*German Chancellor Angela Merkel claimed victory for a new center-right government after elections propelled her Christian Democratic Union party (CDU) and the pro-business Free Democratic Party (FDP) to a majority. Many had expected Merkel would stay chancellor for a second four-year term, because she had her choice of joining political forces with the FDP or staying with the center-left Social Democrats (SPD), with whom her party has been allied for the past four years in the "grand coalition." Although Merkel's conservatives and the FDP ran on reducing taxes to boost consumer confidence and the economy, cuts will likely have to wait at least a year, economists predicted, as Germany works to recover from its worst recession since World War II. Nuclear energy is also set to be revived. With the CDU and the FDP both supportive of nuclear energy, their coalition agreement is slated to address the country's nuclear phase-out plan, which foresees all German reactors to be shut down by 2021.
ニュースアニメ「独連邦議会選でメルケル首相勝利。大連立を解消、保守中道政権発足へ」
ドイツ連邦議会（下院）選挙は、メルケル首相率いる保守派のキリスト教民主・社会同盟（ＣＤＵ・ＣＳＵ）が第１党となり、メルケル首相が続投する公算となった。メルケル首相は、４年にわたる社会民主党（ＳＰＤ）との「大連立」に終止符を打ち、新たに自由民主党（ＦＤＰ）との連立を目指す。選挙結果を受け、メルケル首相は戦後最悪の景気後退に見舞われたドイツ経済を回復させるために最善の政治体制と主張していた中道右派政権の樹立が可能になる。次期政権は、財政赤字、失業問題、銀行の貸し渋りに伴う信用収縮といった経済問題への対応を迫られる。ＦＤＰと連立を組んだ次期メルケル政権は、減税、ドイツ鉄道などの政府保有株の放出を目指すほか、ＳＰＤとの大連立で打ち出した脱原発路線の転換を図るとみられている。

Watch it!
The Venezuelan government was ready to provide Southern American states with full information on its arms deal with Russia, Vice President Ramîn Carrizàlez has said. Venezuela plans to increase its defense capability over a possible increase in U.S. military personnel in neighboring Colombia and alleged U.S. plan to invade Venezuela and seize its oil fields. Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez announced plans to create a multi-layered air defense network that will comprise Russian-made S-300, Buk-M2 and Pechora air defense systems to ensure the protection of Venezuelan air space and key infrastructure from various ranges, with the help of a Russian $2.2 billion loan. The deal with Russia, struck during a visit to Moscow by Chavez last week, also includes the purchase of 92 T-72 main battle tanks and an undisclosed number of Smerch multiple launch rocket systems (MLRS). Between 2005 and 2007, Moscow and Caracas signed 12 contracts worth more than $4.4 billion to supply arms to Venezuela, including fighter jets, helicopters and Kalashnikov assault rifles.
ニュースアニメ「ロシア、武器輸出でベネズエラに２０００億円の融資」
南米ベネズエラの大統領府は、ロシアから戦車などの兵器調達で総額約２２億米ドル（約２０００億円）の融資を受けると発表した。ベネズエラのチャベス大統領は、ロシアやリビアなど９カ国歴訪を終え帰国している。融資は、Ｔ－７２型戦車９２両、９０キロ、３００キロが射程の短距離ミサイルなどが対象。また、ベネズエラ軍兵士がロシアで訓練も受けるとしている。反米の社会主義路線を進めるチャベス大統領は
帰国後、ロシア製短距離ミサイルが近く到着すると述べていた。ただし、自衛目的のミサイル調達とし、他国への攻撃には使用しないと言明。コロンビアで麻薬密輸組織掃討を目指す駐留米軍増強が進んでいることを踏まえた発言とみられる。ベネズエラ、ロシア両国の軍事協力は２００５年以降、顕著になり自動攻撃小銃のライセンス生産などロシア製兵器の輸出は増大している。ロシア海空軍の艦船、航空機のベネズエラ寄港も目立ち、米国へのけん制の狙いがあるとみられる。

It wasnt the approval that won; it was the dissatisfaction that lost.
Japanese voters overwhelmingly rejected the party that has largely ruled their nation for most of the past half a century, choosing instead an untested rival to grapple with an enfeebled economy and an aging society. Japan's opposition swept to a historic victory in elections on August 30th, crushing the ruling conservative party and assuming the daunting task of pulling the economy out of its worst slump since World War II. Prime Minister Taro Aso conceded defeat just a couple hours after polls had closed, suggesting he would quit as president of the Liberal Democratic Party, which has ruled Japan for all but 11 months since 1955. Unemployment, deflation and an aging, shrinking population have left families fearful of what the future holds. Fed up with the LDP, voters turned overwhelmingly to the opposition Democratic Party of Japan, which ran a populist-leaning platform with plans for cash handouts to families with children and expanding the social safety net. The historic change in government could usher in a new era for Japanese politics that replaces the staid consensus that guided Japan in its postwar boom years with a more fractious, competitive environment.
第４５回総選挙は民主党が圧勝した。政権の担い手は民主党を中心とする政党へと移り、民主党代表の鳩山由紀夫氏が首相に就任する。劇的な政権交代である。明らかなのは、民主党が大勝利したというより、自民党が自壊して大敗したということだ。自民党に投票してきた人々の離反である。だからこそ、民主党へのネガティブ・キャンペーンを続ける麻生首相への不満が強かった。「オレたちはあんたと自民党がダメだと言ってるんだ、人を批判するより自民党がどう変わるか言え！」と。

A little too late to straighten things up.
*Taiwan's President Ma Ying-jeou apologized again today for the slow response to Typhoon Morakot and said he plans sweeping changes to the country's rescue agencies and may punish some government officials. As of August 11, official figures on known damage caused by the typhoon were 127 deaths, 307 missing and 45 injured, as well as economic losses of about $37.1 million. As many as 600 people may have died in the island's most serious natural calamity for 200 years, according to Taiwan media. The Taiwanese public has criticized the government for imprecise forecasts of the strength of the typhoon and the areas it would hit. They also complained of long delays in rescue efforts and uncaring attitudes toward victims in the immediate aftermath of the storm. Taiwan's Ministry of Foreign Affairs initially instructed Taiwan's embassies to refuse offers of foreign aid. Though it is a little late, trying to repair its image a foreign minister official said that the government asked major world donors for equipment, which were initially refused before. The ministry has approached Japan, the United States and European countries for supplies such as large helicopters and mobile homes.
ニュースアニメ「台風８号被害拡大 台湾政権揺るがす 『対応遅すぎ』批判集中」
死者が五百人を超える見通しとなった台風８号による災害の対応をめぐり、台湾の馬英九総統に対する批判が高まる一方だ。最高幹部による国家安全会議の招集が台風上陸の一週間後など、初動の遅れはもはや政権にとって致命的。被害の拡大が見込まれる中、馬英九総統は15日、台風8号の深刻な被害に対する政府の対応の遅れで批判を受け「もっとうまく対処できたはず。当然謝らなければならない。申し訳ない」と公式に謝罪した。批判は当初、中央気象局が大雨とその危険性について十分に注意喚起できなかったことだったが、初動の遅れや軍、救助員の投入量の不足などの手落ちが目立った。メディアの早くからの指摘にもかかわらず、高雄県の村での約500人生き埋めの確認が遅れたことなども市民の怒りを買った。さらに強烈な非難を浴びているのは、世界各国からの援助をいったん断ったことだ。米国をはじめ、日本やシンガポール、欧州連合（EU）諸国などは早くから援助を申し出ていたが、外交部は11日、在外公館に「丁重に断るように」と打電した。馬総統や行政院の劉兆玄院長は「外交部の重大な失態」と不満を表明しているが、市民や野党・民進党は責任のたらい回しのような失態に、名指しで政権幹部の罷免を求めている。紆余曲折を経て外交部は14日、米国が救難活動のための軍用機を出動させることに合意。1979年の米台断交後初めて、米軍が人道援助名目で台湾に上陸した。

Benefits from a drilled tactics.
Bill Clinton let North Korea's little dictator play the big man and flew home with the two American women journalists sprung early from imprisonment by the rogue Communist regime. Clinton's successful rescue bid marked a return to the international spotlight for the former President and also set the stage for a possible breakthrough on renewing nuclear disarmament talks with the U.S. While the White House emphasized the private nature of Clinton's trip, his landmark visit to Pyongyang to free the Americans was a coup that came at a time of heightened tensions over North Korea's nuclear program. A senior Obama administration official revealed last night that North Korean officials had told the women's families they would release them if Bill Clinton came. North Koreans claimed that Clinton brought a message from Obama, but the White House heatedly denied sending any back-channel communications. White House spokesman Robert Gibbs told reporters that "That's not true" and called Clinton's trip a strictly private, humanitarian mission. The White House cautioned not to expect a softening of the U.S. stance and that Kim should not expect a change in U.S. policy
ニュースアニメ「クリントン元大統領訪朝」
５カ月近くに及んだ北朝鮮での米女性記者２人の拘束は、クリントン元大統領が今月４日に訪朝し、金正日総書記と会談することで解決をみた。大統領経験者で、現職国務長官の夫であるクリントン氏が、北の指名で訪朝することについて、オバマ政権は当初から乗り気でなかった。国際的な孤立を深める金正日政権が、政治宣伝に訪朝を利用することは目に見えていたからだ。このため、ジョーンズ補佐官はクリントン氏に対し、「（訪朝目的を）記者の釈放に限定し、核問題では一切交渉しない」、「訪朝はあくまで私的な行動とする」の２点を政権の方針として伝え、了承を得た。さらに、米政府機を貸与しないことや、元大統領の警護官以外に連邦政府職員を同行させないことなどをクリントン氏に伝達。北の宣伝効果を抑えるため、金総書記との接触で「笑顔を見せないこと」との注意も伝えられた。朝鮮中央通信が繰り返す「クリントン氏の謝罪」「オバマ大統領からのメッセージ伝達」といった宣伝について、ギブズ大統領報道官、クリントン国務長官は「事実ではない」として、全面否定している。
