美国国务卿马可·鲁比奥周一晚间在接受福克斯新闻采访时表示，一个外国势力卷入了周日针对英国RAF费尔福德空军基地的未遂炸弹阴谋。鲁比奥拒绝明确具体是哪个外国势力。
US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said that a foreign actor was involved in a foiled bomb plot targeting the UK's RAF Fairford airbase on Sunday, in an interview with Fox News on Monday night. Rubio declined to clarify exactly which foreign actor was involved.
鲁比奥说：“足以说明的是，上周末在英国发生、几乎发生以及可能发生的情况是一个非常严重的局势。这显然涉及外国势力的插手。”此外，他表示伊朗“公开威胁要攻击美国在全球的利益。我们将始终非常严肃地对待这一点。如果这种情况发生甚至被尝试，都将产生后果。”
"Suffice it to say that what happened, what almost happened, what could have happened in the UK over the weekend is a very serious situation. It's one that clearly involves the hands of a foreign actor," Rubio said. Separately, he stated that Iran had "openly threatened to attack American interests globally. We're going to always take that very seriously. There will be repercussions for that if it ever were to happen or even attempted."
费尔福德空军基地由美国和英国部队共同使用，美国曾利用该基地对伊朗发动袭击。
The Fairford airbase is used by both US and UK forces and was used by the US to launch attacks on Iran.
鲁比奥还表示，许多人对与阴谋有关的五名嫌疑人被保释的消息感到“不安”。特朗普表示美国不会释放嫌疑人。
美国总统唐纳德·特朗普周一对记者表示，他对英国释放嫌疑人感到“惊讶”，并称美国不会释放他们。
Rubio also said that many were "disturbed" by the news that the five suspects arrested in connection with the plot were released on bail. Trump says US would not have released suspectsUS President Donald Trump said that he was "surprised" that the UK had released the suspects, saying that the US would not have released them while speaking to reporters on Monday.
当被问及该事件是否与伊朗有关时，特朗普说“可能有关”，但他不会进一步澄清。他说：“我知道答案。我可以非常具体。但我宁愿不说。但我不会释放他们。”鲁比奥承诺：“未来几天会有更多相关新闻公布。
When asked if the incident was connected to Iran, Trump said that it "might be," but that he would not clarify further."I know the answer. I can be very specific. But I'd rather not say. But I would not have released them," he said." There's a lot more news that will come out on this in the days to come," Rubio promised.
但现阶段我能说的就这么多，除了这是一件非常严重的事情，并且得到了适当的应对。”
"But there's only so much I can say right now at this point about it, other than this is a very serious thing. And it was responded to appropriately."
