China News Service, June 2 (BBC) said that since the outbreak of the New Crown Outbreak, some major international issues have been pushed back into the spotlight. In addition to the epidemic situation, the BBC reporter sorted out the five major international issues that we should pay attention to in the future. The full text is excerpted as follows:

Data Figure: AN-602 hydrogen bomb shell replication model. The AN602 hydrogen bomb is also known as the "czar bomb". Its power is the highest in human history. It is more than 3,000 times the atomic bomb dropped by the United States on Hiroshima, and its explosion equivalent reached 58 million tons.

Is the nuclear race rekindled?

　　According to reports, the New Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty, which limits the nuclear deterrent capabilities of the United States and Russia, will expire in February 2021. Although the Russian side expressed its desire to renew the treaty, the Trump administration wanted to redraft a new comprehensive treaty, which caused uncertainty.

　　It is reported that if the "New Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty" is not extended, it will increase the possibility of a new round of nuclear arms race threats.

Tensions in US-Iran relations have escalated?

　　In addition, the follow-up effect caused by the US withdrawal from the "Iran Comprehensive Agreement on the Nuclear Issue" is very serious.

　　According to the UN resolution supporting Iran’s nuclear issue agreement, the arms embargo on Iran will expire in October 2020. Trump hopes that the European countries will start another mechanism in the nuclear agreement to restore extensive economic sanctions against Iran.

　　In this regard, Iranian President Rouhani has warned that if the United States delays the embargo against Iran, it will lead to "serious consequences."

　　Now the White House's argument seems to be that Iran should insist on fulfilling its obligations under the nuclear agreement that the United States has abandoned, otherwise it will face new sanctions. A senior US official in the Obama era described Trump's approach as "having both fish and bear's paws."

　　It is reported that the relationship between the United States and Iran will become worse, and the tension between the United States and European allies will increase.

Is Israel planning to annex the West Bank?

　　The protracted Israeli elections have finally ended, and Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu will continue to be in power for some time to come. At present, Netanyahu has proposed a highly controversial ruling agenda, including, annexation of the current Jewish settlements in the West Bank, making it a permanent territory of Israel.

　　The plan was opposed by the Palestinian people and the international community, but the US position is still unclear. There are reports that the United States may have conditions to support Israel’s annexation of settlements in the West Bank, provided that Israel agrees to start negotiations on Palestinian statehood. The report analyzes that the hardliners in Israel will not accept the condition of Palestinian statehood. Perhaps, Americans will intervene. However, the road ahead is destined to be bumpy.

On January 31, local time, the United Kingdom issued a newly minted 50 pence coin to commemorate the UK's departure from the European Union on January 31, local time. The commemorative coin is engraved with the words "share peace, prosperity and friendship" and the date "January 31, 2020".

Brexit is tight

　　The Brexit clock is still ticking, and December 31, 2020 is the limit of the Brexit transition period. Negotiations on the future relationship between the UK and the EU have resumed, but there is no indication that the British Prime Minister Johnson and his government are considering extending the transition period.

　　According to reports, both sides will face losses if Britain leaves the EU. Perhaps the new crown epidemic will help foster consensus and guide the future relationship between the two parties. However, in the face of the dual pressures of an economic recession and seeking a way out on a more unfriendly international stage, the UK will face more difficult choices when making important economic and diplomatic decisions.

Australian scientists said that this is the Great Barrier Reef "calling for emergency assistance." People should take action to deal with climate change. .

　Climate change-a super serious problem

　　According to reports, the issue of climate change is the biggest and most complex global challenge facing the international community.

　　How to get the climate change process back on track is just one of the challenges. The more important question is, in the context of the new crown epidemic, how will the "mindset" of the international community change?

　　Will the sense of urgency and purpose be reborn? To what extent will the new international order allow the international community to act quickly on this issue?
