“特朗普总统根本不可信任，就是这么简单。”说出这番话的并非伊朗伊斯兰主义者或巴勒斯坦活动人士，而是加拿大安大略省省长道格·福特。安大略省是加拿大人口最多的省份，居民主要以英语为母语，且与美国接壤。福特表示支持加拿大总理马克·卡尼；卡尼在8月22日承认，与特朗普的谈判已经变得毫无意义——即使这样做可能会引发一场大规模的贸易战争。
"President Trump, he can't be trusted. Simple as that." These are not the words of an Iranian Islamist or a Palestinian activist, but of Doug Ford, premier of Ontario, Canada's most populous and predominantly English-speaking province that shares a border with the United States. Ford was voicing his support for Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney, who acknowledged on August 22 that negotiating with Donald Trump had become impossible, even at the risk of triggering a major trade war.
人们越来越认为，美国总统的话已经不再具有任何权威性，因为特朗普的错误决策已成为国际关系不稳定的主要根源。在中东地区，这种不稳定局势的影响尤为严重。
The belief that the US president's word is no longer worth much has spread globally, as Trump's missteps have become a major source of instability in international relations. Nowhere has this destabilization proved more disastrous than in the Middle East.
尽管特朗普可以通过美国国务院接触到世界上最经验丰富、最高效的外交团队，但他却选择忽视这些专业人员的意见，而是将所有关键的国际事务交由一些与房地产行业有关的人士来处理。他的和平特使史蒂夫·威特科夫、商业伙伴兼高尔夫球友贾里德·库什纳，以及女婿贾里德·库什纳，都在特朗普的第一个总统任期内发挥了重要作用（尤其是推动了以色列与阿拉伯国家的和解协议）。
Through the State Department, Trump has access to one of the world's most experienced and effective diplomatic corps. Instead, he chooses to sideline it, entrusting the most critical international issues to close associates often drawn from the real estate sector. The same is true of his special envoy for peace, Steve Witkoff, his business and golf partner, and his son-in-law, Jared Kushner, who was already instrumental during Trump's first presidential term by launching the Abraham Accords for Israeli-Arab normalization.
2025年秋季，威特科夫和库什纳这对搭档的影响力达到了顶峰：他们负责监督加沙地带的停火协议，并参与了与俄罗斯关于乌克兰问题的谈判。然而，他们既未能稳定当地的停火局势，也没有从俄罗斯方面获得任何让步。
The Witkoff-Kushner duo reached the height of their influence in the fall of 2025, overseeing both the ceasefire declared in Gaza in October and negotiations with Russia over Ukraine. Yet, the pair failed to stabilize the truce in the Palestinian enclave and did not obtain any concessions from the Kremlin.
在2026年2月于阿曼苏丹国主持下与伊朗举行的谈判中，维特科夫（Witkoff）和库什纳（Kushner）的业余素养表现得十分明显。美国和以色列对伊朗发动的这场前所未有的军事攻势使得维特科夫和库什纳完全失去了主导谈判的能力。4月时，副总统J.D.万斯（JD Vance）接手了在巴基斯坦与伊朗的谈判工作，但谈判仅进行了24小时便以失败告终。
'Neither war nor peace' Witkoff and Kushner's amateurism became glaring during talks with Iran, held in February 2026 under the auspices of the Sultanate of Oman. The unprecedented offensive launched by the US and Israel against Iran pushed Witkoff and Kushner to the sidelines. Vice President JD Vance took over responsibility for discussions with Iran in Pakistan in April, but the talks broke down after just 24 hours. You have 62.98% of this article left to read.
