华盛顿，10月8日——美国总统唐纳德·特朗普周四表示，美国正与伊朗进行富有成效的讨论，并将在十一月的美国中期国会选举前不对该国发动攻击。
WASHINGTON, Oct 8 - US President Donald Trump said on Thursday the United States is having productive discussions with Iran and will not launch an attack on the country before US midterm congressional elections in November.
“我们正与伊朗伊斯兰共和国进行富有成效的讨论，”特朗普在Truth Social上发布的帖子中写道。他说，美国对伊朗港口的封锁仍在生效，石油仍通过霍尔木兹海峡流动。
"We are having productive discussions with the Islamic Republic of Iran," Trump wrote in a post on Truth Social. He said the US blockade of Iranian ports remains in effect and that oil is flowing through the Strait of Hormuz.
“我们不会在美国11月3日举行的中期选举之前的任何时间攻击伊朗，”特朗普说。
"We will not be attacking Iran at any time prior to the Midterm Elections to be held in the United States on November 3rd," Trump said.
美国和以色列在二月份对伊朗发动了打击，战争——以及每月30亿美元的费用——已成为美国竞选活动的关键议题。
The United States and Israel launched strikes on Iran in February and the war — and its $3 billion monthly price tag — has become a key issue on the US campaign trail.
特朗普一再表示，他预计选举后油价会大幅下跌，但高油价和伊朗战争正严重影响共和党候选人，并威胁他们的国会多数席位。
Trump has repeatedly said he expected oil prices to drop sharply after the elections, but high gas prices and the Iran war are weighing heavily on Republican candidates and threatening their congressional majority.
伊朗和美国最近几周交换了旨在结束战争并重新开放霍尔木兹海峡——这一全球能源运输要道——的提议。特朗普拒绝了德黑兰的最新提议。
Iran and the US have exchanged proposals in recent weeks aimed at ending the war and reopening the Strait of Hormuz, a vital global energy shipping route. Trump rejected Tehran's latest offer.
