华盛顿:美国财政部长斯科特·贝森特周六(9月26日)表示,他已派遣特使环游世界,施压各国在经济上孤立伊朗,并欢迎针对该国航空公司和银行的新限制措施。
WASHINGTON: US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said on Saturday (Sep 26) that he had sent envoys around the world to pressure countries to economically isolate Iran, hailing new restrictions targeting the country's airlines and banks.
他在X平台上表示:"在我指示下,团队被派往全球各地与各国接触,要求采取行动对抗伊朗政权。这些努力正在取得成果。"贝森特指出,土耳其和阿曼已暂停私营航空公司马汉航空的入境航班,而阿拉伯联合酋长国已停止所有伊朗航空公司的航班。
"At my direction, teams were dispatched across the globe to engage with countries and demand action against the Iranian regime," he said on X. "These efforts are delivering results." Bessent noted that Turkey and Oman have halted incoming flights from private carrier Mahan Air, while the United Arab Emirates has stopped all flights by Iranian airlines.
作为阿联酋的商业中心,迪拜是伊朗航空公司的主要目的地,拥有每天多个航班、庞大的伊朗社区和紧密的商业联系。贝森特还强调了新的银行限制措施。
Dubai, the UAE's commercial hub, is a major destination for Iran's carriers, with multiple daily flights, a large Iranian community and close business links. Bessent also highlighted new banking restrictions.
周三,阿联酋中央银行阻止了伊朗国家银行分行与伊朗之间的交易,指控其违反反洗钱、反恐怖主义和防扩散法律。
On Wednesday, the UAE central bank blocked transactions to and from Iran by branches of Iran's Bank Melli, accusing it of violating laws on money laundering, terrorism and arms proliferation.
上周,土耳其吊销了伊朗梅拉特银行的执照,这是一家多年来一直受到西方制裁的半私营金融实体。
Last week, Turkey revoked the license of Iran's Bank Mellat, a semi-private financial entity that has been subject to Western sanctions for years.
贝森特分享的一篇《华尔街日报》文章称,财政部反恐融资助理部长乔纳森·伯克在两周内穿梭中东和欧洲,推动实施贝森特所谓的对德黑兰的"经济D日"计划。
A Wall Street Journal article shared by Bessent said Jonathan Burke, the Treasury's assistant secretary for terrorist financing, travelled across the Middle East and Europe over two weeks to push the plan to impose what Bessent called "economic D-Day" on Tehran.
《华尔街日报》报道称,美国财政部已与50多个国家举行了磋商。
US Treasury has held discussions with more than 50 countries, the Journal reported.
贝森特周一表示,所有伊朗航空公司"将在全球范围内被关停。"然而,较小的伊朗航空公司仍继续运营国际航线,特别是飞往中国的航线。
Bessent said on Monday that all Iranian airlines "will be shut down around the world." However, smaller Iranian carriers continue to operate international routes, particularly to China.
