克里姆林宫周二表示，若北约真的在立陶宛部署军事基地或核武器，俄罗斯势必会将其视为导致局势紧张升级的举措。
The Kremlin said on Tuesday that the potential deployment of a NATO military base or nuclear weapons in Lithuania would inevitably be seen by Russia as a step toward raising tensions.
针对立陶宛议会投票决定推进宪法修正案以取消在该国领土上部署核武器的禁令一事，克里姆林宫发言人德米特里·佩斯科夫在新闻发布会上指出，这一举动只能被视作“加剧紧张局势的手段”。佩斯科夫称：“上述举措均无助于维护欧洲大陆的稳定与可预见性。恰恰相反——令人遗憾的是——它们将标志着紧张局势的又一次显著升级。”
Commenting on a vote by Lithuania’s parliament to advance a constitutional amendment that would remove a ban on deploying nuclear weapons on the country’s territory, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told a press briefing that the move cannot be viewed as “anything other than a step toward escalating tensions.”“Neither of these moves will contribute to stability and predictability on the European continent. On the contrary – and to our regret – they will mark yet another significant escalation of tensions,” Peskov said.
他还补充道，俄罗斯因此将不得不采取“一切必要措施来保障自身安全”。此次表态正值立陶宛议会于周二早些时候投票决定推进上述宪法修正案之际。
He added that Russia will, consequently, be compelled to take “all necessary measures to guarantee its own security.”The remarks come as the Lithuanian parliament, the Seimas, voted earlier Tuesday to advance a constitutional amendment that would remove a ban on the deployment of nuclear weapons on the country’s territory.
据立陶宛公共广播公司LRT报道，该修正案已通过一读，共有106名议员投下赞成票；最终表决预计将于1月12日举行。
According to public broadcaster LRT, the amendment passed its first reading with 106 lawmakers voting in favor, while the final vote for the amendment is scheduled for Jan. 12.
上个月末，立陶宛议会曾就该修正案进行投票，结果以99票赞成、13票反对、5人弃权的结果获得通过。
The parliament conducted a vote late last month on amendment, receiving 99-13, with five abstentions, in favor of the proposal.
佩斯科夫还就美国总统唐纳德·特朗普针对俄罗斯出现肺鼠疫病例一事发表的言论作出回应，称“主动提供援助总是好事”。
Peskov also commented on remarks by US President Donald Trump concerning reports of cases of pneumonic plague in Russia, saying it is always good when mutual assistance is offered.
他表示，俄罗斯消费者权益与公益监督局正在就西伯利亚伊尔库茨克州的疫情情况提供“全面信息”。
He said Russia's public health watchdog Rospotrebnadzor is providing "comprehensive information" on the situation in the country's Siberian region of Irkutsk.
上周，俄罗斯媒体称，罗斯波特雷布纳佐尔将伊尔库茨克地区的卫生和流行病学状况定义为稳定，有报道称一人被诊断出患有“不明病因肺炎”。报道称，已针对此案采取措施，该案涉及西伯利亚和远东伊尔库茨克抗瘟疫研究所的一名员工。该员工已经死亡。
Last week, Russian media outlets said Rospotrebnadzor defined the sanitary and epidemiological situation in the Irkutsk region as stable amid reports of a person being diagnosed of a “pneumonia of unknown etiology.”The reports said measures had been taken in connection with the case, which involved an employee of the Irkutsk Anti-Plague Institute of Siberia and the Far East. The employee has died.
