Everest Medicines Announces NMPA Full Approval of NEFECON, Broadening Treatment Access for IgA Nephropathy Patients in China JCN Newswire

Everest Medicines Announces NMPA Full Approval of NEFECON, Broadening Treatment Access for IgA Nephropathy Patients in China

HONG KONG, May 7, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Everest Medicines (HKEX: 1952.HK) today announced that the supplemental New Drug Application (sNDA) for NEFECON has received full approval from the China National Medical Products Administration (NMPA). This regulatory milestone significantly broadens the treatment population, allowing NEFECON to be used to reduce the loss of kidney function in adult patients with primary immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN) at risk of disease progression, regardless of proteinuria levels. The prior limitation requiring elevated proteinuria has now been removed.With this latest approval, NEFECON becomes the first and only etiological treatment for IgAN to receive full approval in China, reaffirming its position as a foundational first-line therapy and marking a major advancement in the standard of care for IgAN patients."The full approval of NEFECON in China marks a significant milestone, providing a foundational first-line treatment for IgAN patients, regardless of proteinuria levels, and addressing critical unmet clinical needs," said Rogers Yongqing Luo, Chief Executive Officer of Everest Medicines. "As the first and only etiological treatment for IgAN in China to receive full approval from the NMPA, this further reinforces NEFECON's proven clinical efficacy and safety, providing a solid foundation for treatment decision-making. With over 100,000 new cases diagnosed annually in China, there is a substantial unmet medical need. NEFECON's inclusion in the National Reimbursement Drug List (NRDL), with reimbursement now available in 31 provinces and cities, is key to improving accessibility and affordability for patients."The NMPA's full approval is supported by robust efficacy and safety data from the global Phase 3 NefIgArd clinical trial, a randomized, double-blind, multicenter study evaluating NEFECON (16 mg once daily) compared with placebo in patients on optimized RASi therapy. In the global cohort, NEFECON demonstrated a statistically significant and clinically meaningful benefit in preserving estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) over a two-year period-comprising 9 months of treatment and 15 months of follow-up off drug. NEFECON also showed durable reductions in urine protein creatinine ratio (UPCR) and a decline in microhematuria, further supporting its clinical utility.In the China subpopulation of the Global Phase 3 NefIgArd Clinical Trial, NEFECON reduced the rate of kidney function decline by 66% and delayed the need for dialysis or kidney transplantation by 12.8 years, reinforcing its transformative potential for long-term disease management in Chinese patients.As the first IgAN etiological treatment drug fully approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the European Medicines Agency (EMA), NEFECON has been approved across all Everest Medicines territories, including mainland China, Hong Kong SAR, Macau SAR, Taiwan(China), as well as Singapore and South Korea. It is now commercially available in mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau, and Singapore, with anticipated launches in Taiwan(China), and South Korea later this year, benefiting IgAN patients in all authorized regions.The full approval of NEFECON not only broadens its clinical applicability, allowing more IgAN patients to benefit from targeted therapy earlier in their disease progression, but also represents a significant advancement in Everest Medicines leadership in the renal disease sector. This milestone further demonstrates Everest's dedication to accelerating access to innovative treatments that address critical unmet medical needs and provide long-term value for patients, healthcare systems, and society.

云顶新耀宣布耐赋康(R)获得中国国家药品监督管理局完全批准 全面拓展IgA肾病治疗人群

香港, 2025年5月7日 - (亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com) - 今日,云顶新耀(HKEX: 1952.HK)宣布,其核心产品耐赋康(R)(布地奈德肠溶胶囊,NEFECON(R))正式获得中国国家药品监督管理局(NMPA)完全批准。这一批准标志着耐赋康(R)适应症范围的全面拓展,适用于所有具有疾病进展风险的原发性IgA肾病(IgAN)成人患者,并取消了之前对蛋白尿水平的限制,使其成为中国首个且目前唯一获得NMPA完全批准的IgA肾病治疗药物,夯实了耐赋康(R)治疗IgA肾病一线基石地位。此次完全批准的关键在于,取消了对尿蛋白肌酐比值的限制,耐赋康(R)的适用范围得到了进一步扩大,允许所有被评估为"具有疾病进展风险的原发性IgAN成人患者"使用耐赋康(R)。风险评估指标包括但不限于:eGFR年下降≥1 ml/min/1.73m²、24小时尿蛋白≥0.5g/d、高血压、镜下血尿及病理改变(MEST-C评分)等综合临床因素。这一变化使得更多进展风险尚未表现为高蛋白尿的患者,尤其是早期患者,有望及早接受靶向治疗,延缓病程进展。目前,中国约有500万的IgA肾病患者,每年新增确诊患者超过10万人。此前,IgAN治疗领域长期缺乏获批的对因治疗药物。2023年,耐赋康(R)通过优先审评程序获NMPA附条件批准上市,填补了国内从疾病源头治疗IgA肾病的空白,该药用于治疗具有进展风险的原发性IgA肾病(IgAN)成人患者(一般来说,这类患者的尿蛋白肌酐比值(UPCR)≥ 1.5 g/g)。耐赋康(R)的完全获批,是基于3期临床2年完整优异的肾功能保护数据,并取消了对蛋白尿水平的限制。这将极大扩展耐赋康(R)用药患者基数,使更广泛的患者获益。NefIgArd III期临床研究的完整数据显示,耐赋康(R)(16mg,每日一次)与安慰剂相比,在接受RAS抑制剂优化支持治疗的原发性IgA肾病成人患者中显著改善了蛋白尿、镜下血尿,且能有效延缓肾功能衰退。研究表明,耐赋康(R)能够减少肾功能衰退达50%,在中国人群中能延缓肾功能衰退达66%,预计将疾病进展至透析或肾移植的时间延缓12.8年。耐赋康(R)已与2024年11月被纳入国家医保药品目录,截止今年3月底,全国26个省市的医疗机构已开始按医保价格执行。这一完全批准将进一步推动耐赋康(R)在医疗机构中的广泛覆盖,提高药物的可及性和可负担性,帮助更多患者从中受益,释放更大的市场潜力。作为全球首个获得美国食品药品监督管理局(FDA)和欧洲药品管理局(EMA)完全批准的IgA肾病治疗药物, 耐赋康(R)已相继在云顶新耀所有授权区域(中国澳门、中国大陆、新加坡、中国香港、中国台湾以及韩国)获得批准,其中,中国澳门、中国大陆、新加坡和中国香港已商业化上市,韩国和中国台湾预计于年内上市。云顶新耀首席执行官罗永庆表示:"此次完全批准取消了对蛋白尿水平的限制,这将推动耐赋康(R)从改变治疗格局走向重塑治疗标准,延缓IgA肾病患者肾功能衰退,更好地满足长期未被满足的临床需求,使更多患者获益。" Copyright 2025 亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com.

全产业链贯通的抗血清头部平台商:江西生物持续引领行业发展

香港, 2025年5月7日 - (亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com) - 在生物制药领域,抗血清产品作为临床急救与中毒治疗中不可或缺的生物制剂,长期以来处于高壁垒、低关注的特殊地位。而在这一细分赛道中,江西生物制品研究所股份有限公司(「江西生物」)以其深厚的技术积淀,成为抗血清细分龙头。根据弗若斯特沙利文的资料,江西生物是中国及全球最大的人用破伤风抗毒素(「TAT」)提供商,按2024年销量计,市场份额分别为65.8%及36.6%。4月11日,公司向港交所递交上市申请,有望为港股市场增加一枚稀缺的优质医药标的。锚定高壁垒下的蓝海市场,技术构筑发展护城河受限于高进入门槛,中国十家动物源性抗血清生产商中,具备完整的全产业链整合能力的企业仅有三家,其中江西生物为规模最大者。横跨全产业价值链的端到端能力,使江西生物能够实现可靠的质量及成本控制,并确保稳定及时的供应。据了解,江西生物的动物免疫及抗血清制备工艺整合了先进的纯化及制剂技术,使其得以保持较高的技术壁垒,并确保产品的质量与疗效。根据弗若斯特沙利文的资料,江西生物是全球唯一一家使用重组蛋白、mRNA及无血清抗原开发抗血清产品的公司。技术路线的优势,客观上优化了公司的研发投入结构。随着多项开发项目完成阶段性目标,当期费用相应减少,公司2024年研发费用呈现结构性下降,反映其研发进程上取得了实质性进展,助力公司未来发展。技术护城河直接转化为市场统治力。根据弗若斯特沙利文的资料,江西生物已连续 18 年稳居中国人用 TAT 市场第一,市场份额保持50%以上,尤其TAT出口占中国于相关年度出口量的近100%。在菲律宾、埃及等重点海外市场,其人用TAT市占率约 90%,形成「国内 + 国际」双轮驱动的发展格局。该机构预计全球人用抗血清市场2024年至2028年及2028年至2033年的复合年增长率分别为19.1%及20.6%,而同期中国人用抗血清市场的复合年增长率将分别为19.9%及17.0%,广阔前景将为江西生物的全球化发展提供有利机遇。持续进化,从「单品王者」到全产业链平台企业实际上,江西生物的脚步并不止于人用TAT 单品。凭借在人用抗血清产品领域的长期积淀以及全产业链能力,其正向全球领先的抗血清平台商转型。目前,江西生物已构建一个丰富而差异化的创新人用及兽用药品管线,瞄准严重未满足的需求,打造业务的第二增长曲线。除人用TAT外,江西生物兽用TAT预计将于2025年第四季度上市,与人用药一起成为推动公司业务快速增长的双飞轮。公司现有产品还包括PMSG以及若干用于补充或支持PMSG治疗的兽用激素类药物,这些产品将在完成上市批准的重新注册后投放市场。此外,江西生物亦在开发蛇咬伤抗毒血清、马狂犬病免疫球蛋白F(ab')2、其他用于呼吸道合胞病毒(「RSV」)感染及抗生素耐药细菌感染的人用抗血清产品以及多种兽用抗感染药物,预计未来五年内将有六至七个人用及兽用産品陆续上市。公司还计划加快在现有及新增生产线上整合创新技术,包括辛酸纯化技术、离子交换层析及特异性亲和层析,以提升产品质量及效力。总体而言,在抗血清这一被极具潜力却被市场低估的赛道,江西生物以全产业链优势构建高技术壁垒,稳居行业领先地位。随着抗血清价值的认知深化与创新管线的不断落地,这家行业龙头的成长故事,或许才刚刚开始。 Copyright 2025 亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com.

你是在看电影,还是仅仅在看内容? Latest News

你是在看电影,还是仅仅在看内容?

(SeaPRwire) - 每当朋友或同事在我之前看了电影,我问的第一个问题不再是“好看吗?”,而是“感觉像一部真正的电影吗?” 每个人都清楚这个问题是什么意思,即使我们谁也无法完全表达出来。流媒体的兴起不仅侵蚀了观影体验,也侵蚀了传统上使电影成为电影的难以定义的品质。我已经数不清有多少次朋友或熟人对我说:“现在可以流媒体播放的内容太多了——我宁愿呆在家里。” 但即使影院体验有时似乎正在消亡,电影却并没有。年轻人和资深电影制作人都仍然想制作电影。是什么仍然吸引着他们——和我们——去制作电影?是什么让一些电影感觉真实,而另一些电影感觉像虚假产品,只配得上那个轻蔑的词内容?这都是新的领域。但或许可以看看最近的一些院线电影,以及一些仅通过流媒体发行的产品,以帮助辨别是什么让一部电影在今天感觉像一部真正的电影。 一部电影必须感觉完全新鲜吗?James Hawes 的 , 由 Rami Malek 饰演一位低调的中央情报局雇员,一心想为妻子的死报仇,该电影改编自 1981 年 Robert Littell 的惊悚小说,之前已被改编过。但它有一种令人满意的光环,似乎应该出现在大银幕上。故事发生在伦敦和巴黎等引人注目的地点,导演手法充满自信的力量感。在 1990 年代,我们过去每年会看到八九部像这样老练的动作惊悚片;现在,像 The Amateur 这样的电影,在大银幕上观看,可以唤醒我们失去的某种感觉。它感觉像一种被遗忘的奢侈品。 但一部作品不一定非要在银幕上播放才能感觉像一部真正的电影。电影制作人或演员的信念,或两者兼而有之,可能是决定性因素——这是一种“你看到它时就知道”的事情。Netflix 这些年来资助了一些很棒的电影,从 到 . 但 Netflix Original The Electric State, 是由 Russo Brothers 执导的反乌托邦科幻片,于三月中旬仅通过流媒体发行,却获得了既草率又奢侈的可疑荣誉。Netflix 花费了大约 3 亿美元,但即使有其设计得看起来很酷的以机器人为中心的特效,它也几乎不值得在最小的屏幕上观看。但这并不意味着直接面向流媒体的实体永远不会感觉像电影。FX 的剧集 Shogun 是电视剧提供通常我们必须去电影院才能看到的视觉辉煌的一个例子。即使对于铁杆电影迷来说,当电影在这方面做得不好时,电影电视剧也可以介入。 那么,那些成为意外热门的电影呢?它们之所以成功是因为它们有趣且制作精良,还是机制比这更神秘?Lawrence Lamont 的粗俗喜剧 ——其中 Keke Palmer 和 SZA 饰演最好的朋友,她们花了一天疯狂的时间试图凑集 1500 美元的房租——于一月份上映,并在影院上映了两个多月,然后在四月初转移到 Netflix。观众喜欢它。但这部电影在小屏幕上也表现得很好——即使你独自观看,它也很有趣。让我们逆向推导一下这个等式,考虑一下 Patricia Riggen 的动作冒险片 , 来自 Amazon MGM Studios。Viola Davis 饰演美国总统,一位战争老兵,当加密恐怖分子入侵南非的 G20 峰会时,她被迫掸掉自己的战斗技能。虽然这部电影仅在 4 月 10 日开始通过流媒体发行,但 Amazon 确实在几天前为小部分精选观众播放了它,这就是我观看它的方式。我无法想象在我的客厅里会喜欢这部制作热情但有些笨拙的电影。但是观看 Davis,一位很少有机会放开自己的出色演员,用煎锅击中坏人的头部?观众们疯了,我也是。有时,其他人类的存在可以将一部作品变成大于其各部分之和的东西。 电影化的电影不一定非要奢侈或昂贵。今年早些时候,Steven Soderbergh 发布了 , 一部微妙但非常有效的超自然惊悚片,制作成本约为 200 万美元。Soderbergh 的优雅老练的间谍片 几个月后上映,花费了相当多的钱(大约 5000 万美元),但并没有在票房上收回成本——但这并不能反映其质量。现在比以往任何时候都更,电影之神可能是残酷的。 然而,即使电影年还很年轻,我们已经看到了一个完美的电影化电影的例子。Ryan Coogler 的 实现了伟大主流电影的所有承诺,并在上映几周后,票房回报证明了这一点。Sinners 看上去很华丽,虽然它充满了关于种族和社区的严肃想法,但它并没有因此而受到阻碍。它既有一位大电影明星 Michael B. Jordan,也有一位令人震惊的新人 Miles Caton,他是一位受邀与魔鬼共舞的蓝调天才。而且它是关于吸血鬼的——嗜血、无情、充满魅力的吸血鬼。有音乐,有热气腾腾的性爱,有以一种既艺术又令人兴奋的方式呈现的血腥场面。Sinners 是一种让你回家后会想,好吧,我刚刚看到了一些东西的电影。你看到了电影制作人可以用一种可能性、一台摄像机、一个演员和工作人员做什么。但也许更重要的是,你成为了电影制作人可以与观众建立的几乎神秘的联系的一部分。在电影方程式中,你是成分 X。没有你,就没有真正的电影。本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

印度是否正威胁将水资源武器化以应对与巴基斯坦的冲突 Latest News

印度是否正威胁将水资源武器化以应对与巴基斯坦的冲突

(SeaPRwire) - 巴基斯坦正因印度在其领土上发动的袭击而遭受重创,而此时两国正处于官方和平时期,并且克什米尔边境也冲突不断,观察家们担心这两个拥有核武器的邻国之间的冲突会进一步升级。 但除了枪支和导弹之外,印度还威胁要使用另一种武器来对抗巴基斯坦,巴基斯坦表示这肯定构成“战争行为”:那就是水。 根据巴基斯坦军方的说法,印度周三早些时候袭击的目标包括巴基斯坦的。此次袭击发生在印度总理纳伦德拉·莫迪宣布印度将阻止水流出其边界的几个小时后。 莫迪周二 表示:“现在,印度的水将为印度带来利益,它将被印度保存,它将被用于印度的进步。” 印度在上个月暂停了与一项有65年历史的条约,该条约规定了两国之间的水资源共享,此前发生了“”—指的是巴基斯坦激进组织对印度控制的克什米尔游客发动的袭击,巴基斯坦表示与此无关。 巴基斯坦回应称,任何阻止来自印度(位于上游)的水流的企图“都将被视为战争行为,并将以国家力量的全部力量作出回应”。 该 是由 World Bank 在1960年斡旋达成的,此前印度和巴基斯坦从英国统治下独立,并在1947年分裂。该条约划分了印度河流域六条河流的用水权,赋予印度控制拉维河、比亚斯河和萨特莱杰河等东部河流的权利;同时规定巴基斯坦保持对西部印度河、杰卢姆河和杰纳布河的用水权。鉴于两国都依赖印度河流域供水系统来灌溉农田,该协议成为该地区和平的基础。 印度评论称,该条约对巴基斯坦非常“”,巴基斯坦虽然位于下游,但基本上获得了。该条约规定,印度不得建造限制或改变西部河流流向的基础设施——除了有限的农业用途和水力发电。直到今年4月单方面退出之前,即使在与巴基斯坦的战争中,印度通常也遵守该条约。 暂停该协议对巴基斯坦的经济构成重大风险,农业占其经济的 。区域水资源专家Himanshu Thakkar告诉喀拉拉邦报纸 , “巴基斯坦的大部分灌溉、水力发电、电力生产和整体发展都严重依赖印度河流域。” 但目前尚不清楚印度在多大程度上有能力阻止流向巴基斯坦的水流。专家们认为,印度目前缺乏完全控制河流流量的大坝基础设施。尽管如此,5月4日,印度降低了Baglihar大坝的闸门,有效地将杰纳布河流向下游巴基斯坦的流量减少了高达90%,据 报道。据报道,类似的行动也计划在杰卢姆河上的Kishanganga项目上进行。 塔夫茨大学城市和环境政策与规划助理教授Hassan F. Khan在巴基斯坦报纸 上写道,虽然印度不能简单地阻止水流进入巴基斯坦,但在12月至5月的旱季,其违背条约的行为会更加明显:“更令人担忧的是旱季的情况,那时流域的流量较低,蓄水更加重要,时机也变得更加关键。” 印度可以将水作为武器的另一种方式是扣留洪水数据。印度前印度河水专员Pradeep Kumar Saxena在4月份告诉 通讯社,在暂停该协议后,该国可以停止与巴基斯坦分享数据,这在季风季节可能会造成不利影响。本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

摩城音乐传奇人物斯莫基·罗宾逊被前管家指控性侵 Latest News

摩城音乐传奇人物斯莫基·罗宾逊被前管家指控性侵

(SeaPRwire) - 洛杉矶 — 四名前Smokey Robinson的管家在周二提起诉讼,声称这位摩城音乐界的巨星在她们为他工作期间,多次对她们进行性侵犯和强奸。 该诉讼在洛杉矶高等法院提起,指控这些女性在2007年至2024年期间遭受了性侵犯,并违反了劳动法,包括恶劣的工作环境、非法长时间工作和缺乏报酬,因此要求至少5000万美元的赔偿。 尚未立即回复记者向这位85岁的Robinson的代表发出的置评请求。 这四名女性均表示,Robinson会等到独自一人和她们在他的洛杉矶住所时,不顾她们的反对,对她们进行性侵犯和强奸。 “我们认为Robinson先生是一个连环且病态的强奸犯,必须阻止他,”这些女性的律师John Harris在新闻发布会上说。 所有人都表示,她们最终因遭受性侵犯而辞职,尽管在某些情况下,这花了几年时间。所有人都表示,她们担心遭到报复、公开羞辱以及可能对其移民身份产生影响,因此不敢挺身而出。 “不得不告诉她们的丈夫和孩子这些卑鄙的行为,让她们充满了羞耻和尴尬,”Harris说。“因此,在与Robinson先生的可怕经历中,这四名女性都保持了沉默。” 他说,作为低收入者,她们也都害怕“错过发薪日,无法负担房租或为家人购买食物。” 所有四名女性都因隐私问题而隐瞒了她们的法定姓名,并在法庭文件中被标识为Jane Does。她们与律师一起出席了新闻发布会,但没有发言,并用口罩遮住了脸。 该诉讼还将Robinson的妻子Frances Robinson列为被告,声称她明知过去的性行为不端,却纵容了他的行为。诉讼还指责她造成了恶劣的工作环境,称她用包括种族歧视在内的语言辱骂她们。 一名女性说,她从2012年到2024年为Robinsons工作,在此期间至少被侵犯了20次。另一名女性说,她从2014年到2020年为他们工作,至少被侵犯了23次。另一名女性说,她在2024年辞职前为他们工作了一年,至少被侵犯了7次。第四名女性说,她还担任Frances Robinson的私人助理、发型师和厨师,为他们工作了18年,于2024年辞职。她提到了与其他女性类似的经历,但没有说明她被侵犯的频率。 这些女性,有些人在同一时间为Robinsons工作,她们也互相隐瞒了遭受袭击的故事,但现在正在因她们的经历而团结起来,律师说。她们拒绝在新闻发布会上透露她们是如何挺身而出并得知还有其他人的细节。 该诉讼要求基于性侵犯、攻击、非法监禁、性别暴力和其他指控的损害赔偿。 “显然,没有任何金钱可以补偿这些女性Robinson先生对她们所做的事情,”Harris说。但他表示,基于“Robinson先生卑鄙和应受谴责的不当行为的严重性”,5000万美元是合理的。 原告律师Herbert Hayden表示,虽然他们认为这些袭击值得刑事调查,但这些女性尚未提交警方报告,原因是与阻止她们挺身而出的担忧相同。 Robinson是摇滚名人堂和词曲作者名人堂的成员,是1960年代最大的热门歌曲创作人之一,无论是与他的乐队the Miracles还是作为独唱艺术家,他的歌曲包括“Tears of a Clown”和“The Tracks of My Tears”。 作为一名艺术家、制作人和为其他艺术家创作歌曲的词曲作者,他是底特律家乡的Motown Records音乐机器的核心人物。本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

哈佛大学与特朗普:美国顶尖大学面临联邦压力升级的时间线 “`

(SeaPRwire) - 联邦政府对 的压力正在进入一个决定性的新阶段。周一,Trump政府宣布将阻止美国最古老的大学接受任何新的联邦研究拨款,这标志着其重塑高等教育和孤立抵制机构的运动急剧升级。 教育部长Linda McMahon在一封给该大学的信中说:“Harvard不应再向联邦政府寻求拨款,因为不会提供任何拨款。” “Harvard将不再是公共资助机构,而是可以作为私人资助机构运作,利用其庞大的捐赠基金,并从其庞大的富有校友群体中筹集资金。” 此举增加了政府不断增长的要求:取消所有DEI项目,改革领导和招聘做法,并遵守关于学生纪律和教师监督的新规定。Harvard正在反击,并在4月份对政府提起了诉讼。 代表Harvard的律师 在给联邦官员的信中写道:“该大学不会放弃其独立性或放弃其宪法权利。” “Harvard和任何其他私立大学都不能允许自己被联邦政府接管。” 但尽管Harvard采取了强硬路线,但它仍然是一个异类。Columbia University,其大学营地在去年的新闻周期中尤为突出,也同样在3月份受到联邦拨款取消的威胁。该高等教育机构遵守了政府的要求,从而恢复了资金。 以下是Harvard与Trump政府之间的对抗如何升级的时间表: 3月31日:对Harvard的拨款审查 教育部、卫生与公众服务部以及美国总务管理局 于3月31日宣布,将审查颁发给Harvard的联邦合同和拨款,以确保符合其“公民权利责任”。审查包括评估2.556亿美元的合同和超过87亿美元的多年期拨款。 此次审查是政府反犹太主义工作组的一部分,该工作组是在2024年春季大学校园中出现的大量反犹事件之后成立的。 4月11日:向Harvard发出的信函 联邦官员 致函Harvard,其中包含该大学需要遵守的多项规定,才能维持与联邦政府的“财政关系”。 官员们给了该大学到2025年8月的时间,以承诺:改变其领导改革,以减少学生和未获得终身教职的教职员工的权力;确保基于绩效的招聘做法,而不考虑个人的种族或其他识别类别;在每个部门、领域和学生群体中采用“观点多样性”;并停止DEI项目和办公室。 Harvard还被要求立即改革其学生纪律规则——包括采用口罩禁令——并调查所有关于校园静坐和抗议活动的学生违规行为。官员们表示,该大学还应遵守美国国土安全部(U.S. Department of Homeland Security)的要求,并根据需要分享信息。 4月14日:Harvard对政府的回应 Harvard拒绝了这些要求,认为它们超越了法律范围。 律师写道:“Harvard仍然对大学为改善其社区中每个成员的体验所做的工作以及计划要做的工作持开放态度。但Harvard不准备同意超出本届或任何政府合法权限的要求。” 4月16日:DHS威胁要终止Harvard招收国际学生的能力 国土安全部部长Kristi Noem宣布,政府 将取消总计超过270万美元的两项对Harvard的拨款。她还警告说,该大学可能会失去招收国际学生的能力——国际学生占 学生人数的27.2%。 4月21日:Harvard对Trump政府提起诉讼 该大学起诉了政府,理由是违反了第一修正案,并指控在削减拨款资金方面存在不当程序。 该大学认为,取消拨款会危及Harvard的独立性和关键研究。 4月22日:Harvard加入其他大学,发表联合信函反对“政府干预” 美国学院与大学协会 (American Association of Colleges and Universities)于4月22日发表了一封信,其中提到了他们所说的“前所未有的政府过度干预和政治干预”,这正在危及美国的高等教育。该信断言,高等教育机构有权控制学校的课程、学生和教职员工。 Harvard University校长Alan Garber与高等教育领域的其他611位领导人一起签署了这封信。 5月2日:Trump采取行动撤销Harvard的免税地位 President Trump 声称他将撤销Harvard的免税地位。“这是他们应得的,”总统在他的社交媒体平台Truth Social上写道。 Harvard的一位发言人在给TIME的一份声明中表示,“没有撤销Harvard免税地位的法律依据。” 5月7日:Harvard将失去获得新的联邦研究拨款的机会 McMahon部长通知Harvard,它将不再有资格获得新的研究拨款,理由是不遵守联邦法律。本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

卡尼告诉特朗普加拿大“不卖”,特朗普回应“永不言败” Latest News

卡尼告诉特朗普加拿大“不卖”,特朗普回应“永不言败”

(SeaPRwire) - 加拿大总理马克·卡尼坐在唐纳德·特朗普总统旁边,得到了他希望加拿大人看到的片段:他告诉特朗普加拿大“不卖”。但在椭圆形办公室里,在记者面前的33分钟交流中,卡尼不得不耐心地等待,因为特朗普反复推销为什么加拿大应该成为美国的第51个州。 特朗普一再将这次会面描述为“友好”,但他的话却讲述了一个不同的故事。就在会晤开始前,特朗普在Truth Social上发帖称,美国正在向加拿大提供“免费军事保护”,美国不需要来自加拿大的能源、木材或在那里制造的汽车。“除了他们的友谊,我们不需要他们拥有的任何东西,希望我们永远保持这种友谊,”特朗普写道。 这是卡尼自上周率领加拿大自由党战胜保守党执政以来首次访问白宫。特朗普在会议开始时称卡尼为“非常好的人”,并称赞了他的竞选,指出卡尼的自由党此前在民意调查中落后。特朗普称卡尼的胜利是“政治史上最伟大的复出之一,甚至比我的更伟大”。卡尼也回报了赞美,称特朗普是“一位具有变革意义的总统”,并称赞特朗普“坚定地关注美国工人,确保你们的边境安全”,以及结束“芬太尼的祸害”和“确保世界安全”。 但当特朗普被问及是否仍然认为加拿大应该成为美国的第51个州时,卡尼开始感到不安。特朗普辩称,如果加拿大人加入美国,他们将支付更低的税收,并拥有更好的安全保障和更好的医疗保健。 卡尼准备好了一个回应,试图吸引特朗普购买和出售建筑物的经验。“正如你从房地产中了解到的,有些地方永远不会出售。我们现在坐的这个地方。你知道,白金汉宫,你也去过。在过去几个月的竞选活动中,我与加拿大的所有者会面后,它不出售——永远不会出售。但机会在于伙伴关系以及我们可以共同建设的东西。” 卡尼表示,他的政府致力于增加对加拿大安全的投资,并努力捍卫北极。但在他们会面的晚些时候,特朗普又回到了他的信念,即有一天加拿大将成为美国的一部分。 “永不言败,”特朗普说,这时,可以看到卡尼在记者大声提问时,嘴里说了五遍“永不”。 在为自己推动扩张美国辩护时,特朗普形容自己是“有艺术性的”,并且喜欢两国在地图上连接在一起时更大的边界形状。“这不一定是为期一天的交易。这是一个他们必须在一段时间内做出决定的事情,”特朗普说。 卡尼插话说。“恕我直言,加拿大人对此事的看法不会改变——关于第51个州。” 自从上任以来,特朗普对来自加拿大的钢铁和铝出口征收了25%的关税,对汽车和一些汽车零部件征收了25%的关税。包括用于作物肥料的钾肥在内的其他几种资源的关税为10%。作为报复,加拿大对啤酒、橙汁、花生酱、葡萄酒和烈酒以及电器和其他商品设定了25%的目标关税。 两国计划在全面会谈中就这些税率进行谈判,这也可能重新开放United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement,即USMCA,该协议于2020年7月取代了北美自由贸易协定。特朗普周二表示,他愿意完全取消USMCA。“我们确实会在明年左右进行谈判,以调整或终止它,”特朗普说。卡尼表示,就他而言,USMCA是“更广泛谈判”的基础,并表示“其中一些事情必须改变”。 由于特朗普继续坚持认为加拿大有一天可能会与美国合并,美国总统似乎意识到,他与卡尼的会面可能会演变成一场全面的对抗,就像现在臭名昭著的2月下旬椭圆形办公室会议一样,乌克兰总统Volodymyr Zelensky拒绝在没有美国的安全保证的情况下同意与俄罗斯停火。 “这非常友好,”特朗普说,好像说出这个词本身就会让它成为现实。“这不会像——我们与其他人发生了一点争吵——那是一件非常不同的事情。这是一个非常友好的谈话。”本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。
