纽约——欧盟高级外交官卡娅·卡拉斯（Kaja Kallas）表示，俄罗斯试图恐吓欧洲，使其放弃在该地区的防御措施；她警告称，如果这一企图得逞，只会让俄罗斯变得更加咄咄逼人。
NEW YORK — Russia is trying to scare Europe into backing off its defense in the region, claims European Union’s top diplomat Kaja Kallas, who warns it will only lead to Moscow becoming more aggressive if it succeeds.
“俄罗斯的目标是让我们不敢支持乌克兰，不敢对俄罗斯采取任何行动，”卡拉斯在联合国大会期间接受福克斯新闻数字频道（Fox News Digital）采访时表示。
"Their goal is to intimidate us from not supporting Ukraine, from refraining to support them and pressuring Russia," Kallas told Fox News Digital in an interview on the sidelines of the U.N. General Assembly.
“对我们来说，重要的是不要害怕，”她继续说道，“因为否则这种恐吓手段确实会奏效，到时候全世界都会看到更多类似的事件发生。”在她看来，俄罗斯试图恐吓其欧洲邻国的行为，其历史背景远不止乌克兰战争那么简单。
"What is important for us is that we are not afraid," she continued. "Because otherwise this kind of intimidation actually pays off, and then we will see more of it across the world." For Kallas, Russia’s attempts to intimidate its European neighbors carry a history that reaches well beyond the war in Ukraine.
1949年，当斯大林大规模驱逐波罗的海国家的居民时，卡拉斯的母亲克里斯蒂（Kristi）只有六个月大，她和她的祖母一起被苏联当局驱逐到了西伯利亚；她的祖父则被单独关进了西伯利亚的监狱。
Her mother, Kristi, was just six months old in 1949 when Soviet authorities deported her — along with her mother and her grandmother — to Siberia during Stalin’s mass deportations from the Baltic states. Kallas’ maternal grandfather was separately sent to a Siberian prison camp. Kallas has recounted how her mother was transported east in a cattle car, with fellow deportees drying the infant’s diapers against their own bodies during the freezing journey. The family spent roughly a decade in Siberia before they were allowed to return to Soviet-occupied Estonia in 1959.
卡拉斯曾描述过当时的情景：她和其他被驱逐者一起被关在货运火车里，寒冷的旅途中断奶期的婴儿只能由其他人用自己的身体来擦拭尿布。这个家庭在西伯利亚度过了大约十年时间，直到1959年才获准返回被苏联占领的爱沙尼亚。
Kallas was born in Tallinn in 1977 and spent the first 14 years of her life under Soviet rule. Estonia restored its independence in 1991 as the Soviet Union collapsed.
卡拉斯1977年出生于塔林，在苏联统治下度过了人生的前14年。1991年苏联解体后，爱沙尼亚重新获得了独立。
FRONTLINE NATO ALLY SHARES SHOCKING TAKE ON RUSSIAN INVASION THREAT Her family would go on to become deeply entwined with the new democratic Estonia. Her father, Siim Kallas, became the first president of the Bank of Estonia after gaining its independence, later serving as foreign minister and prime minister before moving to Brussels as a European commissioner.
这位北约盟友对俄罗斯的入侵威胁提出了令人震惊的看法。她的父亲西姆·卡拉斯（Siim Kallas）在爱沙尼亚独立后成为该国首位央行行长，后来又担任过外交部长和总理，最终前往布鲁塞尔担任欧盟委员。卡拉斯本人则从律师成长为爱沙尼亚议会议员，随后又进入了欧洲议会。
Kaja Kallas followed her own path from lawyer to member of Estonia’s parliament and then the European Parliament.
2021年，她成为爱沙尼亚首位女总理，三年后被选为欧盟外交与安全政策高级代表。这是一个历史性时刻——一位在苏联占领下成长的政治家，站在了欧洲应对俄罗斯在大陆侵略的核心位置。
In 2021, she became Estonia’s first female prime minister and three years later was chosen as the European Union’s high representative for foreign affairs and security policy. It was a historic moment — putting a politician who grew up under Soviet occupation at the center of Europe’s response to Russian aggression on the continent.
这一经历使卡拉斯成为欧洲对莫斯科发声最响亮的领导人之一——尽管她祖国爱沙尼亚以及北约东翼其他国家的官员现在警告，不要将俄罗斯近期的挑衅解读为常规入侵的准备。
That history has made Kallas one of Europe’s most prominent voices on Moscow — even as officials in her native Estonia and elsewhere along NATO’s eastern flank now caution against interpreting Russia’s recent provocations as preparations for a conventional invasion. Russia invaded Ukraine more than four-and-a-half years ago and shows no signs of backing off despite repeated promises that negotiations for an end of war are ongoing.
俄罗斯入侵乌克兰已逾四年半，尽管一再承诺正在进行结束战争的谈判，但丝毫没有退缩迹象。

当被问及是否同意爱沙尼亚及其他波罗的海国家官员的看法——即他们目前未见俄罗斯为此类攻击做准备时，卡拉斯转而指出莫斯科日益增加的破坏活动以及威慑的重要性。
Asked whether she agreed with Estonian and other Baltic officials who say they do not currently see Russia preparing for such an attack, Kallas instead pointed to Moscow’s growing use of sabotage and the importance of deterrence.
“我们看到俄罗斯实际上正在增加在欧洲的破坏活动，”卡拉斯说。“但当然，他们会走多远，很大程度上取决于我们，以及我们是否投入足够的国防资源以发挥威慑作用。”这场辩论发生之际，北约国家正面对一系列俄罗斯军机和无人机侵入领空、以及整个欧洲各地疑似破坏和其他混合活动的局面。这些事件助长了某些欧洲首都的警告，称莫斯科正在试探联盟的弱点，而离俄罗斯更近的官员则警告，不要将这些挑衅等同于入侵准备。
"We see that Russia is actually increasing their sabotage acts in Europe," Kallas said. "But of course how far they will go depends very much on us and whether we are investing enough in defense so that it acts as a deterrent." The debate comes as NATO countries confront a string of Russian aircraft and drone incursions, along with suspected sabotage and other hybrid activity across Europe. The incidents have fueled warnings in some European capitals that Moscow is probing the alliance for weaknesses, while officials closer to Russia have cautioned against equating those provocations with preparations for an invasion.
捷克总统警告：美国盟友需要击落试探北约边界的俄罗斯飞机 爱沙尼亚外交部长马尔古斯·察赫克纳本周在接受福克斯新闻数字频道采访时表示，该国情报机构未见俄罗斯正在为对北约发动全面攻击做准备的迹象。
US ALLIES NEED TO SHOOT DOWN RUSSIAN AIRCRAFT TESTING NATO BOUNDARIES, CZECH PRESIDENT WARNS Estonian Foreign Minister Margus Tsahkna told Fox News Digital in a separate interview this week that his country's intelligence services see no indication Russia is preparing for a full-scale attack on NATO.
“欧洲越来越恐慌，担心俄罗斯会入侵，对北约、欧洲、波罗的海国家和波兰发动全面侵略，但我们并未看到这种迹象，”察赫纳说。“我们的情报能深入俄罗斯腹地，我们没有看到任何变化。”然而，卡拉斯认为，莫斯科的行动旨在削弱西方对乌克兰的支持，而非单纯测试北约防线。
"We have more and more this kind of panic in Europe that Russia will invade and will be full-scale aggressive against NATO and Europe and the Baltic states, Poland, but we don’t see it," Tsahkna said. "Our intelligence, we see very, very deep into Russia, we don’t see any change." Kallas, however, argued that Moscow's actions are designed to weaken Western support for Ukraine rather than simply test NATO's defenses. "Their goal is to intimidate us from not supporting Ukraine, from refraining to support them and pressuring Russia," she said.
“他们的目的是恐吓我们，让我们不再支持乌克兰，停止援助并停止向俄罗斯施压，”她说。
The pressure campaign comes as Washington continues its push for a negotiated end to the war. Kallas said Moscow has yet to demonstrate that it is serious about reaching one.
这场施压行动正值华盛顿持续推动通过谈判结束战争之际。卡拉斯表示，莫斯科尚未展现出达成协议的诚意。

“他们应当从停止轰炸平民做起，”她指着近期俄罗斯对基辅的袭击说道。“如果他们当真，就应同意停火，坐到谈判桌前与乌克兰人对话。”卡拉斯称，乌克兰已同意无条件停火，而“俄罗斯只是在玩弄手段”，她主张华盛顿及其欧洲盟友的协同施压可改变莫斯科的核算。
"They should start with stopping bombing the civilians," she said, pointing to recent Russian attacks on Kyiv. "If they are serious about this, they should agree to a ceasefire, sit down at the negotiation table and talk to the Ukrainians." Kallas said Ukraine has already agreed to an unconditional ceasefire while "Russia is just playing games," arguing that coordinated pressure from Washington and its European allies could change Moscow's calculations.
“如果美国、欧洲、英国及其他强国能以同一方式共同实施制裁，那么实际上我们能产生这样的效果：让俄罗斯意识到这是认真的，他们就会坐下来谈判，”她说。
"If America, Europe, UK, other strong players are all acting together in the same way to put in the sanctions, then actually we could have the effect that Russia understands that this is serious and they will sit down and negotiate," she said.
