在法国发表讲话时，这位教皇赞扬了战后统一欧洲的努力。专家将此视为对特朗普总统反复抨击欧洲领导人的批评。
Speaking in France, the pontiff praised postwar efforts to unify the continent. Experts saw it as a critique of President Trump’s repeated berating of European leaders.
周一，利奥十四世发表了一篇长篇颂词，致敬二战以来欧洲统一与民主化的努力。专家将此视为对特朗普政府将欧洲描绘为面临“文明消亡”的广泛反驳。
Leo XIV delivered a lengthy tribute on Monday to efforts to unify and democratize Europe since World War II, in what experts saw as a sweeping riposte to the Trump administration’s characterization of a continent facing “civilizational erasure.”
在法国东北部的梅斯，利奥提出了一种替代愿景，即欧洲将“继续繁荣并激励全世界”。在描述一个“日益野蛮”的世界时，利奥表示，“欧洲可以通过其学会培养的对他人的尊重来帮助打破这一循环”。他还赞扬并引用了欧盟的创立原则，该机构经常受到特朗普的抨击。
In a speech in Metz, in northeastern France, Leo offered an alternative vision of a Europe that would “continue to flourish and to inspire the whole world.”Describing an “increasingly uncivilized” world, Leo said that “Europe can help to break this cycle through the respect for others that it has learned to cultivate.”He also praised and quoted from the founding principles of the European Union, an institution frequently assailed by Mr. Trump.
在为期四天的法国之行的最后一天，教皇做出了一个具有象征意义的选择，在罗伯特·舒曼中心发表演讲。这座会议中心以一位推动战后欧洲国家间合作的法国基督教政治家命名。
On the last day of a four-day trip to France, the pope made a symbolic choice to speak at the Robert Schuman Center, a convention hall named after a Christian French statesman who led efforts to improve postwar cooperation between European nations.
利奥没有点名任何特定领导人或政党，但分析人士认为，他一些尖锐的言论是对特朗普政府的批评。该政府通过抨击北约、欧盟以及丹麦等欧洲盟友，打乱了自二战以来一直主导欧洲联盟秩序的规则。
Leo did not name any particular leader or political party, but analysts read some of his more pointed remarks as critiques of the Trump administration, which — by assailing NATO, the European Union and European allies like Denmark — has scrambled the order that has governed European alliances since World War II.
利奥表示，拥有基督教传统和合作历史的欧洲，可以反击那些蔑视“信守承诺的价值”以及“以谎言和欺骗为荣”的人。
Leo said that Europe, with its Christian heritage and history of cooperation, could push back against those who dismiss “the value of keeping one’s word” and those who “boast of lies and deceit.”
