特朗普拒绝承诺不拆除肯尼迪中心。本周早些时候，肯尼迪中心执行董事向该中心员工发送的一封电子邮件称，该建筑将“继续临时关闭”，等待正在进行的安全性评估。
Trump refused to commit to not demolishing the Kennedy Center. An email sent to Kennedy Center staff earlier this week by the center's executive director says the building will "remain temporarily closed" pending an ongoing safety assessment.
这封电子邮件是于周三发送的，美国广播公司新闻频道（ABC News）获取了该邮件。中心的执行董事兼首席运营官马特·弗洛卡（Matt Floca）在信中没有透露该建筑将在近期重新开放的任何迹象。此前，在一名联邦法官裁决阻止特朗普的名字出现在该建筑外墙上之后，与美国总统唐纳德·特朗普立场一致的肯尼迪中心董事会上个月投票决定将其关闭进行翻修。
In the email, sent on Wednesday and obtained by ABC News, the center’s executive director and chief operating officer, Matt Floca, gave no indication that the building will be reopening anytime soon after the President Donald Trump-aligned Kennedy Center board voted last month to close it for renovations after a federal judge's ruling blocked Trump's name from appearing on the outside of the building. Floca said no one can access the building's grand hallways without permission and a hard hat, pointing to an ongoing "emergency egress assessment" of the building's overhanging soffits -- the underside of the building's distinctive overhanging roof.
弗洛卡表示，未经许可并佩戴安全帽，任何人不得进入该建筑的大走廊，他指出目前正在对该建筑突出的顶棚（即该建筑标志性外悬屋顶的底面）进行一项“紧急疏散通道评估”。
Floca said that the ongoing assessment will "determine whether, and under what conditions, the building can safely support occupants and be evacuated," given that certain exits would be blocked during soffit repairs.
弗洛卡表示，鉴于在修缮顶棚期间某些出口会被封锁，正在进行的评估将“确定该建筑在何种条件下能够安全地容纳人员并进行疏散”。
"We currently expect the assessment to be completed within the next one to two weeks and will share an update when it is complete, or sooner if the expected timing changes,” Floca wrote in the email.
弗洛卡在邮件中写道：“我们目前预计评估将在未来一到两周内完成，一旦完成我们将分享最新进展，如果预计时间有变会更早通知。这是一个评估时间表，而不是重新开放的日期。即时的安全性判定与更广泛的翻修计划的范围和时间表是两回事。”
"This is an assessment timeline, not a reopening date. The immediate safety determination is separate from the scope and schedule of the broader renovation program."
弗洛卡表示，该建筑的主走廊——州长大厅（Hall of States）、国家大厅（Hall of Nations）和大门厅（Grand Foyer）——依然禁止进入，进入“需要明确授权并遵守所有规定的安全控制措施，包括佩戴安全帽以及任何其他要求的个人防护装备”。弗洛卡指出，佩戴此类安全装备“本身并不构成进入的许可”。
Floca said the main corridors of the building -- the Hall of States, Hall of Nations and Grand Foyer -- remain off limits, and that entry "requires express authorization and compliance with all prescribed safety controls, including hard hats and any other required personal protective equipment." Wearing such safety equipment "does not, by itself, authorize entry," Floca noted.
美国地方法官克里斯托弗·库珀要求该中心必须在周五之前提供关于关闭计划的最新进展报告。预计弗洛卡会向法官提交他在周三通过电子邮件提供的信息，这些信息最初由NBC新闻报道。
U.S. District Judge Christopher Cooper ordered an update on the center's closure by Friday, and Floca is expected to provide the judge with the same information he put in his Wednesday email, which was first reported by NBC News.
弗洛卡在上周提交的法庭文件中指出了该建筑内部存在的多处“已知安全隐患”，以及建筑周围檐口处的腐蚀问题。
Floca, in a court filing last week, cited several "documented hazards" within the building as well as corrosion on the soffits around it.
今年5月，库珀曾发布命令，禁止该中心按原计划进行为期两年的翻新工程。他认为，该委员会在3月份投票决定关闭该中心时，未能充分评估这一决定对该中心财务状况及日常运营的影响。
In May, Cooper issued an order blocking the planned two-year closure of the center for renovations, saying the board had not properly weighed the impact of the closure on the center’s finances and programming when it voted on the plan in March.
此后，美国司法部要求法官撤销该禁令，以便翻新工作能够继续进行。不过，库珀尚未对这一请求作出裁决。
The Justice Department has since asked the judge to dissolve that order so planned renovations can proceed. However, Cooper has yet to rule on that motion.
特朗普对法官禁止该委员会在建筑上重新使用其名字的命令提出了上诉。
Trump has appealed the judge's order that the board cannot re-add Trump's name to the building.
在周四接受《时代》杂志采访时，特朗普表示他愿意拯救肯尼迪中心，但他认为该中心的状况“非常糟糕”，并称他的政府应该因介入该中心的翻新工作而受到认可。他还拒绝承诺在未经国会同意的情况下不会拆除这座表演艺术中心。
In a TIME magazine interview out Thursday, Trump said he would be willing to save the Kennedy Center, but that it's in "terrible, terrible shape," adding that his administration should be recognized for stepping in to renovate. He also refused to commit to not demolishing the performing arts center without the consent of Congress.
特朗普对《时代》杂志说：“我什么都不承诺。我们只能等着法庭的裁决结果吧。”
"I'm not committing to anything," Trump told TIME. "We're going to see how it plays out in court."
