1. Germany Adopts a More Muscular Security Plan. Criticism Follows.

For the first time since the end of World War II, the German government has unveiled a comprehensive national security strategy meant to confront Germany’s vulnerability to new military, economic and geopolitical threats, including climate change. Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, which took place months after the German government took power, has heightened the sense of urgency that Germany must take up military responsibilities in a way it had long avoided. The strategy was announced as a key part of the coalition agreement of Chancellor Olaf Scholz’s government when it took office in December 2021. But squabbling delayed the new plan and left it vulnerable to criticism that it has been overly watered down.

▶take up : 계속하다, 시작하다, ~을 차지하다.
▶take office : 취임하다.

▶coalition [│koʊə│lɪʃn]
1(둘 이상의 정당으로 구성된) 연립 정부, 연정
2(특히 정치적인) 연합체

▶be watered down : 물 타기 하다, 희석하다. 약해지다

At least 79 people drowned southwest of Greece after a large boat carrying migrants sank early Wednesday, Greek authorities said, in the deadliest such episode off the country’s coast since 2015. More than 100 people were rescued, but the Greek coast guard warned that the death toll would probably increase. The cause of the sinking was unclear as of Wednesday afternoon. A Greek shipping ministry official said the boat was traveling to Italy from Libya. After the sinking, Greek authorities said, the coast guard and military deployed a large number of vessels to reach survivors and locate the dead. It was unclear how many people were still missing by late Wednesday.

3. Google’s Online Advertising Practices Violate Antitrust Laws, EU Says

Google on Wednesday was charged with violating European Union antitrust laws by using its dominance in online advertising to undercut rivals, the latest in a string of cases around the world that strike at the core of the internet giant’s business model. The case was brought by the European Commission, the executive branch of the 27-nation European Union, and marks the fourth time Google has been charged with violating European antitrust laws in recent years. In this instance, the EU accused Google of abusing its control of the market for buying and selling online advertising. Google said it disagreed with the regulators’ finding and would “respond accordingly.”
