روحانی: توافق با اروپا نهایی نشده، گام سوم را برمی‌داریم
رئیس‌جمهور ایران گفت «بخش عمده» اختلاف‌ها با اروپا حل شده اما چون توافق نهایی نشده گام سوم کاهش تعهدات برجامی آغاز می‌شود. او مذاکرات را رو به جلو توصیف کرد اما بعید دانست که در یکی دو روز باقی‌مانده، توافق نهایی شود.
به گزارش پایگاه اطلاع‌رسانی دولت، حسن روحانی در نشست روز چهارشنبه، ۱۳ شهریور هیئت دولت گفت: «مثلاً اگر در ۲۰ مسئله اختلاف داشتیم، این اختلافات اکنون در ۳ مسئله است و بخش عمده آنها حل شده‌اند، اما هنوز به نقطه نهایی نرسیده‌ایم و بعید می‌دانم طی امروز و فردا نیز بتوانیم به توافق نهایی برسیم.»
روحانی رسماً اجرایی شدن گام سوم از کاهش تعهدات اتمی ایران را اعلام کرد
حسن روحانی شامگاه چهارشنبه ۱۳ شهریورماه، پس از نشست مشترک سران قوا اعلام کرد که گام سوم از کاهش تعهدات هسته‌ای ایران از روز جمعه، ۱۵ شهریورماه، اجرایی می‌شود.
رئیس‌جمهور ایران به سازمان انرژی اتمی دستور داده‌است که محدودیت‌های مربوط به تحقیق و توسعه برنامه‌اتمی ایران را بردارد.
تحریم شبکه نفتی ایران و پاداش ۱۵میلیونی برای افشای چرخه مالی سپاه
دفتر کنترل دارایی‌های خارجی وزارت خزانه‌داری ایالات متحده چهارشنبه ۱۳ شهریور / ۴ سپتامبر اعلام کرد که یک شبکه بزرگ انتقال نفت مرتبط با سپاه قدس را که شامل چندین شرکت، فرد و نفتکش می‌شود مورد تحریم قرار داده‌است.
این شبکه گسترده شامل ۱۶ شرکت، ۱۰ فرد و ۱۱ نفتکش است که برخی از آن‌ها با پوشش مخفی در لبنان و با نظارت حزب‌الله ثبت شده‌اند. یک شرکت دیگر به نام «گروه مهدی» در هند ثبت شده‌است و خود چندین شرکت زیرمجموعه دارد. از جمله رستم قاسمی، وزیر سابق نفت و فرمانده اسبق قرارگاه خاتم‌الانبیا. همچنین برای ارائه اطلاعات از چرخه مالی سپاه نیز ۱۵میلیون دلار پاداش تعیین شده‌است.
ترامپ: دیدار با روحانی آری، لغو تحریم‌ها خیر
دونالد ترامپ رئیس‌جمهوری آمریکا روز چهارشنبه ۱۳شهریور/۴ سپتامبر، فرض دیدار با همتای ایرانی‌اش را در حاشیهٔ مجمع عمومی سازمان ملل متحد مردود ندانست. اما ترامپ امکان لغو تحریم‌ها را به عنوان پیش‌شرط مذاکره مطلقاً رد کرد.
ترامپ، در پاسخ به پرسش‌هایی در بارهٔ احتمال دیدار ترامپ و روحانی، در حاشیهٔ مجمع عمومی سازمان ملل و با حضور امانوئل ماکرون، گفت: «نمی‌دانم. من سپاسگزار اقدامات امانوئل ماکرون هستم؛ ولی ما از طریق او مسائل را دنبال نمی‌کنیم»...
ترامپ افزود: «ما اگر می‌خواستیم می‌توانستیم از ژاپن کمک بگیریم. ژاپن یکی از اصلی‌ترین خریداران (نفت ایران) است، ولی ما برای توافق نیازی به دیگران نداریم».
ترامپ توضیح داد که مقامات ایرانی گفته‌اند که «تا زمانی که برخی اقدامات انجام نشود و تحریم‌ها لغو نگردد»، آنها نیز به مذاکره باز نخواهند گشت. اما ترامپ با اشاره به لغو تحریم‌ها تأکید کرد که «چنین چیزی روی نخواهد داد».
هوک: استثنا یا معافیت نفتی دیگر در کار نیست
در پی اعلام تحریم‌های جدید علیه سپاه قدس ایران، برایان هوک، مسئول امور ایران در وزارت خارجه آمریکا، تأکید کرد که دیگر معافیتی برای خرید و فروش نفت توسط مشتریان ایران در کار نخواهد بود.
هوک در جلسه پرسش و پاسخ با خبرنگاران تأکید کرد که تنها چیزی که از این پس ادامه خواهد یافت سیاست فشار حداکثری است و تحریم‌های جدید دیگر.
ایران پاداش میلیونی آمریکا را «جایزه خیانت و جاسوسی» نامید
سخنگوی وزارت خارجه ایران شامگاه چهارشنبه ۱۳ شهریور، سخنان اخیر برایان هوک، نماینده ویژه آمریکا در امور ایران، و تعیین جایزه برای اطلاعاتی را که به «متلاشی شدن چرخه مالی سپاه» منجر شود، «ناامیدانه، مضحک و اَعمالی از روی یأس و استیصال» توصیف کرد.
به گزارش خبرگزاری مهر، عباس موسوی، سخنگوی وزارت خارجه ایران، ضمن محکوم کردن سخنان برایان هوک، گفت: «تشدید اظهارنظرهای خصمانه و اقدامات ناامیدانه و مضحک‌تر از همه تعیین جایزه برای خیانت و جاسوسی، اَعمالی از روی یأس و استیصال برای اثرگذاری بر ملت ایران است که چون همیشه ره به جایی نخواهد برد.»
نتانیاهو: زمان گفتگو با ایران نیست باید فشارها بیشتر شود
نخست‌وزیر اسرائیل در واکنش به ادامه روند کاهش تعهدات برجامی ایران که روز چهارشنبه تحقق آن از سوی حسن روحانی وعده داده شد بر افزایش فشارهای جامعه بین‌المللی بر تهران تأکید کرد.

At the World Humanoid Robot Games in China last month, robots jumped, boxed and danced. Some fleet-footed bots ran faster than Usain Bolt over 100 meters. Spectators cheered the machines’ improving capabilities and their meme-worthy stumbles.

Two days after the Games ended, the People's Liberation Army's official newspaper drew its own conclusions from the show. The PLA Daily called for researchers to accelerate the transfer of cutting-edge technologies from laboratories to military training grounds for robotic "combatants."

China's defense establishment is accelerating research into humanoids’ military uses and planning for their eventual wartime deployment, according to a Reuters review of more than 100 Chinese military procurement notices, academic studies, patents, official publications, government records and defense-company materials.

Military institutions are testing humanoids against battlefield requirements, seeking to acquire robots and technologies to train them, and studying how they might function alongside troops, the previously unreported records show. The work gained momentum in 2025 and 2026, focusing on robot perception, manipulation, and training data.

Chinese manufacturers accounted for about 95% of global humanoid shipments in 2025, according to BofA Global Research. That commercial dominance gives the PLA access to an expanding industry while developing its own military applications.

China’s robot defense research underscores how rapidly military technologies are evolving globally. In the Russia-Ukraine war, semiautonomous drones that use artificial intelligence for navigation and targeting have transformed reconnaissance and attack, while robots carry supplies and retrieve casualties. Reuters has previously documented the Chinese military’s efforts to learn from Europe’s deadliest conflict since World War II.

That evolution is driving worldwide military interest in autonomous systems.

"Going where we don’t want humans to go is one of the most compelling reasons to develop robots in the first place," said Dennis Hong, a professor of mechanical and aerospace engineering at UCLA. "If losing a robot means avoiding the loss of a human life, then the robot can become expendable."

China's defense ministry and the National University of Defense Technology (NUDT), the PLA’s premier research institution, ‌didn’t respond to requests ‌for comment about humanoid robots’ military applications.

Reuters found no evidence that China has deployed an armed humanoid with an operational PLA unit. The robots remain energy-intensive ‌and unreliable ⁠outside controlled demonstrations. Battlefield ⁠environments pose many variables and challenge robots’ abilities in unpredictable ways, said Aaron Johnson, a professor of mechanical engineering at Carnegie Mellon University.

URBAN ASSAULT FORCE

Already, China has a vision for humanoid robots in urban warfare.

Six "combat robots" – humanoids, robot dogs or unmanned vehicles – would be split up between two assault teams. Working with ground troops, the robots would clear an enemy-occupied building, floor-by-floor and room-by-room.

That scenario was described in an August 2025 paper by researchers at NUDT’s test center in Xi’an. The study modeled an urban assault force using equipment the authors projected could be available within five to 10 years. It didn’t specify the robots’ rules of engagement, the weapons they would carry, nor how they would handle civilian encounters.

Improvements in balance, perception and endurance could make humanoids useful in places including buildings, tunnels and ship interiors, said Juo-Min Chou, a researcher at Taiwan's Institute for National Defense and Security Research. "Their two hands and two feet could, in theory, combine mobility, climbing and manipulation," she said.

For simpler reconnaissance or logistics missions, however, quadruped, tracked or wheeled robots would generally be cheaper and easier to deploy at scale, Chou added.

Chinese military commentary envisions an expanding range of roles for humanoids. A July 2025 article in PLA Daily argued that humanoid ⁠missions could eventually evolve "from supporting combat toward primary combat" and discussed how robots might be authorized to fire on a living target that had been verified ‌by a human.

In December, the PLA Eastern Theater Command released an AI-generated montage that showed military robots, including humanoids and quadrupeds, overwhelming Taiwan's defenses in a hypothetical ‌future conflict.

China isn’t alone in exploring battlefield uses for humanoids. Last year, the US Army launched a competition to develop "militarized humanoid capabilities" that could eventually work alongside soldiers. The Army said potential roles included reconnaissance, security, obstacle clearing, hazardous-material operations and offensive ‌and defensive missions in urban terrain.

Up to 10 finalists were due to test their systems with US military experts this year, with as much as $1.25 million available for follow-on contracts.

The US robotics industry, however, trails ‌far behind China in developing two-legged and four-legged machines. Reuters reported last month that China’s Unitree robots – among the world’s leading producers of humanoids and quadrupeds – based designs for its best-selling robot dogs on innovations financed by the US military.

The Pentagon and the US Army didn’t comment for this story.

INFILTRATING ENEMY LINES

Chinese interest in humanoid robots’ military applications began to pick up in 2024. That year, NUDT and China’s Academy of Military Sciences hosted a defense-technology forum that included a session on military applications for humanoid systems, according to NUDT’s website. Neither institution responded to Reuters’ questions.

A year later, NUDT explicitly framed humanoid robots as battlefield tools. A university competition in June 2025 featured an event that simulated "infiltration behind enemy lines," requiring robots to enter an area, map it and locate targets, ‌according to its website. Another envisioned robots conducting identity checks, discipline inspections and security patrols at military bases.

The military-research university described the competition in part as a proving ground for humanoids to eventually "move toward the battlefield."

Procurement records around that time reflected that ultimate goal.

In May 2025, the PLA issued a tender to ⁠purchase a humanoid robot, including installation and technical training. Four months ⁠later, a procurement notice that listed an NUDT email as its contact address sought an "embodied humanoid robot intelligent perception and dexterous operation system."

The records contained few specifics. Reuters couldn’t determine whether the tenders were filled, and if so, which companies won or which robot models were supplied.

In June this year, the PLA budgeted about $300,000 for a system to collect and label camera, radar and motion data for humanoids, including information about terrain they could traverse, according to another military procurement document.

The specifications show Chinese military interest is extending from robot bodies into the perception, manipulation and training systems that defense scholars say are essential for humanoids to move beyond controlled demonstrations.

REMOTE OPERATION

By 2026, humanoid development had spread beyond military academia into China's defense industry.

The Fuxi robot made by Norinco, a state-owned defense conglomerate, is one example. Company materials published in August described the full-size humanoid as capable of sentry duty, all-weather reconnaissance, intelligent patrol and fulfilling dangerous roles.

Fuxi can be paired with Norinco’s teleoperation system, which allows a human operator to control a humanoid remotely, according to the company. Removing the need for a robot to make all decisions autonomously would address what many robotics experts say is the biggest challenge with humanoids.

Norinco didn’t respond to a request for comment.

Malcolm Davis, a senior analyst at the Australian Strategic Policy Institute, said he didn’t see humanoid robots as practical battlefield systems at present. "But in five to 10 years," he said, "they could very well be."

Even if remotely operated today, humanoid systems designed for autonomous deployment would eventually need to navigate ethical dilemmas. The laws of war require forces to distinguish combatants from civilians and to refrain from attacking wounded or surrendering fighters.

The International Committee of the Red Cross has cautioned that autonomous weapons may struggle to interpret signs of surrender reliably because such judgments can depend on context, conduct and intent.

The US military requires autonomous weapons to undergo legal review and realistic testing and for commanders and operators to exercise appropriate judgment over the use of force. China’s defense ministry said in March that AI-powered weapons should remain under human control.

Those concerns haven’t deterred China's exploration of humanoids’ military uses.

Wang Yonghua, a researcher at China’s Academy of Military Sciences, wrote in a November commentary that humanoids face unresolved problems in movement, perception and intelligence. Technical breakthroughs, lower manufacturing costs and industrial-scale production would be needed for humanoids to become widespread military systems.

If those conditions are met, Wang wrote, "humanoid robots will stream onto the battlefield."

Gold Slips on Rate-Hike Bets; Inflation Data in Focus

Gold slipped on Monday as strong US jobs data reinforced expectations for higher interest rates, while investors awaited key US inflation reports due later this week for further clarity on the Federal Reserve's policy path.

Spot gold was down 0.6% at $4,402.86 per ounce, as of 0420 GMT, after falling 1% on Friday.

US gold futures for December delivery were down 0.6% at $4,447.60.

Data ‌on Friday ‌showed US job growth accelerated sharply in August ‌while ⁠the unemployment rate ⁠held steady at 4.1%, suggesting an improvement in the labor market after recent struggles and keeping a rate increase this month on the table.

US producer price index (PPI) data is due on Thursday, followed by consumer price index (CPI) data on Friday.

"The jobs number delivered a clear upside surprise and put some pressure ⁠on the metal, but it wasn't a ‌complete slam dunk for a September ‌rate hike. The real missing piece of the puzzle arrives this ‌week with U.S. CPI," said Tim Waterer, chief market analyst ‌at KCM Trade.

"A strong inflation print would reinforce expectations of a Fed hike, lift yields further and weigh more heavily on gold."

Traders are pricing in a 58.4% chance of a rate hike ‌at the Fed's September 15-16 meeting, CME's FedWatch tool showed.

While gold is typically viewed as ⁠an inflation ⁠hedge, higher interest rates tend to weigh on the appeal of non-yielding bullion.

US President Donald Trump said on Friday that unless the Fed cuts interest rates, he would stop trading with countries with which the United States had a deficit.

On the Middle East front, Iran said it will step up efforts to tackle problems created by US sanctions that are crippling its economy, while a senior Iranian official warned of a "painful response" if it comes under further attack.

Among other metals, spot silver eased 0.6% to $65.80 per ounce, platinum lost 1.1% to $1,800.59 and palladium declined 0.5% to $1,394.00.

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen is expected to unveil on Monday a boost in EU investments in Greenland and closer political ties with the Danish Arctic territory, which Donald Trump has insisted should belong to the United States.

Von der Leyen arrived in Greenland on Sunday for a two-day visit serving as a show of support for the governments of Greenland and Denmark, which have strongly rebuffed Trump’s campaign to annex the world’s largest island, said Reuters.

The head of the 27-nation European Union's executive body, von der Leyen is expected to unveil plans to invest in sectors including critical minerals, satellite communications and renewable ‌energy in ‌Greenland, a semi-autonomous part of the Danish realm.

On Sunday in Nuuk, ‌the ⁠capital, von der ⁠Leyen said the package would be "substantial" but gave no details. Greenland Premier Jens-Frederik Nielsen said his country wanted to build on its "close friendship and good partnership" with the EU.

Von der Leyen's visit reflects the increasing geopolitical importance of the Arctic to major powers, such as the United States, Russia, China and Europe, as melting ice opens new shipping routes to make the region’s mineral wealth more accessible.

"Greenland's stunning landscapes and natural beauty will stay with me for ⁠a long time. But so will the visible scars of climate ‌change on the ice sheet," von der Leyen ‌posted on X after a boat trip under clear blue skies in a fjord scattered with ‌chunks of ice.

"As the ice melts, a new reality is taking shape."

TRUMP'S PUSH ‌TO ACQUIRE GREENLAND SPARKED CRISIS

Trump, the US president, sparked a crisis in US-European ties and turmoil within the transatlantic NATO military alliance this year when he stepped up his demands for the US to control Greenland, arguing that fellow NATO member Denmark could not defend it.

European officials stressed Greenland ‌is part of NATO territory, meaning it is covered by the alliance’s mutual defense pact, and that the US already has ⁠the right to increase ⁠its military presence there under a longstanding treaty.

Tensions lowered after Trump and NATO boss Mark Rutte agreed in Davos in January that the United States, Denmark and Greenland would begin talks to resolve their differences and NATO would step up its role in Arctic security.

However, the trilateral talks have yet to yield an agreement and, at a NATO summit in Türkiye in July, Trump restated his insistence that the US should control Greenland.

While Denmark is a member of the EU, Greenland left the bloc in 1985. But its people, as Danish citizens, are also citizens of the EU.

The EU has long provided funding to Greenland, mainly to pay for fishing rights and support its education system. The package to be announced by von der Leyen will represent not only a big increase in funding but a broadening of the sectors that will receive EU cash, according to EU officials.
