Kate Bullivant: 本期新闻报道了美国多个港口码头工人罢工事件,导致港口关闭,对美国经济造成重大影响,并分析了罢工事件对即将到来的总统大选的不确定性影响。同时,报道还涵盖了以色列对黎巴嫩的军事行动,以及空客A220飞机发动机问题对航空业的影响。 Paul Berger: 报道了美国东海岸和墨西哥湾沿岸港口发生的近50年来最大规模的码头工人罢工事件,罢工对经济和即将到来的总统大选都带来不确定性。码头工人计划继续罢工,港口将保持关闭状态。 Jon Sindreu: 空客A220飞机的发动机耐久性问题导致大量飞机停飞,维修频率过高,对航空公司造成经济和运营不便。发动机问题不仅影响A220飞机,也影响空客其他机型,新一代发动机为了追求燃油效率而牺牲了耐用性,引发了关于飞机寿命和环保的讨论。A220飞机被寄予厚望,是空客未来战略的重要组成部分,但发动机问题对其未来战略造成威胁,对小型航空公司影响尤其严重,大型航空公司也受到重大影响。发动机制造商正在努力解决问题,但航空业面临的零部件短缺问题加剧了困境,航空业面临飞行员和零部件短缺,发动机问题进一步加剧了困境。 Matthew Miller: 美国政府支持以色列自卫权,但希望通过外交途径解决冲突,警告伊朗不要报复以色列的行动,并增派战机到该地区以震慑伊朗。 Harold Daggett: 码头工人罢工行动规模巨大,参与人数众多,他们决心继续罢工。
