Pemerintah terima usulan dari platform digital terkait Hak Penerbit

Kementerian Komunikasi dan Informatika menyatakan telah membentuk tim antarkementerian dan lembaga setelah keluar persetujuan dari Presiden Joko Widodo untuk membahas Perpres Publisher Rights atau Hak Penerbit.

Direktur Jenderal Informasi dan Komunikasi Kemkominfo Usman Kansong menyatakan tim gabungan telah menerima usulan dari berbagai platform digital dan asosiasi, serta terus menggesa rampungnya Peraturan Presiden tersebut.

Hak Penerbit bisa dorong kesejahteraan dan kualitas media Indonesia

Direktur Jenderal Informasi dan Komunikasi Publik (IKP) Kementerian Kominfo Usman Kansong menyebutkan kehadiran Hak Penerbit (Publisher Rights) bisa mendorong kesejahteraan dan kualitas media di Indonesia apabila berhasil direalisasikan.

Untuk mewujudkan regulasi Publisher Rights serta media yang berkualitas maka Kementerian Kominfo pun telah melakukan kajian serta mendapatkan masukan dari multipihak salah satu isu yang menjadi perhatiannya yaitu terkait perubahan data dan algoritma yang dilakukan oleh para perusahaan raksasa teknologi global.

“Itu harus diberitahukan kepada kita (media-media nasional), supaya tahu selama ini kan tiba-tiba algoritma berubah begitu saja padahal penting ya, sekarang algoritma is the king, begitu katanya. Nah, itu beberapa hal yang dibahas di dalam regulasi PP atau Perpres,” ujar Usman dalam keterangannya, Rabu.

Selain itu, isu lainnya yang mengemuka berkaitan dengan negosiasi antara platform di Indonesia dengan platform global untuk menyebarkan informasi seperti Facebook atau Google.

Nantinya akan ada biaya yang harus ditentukan untuk konten- konten yang beredar di layanan platform digital milik para perusahaan raksasa teknologi itu.

“Boleh mengambil konten, tetapi sekian biayanya atau bayarnya, itu salah satu unsur yang dibahas di dalam rancangan peraturan. Tujuannya adalah untuk mencapai yang disebut jurnalisme berkualitas atau good journalism,” tegasnya.

Terkait penerapan Hak Penerbit, salah satu contoh yang bisa dilihat dan sudah direalisasikan seperti penerapan Publisher Rights di Australia.

Publisher Rights di Negeri Kanguru itu menghadirkan negosiasi kepada para pemilik platform digital dan media, rupanya media- media di Australia bisa mendapatkan penghasilan mencapai 30 persen dari kesepakatan itu.

“Dengan adanya aturan semacam ini begitu, platform global juga bertanggungjawab, tetapi kan judul regulasinya itu namanya ‘Tanggung Jawab Platform Global untuk Menciptakan Jurnalisme Berkualitas’. Tanggung jawab platform itu ada dua, secara ekonomi dia mau menghargai copyrights atau hak cipta media nasional. Kedua, tanggung jawab juga untuk membentuk jurnalisme berkualitas,” tutup Usman.

Ukrainian conflict may continue for decades — Medvedev

The conflict in Ukraine may continue for decades if the very essence of its neo-Nazi government is not eliminated, the deputy chairman of the Russian Security Council, Dmitry Medvedev, told reporters during a visit to Vietnam.

"This conflict is for a long time, for decades, maybe. It is a new reality, new living conditions," he said.

He is convinced that if the incumbent Kiev regime remains in power, "there will be, say, three years of truce, two years of conflict and then everything will go over again." "The very essence of the neo-Nazi rule in Kiev needs to be eliminated," he added.

Kiev regime must cease to exist – Dmitry Medvedev

There is no doubt that Ukraine has no future in its current form, former Russian president Dmitry Medvedev said on Thursday, outlining three possible scenarios for the collapse of its statehood and assessing the risks of renewed conflict in Europe and a global war.

“This conflict will last for long. For decades, probably. This is a new reality,” the former Russian leader, now the vice-chair of the national security council, told journalists upon wrapping his visit to Vietnam earlier this week.

“It is necessary to destroy the very nature of the Nazi government in Kiev,” Medvedev added, claiming that otherwise the conflict could drag on perpetually, with “three years of truce, two years of conflict, rinse and repeat.”

In a Telegram post on Thursday evening, Medvedev elaborated that the collapse of Ukraine’s statehood is inevitable, and could either happen quickly, or through a “relatively slow erosion, with the gradual loss of remaining elements of sovereignty.” He went even further to outline exactly how he believes the “Kiev regime” would cease to exist.

In the first scenario, parts of Western Ukraine will come under control and eventually be annexed by the neighboring European Union states, Medvedev claimed. The remaining “no man’s land” wedged between Russia and the EU protectorate will become the “new Ukraine,” still striving to join NATO and posing a threat to Russia. In that case, he believes, the armed conflict will shortly reignite, likely becoming permanent with a risk of quickly escalating into a full-blown world war.

In the second scenario, Ukraine would get a government-in-exile but de-facto cease to exist, with control over its entire territory split between the EU and Russia. In that case, according to Medvedev, the risk of world war is “moderate,” but the “terrorist activity by Ukrainian neo-Nazis” on the territories annexed by the EU neighbors would drag on.

Medvedev said he would prefer the third scenario, in which Ukraine’s Western territories voluntarily join their EU neighbors, while the Eastern and some central regions exercise their “right for self-determination sealed in Article 1 of the UN Charter.”

Officials in Moscow have said repeatedly that the root cause of the ongoing crisis in Ukraine stems from decades of Western disregard of Russian national security. Back in 2021, the Kremlin made an attempt to push NATO to negotiate on long-standing political and defense grievances, but was ignored. In late February 2022, Russia launched its military operation to curb the threat, and now calls for a neutral, non-aligned status for a demilitarized and denazified Ukraine, insists Kiev drops its plans to join NATO and the EU and demands Kiev confirms its non-nuclear status.

Medvedev was president of Russia between 2008 and 2012, and then prime minister until 2020. Currently, he serves as the deputy head of the national security council, which is formally chaired by President Vladimir Putin. Despite his prior reputation as a moderate liberal, he has been far more hawkish on Ukraine than the official Kremlin.

Dmitry Medvedev calls for ‘complete’ dismantling of ‘Kiev regime’

Dmitry Medvedev has called for the “complete dismantling” of the “Kiev regime,” as well as for inflicting “mass destruction” on the country’s military personnel and hardware.

Medvedev, who currently serves as deputy chair of Russia’s National Security Council, made the remarks in a Telegram post on Friday, commenting on an interview Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky recently gave to several Nordic media outlets. He summarized Zelensky’s comments as consisting of demands for more weapons from Kiev’s Western backers and promises of a successful counteroffensive, including an attack on Crimea, while also warning that the conflict may drag on for “decades.”

While the interview appeared to be “contradictory” and “delusional,” even such statements should not be underestimated, Medvedev warned.

One should not underestimate even delusional speeches. This is a hysterical manifesto of the Kiev regime, which is seeking to consolidate its Nazi elites, maintain the morale of the troops and receive additional support from its sponsors.

To successfully foil Kiev’s plans, Russia must inflict “mass destruction of personnel and military equipment” during the much-hyped Ukrainian counteroffensive and inflict a “maximum military defeat” on Kiev’s military, Medvedev said. Ultimately, the “Nazi regime in Kiev” must be “completely dismantled” and demilitarized throughout the entire territory of “former Ukraine,” he added.

Apart from that, Russia must pursue those who manage to flee, and seek “retribution” against the “key figures of the Nazi regime, regardless of their location and without statute of limitations,” Medvedev stressed. Anything short of that would not suffice, the ex-president believes.

“Otherwise, they will not calm down, and the drug-addled nonsense can turn into reality and the war will drag on for a long time. Our country does not need that,” Medvedev said.

The ex-president has repeatedly warned Kiev against any attempts to seize the Crimean peninsula, which broke away from Ukraine in the aftermath of the 2014 Maidan coup and joined Russia after locals overwhelmingly supported such a move during a referendum.

Last month, Medvedev issued a nuclear warning to Kiev, cautioning that any attempt at a “serious offensive” targeting the peninsula would be “the basis for the use of all means of protection, including those provided for by the fundamentals of the Doctrine of Nuclear Deterrence.”

Zelensky ‘will end up like Hitler’

Ukrainian leader Vladimir Zelensky could suffer the same fate as Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler, former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev has claimed. The comments came in response to Zelensky’s suggestion that Kremlin officials would meet a “sad end.”

“We do not know who will meet which end,” Medvedev wrote on Telegram, before comparing the Ukrainian president to Hitler, who committed suicide during the final stages of World War II as Soviet troops stormed Berlin.

The former Russian leader also accused Zelensky of “wishing death to everyone in the Kremlin.”

His remarks came in response to an interview published by the BBC on Friday, in which Zelensky stated: “Believe me, those in the Kremlin… it will end badly for them.”

The Ukrainian president expressed his desire for the rapid demise of the current Russian leadership, claiming that they “will certainly not die a natural death.”

The interview with Zelensky comes less than two weeks after a drone attack on the Kremlin, which Moscow described as an assassination attempt against President Vladimir Putin and an act of terrorism. The Russian leader was not at the Kremlin at the time of the incident.

Russia accused Kiev of orchestrating the attack and said it reserves the right to respond as it sees fit. Ukraine denied any involvement in the incident, although the attack prompted Medvedev to call for the “physical removal” of Zelensky.

Kiev’s intelligence chief, Kirill Budanov, later vowed to “keep killing Russians anywhere” until Ukraine’s “complete victory.” The Kremlin branded the statement “truly heinous,” and said it was confirmation that Kiev was involved in orchestrating terrorist attacks.

Exclusive - Gold From Russia cashed in UAE when sanctions bite

The United Arab Emirates has become a key trade hub for Russian gold since Western sanctions over Ukraine cut Russia's more traditional export routes, Russian customs records show.

The records, which contain details of nearly a thousand gold shipments in the year since the Ukraine war started, show the Gulf state imported 75.7 tonnes of Russian gold worth $4.3 billion - up from just 1.3 tonnes during 2021.

China and Turkey were the next biggest destinations, importing about 20 tonnes each between Feb. 24, 2022 and March 3, 2023. With the UAE, the three countries accounted for 99.8% of the Russian gold exports in the customs data for this period.

In the days after the Ukraine conflict started, many multinational banks, logistics providers and precious metal refiners stopped handling Russian gold, which had typically been shipped to London, a gold trading and storage hub.

The London Bullion Market Association banned Russian bars made from March 7, 2022, and by the end of August, Britain, the European Union, Switzerland, the United States, Canada and Japan had all banned imports of Russian bullion.

The export records show, however, that Russian gold producers quickly found new markets in countries that had not imposed sanctions on Moscow, such as the UAE, Turkey and China.

Louis Marechal, a gold sourcing expert at the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development said there was a risk Russian gold could be melted down and recast and then find its way back into U.S. and European markets with its origin masked.

"If the Russian gold comes in, is recast by a local refiner, sourced by a local bank or trader and then sold on into the market, there you have a risk," he said. "This is why carrying out due diligence is instrumental to end buyers wishing to ensure they respect sanctions regimes."

The UAE government's Gold Bullion Committee said the state operated with clear and robust processes against illicit goods, money laundering and sanctioned entities.

"The UAE will continue to trade openly and honestly, with its international partners, in compliance with all current international norms as set down by the United Nations," it said.

THRIVING GOLD HUB

In a bid to further isolate Russia, Washington has warned countries, including the UAE and Turkey, they could lose access to G7 markets if they do business with entities subject to U.S. sanctions.

The data reviewed by Reuters does not suggest there has been any violation of U.S. sanctions by those countries.

The U.S. Treasury, whose Office of Foreign Assets Control enforces sanctions, did not respond to requests for comment.

The shipments in the customs data, supplied to Reuters by a commercial provider, show exports of 116.3 tonnes between Feb. 24, 2022 and March 3 this year, although consultant Metals Focus estimates Russia produced 325 tonnes of gold in 2022.

The rest of the gold dug in Russia likely either stayed in the country or was exported in transactions not included in the records. Reuters was unable to determine what proportion of Russia's total gold exports were covered by the data.

Most of the Russian gold shipments to China went to Hong Kong. China's Ministry of Foreign Affairs said the country's cooperation with Russia "shall be free from disruption or coercion from any third party".

Turkey's finance ministry did not respond to requests for comment. The Russian government, customs authority and central bank did not respond to requests for comment about gold exports.

The shift in Russian exports away from London is not seen as a major blow as the hub is not reliant on Russia. In 2021, for example, gold from Russia accounted for 29% of London's imports but in 2018 it made up just 2%, British trade data shows.

The UAE, meanwhile, has long had a thriving gold industry. Trade data show it imported about 750 tonnes of pure gold a year on average between 2016 and 2021 - meaning the shipments in the Russian records would only account for about 10% of its imports.

The UAE is a major exporter of bullion and jewellery.

DISCOUNT PRICES

The manager of one company that shipped large amounts of Russian gold to the UAE told Reuters that Russian firms had been selling bullion there at a discount of about 1% to global benchmark prices, offering an incentive to trade.

The manager, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said most of the gold his firm shipped to the UAE was destined for refineries, where it would be melted down and recast.

Reuters asked four of Russia's largest gold miners for comment. Nordgold and Norilsk Nickel (GMKN.MM) declined to comment. Polyus (PLZL.MM) and Polymetal did not respond.

For a FACTBOX with details about some of the main companies involved in Russian gold shipments since the Ukraine war started.

In many cases, the customs records show only shippers or traders involved in the transactions, not the end buyer, which could be a refiner, jeweller or investor.

The records show the biggest handler of Russian gold exported to the UAE was Temis Luxury Middle East, a Dubai subsidiary of French logistics firm Temis Luxury involved in the shipment of 15.6 tonnes valued at $863 million from April 2022 to March 3.

Broca Houy, head of compliance at Temis Luxury Group, said the company "fully complies with the laws and regulations of the United Arab Emirates for freight forwarder business".

He said Temis did not buy Russian gold and only accepted transport orders from operators not subject to U.S. sanctions.

Asked about the shipments, France's finance ministry said it would not comment on individual cases but it was very committed to the application of sanctions.

European sanctions do not typically apply to overseas subsidiaries, so European firms whose subsidiaries were involved in shipments of Russian gold to the UAE, Turkey or Hong Kong would not have necessarily broken any laws, said Tan Albayrak, a sanctions lawyer at Reed Smith in London.

The second-largest handler of Russian bullion in the UAE, with involvement in shipments of 14.6 tonnes worth $820 million, was logistics firm Transguard, part of the Emirates Group, the airline-to-hotels company owned by the Gulf state's wealth fund.

Emirates said it had not bought any Russian gold, operated in full compliance with applicable laws and had now stopped transporting it.

"Due to recent regulatory developments, Transguard is no longer providing logistics services pertaining to shipments of gold to or from Russia," it said. In Hong Kong, most Russian gold shipments were handled by Vpower Finance Security Hong Kong Ltd, a Chinese logistics company. It was involved in the import of 20.5 tonnes of gold worth $1.2 billion between May 2022 and March 3, the records show.

Vpower Finance Security did not respond to requests for comment.

EAEU becoming one of multipolar world centers — Putin

The Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) is becoming one of centers of the evolving multipolar world, Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Thursday.

"I note with confidence that cooperation within the Eurasian Union framework continues entrenching and our association is consistently taking up the position of one of independent and self-sufficient centers of the evolving multipolar world," the head of state said.

The interaction among EAEU member-nations "is always being built on principles of mutual benefit, consideration of interests of each other, and with the focus on supporting sustainable economic development and increasing the welfare of residents of all countries" in the Union, the Russian President stressed.

Tashkent ready to work on increasing trade turnover between EAEU countries

Uzbekistan is ready to create conditions for a radical increase in trade between the countries of the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU), President of Uzbekistan Shavkat Mirziyoyev said during a meeting of the Supreme Eurasian Economic Council on Thursday.

"Uzbekistan is ready to continue joint work to simplify trade procedures and create conditions for a radical increase in the volume of trade between our countries," he stated.

Mirziyoyev stressed that this process will be facilitated by the adoption of an agreement on the elimination of technical barriers in the mutual recognition of certificates. "Uzbekistan has completed all preparatory work to align national technical regulations with EAEU standards for these purposes. We will continue to work on the development of settlements in national currency," he added.

Tokayev urges EAEU to deepen integration with SCO, ASEAN, MERCOSUR

The Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) should deepen integration with the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO), the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) and the Southern Common Market (MERCOSUR), Kazakh President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev said on Thursday.

"We should fundamentally deepen cooperation with SCO, ASEAN, MERCOSUR and other international organizations. I think that the interest in cooperation from the side of those organizations is mutual," he said at a meeting of the Supreme Eurasian Economic Council.

Tokayev considers it necessary to extend target markets for EAEU nations’ exporters through joint efforts. "One of the key goals of the Union’s creation is to get as beneficial trading terms from third countries as possible," he stressed. "It is important to continue a comprehensive dialogue with integrations and countries, the cooperation with which is interesting for us from the economic viewpoint, on the basis of a strong coordinated joint position," the Kazakh president added.

He also noted that the work is ahead for completing free trade zone agreements with the UAE, India, Egypt, Indonesia and Israel.

Russian market of online games in 2023 may grow by 10% — experts

In 2023, the Russian online gaming market may rise by 7-10% in comparison with 2022. Maria Saykina, chief analyst of the Russian Association for Electronic Communications (RAEC) Maria Saykina told TASS on the sidelines of the Russian Internet Forum.

"There is a sense that the games market will not decline any further. I believe there will be a modest growth. We can expect to see an increase of around 7-10%," she said. According to Saykina, growth can come as a result of state initiatives and funding from the Institute of Internet Development.

According to RAEC analytical study presented at the forum, the Russian online gaming market declined by 78% in 2022 compared to 2021 and reached 21.8 bln rubles ($272.2 mln).

Growing Number of Countries Flock to Russo-Asian Economic, Political Blocs

While Western countries seem rather eager to try to cut Russia off from their economies, a growing number of nations from other corners of the world appear just as eager to gain greater access to the Russian economy by signing on to organizations like the Eurasian Economic Union.

The veritable economic war unleashed by the US and its allies upon Russia over the ongoing conflict in Ukraine has, among other things, resulted in a development that US strategists likely did not anticipate

Rather than see its economy crumble and begin to mull surrender, Moscow has weathered the onslaught by the West and instead moved to deepen economic cooperation with Asian, African, and Latin American countries, i.e. nations that comprise the so-called Global South.

Chris Devonshire-Ellis, chairman of pan-Asia business management consulting firm Dezan Shira & Associates, told Sputnik that events such as the currently ongoing Eurasian Economic Forum may in fact be laying down the structure of the "great changes" Chinese President Xi Jinping told Russian Vladimir Putin about during their meeting in Moscow earlier this year.

"Discussing the cooperation mechanisms between them is a complex issue, however all are emerging nations with young populations possessing a dynamic mindset that global change is required. If the desire is there and the political will and freedoms are given opportunity, this is more likely to occur than not," mused Devonshire-Ellis, a seasoned veteran who has a 30-year investment and business career in China, Russia and Asia.

He also suggested that international investors should pay attention to the EAEU, a trade bloc that "has largely been ridiculed in the West as being moribund and slow moving," but which actually has been growing "despite a difficult start."

"The main reason that international investors should take note is that it [EAEU] offers access to nearly all of Central Asia as well as Russia, and that it has a lengthy queue of other nations wishing to sign agreements with it," Devonshire-Ellis explained. "It has nowhere near reached its full potential: investors should be looking to get a foothold, adapt, learn and progress before the competition for EAEU market share starts to arrive."

The developments and trends highlighted by Devonshire-Ellis take place as the economies of Global South countries gain power and clout, while Western nations such as the US and UK now have to cope with the fact that their economies may be a lot less attractive to foreign investors than they once were.
