00:00Hello everyone, welcome to Mediantv, here is your international press interview.
00:09We start it with the Chad where a fire broke out in the capital Jamena, in a military ammunition depot.
00:16There have been several deaths last night, the world informs us.
00:19The sky of the city appeared literally without fire above the district of Goudji and its powder keg,
00:24journalists from the French press agency reported that many projectiles of all calibers were propelled into the sky,
00:31exploding at regular intervals.
00:33Many and very powerful detonations resonated for two hours,
00:36shaking buildings sometimes up to 6 or 7 km from the scene,
00:41before ceasing in the middle of the night on social networks.
00:45Chadian President Mahamad Idris Debintno did not hesitate to present his sincere condolences to the families of the wounded,
00:51without specifying the nature of the fire or the number of victims,
00:56in order to confirm that an investigation will be opened to determine the causes and situate the responsibilities.
01:03It is a historic upheaval for the Svenska Dagbladet.
01:08The Swedish Parliament approved a controversial defense agreement with the United States.
01:13The Swedish national daily specifies that the elected officials adopted a large majority.
01:18A text signed by Stockholm and Washington in December,
01:21allowing the US forces to access 17 bases of Swedish defense
01:25and to store military equipment, weapons and ammunition in the country.
01:29This agreement is a major revolution in the Swedish defense policy,
01:33which renounced in March two centuries of non-annulment military by joining NATO.
01:38If opponents fear that this agreement will open the way to the deployment of nuclear weapons
01:42and the installation of permanent US bases in Sweden,
01:45the government in place, supported by the far right,
01:48has ensured that the agreement respected Swedish sovereignty.
01:51The Minister of Defense, Paul Jönsson, has on his part stated
01:54that no country will be able to force Sweden to have nuclear weapons on its soil.
02:02An impressive statistic to continue this tour of the world, 410,000,
02:06is the number of procurations carried out in France for the anticipated legislative elections,
02:11which will take place from June 30 to July 7, explains Le Parisien.
02:16This impressive figure is due in part to the fact that some French people,
02:20deprived of the dissolution of the National Assembly,
02:23were already busy during the dates planned for these elections,
02:26on Sundays, June 30 and July 7.
02:29But it also demonstrates a real interest for this election,
02:32where participation could be at a high level.
02:34The French daily specifies, however, that these procurations
02:37do not come from the abstentionist population, but rather from the usual electorate,
02:41emphasizes the sociologist Baptiste Coulmont,
02:43adding that the procuration does not mobilize the abstentionists.
02:47The latest polls announce a participation of around 63% for these elections,
02:51which is much higher than the legislative of 2022,
02:54during which the rate oscillated between 45% and 46%.
02:58This rise in procurations could be an indicator of a phenomenon
03:01of barriers to the National Assembly,
03:03winner of the last European elections at the beginning of the month.
03:06However, we can expect an over-mobilization of the far-right,
03:09nuance Rémi Lefebvre, professor of political science at the University of Lille.
03:13It is therefore impossible to know how these procurations
03:16will play on the result of the election.
03:20Still in the hexagon, the COVID-19 does not seem to have said its last word,
03:25since a new wave seems to be drawing in France.
03:28La Dépêche is worried about the rise of positive cases of the coronavirus
03:32in recent days, even in France,
03:34taking up the many figures of SOS Médecins or Médecine Générale.
03:39Passages aux urgences pour suspicion de COVID-19
03:42are at an increase of 52% over a week on all age groups,
03:46according to the latest newspaper published by Santé Publique France,
03:49especially in those under the age of 15,
03:51where an increase of 123% has been observed in recent days.
03:55However, the French newspaper states that the situation remains under surveillance,
03:58even if this epidemic recovery remains modest.
04:01One of the reasons for this recovery is the Tyler Swift effect,
04:04since many fans of the American pop singer,
04:07who performed in Paris last May,
04:09posted on social networks with positive COVID tests,
04:13reminding that the risk of clusters is still present.
04:16France hopes to avoid a new wave of coronavirus,
04:19as it welcomes in a little over a month
04:21athletes and spectators from all over the world
04:23for the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris,
04:26scheduled for July 26 to August 11.
04:32And we end this tour of the world with the New York Times,
04:34which evokes a new phenomenon in your mailboxes.
04:37Stop spamming, now put it in the Slop.
04:40It's a new kind of unwanted mail,
04:42straight from artificial intelligence.
04:45Its generalization has caused the propagation of images and videos
04:48generated by artificial intelligence, which is called Slop.
04:51Originally, this term, popularized by online forums,
04:54refers to the pile of mud that accumulates in the bottom of the ship's cisterns,
04:58and it has simply become part of the Internet language.
05:01Unlike conventional robots, Slop is not interactive
05:05and does not seek to meet the consumer's needs.
05:08According to The Guardian, it exists mainly
05:10to give the appearance of content created by humans,
05:13generate advertising revenue,
05:15and direct the attention of search engines to other sites.
05:18This denomination clearly allows Internet users
05:21to put an appeal on content generated by artificial intelligence
05:25and not checked in advance,
05:27in order to be best sensitized, possibly at the risk of Internet.
05:33Thank you all for following us.
05:35This is the end of this international press review.
05:37The news continues on Mediain TV.
