积涂黑，而且特朗普政府官员在发布过程中严格控制，因此关于爱泼斯坦案的阴谋论可能仍然无法被平息。很长一段时间以来，有关美国政府刻意掩盖案情真相的阴谋论不断发酵、愈演愈烈。
大面积涂黑
比如，在一份列有254名按摩师的7页文档中，每一个姓名都被涂黑，旁边注明“为保护潜在受害者信息，已涂黑”。尽管如此，这批档案依旧揭示了声名狼藉的银行家爱泼斯坦与政商名流之间的密切关系。
至少有一份文档包含了数十张已经经过审查处理的裸照或者衣着暴露人物照片，还有一些照片则显示了爱泼斯坦与同伴的画面，他们手持枪支进行摆拍，但是其面部则被遮盖。
有一些照片此前从未被披露过，其中包括声明狼藉的安德鲁王子横躺在5个人腿上的画面，以及年轻时的希拉里·克林顿躺在浴缸里的场景（画面局部被涂黑）。
还有一张照片则显示克林顿正在与一名黑发女子并肩游泳。
克林顿成替罪羊？
特朗普政府官员现在正抓住克林顿的这些照片大作文章，白宫通讯主任张振熙(Steven Cheung)就在社媒X(推特)上发帖说：“狡猾的威利！克林顿悠闲自在，无忧无虑。他哪里知道……”
克林顿当年的副幕僚长乌雷纳(Angel Urena)则回应说，美国需要的“是答案，而非替罪羊。”乌雷纳在社媒X上发表声明说，白宫方面几个月来一直不公开这些档案，然后在本周五的夜里匆匆公布，“这并不是为了保护克林顿（的隐私），而是完全为了自保。”
民主党方面已经对此次公布的文档远未达到《爱泼斯坦档案透明法案》的要求表示不满。该法案原本要求联邦政府在12月19日前公开全部案件档案，仅受法律和受害者隐私方面的限制。
民主党的参议院少数党领袖舒默(Chuck Schumer)表示，“司法部公布的这套经过大量删减的档案只是全部证据的一小部分。仅仅公布一大堆涂黑的页面既违背了透明的精神，也违反了法律条文。例如，一份文档的119页全部被涂黑了。”
国会其他民主党议员则表示，白宫方面扣留了一份在爱泼斯坦2019年被捕后起草的起诉书，他们认为这份起诉书会牵连“其他在爱泼斯坦强奸岛上的富豪权贵”。
民主党的骗局？
特朗普总统曾经将爱泼斯坦视为密友，一度花费几个月时间阻止相关档案被公开。爱泼斯坦本人2019年在狱中等候性交易案庭审时突然去世，据当局判定为自杀。
特朗普一直到今年11月才在国会议员施压下(包括共和党同僚)签署法案，强制要求在12月19日前公布档案。司法部现在表示，今后几个星期还将公布更多文档。司法部副部长布兰奇(Todd Blanche)强调，检察官有权酌情决定是否公开与正在进行的调查相关的材料；为了保护爱泼斯坦数百名受害者的身份，一些文件也已被涂黑。
特朗普曾经在90年代与爱泼斯坦共同出席各类活动。不过，在爱泼斯坦2019年被捕之前几年，特朗普就与这位银行家断绝了关系，并且他本人至今也未在此案中遭到任何行为不当之指控。在2024年二度竞选期间，特朗普曾誓言要公开所有文件。然而，重返总统职位后，他却将这种透明度的努力斥为“民主党的骗局”。
今年7月，美国司法部发布一份备忘录，宣称在总统屈服于压力之前，不会再披露任何关于爱泼斯坦案的进一步信息，并称其所谓的“客户名单”并不存在。这份备忘录引发了一场政治风暴。
特朗普的右翼支持者长期以来一直对爱泼斯坦案以及有关这位银行家为全球政商名流经营性交易集团的阴谋论津津乐道。迄今为止，爱泼斯坦案只有一名嫌疑人被定罪：爱泼斯坦的前女友麦克斯韦(Ghislaine Maxwell)因帮助他招募未成年少女而被判处20年监禁。

（德国之声中文网）备受关注的中国异议人士关恒在美国面临驱逐一案有了新的进展。路透社周五（12月19日）报道，关恒律师陈闯创称，美国已放弃将这名中国公民驱逐至乌干达的努力。
关恒是一名中国公民记者。2021年，他冒险前往中国西部新疆地区，拍摄了遭到国际社会广泛谴责的大规模关押维吾尔及其他民族穆斯林的集中营设施。
随后，他经香港飞往厄瓜多尔——当时该国允许中国护照持有人免签入境。接着，他从厄瓜多尔飞往巴哈马，然后乘坐一艘小船，历经艰难抵达美国佛罗里达。
抵达美国后，关恒发布了他拍摄的新疆大规模关押设施的这些视频，并在美国申请政治庇护。
关恒案引发大量关注
特朗普政府在移民问题上采取强硬措施。今年8月，关恒因“非法入境”被美国移民与海关执法局（ICE）拘留。目前，他仍被关押在纽约州的一处拘留中心。
关恒的拘留以及可能被遣送至乌干达的处境引发了大量关注。
《华尔街日报》发表社论，谴责对关恒的驱逐是在充当中共的帮凶。伊利诺伊州民主党议员、众议院中共问题特设委员会少数党领袖拉贾·克里希纳穆尔蒂（Raja Krishnamoorthi）呼吁释放关恒。
活动人士在网络社交平台发起释放关恒的呼吁，并有不少人前往他的关押地点附近表达声援。
留下难得人权侵犯记录
多年来，中国一直被指控在新疆关押累计超过100万维吾尔人和其他穆斯林少数民族人士，并对被关押者施行虐待和酷刑。中国政府坚决反对这些指控，称关押维吾尔人的设施为“职业培训中心”，旨在打击极端主义。
2021年1月，特朗普第一任政府卸任前一天，认定中国在新疆地区镇压维吾尔族穆斯林的行为，犯下了 “种族灭绝和反人类罪”。该认定得到继任的拜登政府的赞同。
2022年9月，联合国人权高专办公室发布一份关于新疆人权情况的报告，表示有关中国对新疆维吾尔人实施酷刑的指控是可信的，而相关行为可能已构成反人类罪。
中国政府长期严格限制记者进入新疆地区。关恒只身前往现场，近距离拍摄这些关押设施，留下这场大规模人权侵犯行动难得的记录。
关恒的支持者和律师表示，如果他被遣送至乌干达，几乎可以确定将面临迫害。乌干达是一个北京在政治和经济上拥有相当影响力的东非国家，并和中国推进了在打击犯罪方面的合作。
乌干达今年与特朗普政府达成协议，接收来自第三国的移民。
“再教育营”：中国自2017年起在新疆大规模设立所谓再教育营，拘押维吾尔族等少数民族。德国独立学者郑国恩（Andrian Zenz）的研究首先披露了这一现象。国际媒体从2018年初开始对此报道，逐渐揭示有关拘禁营内强制劳动、虐待、洗脑等侵犯人权的做法。
“去极端化”：中国官方称这些教育营为“职业培训中心”，其目的是杜绝极端主义、为维吾尔人提供就业技能。2019年12月9日，新疆自治区政府主席雪克来提扎克尔宣布，所有学员已经“结业”，开始新生活。但仍有很多海外维吾尔人反映家人被拘禁。系统性侵权的指责：人权组织还指责中国在新疆实施全民监控、文化同化、剥夺宗教自由、强推节育以控制人口增长等措施。北京始终否认所有对新疆侵权行为的指控。2020年，中国领导人习近平还曾宣称中国的治疆政策“完全正确”、“成果显著”。
向国际刑事法院提告：2020年7月6日，两个流亡海外的维吾尔人团体委托律师向海牙国际刑事法院递交诉状，控告中国政府犯下"种族灭绝"和"反人类"罪行，并提交了有关证据。中国领导人习近平也名列被告。海牙国际刑事法院的任务是为种族灭绝、战争罪行和其他暴行的受害者伸张正义。但中国不承认其管辖权。
土耳其：从谴责到沉默：在相当长的时期内，土耳其总理埃尔多安一直对中国对待穆斯林少数民族的方式提出强烈批评，甚至在2009年新疆发生骚乱后谴责中国对维吾尔人进行'种族灭绝'。据报道，当时有很多维吾尔人逃亡到土耳其。然而从2016年开始情况发生变化。随着中国与土耳其的经济关系升温，埃尔多安政府不再批评中国的少数民族政策。
国际法概念：美国“外交政策”杂志网站2月19日报道，美国国务院法律顾问办公室于年初得出结论认为，中国对新疆维吾尔族的大规模监禁和强迫劳动属于反人类罪行，但没有足够证据证明中国在新疆进行了“种族灭绝”行为。报道援引人权观察组织国际司法专家Richard Dicker说，“种族灭绝是很难在法庭上证明的”，因必须确认犯罪者“有非常明确的意图“，“基于某个群体的宗教，种族或民族背景，消灭全部或部分人口”。美国：新政府接过既成事实：2021年1月19日，在特朗普卸任前一天，美国时任国务卿蓬佩奥称中国迫害维吾尔人的作法已犯下“种族灭绝与反人类罪”。继任国务卿布林肯 (Antony Blinken) 在19日的确认听证会上向参议院外交关系委员会表示，他同意蓬佩奥称中国迫害维吾尔人之举为种族灭绝的声明。
英国首相：是法律问题：英国首相约翰逊认为，“认定种族灭绝是法律问题，但我可以说，我认为新疆正在发生的事、针对维族人发生的事极其令人憎恶。”英国下院已否决疑似针对中国的“种族灭绝修正案”。 假如该案通过，英国将以法律形式禁止同犯有种族灭绝罪行的国家签署自贸协定。
呼吁调查：英国外交大臣拉布（Dominic Raab）2月22日在联合国人权理事会发言中指出，酷刑、强制劳工以及强制节育等都在中国的新疆以“工业化规模”发生。拉布呼吁，联合国人权高级专员巴切莱（Michelle Bachelet）或其他独立专家应“立即和不受限制”地进入新疆，人权理事会应该就此事做出一项决议。中国外长王毅对此则回应称欢迎联合国人权高专访问新疆：“新疆地区的大门始终是敞开的”。
加拿大：国会通过、政府弃权：加拿大国会2月22日以266比0的票数通过一项动议，认定中国在新疆对维吾尔人进行种族灭绝。加拿大总理特鲁多和大多数内阁成员则投了弃权票。特鲁多一直不愿将中国对新疆维吾尔族人的做法定性为种族灭绝，称该词“极其沉重”，并表示在做决定前需要进一步审查。
荷兰：议会通过动议 政府先不跟进：荷兰议会2月25日通过一项不具约束力的动议，称中国在新疆对待维吾尔穆斯林的方式属于「种族灭绝」。首相吕特(Mark Rutte，图)所属的政党对该动议案投下反对票。荷兰外长布洛克(Stef Blok)表示，政府不想使用「种族灭绝」这个字眼，因为联合国和国际法庭都尚未做出相关认定。2018年以来新疆人口出生率大幅下降：新疆社会科学院2020年9月公布《关于境外炒作新疆人口问题的研究报告》，称近年来新疆人口持续增长，其中维吾尔族人口增幅和出生率均高于全疆平均水平，所谓“种族灭绝”没有任何根据，并称2018年新疆人口增长出现下降，是全面落实计划生育政策的结果，也是新疆经济社会发展和各族群众生育观念转变的体现。中国官方统计数据显示，新疆2010至2017年的人口出生率均在15‰左右，其中2014年为16.44‰。但2018年，新疆的人口出生率降至10.69‰，2019年降至8.14‰。新疆人口自然增长率2017年为11.4‰,2019年跌至3.69‰。撤回将关恒遣送到乌干达的决定
“我们刚刚收到一封信，通知我们国土安全部（DHS）将不会寻求把关先生遣送到乌干达，”关恒的律师陈闯创对路透社表示。
陈律师说，目前尚不清楚华盛顿是否会继续寻求将关恒遣送至中国或其他国家，但他认为，将这样一位“高度知名的异议人士”送回中国的可能性不大。
根据美国国土安全部的政策，如果移民当局获得“可信的”外交保证，确认移民在第三国不会遭到迫害或酷刑，或者在遣送前提前至少六小时通知当事人，这些移民就可以被遣送至第三国。
尽管如此，陈律师表示，撤销将关恒遣送至乌干达的决定是一个积极进展。他说，预计将在未来几周内举行保释听证会，但庇护案件可能需要数年时间才能完成。
“关于此案的更多信息将陆续公布，”一名国土安全部发言人对路透社表示，并补充说，关恒是在时间和地点不明的情况下非法进入美国的。
该发言人还表示：“他的所有主张都将由移民法官进行审理。”
中国驻华盛顿大使馆没有立即回应置评请求。
美国国务院致信移民法官支持关恒
路透社报道称，其记者还核查了一封由美国国务院发出的信函副本，该信函对关恒的庇护申请表达了支持。
这封寄给移民法官查尔斯·奥斯兰德（Charles Ouslander）的信函，描述了关恒在记录中国当局侵犯人权行为方面所扮演的角色，以及中国境内异议人士和记者所面临的迫害威胁。
美国国务院负责民主、人权与劳工事务局的副助理国务卿朱莉·特纳（Julie Turner）在这封日期为12月12日的信中写道：“近年来，中国对其认定为不忠于中共的人士进行骚扰和报复，无论他们身处中国境内还是海外。”
美国国务院未立即回应路透社关于关恒一案的询问。
多名美国国会议员也呼吁释放关恒并批准其庇护申请。
众议院中共问题特设委员会少数党领袖克里希纳穆尔蒂上周公开致函国土安全部长克里斯蒂·诺姆（Kristi Noem），就关恒一案表示，美国有“道义责任为新疆人权受害者发声”。

（德国之声中文网）美国周五（12月19日）对叙利亚境内70多个“伊斯兰国”（IS）目标发动空袭，以报复上周在帕尔米拉（Palmyra）发生的导致两名美军士兵和一名翻译丧生的袭击。
叙利亚国家电视台报道称，空袭击中了代尔祖尔省（Deir ez-Zor）和拉卡省（Raqqa）的乡村地区，以及帕尔米拉附近的阿穆尔山（Jabal al-Amour）地区。
报道称，打击目标包括“‘伊斯兰国’的武器储存点和指挥部”。
一名五角大楼官员告诉美联社，此次行动动用了F-15“鹰”式战斗机、A-10“雷电”对地攻击机以及AH-64“阿帕奇”直升机。
美国国防部长皮特·赫格塞斯（Pete Hegseth）在社交媒体上表示：“今天早些时候，美军在叙利亚启动了‘鹰眼打击行动’，以消灭‘伊斯兰国’武装分子、基础设施和武器据点，直接回应12月13日在叙利亚帕尔米拉发生的针对美军的袭击。”
总部设在伦敦的叙利亚人权观察组织表示，此次袭击造成5名“伊斯兰国”成员死亡。
周六，约旦军方宣布参与了此次打击行动，“以防止极端组织利用这些地区作为威胁叙利亚邻国安全的跳板”。
两名美军士兵在叙利亚遇害
12月13日，两名来自艾奥瓦州国民警卫队的成员以及一名平民翻译在叙利亚沙漠地区的一次袭击中丧生。特朗普政府将此次袭击归咎于“伊斯兰国”组织。
美国陆军确认，两名士兵分别是来自得梅因的25岁中士埃德加·布赖恩·托雷斯-托瓦尔（Edgar Brian Torres-Tovar），以及来自马歇尔敦的29岁中士威廉·内森尼尔·霍华德（William Nathaniel Howard）。遇害的翻译是来自密歇根州梅科姆的阿亚德·曼苏尔·萨卡特（Ayad Mansoor Sakat）。
袭击发生后不久，美国总统特朗普承诺将实施“非常严厉的报复”。
特朗普坚称，报复行动的目标将是“伊斯兰国”，而不是叙利亚，并强调叙利亚总统艾哈迈德·沙拉（Ahmad al-Sharaa）对这次袭击“极为愤怒和不安”。
周五，叙利亚外交部发表声明称：“叙利亚重申其打击伊斯兰国的承诺，并将在美军空袭后加大对该组织的军事行动。”声明表示，叙利亚境内“不会有恐怖组织的安全避风港”。
叙利亚一直与美国主导的打击“伊斯兰国”联盟合作，并在上个月沙拉与特朗普在白宫会晤时达成了一项协议。
目前，大约仍有1000名美军驻扎在叙利亚。

17年前爆发的“三鹿奶粉三聚氰胺事件”是中国食品安全史上最严重的危机之一。简光洲正是该事件的吹哨人，也是中国首批调查记者之一。
作者：郑淯心
封图：受访者供图
12月的上海还没有入冬，简光洲穿着西装白衬衫，商务装成了他转行后的标配。在做媒体人时，他常穿的是T恤。相比做记者时，他的身材有些发福，“各种应酬太多了，为了生活”。
17年前爆发的“三鹿奶粉三聚氰胺事件”是中国食品安全史上最严重的危机之一。简光洲正是该事件的吹哨人，也是中国首批调查记者之一。
2008年9月11日，《东方早报》A20版以半版篇幅，刊登了简光洲的调查报道《甘肃14婴儿同患肾病 疑因喝“三鹿”奶粉所致》。由此，当时的中华人民共和国卫生部查出三鹿奶粉里含有三聚氰胺，随之也改写了中国奶业的发展进程，推动了《中华人民共和国食品安全法》（下称《食品安全法》）的提前出台。
报道刊发当年，简光洲被《新周刊》评为年度新锐人物。评委会的颁奖词如是写道：真相因良知而显露，黑幕因勇气而洞开。他打破媒体“某”规则，直接说出了“三鹿”两个字，引发了中国奶制品行业的地震，间接挽救了无数婴幼儿的生命健康。在蝼蚁撼大象的背后，他和他所供职的《东方早报》的诚实和勇气，还原了传媒的公共价值和监督角色。他只是一个记者，但他代言了2008年中国传媒的良心。
然而，这篇稿子见报前那晚，简光洲却把办公桌收拾得干干净净，做好了无法继续当记者的准备，“我以为第二天就会被开除”。
简光洲如今的办公室在一所大学里，很安静。办公室没有任何装饰，书柜最显眼的位置摆放着中国新闻奖的奖杯。奖杯很亮，落了些灰尘。今年8月，中华全国新闻工作者协会《历史上的名篇》点名三鹿奶粉的报道入选。但简光洲自己早已找不到当年的纸质报纸，手里只留存了电子版。
简光洲报道三鹿奶粉的版面截图（受访者供图）
2008年8月底，简光洲像往常一样在《东方早报》中国新闻部工位的电脑上刷着新闻。一则行业简讯《同济医院一项医疗技术有效治疗结石娃娃》引起了他的疑惑。简讯写道：“同济医院小儿外科在国内率先开展的一项新技术，已让6名停尿婴儿摆脱了死亡威胁。”
“婴儿肾结石极其罕见，医院却主动宣传能做这种手术，这本身就很反常。”简光洲随即拨通了医院电话。医生告诉他，同样的病例最近收治了三例。他继续追问：“以前这种情况多吗？”医生说非常少，一年碰不到几例。
简光洲心里咯噔一下，一般情况下，医院只有在碰到特殊、罕见的病例时，才会找媒体宣传。他疑惑地问：“这三个病例有什么共同点？”医生回想了一下说：“家长好像都说喝的是三鹿奶粉，但具体病因目前不明。”
简光洲立刻要来了家长的联系方式，逐一进行电话核实。三个家庭分别来自江西、河南、湖北三个省份，互不相识，却给出了同样的答案：孩子喝的是三鹿奶粉，最近因肾结石住院。
9月8日，位于甘肃省兰州市的中国人民解放军第一医院泌尿科又接收了一名8个月大、患有双肾多发性结石和输尿管结石病症的婴儿，这是该院过去3个多月接收的第14名患有同样疾病的病例。简光洲觉得，多个城市同期出现同样的罕见病例，绝非巧合。
简光洲找到中国人民解放军第一医院泌尿科首席医生李文辉，对方透露病例还在增加。他追问：“这些孩子喝什么奶粉？”李文辉说，家长们都提到了三鹿。那一刻，简光洲的怀疑变成了初步判断。
简光洲的思绪一下子回到了2004年。那年，他和同事跟进报道阜阳“大头娃娃”事件，正是因为假奶粉导致婴儿营养不良。如今相似的事情再次上演。“婴儿能吃什么？母乳、奶粉、水。如果是水污染，不会武汉和兰州都出现问题。”他迅速在脑子里搭建逻辑链条：事件罕见、地域分散、唯一共同点是三鹿奶粉。
简光洲拨打了甘肃省卫生厅及该省食品药品卫生监督局电话，得知他们已接到相关情况的汇报，正在联合多个部门调查。甘肃省卫生厅办公室主任杨敬科回复说，因为媒体经常询问，所以决定在9月11日上午召开新闻发布会向外界说明调查的进展。
在交稿前的最后一刻，简光洲拨通了三鹿集团总部电话，传媒部的工作人员承认“已获悉甘肃有婴儿患病的情况”。但就在当天，对方又给简光洲回电话强调说“已经委托了甘肃当地权威质检部门对三鹿奶粉进行了检验，结果显示质量是合格的”。
简光洲回忆说，他是9月10日下午下班前给三鹿集团打的电话，当天送检不可能立刻出结果。因此他觉得对方的回复本身就有价值，说明三鹿集团也知道可能存在问题，因此提前送检了。
简光洲笃定三鹿奶粉出现了问题，但出于新闻严谨性的考虑，在交稿后回家的路上，他又折返回报社，特意叮嘱编辑要加上副标题“不排除为假冒伪劣奶粉”。
为何要在交稿前最后时刻才采访相关部门及三鹿集团？“我怕被‘灭稿’。”这位习惯“抢新闻”的记者，那次却主动选择慢下来。
当晚，简光洲把自己的工位收拾得一尘不染，带上了全部私人物品。这个报道会引起很大震动，他可能会被问责离职。当天晚上，简光洲辗转反侧，一夜难眠。
9月11日清晨，报道见报，原本2400多字的报道被压缩成1900多字。当天早上，这篇报道迅速成为当时各大门户网站的头条。当天下午，三鹿集团给简光洲打了几十个电话，希望删稿，否则就起诉。
虽然笃定报道没问题，但这一天简光洲过得还是相当煎熬。在这篇新闻报道后面的留言中，不少网友骂他“收黑钱，打击民族企业”。
当天晚上8点多，新华社发文称：卫生部怀疑三鹿牌奶粉受三聚氰胺污染。随后，三鹿公司宣布召回奶粉后，简光洲如释重负。
后来的故事被大家知晓。三聚氰胺，这个原本用于化工生产的化学物质，被不法奶农添加到原奶中以“提高”蛋白质检测指标。报道发出后，国家质检总局紧急对全国婴幼儿奶粉进行抽检，专项检查显示22家婴幼儿奶粉生产企业的69批次产品检出了含量不同的三聚氰胺。
三鹿集团最终资不抵债，于2009年2月破产，原董事长田文华被判无期徒刑，三名直接责任人被执行死刑。
这场风波也推动了2009年《食品安全法》的出台，改变了中国食品安全的监管逻辑——从被动应对转向主动预防。我国也建立起了史上最严格的乳品监管体系。
2008年的简光洲 （受访者供图）
这篇报道在2009年获得了中国新闻奖一等奖。复旦大学新闻学院教授黄知晓专门撰文分析称其“严谨、专业”。
中文系毕业的简光洲，原本的理想是当个作家。
但师范大学毕业后，简光洲先是在江西省九江市一所高中担任语文教师。他回忆，1992年邓小平南方谈话后，中国大地吹起了深化改革开放的春风，80年代的文学热已慢慢退潮。加上作为文学家的鲁迅曾教育他的孩子“不要再搞文学了”的影响，简光洲放弃当教师，2001年考入了南昌大学新闻系。
“90年代初，解放日报发表系列再次改革开放的评论，影响了整个中国的历史进程，我觉得新闻更有力量。”简光洲说。
事实上，在上世纪90年代中期，中国新闻业也正在发生巨变，一大批提供纯信息尤其是经济信息为主的报纸纷纷创办，南有《21世纪经济报道》（2001年创刊）、北有《经济观察报》（2001年创刊）、东有《第一财经日报》（2004年创刊）等众多新锐媒体涌现出来。
“‘让无力者有力，让悲观者前行’，曾经一纸风行的《南方周末》及每年的新年献词，激励着一代年轻人义无反顾地加入到新闻行业，他们总是想着用新闻记录并改变世界。那种理想主义让我着迷。”简光洲说他的理想是成为《南方周末》的调查记者。
读研究生期间，每周四，简光洲都会准时出现在校门口的书报摊前。当时的《南方周末》一份卖两元，对学生来说不便宜，但他省下饭钱也要买。学校图书馆的《南方周末》也总是被人撕页，有人会把调查报道剪下来收藏。
“新闻是时代的瞭望者。”美国著名记者普利策的这句名言也被新闻学院的老师们在课堂上反复讲述。简光洲说，它深深地影响了一代又一代新闻学子，塑造了他们的新闻理想。他的理想是做“中国的法拉奇”，“能质疑权力，能用新闻改变社会不公，推动社会的进步”。
2003年，简光洲刚毕业就进入了文汇新民联合报业集团，随后被安排到准备创刊的《东方早报》。这家报纸立志要做“中国《纽约时报》”。那一年，天南地北来的年轻人聚集在上海延安中路839号新民晚报的老大楼，挤在嘎吱作响、时有老鼠四窜的简陋办公室里，为他们的雄心壮志日夜颠倒。
刚入报社，新记者有很多条线可选，选择某个条线意味着稳定的新闻来源和收入。但简光洲却选择做调查记者——这个吃力却不讨好的活。
2004年，简光洲与同事董小恒调查了阜阳劣质奶粉事件——小作坊用淀粉冒充奶粉，导致婴儿营养不良变成“大头娃娃”。报道迫使相关部门出手整治。也正是这个报道经历，使得简光洲在4年后，迅速从婴儿做肾结石手术的线索联想到奶粉可能有问题。
2008年的简光洲 （受访者供图）
三聚氰胺之后，简光洲成为《东方早报》首席记者，他继续做调查报道，但不能发出的报道越来越多。2009年，他耗时3个月深入采写“三千孤儿”——上世纪60年代上海送往内蒙古的孤儿寻亲故事。他采访了上百个家庭，这篇万字长稿却在最后一刻被毙稿。“有些敏感。”简光洲至今不愿详谈。
稿件多次“被毙”让他意识到一个调查记者的天花板：你可以触及行业黑幕，但有些东西碰不得。
2012年8月28日，在女儿一周岁生日之际，干了近10年调查记者的简光洲，从《东方早报》离职。他对外的说辞是想给女儿提供一个有尊严的生活。2003年刚做记者时，简光洲的薪水是每月六七千元，相比当时社会的平均薪资不算少。但10年过去，这份收入并没有上涨多少，贷款过后，更是所剩无几。
简光洲在微博上写道：“东早10年，是我人生中最宝贵的青春，所有的悲欢，所有的梦想，所有的忍受都是因为那份纯真的理想。好吧，理想已死，我先撤了，兄弟们珍重！”
2014年7月22日，东方早报创办澎湃新闻。2017年1月1日，简光洲曾供职的《东方早报》出版了最后一期，停刊转型为澎湃新闻。
当年和简光洲同期做调查的记者如今都已不再年轻，有的成了企业公关总监，有的转行做自媒体，还在一线做调查记者的寥寥无几。他羡慕国外的记者，越老越受尊重，中国的记者仿佛是一个青春饭，“身体受不了，收入上不去，领导不放心”。
简光洲的人生轨迹成为中国调查记者群像的一个剪影：在媒体的黄金时代，他们用如椽之笔推动社会进步，也在困顿之际转投他处。在网络上，有关心他的网友问：简光洲死了吗？简光洲在微博上这样回应：理想如同灰烬，看似熄灭，但随时也会重新燃起。

柬埔寨外交部周六表示，中国亚洲事务特使邓锡军本周访问了金边，敦促柬埔寨和泰国缓和激烈的边境冲突。
路透社说，中国特使邓锡军此次访问金边正值中美两国为促成泰柬停火而重新努力之际；东盟将于周一举行特别会议。
邓锡军此次访问金边正值美国和中国为促成泰柬停火而重新努力之际，而此时正值东盟周一在马来西亚举行有关泰柬冲突特别会议的前夕。
柬埔寨外交部在声明中表示：“邓锡军重申，中国将继续在促进柬埔寨与泰国对话方面发挥建设性作用，以推动争端的和平解决。”
另据法新社报道，美国国务卿周五表示，希望泰国和柬埔寨能在下周一或周二之前恢复停火，目前各方正加紧外交努力，以结束两国之间的冲突。
马可·卢比奥在华盛顿举行的新闻发布会上表示：“我们正在努力”结束敌对行动。他说：“我们对下周一或周二能实现这一目标持谨慎乐观态度”。
美国国务卿马可·卢比奥周四与泰国总理通了电话，并表示本周末将举行进一步磋商。
卢比奥表示：“双方都签署了书面承诺”，但“由于双方互相指责，这些承诺目前尚未得到履行”。“因此，现在的问题是让双方回到谈判桌前”。
建成后将连接越南北部与中国西南地区的老街－河内－海防铁路，星期五（12月19日）如期开工。
据新华社报道，铁路的第一部分工程开工仪式在越南北部老街省举行，并在铁路沿线四个省市设立四个分会场。
中国驻越南大使何炜在致辞中表示，老街－河内－海防铁路项目的实施将进一步打破地理阻隔，极大提升跨境运输能力，降低物流成本，畅通经济循环，让两国供应链无缝连接，为两国经济发展提供强劲支撑，希望双方科学有序稳妥推进项目建设。
越南建设部副部长阮名辉表示，铁路建成后将形成一条现代化经济走廊，为项目沿线区域注入新的增长动力。
老街－河内－海防铁路项目主干线全长超过390公里，建成后将连接越南北部省份与中国西南地区。目前第一部分工程主要涉及沿线各车站及站前广场的基础设施建设。
据此前报道，中国将通过贷款为项目提供部分资金。这是越南“两廊一圈”（Two Corridors, One Belt）倡议中计划修建的通往中国的两条铁路线之一，铁路线与北京的“一带一路”全球基础设施计划相连接。
美国国务卿卢比奥：“如果人们认为两三年内会爆发新的战争，你不可能说服任何人在加沙投资。这就是为什么解除武装如此重要”。 哈马斯高官哈亚：哈马斯拥有“合法的”武装权利。
加沙冲突调解国代表正在迈阿密开会。美国务卿卢比奥周五在新闻发布会上警告称，哈马斯必须解除武装才能进入加沙停火的下一阶段。
他表示：“如果哈马斯有机会威胁或攻击以色列，和平就无从谈起。” 他补充道：“如果人们认为两三年内就会爆发新的战争，那么你不可能说服任何人在加沙投资。这就是为什么解除武装如此重要。”
美国特使威特科夫计划于周五在迈阿密与土耳其、卡塔尔和埃及的代表举行会晤，这三个国家是停火的调解方和担保方。在饱受两年战火的加沙地带，脆弱的停火于10月10日生效，但调解方呼吁加大力度，推动美国和平计划进入下一阶段。
这阶段的设想包括：哈马斯解除武装、以色列军队逐步撤出整个加沙地带、建立过渡权力机构以及部署国际稳定部队。
卢比奥表示他对各方都能接受的国家已准备好加入这支稳定部队非常有信心。” 他明确表示，下一步将是建立“和平委员会”以及在加沙建立一个“技术官僚”式的治理机构。
美国总统唐纳德·特朗普计划近期与以色列总理本雅明·内塔尼亚胡会面，很可能是在下周，地点是在他位于海湖庄园的住所。
哈马斯称其有“合法”武装权
目前，各方正在就稳定部队的架构和可能参与的国家进行讨论，但卢比奥先生表示，现在要求各国做出具体承诺还为时过早。 包括印度尼西亚和阿塞拜疆在内的几个国家表示愿意派遣军队。然而，以色列反对土耳其军队加入该部队，认为土耳其与哈马斯关系过于密切。
12月中旬，哈马斯高级官员哈亚声称，哈马斯拥有“合法的”武装权利。他还表示，他愿意“研究”任何能够“在保障巴勒斯坦建国的同时”维护这一权利的提议。
哈马斯控制的卫生部周四宣布，自停火生效以来，至少有395名巴勒斯坦人死于以色列的炮火。
法新社说，自停火以来，已有三名以色列士兵在加沙地带丧生。此外，以色列仍在等待哈马斯归还最后一名被扣押在加沙的人质遗体，之后才会开始就和平协议第二阶段进行谈判。
周五在开罗，埃及外交部长巴德尔·阿卜杜勒拉蒂表示，他正与各方保持每日联系，以期“迅速落实”第二阶段协议。
（德国之声中文网）在世界各地联合国机构工作的日本公民人数创下历史新高。这一增长源于一项为期五年的计划，旨在将日方专家部署到联合国机构的关键岗位。
日本观察家：担忧中国在联合国推进自身利益
一些日本观察人士指出，东京担忧中国利用联合国机构来实现其地缘政治目标，希望通过该计划来对抗中国影响力。
“中国希望其在联合国的工作人员数量能够代表其人口规模及其对联合国贡献的金额，”东京国际基督教大学国际关系学教授斯蒂芬·纳吉（StephenNagy）表示。“他们一直在努力，而且相当成功地让自己的人员进入许多重要的委员会，”他告诉DW，“联合国工作人员理应为联合国工作，但许多人担心中方人员忙于推进中国的利益，阻挠针对北京的行动。”
北京尤其关注的一个领域是外界对其新疆维吾尔族人权状况的批评。
批评人士指责中国试图掩盖侵犯人权的行为，曾干预联合国人权高专办的报告撰写工作。该报告在经历了数月不明原因的拖延后，于2022年8月发布。
针对新疆人权状况问题，美国、英国在联合国人权理事会会议上批评了中国，而俄罗斯、津巴布韦、委内瑞拉等国则赞扬了北京“在新疆促进发展和多元化”。
2024年7月，非政府组织“联合国观察组织”（UN Watch）发布报告称 “中国和其他专制政权劫持了联合国机制”。
东京“唯一可行的回应”
根据联合国网站的数据，2009年联合国机构中共有794名中国公民，而到2023年这一数字已增至1647人。
国际关系学教授纳吉表示，日本在以唯一可行的方式进行回应。他说：“日本之所以做出回应，是因为东京清楚地感受到自身在联合国的领导地位正在下降，需要加强自身的影响力，使联合国重新发挥效力。”
日本外务省12月9日宣布，截至2024年底，共有979名日本公民在联合国机构任职，创下自1990年开始统计以来的最高纪录。这一数字正逼近2021年宣布的到今年达到1000人的目标。
日本公民在联合国机构中担任要职的比例也越来越高，在44个联合国机构中，有创纪录的94名日本公民担任副主任及以上级别职务。
东京2021年初加大对联合国机构投入的时间点值得关注，当时有四个联合国机构的负责人是中国公民，包括联合国粮食及农业组织、国际电信联盟、国际民用航空组织。另外，有九个机构的副负责人也是中国人。
历史性文件：1972年9月29日，时任中国总理周恩来和日本首相田中角荣在北京签署了《中日联合声明》（又称《中日建交公报》），标志着两国正式建立外交关系。这份声明的主要内容包括结束两国之间的不正常关系（战争状态），日本承认中华人民共和国为中国唯一合法政府。到1978年，两国代表又缔结了《中日和平友好条约》。一杯美酒泯恩仇？：《中日联合声明》的主要内容还包括，强调两国之间的友谊，日本“对过去战争给中国人民造成的重大损害的责任表示深刻反省”，以及中国政府宣布放弃对日本的战争赔偿要求。这份声明虽然开启了两国之间关系正常化，促进了双边政治、经济、文化交流，但是一些悬而未决的遗留问题直到今天仍然给两国关系造成影响。领海主权争议：东京和北京之间最大的矛盾之一，来自位于东海海域的几座无人居住的小岛——日本称之为尖阁诸岛，而中国则称钓鱼岛。2012年，日本政府宣布对尖阁诸岛实施“国有化”，引发了中国的强烈抗议，民间发起了抵制日货的行动。时至今日，中方的海警巡逻船或者渔船一再出现在争议岛屿附近海域并与日本海上保卫厅船只相对峙。“台湾有事，日本有事”：日本对于一旦台海爆发冲突给地区安全造成的影响一向十分关切。2021年12月，已卸任的前首相安倍晋三首次提出“台湾有事即日本有事”的说法，认为台湾海峡的安全局势与日本息息相关，如果中国武力进攻台湾，日本、甚至美日同盟应武装介入。此话招致北京的强烈抗议和警告。2025年11月，首相高市早苗在国会内部政策质询中再提该论述，再次引发中日外交风波，并在两国掀起巨大舆论争议。
战争记忆和历史教科书：在中国看来，日本方面没有充分反省其战争罪行是双边关系发展最大的障碍之一。在侵略战争中，日本军队曾经在中国使用过化学武器和生物武器，造成大量杀戮，其中最知名的事件就是1937年的“南京大屠杀”。中国不断批评日本试图淡化其军队在二战中的侵略和暴力行径，包括部分民间出版的历史教科书中使用争议表述。
靖国神社：位于东京的靖国神社供奉着明治维新时代以来为日本战死的军人，其中包括二战中的14名日本甲级战犯。几乎每年都有知名日本政治人物，包括国会议员和内阁大臣在重要祭拜日参拜靖国神社，一再引起中国政府的抗议。不过自1995年以来，小泉纯一郎是唯一一位在任期内（2006年）参拜过靖国神社的日本首相。图为2022年8月15日——日本二战战败投降日，大批民众排队进入靖国神社。福岛核废水与海产贸易：2011年福岛核电站泄漏事故发生后，相关处理过程中产生了大量曾经受到放射性污染的废水。2023年夏季，在日本政府批准和国际原子能机构（IAEA）监督下，当局开始将放射性废水过滤和稀释后逐步排入太平洋。中国在反对无效后，全面禁止日本海产品进口。中国民间也一时间反日情绪高涨。2025年，在双方协商后，中国同意启动恢复进口程序。
仇日民族主义：2024年，中国连续发生暴力袭击日本人事件。2024年6月，苏州日本学校校车遭持刀者袭击，造成一死两伤（死者为中国人）；同年9月，深圳一名日本籍男童在上学途中遭持刀攻击后死亡。有分析指出，受到中国官方默许的反日宣传和民族主义煽动导致民间仇日情绪升温。日本政府要求中国采取措施保障在华日本人的安全，并呼吁北京管控社交媒体上的“恶意反日贴文”。
日本，一个“理想主义国家”？
日本国家安全保障局和外务省的任务是培养具备必要技能的人才，以承担全球领导角色，避免日本被边缘化。
东京也在努力提升日本的国际影响力。联合国大学的总部设在东京，东京也在积极游说，争取成为国际刑事法院亚洲分院的所在地，该法院目前设在海牙。
对于日本增加在联合国机构的人员部署，也有专家认为，日本的主要动机是希望发挥自身作用，而非对抗其他国家日益增长的影响力。
“日本是一个理想主义国家，一直相信联合国随时准备介入任何情况，”天普大学东京校区政治学教授村上博美（HiromiMurakami）说道。“即使这种观点已经过时，日本仍然期望联合国能够介入解决危机，”她补充道。 “日本希望参与其中，而最好的方式就是增强我们在联合国的影响力。”
村上博美说：“我认为，在高市早苗首相的领导下，日本将继续沿着这条道路前进，因为她对日本的未来有着类似的愿景。”

俄罗斯经济特使德米特里耶夫周六宣布，他正在前往佛罗里达州迈阿密。法新社说，一系列旨在结束乌克兰战争的会谈已在那里展开。这场俄罗斯对乌克兰发动的战争将于明年2月进入第五个年头。
代表普京的德米特里耶夫在社交网络X上发帖写道：“前往迈阿密的路上”，并附上了一个鸽子表情符号和一段短视频，视频中清晨的阳光穿透云层，洒落在棕榈树环绕的海滩上。
他补充道：“当战争贩子们继续不遗余力地破坏美国为乌克兰制定的和平计划时，我想起了上次访问时看到的这段视频：阳光穿透了暴风雨的云层。”
乌克兰和欧洲的代表团也前往迈阿密，参加由美国总统特朗普的特使威特科夫和女婿库什纳领导的谈判。
法新社说，此前，美国都是分别与俄乌冲突双方进行谈判。这次，俄罗斯和欧洲参与会谈，标志着谈判取得了进展。
然而，普京的特使德米特里耶夫不太可能与乌克兰和欧洲谈判代表举行直接会谈，因为双方关系仍然极其紧张。
莫斯科于2022年2月向乌克兰派遣军队，并声称欧洲参与谈判只会破坏谈判进程，并将欧洲领导人描绘成好战分子。
俄罗斯总统普京在周五举行的年度新闻发布会上誓言将继续在乌克兰发动军事攻势，并称赞了莫斯科在战争爆发近四年后在战场上取得的胜利。
与此同时，特朗普的特使坚持一项计划，该计划将向乌克兰提供安全保障，但这很可能导致基辅割让部分领土，令许多乌克兰人感到不满。
周五，当新一轮会谈刚刚开始时，美国国务卿卢比奥保证不会向乌克兰强加任何协议。
他在华盛顿的新闻发布会上表示 “达成协议是他们的责任。我们不能强迫乌克兰达成协议，也不能强迫俄罗斯达成协议。必须由他们自己愿意达成协议”。
US Department of JusticeA photo of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor lying on the laps of women is among the thousands of Epstein files which have been released by the US Department of Justice.
In the picture, convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell hovers in the background smiling at the former prince. The photo appears to have been taken in the saloon room at Sandringham, the royal estate in Norfolk.
The emergence of the photo will add to scrutiny on Mr Mountbatten-Windsor, after he was stripped of his remaining titles and honours over his links to the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
Andrew has always denied any wrongdoing.
Two of the photos also show Andrew's ex-wife, Sarah Ferguson, in the company of women whose faces are covered by black squares.
BBC News has approached Ms Ferguson's representatives for comment.
Simply appearing in the photos or documents is not evidence of wrongdoing.
US Department of JusticeThe heavily-redacted tranche of some of the so-called Epstein files - the long-awaited documents relating to the US Department of Justice's investigations into Epstein - were released on Friday night.
The documents were highly anticipated after Congress passed a law mandating the files be released in their entirety by 19 December.
They contain photos of the interiors of Epstein's homes, his overseas travels and celebrities including US President Bill Clinton, Mr Mountbatten-Windsor and Michael Jackson. President Donald Trump was hardly mentioned in the files.
Many of those identified in other releases, including President Trump, have denied any wrongdoing in relation to Epstein.
In the undated picture of Andrew, the former prince - now 65 - looks much younger. He is smiling with his eyes closed.
The faces of the women, who are sitting in front of a grand fireplace, have been redacted with black squares. The photo appears to be at Sandringham, King Charles's private estate in Norfolk.
In another picture, he appears to be at Royal Ascot with Epstein and Maxwell.
US Department of JusticeAlso among the files are undated photos of Maxwell standing outside the door of 10 Downing Street.
In the picture she is alone and no context was provided with the photo about why she is there or when the image was taken.
US Department of JusticeThe issue over Andrew’s friendship with Epstein has continued to dog the royals.
The King stripped his younger brother of his prince title following weeks of intense pressure over his links to the paedophile financier.
He is also expected to shortly move out of his Windsor mansion, Royal Lodge.
It came after Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor - as he is now known - gave up his other royal titles, including the Duke of York, after more questions and allegations about his private life.
At the start of this year, emails showed that he had stayed in contact with Epstein for longer than he had previously admitted.
In a posthumous memoir published in October, Virginia Giuffre - a prominent accuser of Epstein - repeated allegations that, as a teenager, she had sex with Andrew on three separate occasions. Andrew has always strenuously denied the claims.
Andrew has also faced calls from Democrat members of the US Congress to give evidence to a committee investigating Epstein's activities. He had not replied to the request by the end of their deadline last month.
Separately, two photos of Ms Ferguson - then the Duchess of York - have emerged in the document dump.
One shows her standing on a pavement next to an unidentified woman holding a shopping bag. In the other, she is sitting cross legged on a green sofa.
US Department of JusticeMs Ferguson has also faced her own Epstein controversy earlier this year, after an email from 2011 revealed she called him her "supreme friend".
Multiple charities dropped the then-Duchess of York as a patron or ambassador after the emergence of that email, in which she also seemed to apologise for her public criticism of him.
The extensive redactions have been criticised by Democrats for violating the transparency law.
But the White House says the Trump administration is the "most transparent in history", as the DoJ says it has "erred on the side of redacting to protect victims".

Highlights - Joshua stops Paul in Miami
Such was the oddity of Anthony Joshua v Jake Paul even taking place, the fight landed on Netflix under a cloud of suspicion that boxing had surrendered itself to choreography.
To be clear, this was a sanctioned professional contest, not a scripted event - and the storyline it produced was mundane and predictably one-sided.
No scriptwriter would have come up with something like this.
The plot played out in the ring was lifeless - a slow, joyless watch that would have struggled to earn even a charitable rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
And the ultimate irony is that this spectacle has provided one of Joshua's biggest paydays and, in all likelihood, his largest television audience.
With seconds remaining in the fourth round, referee Christopher Young perhaps spoke for viewers around the world when he pulled the fighters together and urged them to engage.
Directing his comments at Paul, he said: "Fans didn't pay to see this crap."
"Amen," replied Netflix commentator Mauro Ranallo. "Christopher Young with the call of the night."
All week Joshua spoke about "carrying boxing on his back". On Friday night in Miami, he dumped the load, but only after an awkward and laboured process.
Paul was there to survive.
The man who spent fight week promising the greatest upset in sporting history instead avoided engagement.
He circled endlessly - making the most of the space afford by a ring two feet wider than normal - and attempted to run down the clock.
When he did make contact, it was with echoes of his schoolboy past as a wrestler, constantly going low and grabbing Joshua's leg.
There was an embarrassing lack of punches by Paul and a litany of wild swings from Joshua that even a novice like his opponent was able to easily evade.
"It's a win but it's not a success," Joshua said afterwards. "I've got a lot of improving I've got to do. I'm not happy."
Joshua earned his share of a reported £210m purse, but from a boxing perspective - and for those in the UK who stayed up into the early hours to watch - the contest was meaningless.

Joshua stood in the ring and told the crowd he did not care about legacy. It was an honest line, and a fairly accurate one, because nothing that just happened was going to add to it.
The 36-year-old is a schooled heavyweight, an Olympic gold medallist and a former two-time world champion.
He has left a significant footprint on the sport and inspired a generation of fighters and fans.
But going six rounds before doing the inevitable against Paul - a 28-year-old YouTuber-turned-boxer who had never faced anything close to elite level - will not enhance that legacy.
"I wish I could have knocked him out at the start," Joshua said. "But as we saw, Jake has spirit, he has some heart. He tried his best and I take my hat off to him."
The fight underlined how boxing's landscape is shifting, with Netflix-driven hype and commercial appeal increasingly trumping sporting logic.
It is the same thinking that has recently fuelled talk of Irish star Katie Taylor facing former UFC champion Ronda Rousey.
Joshua, for his part, is open to operating in that space.
Two of his past three fights have now come against boxing novices - first UFC fighter Francis Ngannou, and now Paul. His only other outing in that period ended in a heavy knockout defeat by a top-level heavyweight in Daniel Dubois.
The Dubois bout suggested Joshua is in decline, the toil of 33 professional fights after an amateur career eroding his powers.
Amid that backdrop, who can really blame him for taking the money and spotlight afforded at this stage in his career?
When promoter Eddie Hearn was asked about reports linking Joshua with a February bout against kickboxer Rico Verhoeven, he did not rule it out.
"Rico or whoever it is, we haven't finalised that yet," Hearn said. "The date is what we're going to work out in the next four, five, six days. We're not going to rush him back if he's not quite ready. But we won't be long."
Joshua has now won 29 of his 33 professional fights, 26 by way of knockout
Paul has spent years demanding to be recognised as a "real" boxer.
He has called out the likes of 35-year-old Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez - who has held world titles at four weight categories from light middleweight to light heavyweight - while at the same time picking opponents ranging from retired MMA fighters and faded ex-champions to reality TV personalities and even a grandfather.
Somehow he talked his way into fighting an Olympic gold medallist and former heavyweight champion in Joshua, despite being a novice cruiserweight.
In fight week some observers claimed he was of a regional level standard as a fighter.
So how did this happen?
The Disney-actor-turned-YouTuber-turned-boxer has more than 55m followers across his social media platforms.
And that audience and interest level is money.
Paul is said by Forbes to be worth $50m (£37.5m).
He trains out of a £3m converted warehouse in Puerto Rico, a full-time base with recovery suites, a strength and conditioning centre and high-end equipment used by elite professionals.
Conditioning coach Larry Wade, who has worked with world champions such as Shawn Porter and Badou Jack, oversees his physical work.
Head trainer Theo Chambers, who learned his craft at Detroit's famed Kronk Gym, runs technical sessions alongside former world title challenger J'Leon Love.
Moments after his defeat, he told the world about his suspected broken jaw and spat out blood for dramatic effect.
He also spoke of his determination to be a world champion.
With his audience reach influence and his resources expect to see him back in a boxing ring again no matter how much of a farce this fight was at times.
The surreal nature of the event was underlined at the post-fight news conference when Joshua put on his best Tyson Fury voice after being asked if he'd like to fight his British rival next.
"I give the dosser eight weeks; 24 hours to sign a contract. Let's see if he is a man. Greedy belly!" he laughed, sounding more like a pirate than the Morecambe native, who has also been world heavyweight champion.
It was comical, sure, but it also summed up the strangeness of the whole night.
Joshua and Fury should have faced each other long ago. The fight is no longer what it once was, but it would still be enormous and would still sell out a stadium. The question, then, is why it should be delayed again.
When it was put to Joshua, he said he would be happy to fight Fury next. Hearn insisted it could happen.
Boxing, and Joshua, have been here before.
In 2023, he and Deontay Wilder appeared on the same bill in Riyadh with the clear intention of finally meeting. Joshua beat Otto Wallin. Wilder lost to Joseph Parker. The fight never materialised.
Delay, diversion and interim fights have a habit of killing boxing's biggest moments.
That is the risk now facing Joshua and Fury - especially in a sport increasingly distracted by spectacle.
Joshua-Paul will not be the last of its kind. And if boxing wants to change the direction of travel, it may be time to rewrite the script.
But in the face of competition from entertainment-based contests like this, and boxing's inability to put on the key fights people want to see – like Joshua v Fury in their prime – only time will tell if more repeats are served up rather than new blockbusters.

Anthony Joshua calls out Tyson Fury with an impression
Wireimage/Getty ImagesAfter weeks of intense competition, the Strictly Come Dancing finalists are primed to take to the dance floor one last time.
Just three couples remain of the 15 at the start of the series, with celebrities Amber Davies, George Clarke and Karen Carney vying to get their hands on the glitterball trophy.
It's also the last time Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman will present a Strictly final. The pair announced they would be stepping down at the end of the current series.
The grand final will be broadcast on Saturday from 19:00 GMT on BBC One and iPlayer.
One of the main talking points leading into the final has been whether Amber Davies' performing background has given her an unfair advantage.
The Love Island star has faced a backlash online with people pointing out she's had roles in West End musicals Pretty Woman, 9 to 5: The Musical, and The Great Gatsby, as well as competing in the 16th series of Dancing on Ice.
This week, she told BBC News and other reporters at a Strictly press conference that she could "appreciate" where the comments are coming from.
"I have experience compared to these two," she said, gesturing at the other finalists. "I'm not shying away from that. However, I would say that the love actually does outshine the hate."
When asked whether she deserves to win, the actress, who is paired with Nikita Kuzmin, said: "I feel like I have worked just as hard as these guys going into the final, because I had to fight to get into the final."
The backlash is perhaps a symptom of a wider theme on Strictly, where over the years some viewers have appeared to form their own judgements on contestants, regardless of what the judges think or what the overall audience vote says.
Earlier this series Lewis Cope received criticism for having been a child actor in Billy Elliot, for example, and last year JB Gill came under fire for having danced before in the boyband JLS.
And it seems many viewers value an element of surprise or beating the odds, as with Strictly's first blind contestant Chris McCausland winning last year.
For Karen Carney, becoming the first footballer to reach the Strictly Come Dancing final feels "weird" but she's also "really, really proud".
"I can't believe a footballer is in the final," she said in the press conference.
The former Lioness, who is partnered with Carlos Gu, said she had struggled with her confidence in recent years, but added: "I always knew in my heart Strictly would be the thing that would fix me... It's by far the happiest I've ever been."
For social media star George Clarke, reaching this point in the contest is "mental".
"It's a completely different world to what I'm used to," he said.
Another online star, AngryGinge, was recently crowned king of the jungle in this year's I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! It opens up the possibility of two social media stars winning two of the biggest shows on television.
"I feel like it's a whole demographic that hasn't really been touched massively in mainstream TV," said Clarke, who is partnered with Alexis Warr.
The finalists will perform three routines: they will revisit a previous routine, perform a show dance and then take to the floor with their favourite dance from the series.
This is what they'll be dancing to:
Amber and Nikita
George and Alexis
Karen and Carlos
Other highlights from the show will include a group routine from the professional dancers and this year's finalists.
The cast of 2025 will return to the dance floor one last time for a group number, although BBC News understands that Apprentice contestant Thomas Skinner will not join.
Strictly Come Dancing 2025's grand final is at 19:00 GMT this Saturday on BBC One and iPlayer.
It will also be available to watch on the live page on the BBC News website.
The live page will also have plenty of build up ahead of the show - plus extra insight on the dances, the outfits, the judges' comments, and much more.
This year, Strictly has moved to online-only voting.
When the vote is open, shimmy over to this website to make your decision!
As with every final, all of us at home have the full power to decide the winner.
The judges will give their scores, but these will just be for guidance and don't get combined with the viewers' votes.
Warning: The section below includes spoilers from last week's Strictly
Standards were incredibly high last week, as you would expect for a semi-final.
Amber Davies and Nikita Kuzmin kept up with their perfect score for a third consecutive week, while Karen Carney's Waltz had judge Anton Du Beke "a bit emotional" and George Clarke captivated the judges with his hip movement.
In the end, Balvinder Sopal and Caillon left the competition, following a dance off on Sunday night against Davies and Kuzmin.
In October, we had the shock announcement by Daly and Winkleman that they would be stepping down at the end of this year's series.
The celebrity contestants later told me that the news took them by surprise too. "No one saw it coming," one said.
Daly has presented since the first series 21 years ago. Winkleman joined in 2014, having hosted Strictly's sister show It Takes Two since 2004.
This Saturday will be their last time presenting a Strictly final. Speaking on Strictly's sister show It Takes Two last week, the pair admitted they might feel "emotional" after the show.
Their last ever appearance on the show will be the Christmas special, which airs on 25 December.
There have been plenty of twists and turns in the show's 21st year.
But the show has also been embroiled in controversy.
In November, it emerged that an unnamed star from Strictly has been arrested on suspicion of rape. It comes after another man involved with the hit BBC dance show was also arrested on suspicion of rape in August.
It is understood that neither developments were related to the current series of Strictly.
It came after a difficult few years for the show, with a number of former celebrity contestants speaking up about their negative experiences on Strictly.
Last year, the corporation introduced new duty of care measures, including putting chaperones in rehearsals.
EPAThe Australian state where the Bondi shooting occurred plans to ban the phrase "globalise the intifada" as part of a crackdown on "hateful" slogans.
New South Wales (NSW) premier Chris Minns has also called for a Royal Commission into the Bondi attack, marking the deadliest shooting in Australia in nearly 30 years.
Fifteen people were killed and dozens injured last Sunday when two gunmen, believed to have been motivated by "Islamic State ideology", opened fire on a Jewish festival at the country's most iconic beach.
Australia's state and federal governments have announced a raft of measures to counter extremism since the attack.
Minns plans to recall the state parliament next week to pass through stricter hate speech and gun restrictions. Earlier this week, he also suggested he would tighten protest laws to scale back mass demonstrations to encourage "a summer of calm".
The premier confirmed he would seek to classify the chant "globalise the intifada" as hate speech.
Two pro-Palestinian protesters were arrested on Wednesday for allegedly shouting slogans involving intifada at a demonstration in central London.
The term intifada came into popular use during the Palestinian uprising against Israeli occupation of the West Bank and Gaza Strip in 1987.
Some have described the term as a call for violence against Jewish people. Others have said it is a call for peaceful resistance to Israel's occupation of the West Bank and actions in Gaza.
Earlier this week, Minns, along with the NSW Opposition Leader Kellie Sloane, attended the funeral Matilda, 10, who was the youngest victim of the Bondi shooting. He read out a poem dedicated to the young girl at the event.
Prime minister Anthony Albanese has announced a new gun buyback scheme to purchase surplus, newly banned and illegal firearms. Hundreds of thousands of guns will be collected and destroyed, the government predicts.
Around 1,000 lifeguards staged a tribute on Saturday, lining up arm-to-arm facing the ocean, on the shorelines of Bondi beach. Surf lifesaving teams at other beaches around Australia were photographed performing a similar memorial.
Through the week, Bondi's surf volunteers have been commemorated as some of the heroes of the shooting. Lifeguard Jackson Doolan was photographed sprinting over from a neighbouring beach during the attack carrying a red medical supply bag.
Hundreds of swimmers and surfers paddled out at Bondi beach yesterday to create a giant circle to pay tribute to the victims of the attack.
On Sunday, Australia will hold a national day of reflection with the theme "light over darkness" marking precisely one week after the attack started with a minute's silence at 6:47 pm (0747 GMT).
Flags will fly at half-mast and Australians are being asked to light a candle in their windows to honour the victims.
"Sixty seconds carved out from the noise of daily life, dedicated to 15 Australians who should be with us today," prime minister Albanese told reporters Saturday.
"It will be a moment of pause to reflect and affirm that hatred and violence will never define us as Australians."
Bondi's attack was Australia's worst mass shooting since Port Arthur in 1996, where 35 people were killed and prompted then-prime minister John Howard to introduce strict gun control measures.
