G7商讨设立常设机构 监督关键矿产议程

（伦敦/布鲁塞尔综合电）据知情者透露，七国集团（G7）成员国正在磋商设立常设秘书处，以确保旨在增加关键矿产供应的倡议，不受轮值主席国的更替影响。

中国主导着国防、能源转型和制造业所需的关键矿产的生产，全球发达国家正在寻求减少对中国的依赖。美国和欧盟上个月同意，深化在锂、钴和稀土等关键矿产方面的协调合作。

但两名消息人士说，欧洲已拒绝建立单一共享储备库的想法，倾向于各国自行掌控本国储备；欧洲各国政府也不希望由美国主导这个项目，担心在危机时期可能无法获得关键矿产。

自今年初以来，欧盟一直在意大利、法国和德国牵头下，推进自身的试点储备项目。

消息人士说，新的秘书处可能设在国际能源署（IEA）或经济合作与发展组织（OECD）。两者的总部都位于巴黎。

五名消息人士说，目前还不清楚秘书处何时能够成立，但它可能有助于落实6月G7领导人会议就关键原材料作出的任何决定，其中包括储备措施。

法国财政部发言人和国际能源署拒绝对此置评。经合组织则未立即回应路透社的置评请求。

两名消息人士说，国际能源署已在制定计划，以协调关键矿产的储备与生产。

国际能源署星期二（5月5日）在布鲁塞尔与政府及行业代表举行工作坊，讨论矿产储备问题。发言人说，会议旨在探讨技术细节，并了解业界对设计有效储备体系的看法。

路透社消息说，截至4月20日，已登记参会的政府包括美国、德国、法国、加拿大、意大利和西班牙。欧盟委员会也已登记参会。

根据国际能源署发送给参会者的一份文件，预计参会的企业包括通用汽车、嘉能可（Glencore）、莱昂纳多公司（Leonardo）和优美科（Umicore）。

G7周四开会讨论打破中国垄断地位

担任G7轮值主席国的法国星期二宣布，将于星期四（7日）召开线上G7会议，讨论如何打破中国对关键材料的垄断。财政部长莱斯屈尔告诉记者，此次会议旨在为6月中旬在法国埃维昂（Evian）举行的G7领导人峰会做准备。

莱斯屈尔指出，中国通过大规模投资和定价政策占据市场绝大部分份额，迫使潜在竞争对手退出。

“我们正在G7框架内考虑的一个项目，就是效仿1970年代石油输出国组织（OPEC）垄断生产时成立国际能源署的做法，通过国际合作开发替代方案。”

美国贸易代表格里尔星期二到巴黎参加为期两天的G7贸易部长会议。他当天与欧盟首席贸易谈判代表塞夫乔维奇举行会谈，塞夫乔维奇敦促美国遵守与欧盟达成的关税协议。

美欧去年7月达成协议，将欧盟大部分商品的关税设定为15%，但美国总统特朗普上周指欧盟未履行协议，威胁要将欧洲汽车和卡车的关税提高到25%。

巴基斯坦总理谢里夫说，希望当前美国与伊朗谈判的势头，能够给中东带来和平。

谢里夫星期三（5月6日）在社媒平台X上贴文说，巴基斯坦非常希望美伊当前的谈判势头能促成一项持久协议，从而为冲突地区乃至更广泛地区带来持久的和平与稳定。

美国新闻网站Axios当天早些时候引述消息人士报道，白宫认为已接近与伊朗就一份一页的谅解备忘录达成协议，以结束战争，并为更详细的核谈判设定框架。

路透社报道称，一名参与谈判的巴基斯坦消息人士证实这个消息，并称相关“已经接近尾声”。

美国总统特朗普前一天在社媒宣布，在继续全面封锁霍尔木兹海峡的情况下，暂停美方主导的海峡航运疏导计划，以观察美伊能否最终敲定并签署协议。

谢里夫在贴文中感谢特朗普“展现出的魄力和领导力，以及及时宣布暂停霍尔木兹海峡‘自由计划’的决定”。

他还说，特朗普对巴基斯坦和其他兄弟国家，特别是沙特阿拉伯王国提出的请求，做出宽容的回应，“这将极大地促进本地区在这个敏感时期的和平、稳定与和解”。

• Summary

• DHS assessment found Iran war may have contributed to motive
• FBI examining anti-Trump posts linked to suspect
• Investigators cite multiple ‘social and political grievances’

WASHINGTON, May 6 (Reuters) – The U.S. Department of Homeland Security identified the U.S.-Israeli war with Iran as a potential motive for the man accused of attempting ​to assassinate President Donald Trump and senior members of his administration at a White House reporters’ gala last month, according to an ‌intelligence report sent to state and local law enforcement nationwide and other federal agencies.

The report, a preliminary assessment by the Department of Homeland Security’s Office of Intelligence and Analysis dated April 27, assessed that the suspect Cole Allen had “multiple social and political grievances.” It concluded that the Iran conflict “may have contributed to his decision to conduct the attack,” citing social ​media posts from Allen that criticized U.S. actions in the war.

The assessment sheds new light on the U.S. government’s search for a motive ​in the foiled attack on the White House Correspondents’ Dinner on April 25. Its conclusions, while preliminary, offer the most ⁠definitive evidence to date that the Iran conflict, which has killed thousands in the Middle East and rattled the global economy, could have been a trigger.

The ​report, marked as a “Critical Incident Note,” was obtained through open records requests by the transparency nonprofit Property of the People and shared with Reuters.

Spokespeople for DHS and ​the U.S. Justice Department did not immediately respond to requests for comment. The FBI declined to comment.

On Tuesday, the U.S. Justice Department added a charge of assault on a federal officer, accusing Allen of firing at a U.S. Secret Service agent at a security checkpoint, in addition to attempted assassination, discharge of a firearm during a crime of violence, and illegal ​transportation of a firearm and ammunition across state lines. He has not yet entered a plea.

FBI EXAMINES SOCIAL MEDIA

U.S. officials have so far said little ​about Allen’s alleged motivation, pointing only to an email Allen sent to relatives on the night of the attack. The message, which officials have called a manifesto, expressed anger ‌at the ⁠administration and referred to his desire to target the “traitor” giving a speech, without mentioning Trump by name.

In court documents, prosecutors have alleged that Allen “disagreed” with Trump politically and “wanted to ‘fight back’ against government policies and decisions that he found morally objectionable.”

The FBI has been carrying out a detailed examination of Allen’s social media activity and digital footprint in searching for a motive for the attack, a senior law enforcement official told Reuters, speaking on the condition of anonymity.

“It’s being closely looked ​at,” the official told Reuters.

The examination ​includes a review of posts on ⁠a Bluesky social media account linked to Allen that posted and shared a range of anti-Trump messages in the weeks leading up to the attack. The posts include criticism of the U.S. actions in Iran but also broadsides against ​the Trump administration on immigration enforcement, Elon Musk, and Russia’s war on Ukraine.

The account shared a post calling for ​Trump to be impeached ⁠over his April 7 threat to destroy Iranian civilization, which came hours before Trump agreed to a ceasefire. It also shared criticism of reporters who planned to attend the press dinner.

The FBI has also reviewed a 2024 post in which an account connected to Allen, while quoting a Bible verse, appears to call Trump “the devil” in ⁠response to ​a message from Trump’s daughter Tiffany.

The focus on Allen’s online activity is in part to stave ​off conspiracy theories about the motive and online activity of the suspected shooter, the official said, adding that speculation about the online activity of the man who fired at Trump during a ​2024 campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, had sparked widely spread conspiracy theories.

世界卫生组织总干事谭德塞指出，三名疑似汉坦病毒感染者已从游轮撤离，正在前往荷兰接受治疗。

路透社报道，谭德塞星期三（5月6日）说，这次撤离了两名船员和一名乘客，是世卫组织、游轮荷兰运营商泛海探险公司（Oceanwide Expeditions）以及佛得角、英国和荷兰的国家卫生部门协调进行。

他说：“世卫组织将继续与船舶运营商合作，密切监测乘客和船员的健康状况，并与各国合作在必要时提供适当的医疗后续支持和撤离。”

他强调，汉坦病毒疫情对公众健康的威胁“仍然很低”。

荷兰外交部称，一名荷兰公民、一名英国公民和一名德国公民已从游轮上撤离。

另外，据德国媒体报道，一名曾乘坐游轮并感染汉坦病毒的德国公民，将被送往德国杜塞尔多夫市的一家医院接受检测。但报道称，这名女子没有出现任何症状。

这艘游轮已出现七起确诊或疑似汉坦病毒感染病例。其中，一对荷兰夫妇和一名德国公民已死亡，一名英国人则已从船上移送到南非接受重症监护。另三起疑似病例仍在船上，其中一人轻微发烧。

Fruit-flavored e-cigarettes for adults OK’d by FDA in major shift under Trump

2026-05-06T05:39:00-0400 / CBS News

Updated on: May 6, 2026 / 7:51 AM EDT / CBS/AP

Washington — The Food and Drug Administration on Tuesday announced its first authorization of fruit-flavored electronic cigarettes intended for adult smokers, a major policy shift that comes after months of appeals to President Trump from the vaping industry.

The decision is certain to be opposed by health groups and parent organizations that have long pointed to flavors as the driver behind underage vaping in the U.S. But the federal action comes as teen vaping rates have dropped to a 10-year low and manufacturers have pushed the Republican administration to loosen restrictions on their products.

Vaping companies have long made the case that their products can help blunt the toll of smoking among adults, which is blamed for 480,000 U.S. deaths annually due to cancer, lung disease and heart disease. The battery-powered devices have been sold in the U.S. since 2007, but their potential benefits have been overshadowed for years by uptake among middle and high school students.

The newly authorized e-cigarettes come in mango, blueberry and two varieties of menthol. Los Angeles-based vaping company Glas Inc. plans to market the flavors under the names Gold, Sapphire, Classic Menthol and Fresh Menthol, according to the FDA release.

Previously, the FDA had only granted permission to tobacco or menthol-flavored vaping products. Most e-cigarettes approved by regulators come from large manufacturers, including Juul and Altria.

Tuesday’s announcement is not an approval or endorsement, and the FDA reiterated that the Glas vapes are only intended for adults interested in quitting or cutting back on cigarettes.

The FDA suggested the company’s digital age-verification system makes it unlikely the products will be picked up by underage users. Users must first verify their age with a government ID on their cellphone. The e-cigarettes can then only be used when connected via Bluetooth to the phone of the verified user.

The FDA’s OK of the new fruity products will be “a key test case,” said Kathy Crosby of the Truth Initiative, an anti-tobacco nonprofit.

“Ultimately, it’s critical that we remain vigilant in protecting young people, including closely monitoring the use of authorized products,” Crosby said in an emailed statement.

The FDA stressed in a press release that it “will closely monitor how these products are marketed and will act appropriately if the company fails to comply with any applicable statutory or regulatory requirements. The FDA may suspend or withdraw authorization if the agency determines that continued marketing of the authorized products is no longer appropriate for the protection of the public health, including if there is a notable increase in use of the products among youth, or evidence that the benefits of the products no longer outweigh the risks.”

As a presidential candidate, Mr. Trump vowed to “save” vaping and won backing from e-cigarette companies, shop owners and vaping enthusiasts.

Under President Joe Biden, the FDA denied more than a million marketing applications for candy- or fruit-flavored products, part of a wider crackdown that is credited with helping drive down teen vaping after a surge in 2019. During his first administration, Mr. Trump put in place the first flavor restrictions on e-cigarettes and raised the age for purchasing all tobacco products from 18 to 21.

Action on vaping and other tobacco policies has largely taken a backseat under FDA Commissioner Marty Makary, who has focused on a slate of other priorities, including restricting COVID-19 vaccines, phasing out artificial food dyes and speeding up approval of some innovative drugs.

But groups such as the Vapor Technology Association have met with administration officials in recent weeks calling for more action on flavors.

And The Wall Street Journal reports that the FDA approval came after Mr. Trump pressured Makary to approve the flavored vapes, which he’d been refusing to do.

In March, the FDA released its first-ever guidance to industry on flavors, stating that menthol, coffee, mint and spice flavors could have a role in appealing to adult smokers. The same document also reiterated the risks of sweeter flavors that tend to appeal to teens, such as fruit, candy and dessert flavors.

The vast majority of U.S. teens who vape continue to use unauthorized fruit- and candy-flavored products, according to the latest government data. Those products are technically illegal but remain widely available in cheap, disposable brands typically imported from China.

（里约热内卢综合电）南美洲国家巴西一名13岁学生在校园内枪杀两名教职员，另造成两人受伤。这名学生已被捕。

这起事件发生于当地时间星期二（5月5日），事发学校是巴西西北部阿克里州首府约布兰科的圣若泽中学（Sao Jose Institute），枪手是这所学校的学生。

州宪兵方面告诉记者，这名学生从家里偷拿继父的枪入校，在通往校长办公室的走廊里开枪射击，造成两名教职员死亡、一名学生腿部中弹受伤，一名教职工脚部中弹受伤。

发动袭击后，他向警方投降。学生的继父也被拘捕。

目击者称，事发时校内学生非常恐慌，纷纷趴倒在地，试图用椅子挡住身体，有学生试图翻墙逃离，还有人困在学校屋顶上逃生。
